Seven-year surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in respiratory pathogens at a Ugandan referral hospital: Emerging trends and stewardship priorities.
Article in African journal of thoracic and critical care medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Background: Respiratory tract infections remain a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality. Their management is increasingly complicated by the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), particularly in resource-limited settings such as Uganda. Objectives: To describe the prevalence, distribution and AMR patterns of bacterial pathogens isolated from respiratory tract specimens collected at Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital (MRRH), Uganda, between 2018 and 2024. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 583 bacterial isolates from respiratory specimens collected at MRRH between 2018 and 2024. Data extracted from the WHONET system were analysed using Python to assess pathogen distribution, resistance patterns and multidrug resistance (MDR). Results: Conclusion: The rising prevalence of MDR among respiratory pathogens, particularly Study synopsis:
