A recent analysis of these data 15 found that the association between sanitation coverage among proximate neighbors (<100 m away from households) and diarrheal outcomes in children was moderate and approached significance (7-day diarrhea prevalence ratio of 0.82 [95% CI: 0.64, 1.04] among those who had 100% sanitation coverage versus less than 100% coverage within 100 meters).

This study reported similar effect estimates for the two distances considered, both of which showed marginally significant protective effects of 100% sanitation coverage (prevalence ratio of 0.82 [95% CI: 0.64, 1.04] and 0.83 [95% CI: 0.67, 1.02] for analyses considering compounds within 50 and 100 meters, respectively).
