CBVCT: mean outcome in CBVCT communities
SVCT: mean outcome in SVCT communities
Ratio: mean baseline ratio of CBVCT vs. SVCT communities
Effect: intervention effect, increase in mean CBVCT/SVCT ration since baseline (except for testing uptake and disclosure, where the effect is PIA CBVCT/SVCT ratio)
95% CI: 95% confidence interval for intervention effect
p-value: p-value for the hypothesis of no intervention effect on outcome
Testing uptake measured by proportion who reported HIV test; sexual risk behaviour measured by self-reported monthly number of unprotected sexual acts; social norms measured by scores ranging from 0 to 3, higher values corresponding to more favourable social norms; discussions about HIV measured by proportion who reported a discussion in the last month; disclosure of HIV status measured by proportion of tested participants who disclosed their last test result; stigma measured by scores ranging from 0 to 4, higher values corresponding to more stigma; negative life events measured by proportion who reported any events related to partnership break-up, discrimination, estrangement, neglect, or violence.
