Fig 1.
Five-year resistance rates of hospital- and community-acquired E. coli UTIs by selected antibiotics.
amp = ampicillin; tri = trimethoprim; cef = cefazolin; amc = amoxycillin-clavulanate; cip = ciprofloxacin; pit = piperacillin-tazobactam; gen = gentamicin; nit = nitrofurantoin. ** 0.001 < p value < 0.05. ** p < 0.001
Fig 2.
Seasonal antimicrobial resistance rates for E. coli UTIs.
1 = Summer; 2 = Autumn; 3 = Winter; 4 = Spring. P = significance level for an increasing trend. AMC = Amoxycillin-clavulanate; TMP-SMX = Trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole
