Urinary tract infections in children: clinical and antimicrobial resistance data from Bucharest area, Romania.
Article in Germs, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
introductionUrinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common bacterial diseases of childhood with an increased frequency in infants and young children.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective study of children diagnosed with UTI in the Alessandrescu-Rusescu National Institute for Mother and Child Health, Bucharest, Romania between January 2017 and December 2019. We evaluated the patients' clinical characteristics, laboratory parameters and the resistance profile of the identified uropathogens.
resultsA total of 264 children were included in the analysis. Females (71.6%, n=186) and infants (52.7%, n=139) were more commonly affected. The recurrence rate was 27.7% and was positively associated with the presence of renal malformations. Age under 1-year, increased leukocyte and neutrophil counts, and elevated C-reactive protein were associated with hospitalization.
conclusionsWe identified an increased resistance of uropathogens to antimicrobials commonly used in children. Reporting antimicrobial resistance from real-world clinical practice is necessary for accurate mapping and continuous updating of initial treatment recommendations until antibiogram results are received. In Romania and other countries, extensive studies are needed to follow up uropathogen resistance in both children and adults.
