Unexposed: community sample.

*Include unexposed children on IPT.

†MRR from a model with age as underlying time.

‡MRR from a model with age as underlying time, adjusted for gender, ethnicity, district, socioeconomic status, schooling of the mother and child crowding.

D/PYO, deaths/person-years of observation; IPT, isoniazid preventive therapy; MRR, mortality rate ratio.
