Table 3. Study design type predictor variables showing associations with effect sizes for: (A) the complete dataset (n = 99), and (B) the combination of Before-After and Before-After-Control-Impact subset (n = 66).
“During construction data separation” means that mortality data collected during construction of the mitigation was excluded from analyses. Notes: Null model = random-effects model.
