1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeTo identify risk factors for postoperative urinary tract infection (UTI) within 90 days following construction of a urinary diversion, and to assess the association between UTIs and results of renography scans 6-8 weeks postoperatively.

methodsA retrospective review of 612 patients who received a urinary diversion with or without radical cystectomy at Rigshospitalet, Denmark between January 2019 and January 2025. The primary outcome was UTI within 90 days after surgery, defined as presence of relevant symptoms, urine culture ≥ 10,000 CFU, and treatment with antimicrobials. Delayed excretion on Tc-99 m-MAG3 renography was defined as documentation thereof in the medical records by a urologist. Cox regression and multivariable logistic regression were performed to identify risk factors.

resultsA total of 346 UTIs occurred in 242 patients (40%) within 90 days after surgery. Bacteremia was present in 111 (32%) of the UTIs. Cox regression showed that female sex (HR = 1.5), BMI 25-30 kg/m

conclusionPostoperative UTI after urinary diversion is common and often complicated by bacteremia. Several risk factors for UTI within 90 days were identified, with the highest HR for continent diversions. Delayed excretion on renography was associated with occurrence of UTI, indicating that UTI is related to postoperative urine obstruction.
