A multivariable logistic regression analysis investigating sire risk factors for Leishmania venereal transmission in dogs. The dataset was created by Kayla R. Duxbury and last updated on May 4, 2026. It is a small dataset of 5.5 KB, stored in an XLS file, and includes 28 missing observations due to incomplete diagnostic data.
Use Cases
- Modeling risk factors for canine Leishmania transmission based on sire diagnostic status.
- Analyzing the association between sire age and puppy sex on disease transmission likelihood.
- Validating logistic regression methodologies for veterinary epidemiological studies.
Strengths
- Dataset is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0.
- Analysis focuses on specific explanatory variables: sire qPCR, serology, age, and puppy sex.
Limitations
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- The dataset is very small at 5.5 KB, indicating limited scope.
