Table 4. Significant temporal and spatial associations to the presence of C. burnetii in PM10, mutually adjusted in the multivariable model.

Variable OR per unit 25%–75% percentiles OR per IQR* 95% CI OR per IQR P-value
Temperature (°C) 0.82 13.83–16.99 0.52 0.37–0.73 <0.001
Humidity (%) 0.96 71.07–83.29 0.60 0.39–0.94 0.024
Number of goats/squared distance 1.26 0.65–3.39 1.89 1.31–2.76 <0.001

Note. Number of goats on farm represents the number of goats (in hundreds) on the nearest farm from the measurement site. Squared distance is the distance squared between measurement site and nearest goat farm measured in hundreds of meters.

* Inter Quartile Range (IQR) is 3.16 for temperature, 12.22 for humidity and 2.74 for distance weighted number of goats
