Predicted % infection | Change in % infection | |
---|---|---|
Scenarios for Ascaris spp. infection | ||
A: All schools have toilets that are used by participants | 5.19 | −34.01 |
B: All household water sources are tubewell or piped | 31.30 | −7.90 |
C: Scenario A and B combined | 3.15 | −36.05 |
Scenarios for hookworm infection | ||
A: All participants clean themselves with water after defecating | 5.52 | −9.18 |
B: All participants same wealth as participants in socioeconomic quintile 3, 4 and 5 | 9.29 | −5.41 |
C: Scenario A and B combined | 3.00 | −11.70 |
In each scenario the response category under investigation was set to 100%. “Predicted % infection” is the predicted prevalence of Ascaris spp. infection in each scenario. “Change in % infection” refers to the difference between predicted prevalence in each scenario and the existing prevalence in the actual data (Ascaris spp. 39.2%; hookworm 14.7%).
