Percentage of parasites whose trajectories have a total displacement of >2 µm.
Percentage of parasites with a sufficient number of trackpoints (≥12) to apply a modified Fourier fit.
Calculated for fittable trajectories from moving parasites only.
Values expressed are mean ± SD except for trajectory lengths, which are expressed as median ± SD due to their non-Gaussian distribution.
