Analysis of relevant influencing factors for recurrent urinary tract infections in children: exploring predictive factors and intervention measures.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo analyze the factors influencing recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) in children and explore predictive factors and intervention measures.
methodsData of 158 children with UTIs treated at the Longyan First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from January 2020 to June 2023 were analyzed. Among them, 122 children without recurrent UTIs were included in a non-recurrent group, while the remaining 36 were included in a recurrent group. The quality of life prior to treatment and six weeks after treatment, the immunoglobulin A (IgA) and immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels after treatment, the relationship between the quality of life after six weeks of treatment and the levels of IgA and IgG were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify factors impacting the recurrence of UTIs, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to predict recurrent UTIs based on independent risk factors.
resultsBefore treatment, no notable difference was observed in Short Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36) scores between the non-recurrent group and the recurrent group (P>0.05). After treatment, the SF-36 scores notably increased in the non-recurrent group (P<0.0001), while there was no notable increase in the recurrent group (P>0.05). However, the difference in SF-36 scores after treatment was significant between the two groups (P<0.0001). In addition, there was a significantly positive correlation between IgA levels and quality of life after 6 weeks of treatment (P<0.05). The recurrent group showed significantly lower IgA and IgG levels than the non-recurrent group (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified anemia, urinary system malformation, constipation, decreased IgA level, and decreased IgG level as independent risk factors for recurrent UTIs in children. ROC curves-based analysis of independent risk factors demonstrated that urinary system malformation had a better performance in predicting recurrent UTIs in children than the other four factors.
conclusionUrinary system malformation, constipation, anemia, decreased IgA and IgG levels are all identified as independent risk factors for recurrent UTIs in children, and urinary system malformation is a better predictor for recurrent UTIs in children than the other four factors.
