RRR, Relative rate ratio.

Multinomial logistic regression model adjusting for 8 patient-level covariates. RSV-only infection was used as the reference of exposure (virus category), and Streptococcus-dominant microbiota profile was used as the reference for the outcome (nasopharyngeal microbiota profile).
