Using logistic regression, we found no differences in the odds of seropositivity across location, sex, age category, breed group, and dog origin (Table).
In multivariable logistic regression models used to predict adjusted odds of RVFV seropositivity, location was significant when age and gender were controlled for; those residing in Gumarey were at 4 times the risk of those in Sogan-Godud (adjusted OR 4.15, 95% CI 1.59 10.87).
Although female graduates were more likely than males to be in a more remote rural practice, when these 2 factors were taken into consideration in multivariate logistic regression, it was only participation in the RCSWA that remained a significant predictor of a still more than 4-fold increase in the odds of a more remote location of current rural practice.
cOdds ratios = odds of participating at community-based location rather than medically-based location.
We modeled location, a potential proxy measure of exposure, using a bivariate smooth (S) of latitude (x1) and longitude (x2) logit [p x1,x2)] = S x1,x2) + γ ' z (1) where the left-hand side is the log of the disease odds at location (x1,x2), z is a vector of covariates, and γ is a vector of parameters.
We modeled location, a potential surrogate measure of exposure, using a bivariate smooth (S) of longitude and latitude (x1) and (x2) where the left-hand side is the log of the disease odds at location (x1,x2), z is a vector of covariates, and γ is a vector of parameters.
We modeled location, a potential surrogate measure of exposure, using a bivariate smooth (S) of spatial coordinates (x1) and (x2) (1)logit [p(x 1, x 2)] = S x 1, x 2) + γ'z where the left-hand side is the log of the disease odds at location (x1, x2), z is a vector of covariates, and γ is a vector of parameters.
The increased odds of 'smell-strong' at downwind locations did not differ to the other locations in the sensitivity analysis.
Adjusted for age, stage, and tumor location, the odds of operation was 1.89 (95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.26 2.82) for patients diagnosed in a nonteaching hospital compared with patients diagnosed in a teaching nonuniversity hospital.
Although 0-0 is a marine position in the Gulf of Guinea Atlantic Oceann), the odds of having sampled at that exact location is relatively small; All 0-0 cases in OBIS so far were referring to unknown positions, which have been auto-filled by zeros.
