Note. CI = confidence interval; OR = odds ratio.
Model selection based on adjusted Wald test results, which indicated that covariates with nonsignificant univariate associations do not significantly improve the model fit (P = .183).
Conflict-affected include nondisplaced households within Syria that have been, directly or indirectly, affected by the conflict.
Returnees include those previously displaced for a time that have since returned to their original home.
