^*Light = 1–99 eggs per gram (epg); moderate = 100–399 epg; Heavy = ≥ 400 epg.

^†Normal ≥ 11.2 g/dL; Mild = 8.2 to < 11.2 g/dL; moderate = 5.2 to < 8.2 g/dL; severe = < 5.2 g/dL.

Schistosoma mansoni infection and any soil-transmitted helminths (STH) infection are results from a model with these variables collapsed into binary outcomes.
