Consistency analysis of prevalence ratios for the carrier status considering children and sociodemographic characteristics, hygiene practices, and water treatment methods

Very high-risk water		aPR	95% CI	P-value
	No	Ref.
Model A: Non-aPR considering the very high-risk water	Yes	4.71	2.05–10.80	< 0.001
Model B: Model A adjusted with children characteristics (gender and chronic malnutrition)	Yes	4.40	1.94–9.98	< 0.001
Model C: Model B adjusted with sociodemographic (socioeconomic status and water source)	Yes	2.61	1.04–6.58	0.041
Model D: Model C adjusted with hygiene practices (daily washing and cleaning supplies for washing the storage container)	Yes	4.00	1.06–15.18	0.041
Model E: Model D adjusted with water treatment methods (drinking water boiling and chlorination)	Yes	3.82	1.13–12.89	0.031
