Logistic regression results for the odds of adhering to prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) protocols when women have experienced intimate partner violence and by covariates.

Notes. Logistic regression results are presented as adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals (adjusted for covariates: mother’s age, infant’s age, education, parity, knowledge of PMTCT, number of household assets, PMTCT regimen, and HIV status disclosure to husband/partner). Abbr. cART=Combination antiretroviral therapy. IVP=Intimate partner violence. NVP=Nevirapine. PMTCT=Prevention of mother-to-child transmission. sdNVP=Single dose NVP.
Different sample size because women were offered medication differentially for each protocol.
