Table 1. Characteristics of the Vietnam and Indonesia cohorts.
Bayesian posterior probabilities comparing the two cohorts are shown (probability that mean of starred group is higher, ** > 0.99, *** > 0.999, all other comparisons, not significant). See also Figure S1 for probability differences for each GCS.
