For the purpose of this table, systemic involvement was defined as the presence of fever and/or rigors in the criteria for diagnosis of complicated UTI.
Abbreviations: BPH, benign prostatic hyperplasia; UTI, urinary tract infection.
Host factors were specified in 12 studies; this was used as the denominator for the proportions.
