Table 2. Within infection correlations between slide and qRT-PCR data.

	R ²		Slope		Intercept
	Mean	95% CI	Mean	95% CI	Mean	95% CI
Total parasites	0.94	(0.91, 0.97)	1.02	(0.92, 1.11)	−0.06	(−0.51, 0.39)
Total gametocytes	0.93	(0.89, 0.97)	1.11	(0.96, 1.26)	−0.11	(−0.81, 0.59)
Male gametocytes	0.88	(0.81, 0.95)	1.09	(0.95, 1.22)	−0.39	(−0.67, −0.12)

Within infection correlations between slide and qRT-PCR data generated parasite counts for all three assays (total parasites, total gametocytes and male gametocytes). The mean and 95% confidence intervals for R² values, slopes and intercepts are presented.
