The antibiotic procurement saga: a long-neglected stewardship target to combat antimicrobial resistance in Pakistan by Shairyar Afzal, Mishal Bajwa, Nabeel Ahmed, Jawaria Jabeen, Mian Shahzeb Haroon, Rana Muhammad Zahid Mushtaq, Zikria Saleem

“…Results The study identified five central themes: (1) The state of antibiotic use in hospitals is characterized by a lack of antibiotic use policy, resulting in mostly empirical and irrational prescribing practices. (2) Medicine availability significantly influences prescribing decisions, often taking precedence over clinical needs. (3) The procurement process, although structured, is flawed owing to rigid adherence to the Standard Medicine List (SML). (4) Rationality in procurement is compromised by disregard for AMR, with decisions driven more by cost and demand than clinical evidence. (5) The clinical acumen of pharmacists is underutilized in procurement due to multifarious barriers. …”

Niches and community stability of dominant herbaceous species in the forest and creek ecotone of Dehang Geopark by LONG Ziyu, WANG Zhicheng, ZHAO Rui, LIU Bing, CHEN Gongxi

“…This indicates that the interspecific competition among dominant species in the herbaceous communities of the forest and creek ecotone is weak, and there is not a high degree of similarity in the demand for environmental resources. (2) The overall and interspecific associations of the herbaceous plants in the three streams are mainly characterized by non-significant negative connections, with relatively low interspecific connectivity, and are mostly independently distributed. (3) The community is currently in an unstable state, and the succession and development of the herbaceous community are influenced by both internal and external factors of the community. …”
