Group B Streptococcus Screening and Treatment Adherence in Pregnancy: A Retrospective Cohort Study and Opportunities for Improvement.
Article in AJPM focus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Introduction: Pregnancy is a time of increased healthcare screening, and past adherence to evolving guidelines informs best practices. Although studies of Group B Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study. Demographic and clinical information were extracted from all prenatal care and delivery patients at a single institution in a single year. Vancomycin prescriptions in pregnancy were tracked for 10 years to determine long-term adherence. Results: Adherence occurred in 89% (1,610/1,810) of patients. Reasons for deviations from guidelines could not always be determined. There was no significant difference in maternal age, race, prenatal provider type, provider type at delivery, gestational age at delivery, delivery mode, or whether antibiotic sensitivities were performed between compliant and noncompliant groups. Significant differences in adherence were found between obstetric clinics (high-risk obstetrics clinic, maternal‒fetal medicine fellows clinic, continuity of care clinic, and faculty private clinic) ( Conclusions: High rates of adherence to Group B
