Restricting the use of antibiotics in food-producing animals and its associations with antibiotic resistance in food-producing animals and human beings a systematic review and meta-analysis

Background Antibiotic use in human medicine, veterinary medicine, and agriculture has been linked to the rise of antibiotic resistance globally. We did a systematic review and meta-analysis to summarise the effect that interventions to redu ...
