Analysis of Microbial Colonization, Including Multidrug-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria, in High-Risk Pregnant Women.

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: Preterm birth (PTB) remains a global challenge in obstetrics and is a leading cause of neonatal morbidity. It is estimated that at least 40% of all PTB are due to intrauterine infections. Given the concerning trend of multidrug resistance and limited resources, especially in gram-negative bacteria, early detection of colonization and risk factors is essential to prevent adverse outcomes. In this study, we analyzed the associations between maternal microbial colonization in pregnancy, particularly considering the prevalence of multidrug-resistant gram-negative (MRGN) and its impact on prenatal pregnancy-related complications. Methods: This retrospective, single-center cohort study consisted of 596 high-risk pregnant women, who were admitted to the hospital between February 2016 and April 2018. Based on their pregnancy complications, which led to admission, three subgroups were considered: non-infection-related (Non-Infected), infection-related (Infected), and Cervical-Insufficient. A total of 1319 swab samples collected from skin, perianal area, and vagina were screened on culture media and were categorized as nonpathogenic, MRGN, pathogenic gram-negative, pathogenic gram-positive bacteria, and unicellular organisms, for example, yeast. Statistical analyses included chi-square test. Results: The main findings of this study indicate a low prevalence of MRGN with 2% in each subgroup and an increased occurrence of pathogenic gram-negative bacteria in the perianal area ( Conclusion: Therefore, general screening, including perianal swabs, cannot generally be recommended. Further research is needed to identify additional risk factors for the development of adverse pregnancy and neonatal complications.
