While waiting for a vaccine: opportunities for optimization of neonatal group B streptococcal (GBS) disease prevention in Israel.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo quantify effects of different strategies for decreasing neonatal early onset GBS sepsis (EOGBS) in Israel. STUDY
designA risk allocation model for EOGBS among infants ≥ 35w was adapted to Israeli data. Effects of strategies for antepartum (APS) and intrapartum (IPS) screening, and intrapartum (IAP) and/or postpartum antibiotic prophylaxis (PAP) were calculated.
resultsEstimated EOGBS attack rates (AR) with APS in 90%, IAP in 90%, may reduce AR to 0.18/1000. A rapid intrapartum test would further decrease AR to 0.16/1000, while reducing IAP from 21.3 to 12.5% of women. For babies with risk factors and GBS+ who do not receive IAP, further risk reduction could be achieved by PAP.
conclusionIAP remains the main intervention to decrease EOGBS. IAP and PAP together may reduce EOGBS present incidence by 40%. Combining rapid intrapartum screening with selective IAP and selective PAP for remaining gaps, would be the most efficient strategy.
