NB–Coefficients represent the differences in cord antibody levels by study site after adjustment for maternal antibody levels. Abbreviations: TMBA = Thailand-Myanmar Border Area; PNG = Papua New Guinea. 1 –Adjusted for log2 maternal levels. 2—Adjusted for log2 maternal levels, gravidity (primigravid/multigravid) and gestational age at delivery (weeks).
