TL;DR: Three days of antibiotic therapy is similar to 5-10 days in achieving symptomatic cure during uncomplicated UTI treatment, while the longer treatment is more effective in obtaining bacteriological cure.

TL;DR: The results of the study suggest that TREAT can improve the appropriateness of antimicrobial therapy and reduce the cost of side effects in regions with a low prevalence of resistant pathogens, however, at the expense of increased use of antibiotics.

TL;DR: The Treat project uses a probabilistic network to combine clinical signs, symptoms and laboratory results, and the problem of obtaining probabilities for the network is discussed.

TL;DR: A model, which incorporates information about treatment history in the form of information on the success or failure of the current treatment and which combines this with data on cross-resistance to predict the susceptibility to future antibiotic treatments is proposed, thus providing a systematic basis for revision of antibiotic treatment.
