Urinary tract infection, antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of isolates, and associated factors among women with a post-fistula at public health facilities, Harar, eastern Ethiopia: A cross-sectional study.
Article in SAGE open medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 infection remains one of the major public health problems among post-fistula patients worldwide, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Besides, antimicrobial resistance impedes the effective infection prevention and treatment of ever-increasing bacteria. There was a paucity of data on urinary tract infections and the antimicrobial susceptibility profile of bacteria among post-fistula patients.
objectiveTo determine the prevalence, antimicrobial susceptibility pattern, and associated factors of urinary tract infections among women with post-fistula attending public health facilities, Harar, eastern Ethiopia.
methodsAn institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 146 consecutively enrolled women with post-fistula from February 2017 to December 2018. Risk factors were collected using a structured questionnaire. The midstream urine was collected, cultured and bacteria species were identified by using standard culture methods. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was done by the disk diffusion technique. The association between independent and outcome variables was computed by using logistic regression analysis. A
resultsThe prevalence of urinary tract infections was 28.8% (95% confidence interval: 23.4, 33.6).
conclusionGram-negative organisms were the commonest cause of urinary tract infections in women with post-fistula.
