Table 2.

Description of frequency of diagnostic test (microscopy and serology) results at individual level (combinations of microscopy and seropositivity by antigen are presented for Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax separately)

P. falciparum diagnostic tool combinations
PfGLURP + PfGLURP –
Microscopy Pf + PfMSP-1 + 38 5
Microscopy Pf + PfMSP-1 – 3 6
Microscopy Pf PfMSP-1 + 217 246
Microscopy Pf PfMSP-1 – 106 4,481
P. vivax diagnostic tool combinations
PvAMA + PvAMA –
Microscopy Pv + PvMSP-1 + 4 10
Microscopy Pv + PvMSP-1 – 2 14
Microscopy Pv PvMSP-1 + 141 381
Microscopy Pv PvMSP-1 – 78 4,423

AMA = apical membrane antigen; GLURP = glutamate-rich protein; MSP = merozoite surface protein; Pf = P. falciparum; Pv = P. vivax.

Data are only presented for individuals with results recorded for P. falciparum microscopy, PfGLURP and PfMSP-1 (N = 5,102), and individuals with complete results for P. vivax microscopy, PvAMA and PvMSP-1 (N = 5,053).
