Rate ratio estimate and (95% CI) (4) Average increase (additional users per year and % increase) (4)
d<5 km 649.5 2.21 (1.74 to 2.79) 782.7 121
5 km≤d<10 km 478.4 2.43 (1.92 to 3.09) 686.0 143

(1) Distance from home to the health centre.

(2) Average number of users per centre in the 12 months preceding the intervention.

(3) RRs and marginal increases estimated by multilevel Poisson regression.

(4) All RRs and marginal increases are significant at a threshold of p<0.001.
