*We conducted a generalized linear model with Poisson family, adjusted by the variables presented, and adjusted by cluster. +We only included variables with a likelihood ratio test lower than 0.20 in the raw analysis (consumption of non-drinking water, threatened abortion), and variables that may be explained by mechanisms of pathogenicity (area of residence, household cats). Anti-T. gondii: Anti-Toxoplasma gondii. PRa: Prevalence ratio adjusted; CI: Confidence interval; Ref: referrer.
