Fig 1

The proportion and type of discrepancies detected during quality control of duplicate Kato-Katz thick smears are grouped per helminth species. The type of discrepancy (type 1–3) is indicated by color code and is presented per country (BR: Brazil (n = 42); ET; Ethiopia (n = 216); LA: Lao PDR (n = 108); TA: Tanzania (n = 84)) and as a proportion across the four different studies (ALL: all countries combined; n = 450).
