SE, standard error; AME, adult male equivalent.

Means adjusted for clustering and sample weights. Significance of sensitivity analysis only noted when different from main analysis.

for vitamin A, n = 25,254; for vitamin B12, n = 24,960; for all other nutrients, n = 25,425 households (see methods for explanation)

* Significantly different from previous survey year at P<0.01.

**Significantly different from previous survey year at P<0.05.

† 2010 mean is significantly different from 1991 mean at P<0.01.

†† 2010 mean is significantly different from 1991 mean at P<0.05.

‡ In sensitivity analysis, median intake was significantly different than median intake in previous year at P<0.05.

§ In sensitivity analysis, median intake in 2010 was significantly different than median intake in 1991 at P<0.05.

¶ In sensitivity analysis, a significant change in medians was observed in the opposite direction to that detected by means at P<0.05.

# In sensitivity analysis, no significant change was detected.
