Note: The adjusted regressions include data from 3063 health events of 2124 individual household members from 1758 households within 324 communities or sampling clusters, *** = p < 0.001, ** = p < 0.01, * = p < 0.05, # = p < 0.20.

a = Social capital scores were measured as the standardized factor score generated by multi-level confirmatory factor analysis of social capital indicators of Shortened Adapted Social Capital Assessment Tool in India (SASCAT-I).

b = Caste concordance: Household caste is the same as the caste of the majority of the population in the community.

c = Int.$ is calculated using Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) 2017 of India: 1 Int..$ = 20.648 Rup (https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/PA.NUS.PPP?locations=IN).

d = Community wealth is measured by the average of the individual household wealth index generated by PCA.

H-SoS = Household head's social support, H-TR = Household head's trust, H-SC = Household head's social cohesion.

C-OP = Community organizational participation, C-SoS = Community social support, C-TR = Community trust.

C-SC = Community social cohesion.

e = Variable was not included in the adjusted model as it did not present a significant association in the unadjusted model. Please, see the supplement 5 in the Additional File 1 for more information.
