  1. 1 T.c. = Trypanosoma congolense.
  2. 2 T.v. = T. vivax.
  3. 3Mixed trypanosome infection were T. congolense and T. vivax
  4. 4Prev. % = Percent prevalence; Trypanosome prevalences with different letter superscripts are significantly (Pearson χ2 test; p < 0.05) different from those of Nov 2007 along the row and/ or column of comparison.
  5. 595 % CI = 95 % confidence interval.
