  • Chlamyweb Intervention 2012.

  • Bold font indicates a statistically significant p value. The total sum is not equivalent with the total number (n) due to the missing data.

  • ‘Collin’ means that the 0 category for ‘number of sexual partners in the past year’ is in collinearity with the 0 category for ‘number of sexual partners in the past 3 months’.

  • For the regression, 3079 observations were included in the regression from the 3285 observations of the study (6.3% missing values).

  • aOR, adjusted OR; CT, Chlamydia trachomatis.
