Effect of combining mosquito repellent and insecticide treated net on malaria prevalence in Southern Ethiopia: a cluster-randomised trial

Table 3 Results of logistic mixed effects model analysis to compare malaria infection between the intervention (repellent and LLIN) and control (LLIN only)

Variables	Adjusted odds ratio (OR)	95% Confidence interval for OR	P-value
Sex (male)	0.80	0.57-1.13	0.201
Age group

15 and above	1.00
Time	0.87	0.65-1.16	0.335
Repellent and LLIN (yes)	1.99	1.07-3.71	0.049
Time* repellent and LLIN	0.66	0.45-0.97	0.033
Baseline household LLIN ownership (yes)	0.76	0.53-1.09	0.141

LLIN = Long lasting insecticidal net, IRS = Indoor residual spraying, OR = Odds Ratio, *Interaction term (Time and repellent/LLIN).
