Table 3 Predicted mean prevalence by matrices A-D for dataset 1 (full Uganda cohort baseline year 0 – year 3)

From: Development and evaluation of a Markov model to predict changes in schistosomiasis prevalence in response to praziquantel treatment: a case study of Schistosoma mansoni in Uganda and Mali

 

Low intensity (predicted mean prevalence and 95 % CI)

Moderate intensity (predicted mean prevalence and 95 % CI)

High intensity (predicted mean prevalence and 95 % CI)

Overall prevalence (predicted mean prevalence and 95 % CI)
