A Study of Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infection in a Tertiary Care Center.

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: "Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs)" represent a significant proportion of healthcare-associated infections, contributing to increased morbidity, hospital stay, and mortality. This research aimed to determine the incidence, risk factors, microbiological profile, and outcomes associated with CAUTI in a tertiary care center. Materials and Methods: A prospective observational research was conducted over 24 months, enrolling 239 patients catheterized for more than 48 hours. Patients were monitored for clinical signs of CAUTI, and urine cultures were obtained for microbiological analysis. Results: The incidence of CAUTI was 31.79%, with a rate of 12 per 1000 catheter days. Advanced age, prolonged catheterization (>7 days), diabetes mellitus, and emergency catheterization were significant risk factors. "Escherichia coli ( Conclusion: Prolonged catheterization, diabetes, and emergency catheter placement are major contributors to CAUTI. Timely catheter removal, strict aseptic techniques, and effective infection control measures are crucial to minimize the burden of CAUTI in hospital settings.
