Materials and methodology: The study was a hospital-based Retrospective case control study conducted in 2713 people with Type 2 DM who were tested for UTI at BCMCH hospital Thiruvalla over a period of 6 months.
Observation and conclusion: The study shows that DM patients who took drugs have more chances of getting UTI than people who don't take the drugs, specifically metabolic disturbants.
