Maternal Group B Streptococcal Rectovaginal Colonization after Intrapartum Antibiotic Prophylaxis.

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
Maternal rectovaginal colonization with Group B Streptococcus (GBS) during labor is a prerequisite for neonatal early-onset GBS disease. Intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis (IAP) has been proven to prevent GBS perinatal infection, while there are few studies on the evaluation of the effectiveness of different antibiotic prophylaxis regimens. This study aimed to assess the maternal rectovaginal GBS colonization status after IAP, antimicrobial susceptibility and maternal and neonatal outcomes among women administered different antibiotic prophylaxis regimens. A prospective study was conducted between June 2018 and June 2022. GBS carriers identified at 35-37 weeks of gestation were provided IAP (penicillin, cefazolin or clindamycin) at delivery based on the local protocol for GBS prevention. Rectovaginal samples were obtained from participants again after delivery. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing in GBS isolates was performed using the broth microdilution method. A total of 295 cases were included in this study. In the postpartum re-examination for GBS, the overall negative rectovaginal culture rate was 90.8% (268/295). Women who received cefazolin prophylaxis had the highest negative culture rate (95.2%, 197/207), which was followed by those who received penicillin (80.7%, 67/83) and clindamycin (80.0%, 4/5) (
