The prevalence of Escherichia coli carrying resistance factors (R factors) was examined in meat-consuming individuals and in those not consuming meat (vegetarians and babies below the age of 6 months). Assuming that the transport of resistant E. coli from animals through meat and meat products to the human consumer is most important, with regard to the incidence of resistant E. coli in man, we expected a significant difference in the proportions of people with resistant E. coli between the two groups. However, the percentage with resistant E. coli was larger in the group of vegetarians and babies than in the group of meat-eating individuals.
对食用肉类的人群以及不食用肉类的人群（素食者和6个月以下婴儿）体内携带耐药因子（R因子）的大肠杆菌的流行情况进行了检测。假设耐药大肠杆菌从动物通过肉类和肉制品传播给人类消费者这一途径对于人类体内耐药大肠杆菌的发生率最为重要，那么我们预计两组中携带耐药大肠杆菌的人群比例会存在显著差异。然而，素食者和婴儿组中携带耐药大肠杆菌的百分比高于食肉人群组。
