This table presents the zero inflated negative binomial model obtained through the control variables mother age (in years), child age (in months), bednet use, environmental exposure, and number of antenatal visits. The reference groups were the absence of the respective models for each G3m phenotype or single allotype. G3m5 and G3m11 were not analyzed individually because the whole population group carries them.

In bold: significant P value at the 0.05 threshold.
