dc.description.abstract | A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common medical condition affecting both genders and
can either present as the symptomatic or asymptomatic type. This study aims to determine
the prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria and the affected gender in Libya. According to
the microbiological examination at Libyan International Medical University Microbiology
Lab which included a comprehensive physical, chemical, morphological examination, and
urine culture. It was concluded that UTIs are mostly caused by Escherichia coli and
Pseudomonas. Further statistical analysis was performed and determined that females are
more affected with UTIs than males with 16.7% significant growth of bacteria in the
samples collected. This data is represented in the various graphs and tables with statistical
analysis proving the significance of the findings. These results are essential in
understanding the epidemiological and etiological status of this disorder amongst the
Libyan population. The findings can guide diagnostic and treatment plans for patients
