Net product Percent attrition (95% CI) Hazard ratio (95% CI), p-value
10 months 22 months 36 months
Olyset 7 (5, 8) 25 (21, 29) 55 (49, 61) 1
PermaNet 5 (3, 6) 20 (17, 24) 42 (38, 46) 0.71 (0.64, 0.79), p < 0.001
NetProtect 6 (4, 8) 22 (18, 26) 46 (43, 50) 0.81 (0.71, 0.93), p = 0.008
p < 0.001*

Details of the analysis are provided in S5 Table. Number of nets remaining in households by time point: 10 months, 8,269 nets; 22 months, 6,324 nets; 36 months, 3,942 nets.

*p-Value for the comparison between the 3 nets. For the difference between PermaNet and NetProtect, p = 0.006.
