TABLE 2.
Estimated parameters determined by logistic regression of temporal development of resistance in Acinetobacter spp. on integrated farm B1a
Antimicrobial | Intercept (%) (95% confidence interval)b | Increase in odds per day (95% confidence interval)c |
---|---|---|
Chloramphenicol | 3.7 (0.98-11) | 1.04 (1.02-1.07) |
Ciprofloxacin | 2.4 (0.62-7.1) | 1.07 (1.04-1.10) |
Erythromycin | 2.9 (0.75-9.0) | 1.05 (1.03-1.07) |
Oxytetracycline | 1.9 (0.37-6.6) | 1.10 (1.07-1.15) |
Sulfamethoxazole | 0.9 (0.12-3.7) | 1.11 (1.08-1.17) |
Trimethoprim | 4.6 (1.0-15) | 1.03 (1.01-1.05) |
See Fig. 2.
The intercept is an estimate of the background (or zero time) level of resistance.
The increase in odds per day is the factor that the odds of finding a resistant isolate is multiplied by per day.
