Predictive models for immune markers. Each row within each square represents one model. Circles represent predictors included in models. Predictors were determined by backwards stepwise regression feature selection. Location was retained in all models, viral load in the 2 PLWH cohorts, and HIV diagnosis date in the ART-experienced cohort. Predictors that had a significant impact on the model are colored red (↑/positive) or blue (↓/negative). Gender (up) represents higher values in males; location (up) represents higher values in the rural location; BMI categories (up) represent higher values with higher BMI; water source (up) represents higher values in people who drink from wells as opposed to tap; education level (up) represents higher values in people who went to secondary school as compared to tertiary; manual job (up) represents higher values in those who do work manual jobs as compared to those who do not. “Model NS” means that the overall model was not significant despite the predictor being significant. Gray circles represent non-significant predictors
