Fig. 4. E. coli clinical resistance models based on combined sewage and socioeconomical data.

Fig. 4

Proportion of clinical resistant invasive E. coli isolates to aminopenicillins a, fluoroquinolones b, third-generation cephalosporins c, and aminoglycosides d against relative intI1 integrase gene abundance in sewage. Proportion of urban population is shown with different shades of blue and size of point corresponds to basic sanitation index. The blue lines show the fitted clinical resistance from the beta regression model with socioeconomical factors and relative intI1 abundance (see text for details). Three different socioeconomical scenarios (blue lines) have been fitted to the model to shown how sewage data correlates with clinical resistance. Dark blue line: lower quartile (25%), blue: mean quantile (50%) and light blue: upper quantile (75%) of socioeconomical factors fitted to the model. Note that GDP is not shown in the plots, but is included in all models and fitted lines.
