Providencia rettgeri is a rod-shaped, urease-producing, Gram-negative bacterium. It is motile, owing to the presence of flagella, which aid in its movement and colonisation of a wide range of environments. It is prevalent in hospitals and other healthcare settings, particularly on medical equipment, and therefore plays an increasingly important role in nosocomial infections. P. rettgeri produces mannose-resistant Proteus-like (MR/P) fimbriae, which allow adhesion to uroepithelial mucosal cells and to exfoliated urinary cells, contributing to its role in urinary-tract infections.

Interpret and diagnose linear mixed-effects models fitted with lme4. Provides tools for summarizing model output, visualizing assumptions checks, and performing hypothesis tests.
