Table 1. Spatially-explicit GLMs showing the effect of each centrality metric on mortality.

  Coefficient ± 1 SE t p-value
Overall network
 Local transitivity 33.82 ± 10.98 3.08 0.003
 Degree centrality 4.60 ± 2.16 2.13 0.037
 Closeness centrality 26.92 ± 12.90 2.09 0.042
Trade network
 Local transitivity 32.84 ± 10.59 3.10 0.003
 Degree centrality 5.46 ± 2.78 1.96 0.054
 Closeness centrality 1.13 ± 0.99 1.13 0.263
Pilgrimage network
 Local transitivity Not applicable    
 Degree centrality 1.19 ± 3.78 0.32 0.753
 Closeness centrality 4.14 ± 5.50 0.75 0.456

All models include as a covariate the year of arrival of the plague to each city. It is shown the outcome from the complete network and from the networks built using only trading and pilgrimage links, respectively. Transitivity in the pilgrimage network could not be calculated because all the triples were open.
