Finally, for each factor of heterogeneity,
For each factor of heterogeneity,
we compared projected ART impacts (incidence reduction/infections averted)
across different factor levels (whether or not, and how the factor was modelled).
We plotted the impacts versus time since \tx{0}, stratified by factor levels,
and explored whether projected impacts were the same under all factor levels,
testing for significant differences using a Kruskal-Wallis test.
We estimated the effect of each factor level on ART impacts
using linear multivariate regression, with generalized estimating equations \cite{Hojsgaard2006}
to control for clustering due to multiple estimates per study.
Time since \tx{0} was included as a covariate, and two variables were removed due to missingness.
No variable selection was used to avoid biasing effect estimates \cite{Harrell2001}.
We also plotted impacts versus time since \tx{0}, stratified by factor levels.
