Risk factors for non-Escherichia coli community-acquired bacteriuria.
Article in Infection, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
purposeUrinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common bacterial infections, with Escherichia coli causing up to 80 % of community-acquired bacteriuria (CA-Bu). The epidemiology and pathogenesis of E. coli have been intensively studied, yet, less is known about risk factors for CA-Bu due to other uropathogens. The purpose of this study was to clarify the latest knowledge.
methodsA clinical epidemiological study among adult ambulatory patients was conducted. During November 2009, all urine cultures sent to our Microbiology Laboratory were evaluated, including demographic characteristics of the patients, underlying diseases and antibiotic treatment. Data were analysed by the SPSS statistical package.
resultsDuring the study period, 4,653 cultures were sent for evaluation. Of the 1,047 (22.5 %) that were positive, 838 were included in the study; 82.5 % were from females. E. coli was the most common pathogen, comprising 58.6 % of all positive cultures. By multivariate analysis, five independent risk factors were associated with non-E. coli CA-Bu: presence of foreign body in the urinary tract [odds ratio (OR) 5.8], nitrite urine test negative (OR 3.2), male gender (OR 2.5), normal erythrocyte count in urine test (OR 1.5) and recurrent UTI in the past year (OR 1.5).
conclusionsFor adult outpatients presenting with CA-Bu, five independent factors suggesting the involvement of uropathogens other than E. coli were identified. These should be taken into consideration when empiric antibiotic treatment is prescribed.
