Table 6 Univariable meta-regression model for the proportion of JEV infection in vectors. Coefficients, P-values, and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of the association between predictors of interest with the proportion of JEV infection in vectors (n = 18 studies). Random effects meta-regression models use the restricted maximum likelihood method (REML)
