Identifying Antimicrobial Multiresistance Patterns ofEscherichia coliSampled From Diarrhoeic Calves by Cluster Analysis Techniques: A Way to Guide Research on Multiresistance Mechanisms

Abstract: Multiresistance is a critical issue. This study points out the usefulness of cluster analysis techniques to describe concisely the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of bacterial isolates in a way that could effectively help in generating hypotheses on multiresistance mechanisms. Data were selected from the French antimicrobial resistance survey network on veterinary pathogens (Resapath). They were related to 1545 Escherichia coli isolates, which were isolated from faecal samples of diarrhoeic calves in Fra… Show more

“…Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering (HC) was used, which is based on a dissimilarity matrix and has the advantage of not having the number of clusters chosen a priori [ 26 ]. The Gower distance was used to calculate the distance matrix, and Ward's method was used as the HC algorithm [ 27 ]. The functions ‘hclust’ and ‘daisy’ from the package ‘cluster’ in R were used to conduct the HC and the Gower distance respectively [ 28 ].…”
