a

Failure instead of success for MIC.

b

Success instead of failure for MIC.

c

The P value refers to the significance of the split value.

d

Outcome: eradication at end of treatment of the microorganisms cultured at baseline.

e

In 2-fold dilution series.

f

Alternative split.

g

Outcome: positive or negative culture at end of treatment.
