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

Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing One Health challenge in low- and middle-income countries, where inappropriate antimicrobial use across human and animal sectors remains common. In Ethiopia, national AMR strategies and One Health frameworks exist, but evidence remains limited on how knowledge, attitudes, and practices shape antimicrobial-use behaviors across community and animal health settings. Methods: We conducted a convergent parallel mixed-methods study from June to November 2024 in Addis Ababa, Oromia, and Afar, Ethiopia. Quantitative data were collected using structured knowledge, attitude, and practice surveys among household respondents Results: Households had moderate knowledge Conclusions: AMR-related practices in Ethiopia are shaped by attitudes, professional and household contexts, and structural constraints, rather than knowledge alone. Interventions should move beyond information provision to address risk perception, social norms, affordability, diagnostic access, regulatory enforcement, and stewardship support. Strengthened One Health coordination across human and animal sectors is essential to translate Ethiopia's AMR policies into effective practice.
