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

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) in the second half of pregnancy, identify causative microorganisms, and assess their antimicrobial resistance and multidrug resistance (MDR) patterns in Kırşehir, Türkiye. Materials and Methods: Between April-December 2024, 182 pregnant women without urinary tract infection symptoms were screened at Kırşehir Training and Research Hospital. Midstream urine samples were cultured, and bacterial isolates were identified and tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using the BD Phoenix™ automated system. Data were interpreted according to EUCAST 2024 criteria. Results: ASB prevalence was 37.36%. Conclusion: ASB prevalence during second half of pregnancy was high, and a significant proportion of pathogens demonstrated MDR. The findings highlight the necessity of culture-based diagnosis and region-specific empirical therapy. High resistance to ampicillin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole suggests that empirical protocols should be updated according to local antibiograms. Strengthening antibiotic stewardship and expanding routine ASB screening are critical to reducing maternal-fetal complications.
