  • Title: [Bacteriuria--findings in diabetics].
    Author: Schauer VJ, Tauchnitz C, Dadaliaris D.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1975 Feb 01; 30(3):95-9. PubMed ID: 1226932.
    Abstract:
    The frequency of bacteriuria in 2.058 unselected diabetics obtained with the help of microscopic slides was 9.67%. Here women (n=1,325) with 13.5% have an essentially higher share of constant bacteriuria (number of germs more than 10(5)/ml) than men (n=733) with 2.4%. In very old men older than 75 years a clear increase to 14.6% could be proved. A relation between duration of diabetes and frequency of bacteriuria could not be ascertained. On the other hand there existed a dependence on the form of therapy of diabetes. A constant bacteriuria was present in dietetically led diabetics at 7.3%, in those persons treated with oral antidiabetics at 10.2%, in diabetics treated with insulin at 13.8%. The slide culture is clearly superior to the hitherto still used bacteriological and biochemical methods and is recommended particularly for screening tests.
