Abstract :
This study should provide a review focused on
urinary tract infections (UTIs) in elderly patients with
diabetes mellitus and without diabetes and to determine if
UTIs are more complicated and severe in diabetics than
non-diabetics. A common type of infection are urinary
tract infections that can affect people of all ages, but they
are especially common in elderly patients. Elderly
patients with diabetes mellitus are at a higher risk of
developing UTIs compared to elderly patients without
diabetes mellitus. This is because people with diabetes are
more susceptible to infections in general, and UTIs are no
exception. This study showed that urinary tract infections
are highly prevalent, with up to 50% of women
experiencing at least one in their lifetime, especially
women with diabetes mellitus, are at a higher risk of
developing UTIs, which can cause significant morbidity
and mortality, particularly in those with comorbidities.
