Urinary tract infection before and after mid-urethral slings: culture-proven diagnosis and analysis of risk factors.
Article in International urology and nephrology, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesTo study prevalence of UTI in women with SUI before and after mid-urethral slings based on culture-proven diagnosis. MATERIALS AND
methodsClean catch midstream urine samples were collected and sent for agar culture in 150 patients before and on follow-up after mid-urethral slings visit. Degree of agreement between culture-proved UTI and clinically suspected was assessed. In addition, risk factors for UTI were analyzed.
resultsPreoperative culture was positive in 9 (6%) patients, 7 of them were asymptomatic. UTI was primarily diagnosed in 39 (26%) patients suggested by symptoms. No bacterial growth was detected at first postoperative day. There were 6 out of 62 (9.7%) patients who had positive urine cultures at follow-up visits, all of them were symptomatic. Eleven (18%) patients were diagnosed as UTI, based on clinical suspicion.
conclusionIn contrast to UTI before surgery, asymptomatic UTI is unlikely to happen after mid-urethral sling.
