Urinary tract infections after benign cystectomy: Incidence, risk factors, pathogens, and resistance patterns.
Article in Investigative and clinical 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
purposeUrinary tract infections (UTIs) are a known complication after cystectomy, but patients undergoing cystectomy for benign conditions represent an understudied population. This study quantified UTI rates after benign cystectomy (BC) and identified patient factors associated with infection. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe reviewed all patients who underwent BC at our institution from 2012-2025, excluding those treated for malignancy. Cystectomy type and urinary diversion were recorded. UTIs required culture confirmation of >10⁵ colony-forming units and were categorized as occurring either during the immediate postoperative period before discharge or within 90 days after discharge. Demographics and perioperative characteristics were compared between patients with and without UTIs in each time frame.
resultsAmong 183 patients undergoing BC, 27 (14.8%) developed an immediate postoperative UTI, and 35 (19.1%) developed a UTI within 90 days. Sixty patients (32.8%) received postoperative antibiotic prophylaxis (AP). AP was not associated with lower rates of immediate postoperative UTIs, and patients who developed a UTI within 90 days were more likely to have received AP (55.9% vs. 28.1%; p<0.05). Common pathogens included
conclusionsUTIs after BC are common both immediately postoperatively and within 90 days. AP did not reduce early UTIs and were associated with higher 90-day UTI rates. Further investigation is warranted to clarify risk factors and optimize prevention strategies.
