It is a major risk factor for neonatal babies, seriously threatening their lives. In the present study, we aimed to detect the GBS colonization in late pregnant women, and to study the effect of GBS on maternal and infants\u2019 prognosis. Pregnant women with a gestational age of 35\u201337 weeks were enrolled in the study. Real-time polymerase chain-reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the colonization of GBS in the vaginal and rectal secretions for late pregnant women according to the screening guidelines. Chi-square test was applied to analyze the relationship between GBS colonization and clinical characteristics. A follow-up of 6 weeks was performed on the puerpera and infants after delivery. The positive rate of GBS was 12.6% in late pregnant women. GBS carrier state was positively related to several pregnancy outcomes, including intrauterine infection, premature rupture of membranes, postpartum hemorrhage, fetal distress and puerperal infection, as well as to part neonatal outcomes, containing neonatal infection, neonatal pneumonia and neonatal sepsis (all P &amp;lt; 0.05). GBS infection in late pregnant women results in adverse effects on maternal and neonatal outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1042\/bsr20191575","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,12,10]],"date-time":"2019-12-10T04:03:15Z","timestamp":1575950595000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1042\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["The effect of group B streptococcus on maternal and infants\u2019 prognosis in Guizhou, China"],"prefix":"10.1042","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Wei","family":"Dai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics, Guizhou People\u2019s Hospital, Guiyang 550002, Guizhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Youcheng","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics, Guizhou People\u2019s Hospital, Guiyang 550002, Guizhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5077-3285","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yin","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics, Guizhou People\u2019s Hospital, Guiyang 550002, Guizhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mingjuan","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics, Guizhou People\u2019s Hospital, Guiyang 550002, Guizhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiaotin","family":"Rong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics, Guizhou People\u2019s Hospital, Guiyang 550002, Guizhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qing","family":"Zhong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics, Guizhou People\u2019s Hospital, Guiyang 550002, Guizhou, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"288","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,12,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021111619553379900_B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"152","DOI":"10.1016\/j.wombi.2012.10.004","article-title":"Assisting women to make informed choices about screening for Group B Streptococcus in pregnancy: a critical review of the evidence","volume":"26","author":"Sheehy","year":"2013","journal-title":"Women Birth"},{"key":"2021111619553379900_B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"51","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(98)07128-1","article-title":"Group B streptococcus","volume":"353","author":"Schuchat","year":"1999","journal-title":"Lancet"},{"key":"2021111619553379900_B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"919","DOI":"10.1016\/S0022-3476(73)80524-4","article-title":"Transmission of group B streptococci among parturient women and their neonates","volume":"83","author":"Baker","year":"1973","journal-title":"J.
