a

Data are for 104 isolates. HH, household; Abx, antimicrobial; Clinda, clindamycin; Sulfa, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole; Mup, mupirocin; Ref, reference group.

b

Model A evaluates any use of antimicrobial drugs by human or domestic animal occupants.

c

Model B evaluates mupirocin, clindamycin, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole use as individual variables.

d

ORs for adjusted models used logistic regression and took all listed covariates into account. Rural was not included in the models due to a zero stratum (cf. Table 1).

e

P values for all covariates were obtained using logistic regression. Significance, indicated in bold, is as follows: *, P ≤ 0.05.
