IG = Intervention group; CG = Control group; CHR = Crude hazard ratio; AHR = Adjusted hazard ratio. Note: Crude and adjusted hazard ratios were computed by Cox regression. 1 Computed by Log-rank test. * Adjusted for baseline stunting. ** Adjusted for baseline co-morbidity of anemia and stunting. 2 Adjusted for baseline co-morbidity of anemia and stunting except those denoted by (a) that were adjusted for baseline stunting and anemia. 3 Computed by Cox-regression and adjusted for baseline co-morbidity of anemia and stunting, wasting and anemia.
