Table 6 Fixed effects of univariate and multivariate multilevel negative binomial models of the entomological inoculation rate (EIR). Data analysis is based on census in December 2016–January 2017 and entomological data incorporated from the 5 surveys starting March 2016 (12 month period)

From: Higher risk of malaria transmission outdoors than indoors by Nyssorhynchus darlingi in riverine communities in the Peruvian Amazon
