Multiple logistic regression models of association between the presence and number of farm animals within 1 km from the home address and CAP caused by C. burnetii
Risk factor | OR (95% CI) | P |
---|---|---|
Presence of goats* | 0.79 (0.34–1.86) | 0.59 |
Number of goats* | 1.79 (1.03–3.12) | 0.04 |
Presence of sheep | 2.08 (1.07–4.04) | 0.03 |
OR: odds ratio, 95% CI: 95% confidence interval.
*By including the presence of goats and mean‐centred number of goats together in the models, an OR for the number of goats in subjects with >0 goats within 1 km of the home address is obtained. The OR for the increase in risk for every 1171 goats in the 1 km radius (interquartile range) was calculated.
