FIGURE 2.
Linezolid resistance in methicillin-resistant and -sensitive S. aureus isolates from patients with bloodstream infections. (A) Linezolid resistance proportions in methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) between 2014 and 2018, (B) linezolid resistance in MRSA and methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) and (C) linezolid resistance in MRSA stratified by unit type (ICU vs. non-ICU). Linezolid resistance proportions are expressed as population-weighted mean proportions of resistant isolates among all tested isolates with corresponding 95% confidence intervals. (B) The difference in linezolid resistance proportions between MRSA and MSSA isolates and (C) between ICU vs. non-ICU MRSA isolates was analyzed using the Chi square test. ** p < 0.01; *** p < 0.001.
