Univariable logistic regression of treatment regimen and associated factors as predictors of negative regimen-specific outcomes. Included patients were notified in London, had regimen-specific outcome and regimen information, and their disease was without additional drug resistance, unless to streptomycin. Each model contains the patients without missing data. H: isoniazid; Rf: rifamycin; Z: pyrazinamide; E: ethambutol; Fq: fluoroquinolones; M: moxifloxacin; Hr: isoniazid resistance.
