  1. Unadjusted models separately regresses LLIN use on (1) elevation quartile and (2) distance to the nearest level II of level III health centre. Adjusted model regresses LLIN use on elevation quartile and distance to the nearest level II of level III health centre
  2. CI confidence interval, km kilometre, RR risk ratio, aRR adjusted risk ratio
