Macrolide-resistance, capsular genotyping and associated factors of group B Streptococci colonized pregnant women in Isfahan, Iran.

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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesGroup B streptococcus (GBS) can cause severe and invasive infections in pregnant women, infants, and adults. This study aimed to investigate the risk factors of GBS colonization in pregnant women and determine the macrolide resistance and capsular type of isolates. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn a cross-sectional study, a total of 200 pregnant women were screened for GBS colonization by phenotypic methods. Antibiotic susceptibility pattern of colonizing isolates and
resultsThe overall prevalence of colonization of participates with GBS was 13.5%. Statistical analysis showed that there was no association between risk factors and colonization with GBS. The highest resistance was observed to erythromycin (44.4%) followed by clindamycin (29.6%), penicillin, ampicillin, and ceftriaxone (18.5%), levofloxacin (11.1%), and 29.6% isolates were multidrug-resistant.
conclusionIn the present study, the prevalence of GBS was in the medium range. Resistance to key antibiotic agents was relatively high. Also, capsular serotype Ib was the predominant serotype, which emphasizes the importance of monitoring the molecular typing of the GBS isolates regularly.
