Association between average number of children at home per census family and Salmonella Enteritidis infections a) . a) The graph displays the effect of a 0.1 unit change in the average number of children at home per census family on the predicted log of the standardized incidence rate (SIR) of Salmonella Enteritidis (S. Enteritidis) infections, keeping all other variables in the final negative binomial regression model at their referent level. The final model included the linear and quadratic terms of average number of children at home per census family, average median family income, and visible minority population proportion. Dependent variable: Number of S. Enteritidis infections by forward sortation area (FSA). Offset: natural log-transformed FSA-based expected number of cases.
