1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Both the demographic shift and progress in medicine are resulting in an increasingly longer life expectancy. It is presumed that a mean age of 90 years will be achieved within the next decade in many countries. Thus, geriatric medicine, which is committed to the specific needs of older, often frail and frequently comorbid patients, is becoming increasingly more important. The prevalence of infections of the genitourinary tract increases with age, simultaneously, a critical and conscious use of antibiotics is required in terms of antimicrobial treatment. The intention of the present review is to make the reader aware of the specific characteristics of urinary tract infections and asymptomatic bacteriuria in the older patient population in terms of epidemiology, spectrum of pathogens and resistance as well as the indications for and performance of antimicrobial treatment.
