Objective:To explore the risk factors and etiological characteristics of urinary tract infection caused by urinary calculi in eastern Fujian region,in order to attract clinical attention and improve the prevention and treatment of urinary tract infection caused by urinary calculi.Method:A total of 154 patients with urinary calculi admitted to Ningde People ''s Hospital (n=80) and Ningde Mindong Hospital (n=74) from November 2022 to October 2023 were selected as the main research objects.According to whether the patients had urinary tract infection, they were divided into infection group and non-infection group. The baseline data of the two groups were analyzed in detail, and the risk factors and pathogen distribution of urinary tract infection in patients with urinary calculi were analyzed.Result:There were 33 cases of urinary tract infection in 154 patients with urinary calculi, accounting for 21.43%.Univariate analysis showed that the urinary white blood cell count in the infection group was higher than that in the non-infection group,and the proportion of patients with effusion, urinary tract obstruction,calculi in the upper urinary tract, staghorn calculi, smoking history, diabetes,and urinary nitrite positive was higher than that in the uninfected group(P<0.05)..The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that effusion, urinary tract obstruction, staghorn calculi, smoking history, diabetes, high urine white blood cell count and positive urine nitrite were independent risk factors for urinary tract infection in patients with urinary calculi (OR>1,P<0.05). A total of 33 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated from 33 patients in the infection group. Among them,23 strains(69.70%) were gram-negative bacteria,8 strains (24.24%) were gram-positive bacteria, and 2 strains (6.06%) were fungi.Among gram-negative bacteria, escherichia coli accounted for the highest proportion (48.48%), followed by klebsiella pneumoniae (9.09%).Among gram-positive bacteria,enterococcus faecalis accounted for the highest proportion (12.12%),followed by enterococcus faecium (6.06%).Candida and candida tropicalis in fungi was the same,accounted for 3.03 %.Conclusion:The risk of urinary tract infection in patients with urinary calculi in eastern Fujian region is high. Effusion, urinary tract obstruction, staghorn calculi, smoking history, diabetes, high urine white blood cell count and positive urine nitrite are independent risk factors for urinary tract infection in patients with urinary calculi.The main urinary tract pathogens are gram-negative bacteria. |
