Abstract
Background: urinary tract infections (UTI) are one of the most common types of bacterial infection in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). There are certain aspects to diabetes that makes it a risk factor for getting urinary tract infection and additionally, diabetes may also predispose to certain complications.
Methodology: in this paper we aim to carry out a systematic review on observational (nonrandomized) studies on PUBMED. Aim: to evaluate the prevalence, pathogenesis, diagnosis, management and complications of UTI in patients with DM. Conclusion: the proper management of UTI in diabetics is crucial, as prompt diagnosis and correct use of antibiotics is vital for treatment. Future research in this regard will hopefully decrease the burden of UTI in diabetic patients.
