  1. Note: *β is the regression coefficient estimate obtained from the generalized linear latent and mixed models using site as random effect;
  2. **Covariates references were: CQ, AQ, SP for day 7 and CQ, AQ, SP and SP-AQ for day 14 and day 28 for treatment, the age ≥5 years old for the age group, the 28-day cured parasite outcome after treatment for the treatment failure (Treat fail) outcome, the baseline parasite density was log transformed and treated as continuous variable; AS + partners were: AS-AQ, AS-SP, AS-PYR for day 7, AS-AQ, AS-SP, AS-MEF for day 14 and AS-AQ, AS-SP, AS-PYR, AS-SMP and AS-MEF for day 28.
