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: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the most critical health concerns of the 21 Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted across four electronic databases: PubMed, Web of Science (WOS), Scopus, and Google Scholar. The search included articles published from January 2015 to September 24, 2024. Search terms covered Results: In Iran, the highest and lowest pooled resistance rates were for penicillin G and vancomycin, respectively. For MRSA, the highest pooled resistance was observed in Iraq and the lowest in Turkey. Vancomycin pooled resistance was also the highest in Iraq. Gentamicin resistance was highest in Yemen and lowest in Cyprus and Kuwait. The highest pooled resistance rates for gentamicin, cotrimoxazole, and ciprofloxacin were all observed in Yemen. Conclusions: Factors contributing to high AMR rates include ineffective antibiotic stewardship, self-medication, prescription errors, inappropriate dosing, and excessive antibiotic use in agriculture. The findings highlight the urgent need for stricter antibiotic regulations, improved stewardship, and public awareness across the Middle East.
