CCU, consistent condom use; FSW, female sex worker; IBBA, Integrated Behavioural and Biological Assessment. **Indicate a P value less than 0.02 and *a P value = 0.07 for the χ2 test comparing the frequency of model fits between the two following CCU trends hypothesis: s1Control 1 with the ’estimated CCU trends’ or sControl 2 with the ‘estimated CCU trends’ ^ ’estimated CCU trends’ as shown in Supplementary material figure S5, Control 1: Same CCU trends as the ’estimated CCU trends’ before the start of Avahan and constant thereafter; Control 2: Same CCU trends as the ’estimated CCU trends’ before the start of Avahan and then increases at preintervention rate until the last IBBA (R3 in Mysore, Bellary and Belgaum and R2 in Shimoga and Bangalore Urban) and constant thereafter. na: not available; an’ parameter sets out of the N parameters sets sampled agreed with the available prevalence data at the different rounds. bR3 IBBA data were only used at the fitting stage for Mysore, Bellary and Belgaum as it was not available at the time of the modelling analysis in Shimoga and Bangalore. c1Ratio of the number of adequate model fits using the estimated CCU trends compared to the number of adequate model fits when using control 1; c2 as c1 but using control 2.
