We studied the relationship between group B streptococcal colonization and preterm delivery.
In this prospective study at a single hospital in Odense, Denmark, cervicovaginal cultures were obtained at < or = 24 weeks' gestation from all the women, at delivery from women with preterm deliveries, and from a random sample of women delivering at term.
In 2846 singleton births, there was no significant association between group B streptococcal colonization at <or = 24 weeks' gestation and preterm birth. After adjustment for the risk factors for preterm delivery, more women with preterm delivery (12/84, 14%) were colonized at delivery with group B streptococci than women with term deliveries (22/300, 7%; adjusted odds ratio, 3.0; 95% confidence interval, 1.4-6.8). Group B streptococcal colonization at < or = 24 weeks' gestation and at delivery was significantly less likely to occur in the presence of normal vaginal flora.
Group B streptococcal colonization at delivery, but not at < or = 24 weeks' gestation, was associated with preterm delivery.
我们研究了B族链球菌定植与早产之间的关系。
在丹麦欧登塞市一家医院进行的这项前瞻性研究中,在妊娠≤24周时对所有女性进行宫颈阴道培养,对早产女性在分娩时进行培养,并从足月分娩的女性中随机抽取样本进行培养。
在2846例单胎分娩中,妊娠≤24周时B族链球菌定植与早产之间无显著关联。在对早产风险因素进行调整后,早产女性中分娩时B族链球菌定植的比例(12/84,14%)高于足月分娩女性(22/300,7%;校正优势比为3.0;95%置信区间为1.4 - 6.8)。在存在正常阴道菌群的情况下,妊娠≤24周时和分娩时B族链球菌定植的可能性显著降低。
分娩时而非妊娠≤24周时的B族链球菌定植与早产有关。
