Table 3. Odds ratios, confidence intervals, and P values calculated for independent variables included in a logistic regression model using air samples collected in the United States (n = 1894) to explain whether a sample grew A. fumigatus.
Significant results (P ≤ 0.05) are highlighted in bold.
| Independent variable | Odds ratio (95% CI) | Pr(>|z|) |
|---|---|---|
| Sampling round | ||
| Summer (baseline) | ||
| Autumn | 0.75 (0.57–0.99) | 0.05 |
| Winter | 0.94 (0.57–1.57) | 0.82 |
| Spring | 0.53 (0.37–0.75) | <0.01 |
| Maximum daily temperature at sampling location on sampling date | 1.04 (0.99–1.09) | 0.13 |
| Proximity of sampling location to the nearest OW/OA composting facility | 0.99 (0.99–0.99) | <0.01 |
