Data are presented as No. (%) unless otherwise indicated.

Abbreviations: ESBL, extended-spectrum β-lactamase; KPWA, Kaiser Permanente Washington; LAC, Los Angeles County; NYU, New York University; ST, sequence type; TMP-SMX, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole; USC, University of Southern California; VA, Veterans Affairs.

aFor each category except resistance to antibiotics, the percentage of isolates belonging to a specific clone is given in parenthesis; for resistance to antibiotics other than FQ the number of resistant isolates within a specific clone is given with % from all isolates belonging to this clone in parenthesis.

b P values indicate significance of the difference between H30 and ST1193 characteristics, estimated in likelihood ratio test for prevalence by site; in logistic regression with adjustment by site for time-dependent changes; in χ2 test for association with specific age group or specific specimen; in χ2 or, if appropriate, 2-tailed Fisher exact test for prevalence of resistance to other antibiotic classes.

cFor the total prevalence, the mean ± standard error of the by-site prevalence (%) is given in parentheses.

dPrevalence by year is calculated for 4 sites when 2011 is compared to combined 20162017, and for 8 sites when 2016 is compared to 2017.
