Bacterial Profiling and Antibiotic Resistance Pattern of Uropathogens Isolated From Adolescent Girls With Bacteriuria: A Cross-Sectional Study.

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 and Aims: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are prevalent among adolescent girls. Therefore, effective promotional campaigns are crucial for conveying accurate information. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and the antimicrobial profiling of the isolated uropathogens among 354 adolescent girls. Methods: This is a cross-sectional research study design. We included a sample of 354 adolescent girls from four preparatory schools. Data was collected in two phases. The first phase used a structured interview questionnaire. The second phase included determining the prevalence of uropathogens among adolescent girls with symptomatic or asymptomatic bacteriuria. Phenotypic identification of isolated species and antimicrobial profiling to determine if there are multiple drug resistance (MDR) patterns. Results: We observed that 28% of adolescent girls were infected with UTIs. The multiple drug resistance (MDR) uropathogens among isolated Gram-negative species were 31.8%. About 20.5% of Conclusion: UTIs are a major health issue among adolescent girls, with a 28% prevalence. The drug resistance rate of Gram-negative isolates was high for ampicillin, as well as Gram-positive isolates; especially MRSA showed high resistance to penicillin. So, we recommend future continuous screening measures for UTIs among adolescent girls in community settings.
