Fig 2. Odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals for variables determining the risk for detection of antibodies against Toxocara canis.

Logistic regression was conducted using the variables study location (A), rodent genus (B) and a combination of both (C). Reference categories were Apodemus for genus and Gatow for study location. The odds ratios for the genus Microtus were 1.1×10⁻⁷ in both models in (B) and (C) but are not presented since antibodies against T. canis were not found in any sample from this genus and the very wide 95% confidence intervals. *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.01.
