  1. aEstimates include 559 children in placebo communities and 555 children in azithromycin communities.
  2. bMalaria antibody seroprevalence was estimated among children ages 12–59 months (baseline Placebo N = 488, Azithromycin N = 486), per the age group used in the primary analysis.
  3. cBacteria and protozoan antibody seroprevalence estimated among children ages 6–24 months (ETEC LTB, baseline Placebo N = 201, Azithromycin N = 202) or among children ages 6–59 months (all others, baseline Placebo N = 532, Azithromycin N = 539), per the age groups used in the primary analysis.
