Abbreviations: ESC-R, extended-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant; ESC-S, extended-spectrum cephalosporin-susceptible.

a P values generated via Mantel-Haenzel χ2 tests (adjusting for study hospital) unless otherwise indicated.

bNumber does not add to n because of missing data.

c P values generated via (unadjusted) Fisher exact test.

dAll isolates collected from urine and without missing data were characterized as likely urinary tract infection (UTI); 7 isolates with missing data could not be classified (3 extended-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant and 4 extended-spectrum cephalosporin-susceptible).

eType of acquisition was defined as follows: community associated, culture obtained in an outpatient setting or <48 hours after hospital admission from an otherwise healthy patient without hospitalization in the previous 6 months; healthcare associated, culture obtained in an outpatient setting or <48 hours after hospital admission from a patient who had been hospitalized in the previous 6 months and/or had a chronic medical condition requiring frequent healthcare or prolonged/recurrent antibiotic courses; and hospital associated, culture obtained >48 hours after hospital admission or <48 hours after hospital discharge from a patient without signs or symptoms of infection on admission.

fDiagnoses included in the urologic category are congenital urological abnormality, neurogenic bladder, and vesicoureteral reflux.

gImmunosuppressants included antineoplastic agents, high-dose glucocorticoids (≥2 mg/kg of body weight), tumor necrosis factor inhibitors, calcineurin inhibitors, and mycophenolate mofetil.
