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
Introduction: Diabetes mellitus associated with urinary tract infections. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of bacterial infection of urinary tract, assess antimicrobial resistance, and associated factors among asymptomatic diabetic patients attending Felege Hiwot Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Bahir Dar, northwestern Ethiopia. Methods: An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted from January to March 2025 among 248 diabetic patients. Sociodemographic and clinical data were collected using a structured questionnaire. Data were entered into EPI data 3.1 and exported to SPSS v.26. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with bacterial infection of urinary tract, with p < 0.05 considered statistically significant. Results: Of the 248 study participants, 63 (25.4%) had bacterial infection of urinary tract. Gram-negative bacteria predominated, with Conclusion: The findings of this study showed bacterial infection of urinary tract is common among asymptomatic diabetic patients, with a high burden of antimicrobial resistance. Antimicrobial stewardship programs, rational antibiotic use guided by culture and sensitivity testing are essential to reduce infection-related morbidity.
