  1. The percentage displayed under positive culture and MDR was calculated using the frequency of each classes of the variable group that were enrolled in this study and positive for culture as a denominator, respectively
  2. Italic values means the observed difference is statistically significant (p < 0.05)
  3. MDR, multi-drug resistant; UTI, urinary tract infection; HIV, human immuno-deficiency virus
