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

backgroundUrinary tract infection (UTI) in pregnancy is associated with significant morbidity for both the mother and the foetus. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of UTI, urinary bacterial susceptibility, and resistance patterns among pregnant women with a possible UTI at Rahima Moosa Mother and Child Hospital (RMMCH) in Johannesburg.

methodsIn this retrospective study, we analysed mid-stream urine culture and antibiotic susceptibility data from both inpatients and outpatients of pregnant women who attended RMMCH from January 2017 to December 2017. Data were collected from patients' files and then matched with urine microscopy, sensitivity and culture (MC&S) results from the National Health Laboratory Services (NHLS) data.

resultsUrine microscopy, cultures and sensitivities were performed on 1984 specimens belonging to pregnant women who presented with symptoms and/or signs of a UTI. A total of 333 patients (16.8%) had positive bacterial cultures.
