Associations between intestinal (A) and systemic (B) inflammation in the first 2 years of life with linear growth and cognitive outcomes at 6–8 years of age among 451 children in the Brazil, South Africa, and Tanzania MAL-ED cohorts. Mean Z-score difference estimates and 95% confidence intervals were derived from linear regression models adjusting for site, age at the 6–8 year assessment, enrollment weight-for-age z-score (or enrollment length-for-age z-score for height outcomes), sex, socioeconomic status, exclusive breastfeeding in the first 6 months, maternal height, and the burden of each of the 12 most prevalent pathogens identified in the first 2 years of life (excluding Shigella).
