Urinary tract infections in special populations: diabetes, renal transplant, HIV infection, and spinal cord injury.

Some populations have unique considerations relevant to complicated urinary tract infection.

In addition, there is no evidence that treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria leads to improved outcomes.
