Logistic regression analysis of sample accuracy against control growth result for true-susceptible samples
| Antibiotic | No. of samples susceptible | No. of samples with correct result | Slope (log odds ratio) | SE | P value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ampicillin | 32 | 24 | 4.38 | 1.86 | 0.0186 |
| Gentamicin | 70 | 66 | 3.78 | 1.22 | 0.0020 |
| Cephalothin | 62 | 50 | 5.61 | 1.67 | 0.0008 |
| Ciprofloxacin | 62 | 61 | 1.57 | 1.71 | 0.3604 |
| Nitrofurantoin | 70 | 59 | 2.39 | 0.77 | 0.0018 |
| TMP-SMX | 56 | 47 | 1.89 | 0.75 | 0.0115 |
| Vancomycin | 9 | 6 | 2.00 | 1.64 | 0.2238 |
| Total | 361 | 313 | 2.50a | 0.35a | <0.001 |
The results were obtained by ignoring the antibiotic and pooling all data.
