Prevalence, Clinico-Bacteriological Profile, and Antibiotic Resistance of Symptomatic Urinary Tract Infections in Pregnant Women.

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
Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common complication in pregnancy. The prevalence varies between countries. This research aims at estimating the prevalence, clinico-bacteriological profile, antibiotic resistance, and risk factor analysis of symptomatic UTI in pregnancy. Method: This is a prospective observational study conducted at the Abdullah Bin Omran Hospital, RAK, UAE, from March 2019 to February 2020. All pregnant women attending the antenatal clinic during this period were given a pre-validated questionnaire for the symptoms of UTI. In symptomatic patients, urine was sent for microscopy, culture, and sensitivity. Women were treated for UTI and were followed up for the rest of the pregnancy. Data analysis was performed by SPSS software version 24 using descriptive statistics and comparisons with significance at a p-value of <0.05. Results: The prevalence of symptomatic UTI was 17.9%. E.coli was the commonest isolate followed by Group B streptococcus. The commonest symptom reported was loin pain and the most common risk factor was diabetes. Women with risk factors are significantly more likely to have culture-positive UTIs. Most of the pathogens were sensitive to cefuroxime and benzyl penicillin. Risk of preterm labor was higher. Conclusions: Regular antenatal care and routine urine testing in all visits are recommended for early detection and treatment of UTI.
