Analytic framework for the predicting risk of imported disease with demographics (PRIDD) method. This framework depicts the analytic approach for exploring the relationship between community-level independent sociodemographic and health service factors with malaria case burden. The potential for confounding of this relationship by other behavioral, cultural, environmental, and situational factors is indicated by the broken line to the oval component demonstrating examples of potential confounders which are not controlled for using the PRIDD method with American Community Survey data because of availability of variables in used datasets.
