NABAIGW, Barbara I.; MWAMBI, Bashir; OKIRIA, John e OYET, Caesar. Common uropathogens among diabetic patients with urinary tract infection at Jinja Regional Referral Hospital, Uganda. Afr. J. Lab. Med. [online]. 2018, vol.7, n.1, pp.1-3. ISSN 2225-2010. http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/ajlm.v7i1.621.
Between June 2015 and October 2015, 159 mid-stream urine samples from diabetic patients were cultured. The prevalence of urinary tract infection was high at 22% and women were more affected compared with men (P = 0.017). Factors associated with urinary tract infection in these patients were age, sex and high blood glucose levels. Diabetic patients should be screened periodically for urinary tract infection.
