Pneumococcal carriage and phenotypic resistance in children aged 6–59 months, Nouna district, Burkina Faso

Received an antibiotic, past 3 months (N = 111), n (%) Did not receive an antibiotic, past 3 months (N = 172), n (%) Odds ratio (95% CI)
Carriage 32 (28.8) 69 (40.1) 0.56 (0.33–0.93)
Azithromycin resistance* 4 (12.5) 6 (8.7) 1.50 (0.35–5.87)
Oxacillin resistance*† 10/29 (34.4) 14/61 (23.0) 2.24 (0.79–6.44)
Trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole resistance*† 23/29 (79.3) 45/61 (73.8) 1.67 (0.57–5.39)
Tetracycline resistance* 26 (81.3) 44 (63.8) 2.54 (0.94–7.73)
Clindamycin resistance* 1 (3.1) 4 (5.8) 0.50 (0.02–3.75)
*

Analyses restricted to positive Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates.

Oxacillin and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole resistance was not measured in all study communities; denominators are lower than the overall number of positive isolates.
