NOTE. Data are given as counts (incidence rates per 100,000 person-years), unless otherwise indicated.
Incidence rates (95% confidence intervals) are adjusted for US white 2000 census. There is a quadratic increase in the incidence rate of E. coli bloodstream infection with increasing age (p<0.001).
