Association of co-occurring pathogens with high levels of ipaH gene of Shigella spp. in stool specimens of children with diarrhea (cases) and children without diarrhea (controls) in low-income countries. Dark circles indicate means, and error bars indicate 95% CIs. tEPEC, typical enteropathogenic Escherichia coli; EAEC, enteroaggregative E. coli; ETEC, enterotoxigenic E. coli.
