  1. Children were grouped according to the presence or absence of parasite infections; without parasite infection (Group G0 = NEG), children with single infection (Group G1), with double (Group G2) and with poly-parasite infections (Group G3+). From children grouped by number of parasite infection (Abbreviations: f/m = female/male).
