Table 6. Contrasts from logistic regression modelsa,b,c (Table 5) assessing the statistically significant associations between source type and the occurrence of select antimicrobial resistance genes in phenotypically resistant Escherichia coli isolates collected from wildlife, swine manure pits, and environmental sources in southern Ontario, 2011−2013 (n = 200, dataset A).

a Adjusted for confounding by year of sampling.
b Site of sampling was retained as a random intercept.
c The random intercept to account for clustering by site or animal was not retained in the model, thus ordinary logistic regression was used.
d Includes soil and dumpster isolates.
