Prevalence and Risk Factors of Urinary Tract Infection in Hospitalized Hip Fracture Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Background Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common complication among hospitalized patients with hip fractures. Several risk factors may increase the likelihood of UTI in this population and can lead to serious complications. This cross-sectional study aims to determine the prevalence of UTI and identify associated risk factors among hospitalized hip fracture patients at a tertiary public hospital in Thailand. Methods We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study of 140 hospitalized patients with hip fractures from April 2016 to March 2025 and analyzed the prevalence of UTIs and associated risk factors. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results UTI occurred in 51 participants (36.4%) of hospitalized hip fracture patients. The mean age in the UTI group was 81.4 years, and UTI was more common in females. Female sex (OR 5.109; 95% CI 1.164 - 22.426), the Osteoporosis Self-Assessment Tool for Asians (OSTA) index ≤ -6 (OR 5.798; 95% CI 1.343 - 25.032), and the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) stage ≥ 2 (OR 8.946; 95% CI 1.477 - 54.178) were significant risk factors. Conclusion UTI was common among hospitalized hip fracture patients. Female sex, OSTA ≤ -6, and eGFR stage ≥ 2 were the main associated risk factors.
