Figure 2.

Horizontal bar chart comparing detection frequency of resistance genes in XDR and non-XDR bacterial isolates. qacEΔ1-sul1 shows significantly higher frequency in XDR (58.3 percent) versus non-XDR (26.8 percent) with P equals 0.011.

Detection frequencies of antimicrobial resistance-associated genes and disinfectant resistance genes among XDR and non-XDR CRPA isolates. The XDR group comprised 24 isolates and the non-XDR group 56 isolates. Comparisons used two-sided Fisher’s exact test with Benjamini–Hochberg correction across the eight comparisons shown. For qacEΔ1-sul1, OR 3.83 (95% CI 1.40–10.45), unadjusted P = 0.011, q = 0.088. CRPA, carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa; XDR, extensively drug-resistant.
