Table 1. Comparison of baseline opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) for group B streptococcus (GBS) between risk groups.
Table 2. Comparison of baseline opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) for group B streptococcus (GBS) between risk groups: proportion in each range stratified by the magnitude of OPA titer.
Figure 1. Comparison of baseline opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) titers for group B streptococcus (GBS) between three age groups (upper panel, mean ± standard deviation; lower panel, point distribution): (a) serotype Ia, (b) serotype III, and (c) serotype V. NOTE: the same letters (alphabetical superscripts) indicate non-significant differences between groups based on Tukey’s multiple comparison tests.
