Country-level analysis of the impact of mines on water and sanitation infrastructures and child health. The forest plot shows the odds ratios (OR) and corresponding 95 % confidence intervals (95 % CI) for the association between distance to a mine (≤ 10 km vs. 20–100 km) and modern water (panel A) and sanitation (panel B) infrastructures, stunting (panel C), wasting (panel D), underweight (panel E) and diarrhea (panel F) among children under 5 years stratified by country. Some countries were excluded due to the low number of households in the respective categories close to the mines. The overall OR for all countries in the dataset is shown in black color. AO = Angola; BF = Burkina Faso; BU = Burundi; CD = Democratic Republic of Congo; CI = Ivory Coast; GA = Gabon; GH = Ghana; GN = Guinea; KE = Kenya; LS = Lesotho; MD = Madagascar; ML = Mali; MW = Malawi; MZ = Mozambique; NM = Namibia; SL = Sierra Leone; SN = Senegal; SZ = Eswatini; TZ = Tanzania; ZA = South Africa; ZM = Zambia; ZW = Zimbabwe
