Table 4.
Sero-prevalence of tested antibodies
| Sero-prevalence (%) | p-value | OR (CI) | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kurunegala | Moneragala | |||
| MSP1-Pf | 25.5 | 64.5 | <0.001 | 5.31 (4.22,6.69) |
| MSP1-Pv | 32.3 | 45.7 | <0.001 | 1.76 (1.42,2.19) |
| AMA1-Pf | 54.1 | 61.8 | 0.005 | 1.37 (1.11,1.70) |
| AMA1-Pv | 52.9 | 61.3 | 0.001 | 1.41 (1.14,1.75) |
| Either Pf antibody | 64.9 | 68.3 | 0.206 | 1.16 (0.93,1.45) |
| Either Pv antibody | 63.8 | 65.1 | 0.664 | 1.06 (0.85,1.32) |
Sero-prevalence for each tested antibody is compared between the two districts using the chi square test. The p-values and the odds ratios (calculated in relation to the Moneragala district) with 95% CI are indicated
