The effect estimates reported vary for outcome variable based on the regression used. As indicated in the first column, the estimates for Attended Recommended Number of Antenatal Care Visits, Early Initiation of Breastfeeding, and One-Year Mortality are Odds Ratios. The effect estimates for Antenatal Care Quality are incidence rate ratios and Birthweight are changes in grams. These results do not include any adjustment for multiple testing.
