Crude and conditional predictors of Campylobacter spp.

Characteristic	Crude OR (95% CI)	Adjusted OR (95% CI)*
Poverty index (poor vs. not poor)	0.39 (0.18, 0.83)	0.38 (0.16, 0.91)
Chicken in the home	2.29 (1.06, 4.95)	3.75 (1.44, 9.79)
Prior episode of AGE (of any cause)	3.55 (1.66, 7.60)	3.33 (1.42, 7.78)
Had contact with any person, inside or outside the home, with AGE in the past week†	4.17 (1.27, 13.65)	–

AGE = acute gastroenteritis; OR = odds ratio.

^*Model adjusted for 3-month age-group, residual age difference between cases and controls after matching, poverty index, chicken in the home, and prior episode of gastroenteritis.

^†Contact with a person experiencing AGE was excluded from the adjusted OR calculation due to cell sizes ≤ 5.
