Risk factors and interventions for post-percutaneous nephrolithotomy urinary tract infection in diabetic patients with renal calculi.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 investigate risk factors and interventions for post-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) urinary tract infection (UTI) in patients with renal calculi and diabetes mellitus (DM).
methodsClinical data of 210 DM patients with renal calculi who underwent PCNL at Hu Zhou Central Hospital between January 2018 and October 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into infection and non-infection groups based on post-PCNL UTI occurrence. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses was performed to identify risk factors. Negative emotions (Self-Rating Anxiety/Depression Scale [SAS]/[SDS]), pain intensity (Visual Analogue Scale [VAS]), sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index [PSQI]), and quality of life level (Short-Form 36-Item Health Survey [SF-36]) were also assessed.
resultsAmong the 210 patients, 33 (15.71%) developed post-PCNL UTI, with 27 (67.50%) Gram-negative bacterial strains identified. Univariate analysis revealed that age, operation time (OT), number of renal calculi, fasting blood glucose (FBG), and preoperative UTI were significantly associated with post-PCNL UTI. Multivariate analysis identified age ≥60 years (P=0.001), OT ≥90 min (P=0.031), FBG ≥10 mmol/L (P<0.001), and preoperative UTI (P=0.013) as independent risk factors. Patients with UTI exhibited significantly higher SAS, SDS, VAS, and PSQI scores, along with lower SF-36 scores compared to non-infected patients.
conclusionsAge ≥60 years, OT ≥90 min, FBG ≥10 mmol/L, and preoperative UTI are risk factors for post-PCNL UTI. Patients with these risk factors require enhanced perioperative nursing and targeted preventive measures. Furthermore, tailored interventions should be implemented to address their negative emotions, pain, sleep quality, and quality of life.
