The study's results are similar to what other studies have found.
“These results are similar to what other studies have found [15,16].”
Walker and colleagues found significantly fewer patients receiving overall antimicrobials (acyclovir, vancomycin, ampicillin) but no significant decreases in duration except ampicillin days of therapy.
“Another pre-post study performed by Walker and colleagues showed significantly fewer patients receiving overall antimicrobials such as acyclovir, vancomycin, and ampicillin, but there were not significant decreases in duration except for in the ampicillin days of therapy [16].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
