Primary result
As reported in the abstract
Factors associated with attrition
- Higher education associated with lower attrition in HIC
- p < 0.05
- Higher education associated with lower attrition in HICAM
- p < 0.001
- Higher employment status associated with lower attrition in HICAM
- p < 0.001
- Female sex associated with lower attrition in LMIC
- p < 0.001
- Intervention group: higher-than-expected attrition in HIC
- p < 0.001
- Intervention group: higher-than-expected attrition in HICAM
- p = 0.003
- Intervention group: lower attrition in LMIC
- p = 0.007
