1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Enterobacterales poses serious public health, agricultural, and environmental threats. In Southeast Asia, a coordinated "One Health" approach is lacking, and fragmented evidence hampers targeted interventions. This study systematically quantify and analyse AMR prevalence across human, animal, and environmental sectors in Southeast Asia by conducting a meta-analysis of 137 observational studies from 2013 to 2023. We found that Ceftriaxone resistance in E. coli was highest in human samples (49.3%, 95% CI: 37.3-61.3; N = 2,640), followed by environmental (37.1%, 95% CI: 8.4-72.2; N = 288) and animal sources (11.2%, 95% CI: 1.6-27.9; N = 923). In humans, meropenem resistance was 13.0% in K. pneumoniae (95% CI: 2.0-31.3; N = 7,803) and 1.4% in E. coli (95% CI: 0.1-4.4; N = 13,696). Resistance increased over time in human (p = 0.009) and animal sectors (p = 0.004). blaCTX-M and blaTEM were reported across all sectors. This synthesis also highlights a critical evidence gap: most studies focused on Thailand (67) and Vietnam (42). Samples came mostly from animals (62) and humans (59), with limited multi-sector studies. Only one study assessed all four sectors (human, animal, environment, food). Our study reveals an escalating AMR crisis alongside critical research gaps across Southeast Asia. Future efforts must therefore strengthen both integrated surveillance to understand transmission and regional health systems to implement effective One Health action.
