Additional risk factors for 3GCR-EC and ESBL-EC carriage among children in semirural parishes of Quito, Ecuador.
Points are adjusted RR and error bars are 95% CIs; asterisks (*) indicate significance given alpha = 0.05 (corresponding data including sample sizes and P-values in Tables K and J in S1 Files). RR are adjusted for repeated measures and controlled for the following covariates: caregiver education, asset score, child age and sex, and child antibiotic use in the last 3 months. 3GCR-EC, third-generation cephalosporin-resistant E. coli; CI, confidence interval; ESBL-EC, extended-spectrum beta-lactamase E. coli; RR, relative risk.</p

Bar plot of distribution of 3GCR-EC and ESBL-EC carriage stratified by exposures to HH food animals and CFOs.
Number of observations includes fecal samples that were negative for 3GCR-EC (light gray bars for 3GCR-EC), isolates from fecal samples that were 3GCR-EC (orange bars), or ESBL-EC (purple bars) based on phenotypic susceptibility testing, and isolates plus fecal samples negative for both 3GCR-EC and ESBL-EC (light gray bars for ESBL-EC). Percent of observations positive for each outcome are listed above each bar. 3GCR-EC, third-generation cephalosporin-resistant E. coli; CFO, commercial food animal operation; ESBL-EC, extended-spectrum beta-lactamase E. coli; HH, household.</p
Unadjusted and adjusted RRs of 3GCR-EC and ESBL-EC for main effects of household food animal ownership and exposures to commercial food animal production.

Map of distribution of CTX-M-type genes from a subset of 571 3GCR-EC isolated from children in 7 parishes east of Quito, Ecuador.
Pie chart sections represent the proportion of isolates with a specific CTX-M-type gene detected, among those represented in the plot legend. Shaded areas represent parishes, where darker shading indicates a higher number of commercial food animal operations in a given parish.
