Table notes

IPW models: models weighted for time-varying variables (log of lagged GDP, log of country population in each year, proportion not in education by country per year) and country income status, separately by sex.

IPW models were not estimated for HIV due to inclusion of a significant quadratic term in the models.

Income status not significant in mixed effects HIV models in either sex thus not included.

Pyo: person years of observation.

B: coefficient.

ExpB: exponentiated coefficient.
