Prevalence of soil-transmitted helminths as diagnosed by the Kato-Katz technique (red) and qPCR (blue) over all age groups. Hookworm prevalence for qPCR are the aggregated results from Necator americanus, Ancylostoma duodenale and Ancylostoma ceylanicum. Vertical lines indicate 95% confidence intervals
