  1. The analysis was conducted using the Poisson regression model with robust variance. The effect measure is the PR with its respective 95% CI. The model was adjusted for confounding variables: municipality, school, class shift, sex, age, region of Brazil and mother’s schooling
  2. PR adj: adjusted prevalence ratio; CI: confidence interval. EIs: Educational Institutions
  3. Bolded p-values denote significance (p < .05)
