Emphysematous Urinary Tract Infections in Regional Australia: Retrospective Review of Risk Factors, Microbiology, Management and Outcomes from 38 Cases.
Article in Research and reports in urology, 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: Emphysematous urinary tract infections (EUTI) are a dangerous and rare complication of urinary tract infection. Recent advances in management have reduced mortality and need for emergency nephrectomy. However, there remains a paucity of data concerning this condition in a regional Australian setting, despite a high observed incidence at our institution. We aimed to evaluate the risk factors, microbiological profile, clinical management, and outcomes of emphysematous urinary infections in our center. Methods: A retrospective review of all patients diagnosed with EUTI in a single regional hospital over a 5-year period in rural Australia. Results: Thirty-eight cases of EUTI were identified. Diabetes (76%) and female gender (79%) were common risk factors. Conclusion: Our retrospective study of EUTI provides the first Australian data regarding this rare disease, particularly in a regional setting. Despite high rates of antimicrobial resistance, a low mortality rate was achieved using a nephron-sparing approach.
