Designing an antimicrobial stewardship curriculum for nurses to strengthen knowledge and clinical practice.
Article in BMC medical education, 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
backgroundAntimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a public health threat. Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) provides a promising solution to mitigate AMR risk. Despite the recognition of AMS interventions, educational curricula tailored to nurses are scarce. This study aimed to develop an evidence-based nursing AMS curriculum.
methodsA descriptive design study used combined approach to guide the development of an AMS curriculum for nurses working at the Ministry of National Guard Health Affairs using Kern's six-step framework and shared governance model. We have provided the detailed steps and collaborative approach used to develop the curriculum from inception to implementation.
resultsOur curriculum comprises 12 topics delivered in a nursing AMS course. The course was designed following AMS evidence-based practices and recommendations, with the aim of improving nurses' engagement in AMS.
conclusionApplying Kern-six steps framework in combination with a shared governance model, and supported by interdepartmental collaboration was instrumental in the development of the nursing AMS curriculum and facilitated joint ownership, shared decision-making, and effective implementation of the course. The curriculum addressed the identified educational needs and gaps in current nursing practice at Ministry of National Guard Health Affairs and created opportunities for future AMS collaboration initiatives with nursing department, However, further evaluation is required to assess its impact on nurses' knowledge, competencies, and learning outcomes.
