<p>The tables below <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0096030#pone-0096030-g002" target="_blank">figures 2</a> and <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0096030#pone-0096030-g003" target="_blank">3</a> show numbers at risk at the beginning of a particular time period. Deaths are in parentheses. Numbers at risk are not simply those previous at-risk minus deaths. Other outcomes also result in children being removed from further analysis (being ‘censored’). With this denominator change, the y-axis is mortality <i>probability</i> rather than percentage. Whilst our main outcomes focus is on the first year post-discharge, for completeness, data is presented until the last child's follow-up.</p
Patient profile at baseline (initial admission), by final outcome.
†<p>Numbers with kwashiorkor plus numbers with severe wasting = 972 rather than 1024: the remaining 52 patients had complicated moderate wasting. These children were treated according to exactly the same protocols as those with SAM and hence are included in the follow-up study.</p
