Univariate predictors of nonadherence

Characteristic		Number (%) not adhering^a	RR (95% CI)
Study arm	Universal	40/103 (0.39)
	target	25/98 (0.26)	1.5 (1.0, 2.3)
Parity (including index pregnancy)	1	8/44 (0.18)
	2+	42/118 (0.36)	2.0 (1.0, 3.8)
Reading of primary language	Some	24/121 (0.20)

Nonadherence in this table is defined as absent nevirapine (NVP) in umbilical cord blood or withdrawal from the study with documented return of the NVP tablet to the pharmacy. Some of the data in this table were obtained via questionnaire at discharge from the delivery unit. Therefore, data on women who withdrew from the study prior to the delivery visit are missing.
