Education and regular Feedback for Antimicrobial Stewardship in nursing homes: EduFAST study protocol.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: The aging population has led to an increased number of people in nursing homes (NHs). The use of antimicrobials in this setting carries an increased risk of adverse events and interactions, particularly in individuals with advanced age, comorbidities, and polypharmacy. Antimicrobial Stewardship Programs (ASPs) have been shown to reduce the consumption of these drugs, improve prescribing practices, and have a positive ecological impact. However, the implementation of ASPs in NHs remains limited. Objective: To develop and evaluate the impact of EduFAST web platform, which is designed to train professionals, monitor activities and provide ASP teams with periodic feedback and indicators of antimicrobial use and microbial resistance in NHs. Methods: Quasi-experimental, multicenter, before-and-after study. The intervention phase will last 12 months and involves implementing ASP strategies (educational measures, indicator monitoring and periodic feedback) via the EduFAST web platform. Information will be collected on the use of the web platform, user satisfaction, knowledge gained and the number of website visits. To assess the impact of EduFAST's implementation, the following data will be recorded: clinical variables; antimicrobial consumption and prescription profiles; and the incidence of infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria and Conclusion: The aim of this project is to facilitate the implementation and sustainability of ASPs through the development of a national-level website. Wastewater analysis will provide insight into the correlation between antimicrobial consumption, microbial resistance, and the environment from a one-health perspective.
