Table 4 Estimated odds ratio, standard error, 95% confidence interval, and P-values for effects of spatial scale on tick bite risk. The linear model included a random effect of publication. There was a significant effect of spatial scale (Wald test statistic [df = 2] = 8.36, P = 0.0152)
Spatial scale | Odds ratio | SE | CI | P | Number of studies | Number of records |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Yard | 1.35 | 1.19 | [0.97, 1.88] | 0.0799 | 2 | 8 |
Outside neighborhood | 2.46 | 1.48 | [1.14, 5.3] | 0.0213 | 3 | 3 |
