This slide shows the same results for girls.
We can see that the BMC-height Z-score for girls remaining on LPV/r in blue was lower than the BMC-height Z-score for girls switched to EFV in orange.
On the right, we see that girls switched to EFV for more than 2 years have better BMC-height Z-score compared to those who stayed on LPV/r and those who had only switched to EFV for less than 2 years. These girls may have normalizing BMC-height Z-scores.
