a Principal Coordinate Analysis plot illustrating the gut microbiota of stool samples from residents who developed subsequent UTI (n = 28, pink) compared to those with no UTI (n = 95, teal). b Multivariable logistic regression for microbiome predictors of future UTI. c Box and whisker plot comparing cumulative relative abundances of butyrate-producing bacterial species (Mann-Whitney U test). The centre line denotes the median, the box limits denote the inter-quartile range (IQR) and whiskers extend to the limits. d Multivariable logistic regression for non-microbiome predictors of future UTI. Multivariable logistic regression models were adjusted for age, sex, dementia, moderate-severe incontinence, diabetes, any antibiotic exposure within the previous 12 months, and prior UTI incidence. Error bars indicate 95% CI. *p < 0.05.
