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: To analyze the pathogen distribution of older type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with urinary tract infection (UTI) and to develop and validate the feasibility of a nomogram risk prediction model for older T2DM patients with UTI. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed clinical data from older patients with T2DM admitted to the Department of Endocrinology of The First People's Hospital of Lianyungang City from December 2023 to December 2024. Random number sequences were generated using R software, and all patients were assigned to the modeling cohort and validation cohorts in a ratio of 7:3 through simple random sampling. We compared baseline features between training and validation sets using appropriate statistical tests. We employed univariate and multivariate logistic regression models to identify factors independently associated with UTI in older patients with T2DM. Subsequently, we developed a nomogram prediction model, which was then validated using the validation group. Four methods of statistics, namely, the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test (H-L test), subjects' work characteristic curve and area under the curve (AUC), calibration curve, and clinical decision curve (DCA), were comprehensively applied to evaluate the model's fit, discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility. Results: Among 521 older patients with T2DM, 82 developed UTI, with an incidence of 15.74%. Logistic regression analyses identified female (odds ratio [OR] = 2.53, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.25-5.12, Conclusion: Establishing this simple, intuitive nomogram prediction model enables the early identification of risk factors in older T2DM patients with UTI. Based on readily accessible clinical variables, this model facilitates early risk stratification and promotes preventive interventions in a timely manner, ultimately reducing UTI incidence in clinical practice. Furthermore, the identified pathogen distribution and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles directly support targeted UTI treatment in this high-risk population, further enhancing the clinical utility of the predictive model and potentially improving patient outcomes.
