Ampicillin-sulbactam 51.9 43.2
Piperacillin-tazobactam 8.4 42.0
Cefotaxime 12.0 52.7
Ceftazidime 7.8 52.7
Ceftriaxone 11.2 54.0
Aztreonam 9.6 54.9
Ertapenem 1.5 28.6
Imipenem 3.2 33.3
Gentamicin 12.3 67.7
Tetracycline 31.4 43.4
Ciprofloxacin 29.7 70.7
Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole 22.5 64.9
Multidrug resistance (≥ 3 classes) 17.7 65.9

aOverall resistance prevalence was imputed for each agent by multiplying the prevalence of resistance to that agent within a given resistance category by the fractional contribution of that resistance category to the total population, then summing these values across the 3 resistance categories.

bST131’s fractional contribution to overall resistance prevalence was imputed for each agent by calculating, for each resistance category, the net contribution of ST131 to resistance within that resistance category, then adjusting for the fractional contribution of that resistance category to the total population, and summing these values across the three resistance categories.
