Role of Antimicrobial Selective Pressure and Secondary Factors on Antimicrobial Resistance Prevalence in Escherichia coli from Food-Producing Animals in Japan
Figure 4
Relative risks of antimicrobial resistance in porcine E. coli isolates due to exposure to antimicrobials mainly used in Japan. Symbols indicate the values of relative risk of each resistance due to exposure to tetracycline antibiotics (), penicillin antibiotics (▴), methoprims-sulfonamides combination drugs (◆), and penicillin-streptomycin combination drugs (■). *In case that 95% confidence interval () does not include the value 1, the relative risk is considered statistically significant . This figure is based on the data obtained from the previous manuscript mentioned in [42].
