AOR adjusted odds ratios, Ref reference variable, CI confidence intervals

a Odds ratios were adjusted for the corresponding mediators

b Odds ratios were adjusted for the corresponding collectivization indicators with the socio-demographic characteristics: age of FSW; formal schooling (yes, no); marital status (currently married, not currently married); source of income other than sex work (yes, no); place of solicitation for sex work (home, public places, brothel/lodges); visited any place for sex work in past 2 years (yes, no); duration of sex work in years (entered as continuous variable)
