Difference in pathogen detection in children that recently received non-study antibiotics.
X axis is the absolute difference in those that received non-study antibiotics during the month prior to 6, 12, and 18 months versus those that did not receive non-study antibiotics. Negative values to the left of 0.0 represent lower carriage with receipt of non-study antibiotics.We examined whether a growth benefit was observed with study antimicrobial in the children who carried the enteric pathogens that have most consistently been associated with growth deficits, namely
