The number of enteric pathogens detected per child for cases with diarrhea and for controls, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, 2010–2011. Number of pathogens detected ranged from 0 to 6 pathogens per child in cases and 0 to 5 pathogens per child in controls. The y-axis represents the percentage of children. In the regression analysis, the odds of having 2 or more pathogens were significantly higher among cases than among controls and were as follows: for 2 pathogens, odds ratio = 5.21 (95% confidence interval (CI): 3.72, 7.29); for 3 pathogens, odds ratio = 5.7 (95% CI: 3.65, 8.91); for 4 pathogens, odds ratio = 19.89 (95% CI: 4.52, 87.47), and for 5 pathogens, odds ratio = 7.37 (95% CI: 1.98, 27.38).
