Parameters estimates were adjusted for the tabulated variables. Ref: indicates the reference category.
Maximum Variance inflation factor = 1.96.
Parameters estimates adjusted for: Dependency ratio, household income, gender of the household head.
Coefficients as obtained from a multivariable linear regression model.
High = 3rd tertile for both DDS and frequency of ASF consumption.
Adol = Adolescent.
