∆LAZ, ∆WAZ, and ∆WLZ denote change in length-for-age, weight-for-age, and weight-for-length Z scores during the intervention period; SIBO (+) denotes small intestine bacterial overgrowth positive; Age indicates pre-intervention age in months. For each outcome, only covariates that were significant at P ≤ 0.25 were included.
