a Add-on interventions were nutritional screening linked to complementary feeding; vitamin A supplementation for children; preventive zinc supplementation for children; free distribution of insecticide-treated bednets; multiple micronutrient supplementation in pregnant women (iron, folic acid, vitamin A); and calcium supplementation in pregnant women.
b State totals represent the sum of sex-specific models and thus differ from Table 3.
Note: Including 12 states participating in India’s 2010–2013 measles supplementary immunization activity. Analyses use proportional mortality from the Million Deaths study22 and vitamin A effectiveness from the Deworming and Enhanced Vitamin A Trial.21 Lives saved were calculated for the period 2010–2013. Data are based on the 70% compliance scenario (see Table 2) and apply to multiple micronutrients and calcium during pregnancy, and preventive zinc for children.
