Table 2.

Adjusted^* cumulative incidence ratio estimates of human infection with Schistosoma japonicum from a one unit increase (1%) in the baseline prevalence proportion of dog, cat, water buffalo and rat S. japonicum infection using a Bayesian hierarchical model adjusting for misclassification error

	Cumulative incidence ratio estimate (95% BCI)

Animals species included in the model	Dogs	Rats	Cats	Water buffaloes
Dogs only	1·04 (1·02–1·07)
Rats only		1·02 (1·00–1·04)
Cats only			1·17 (1·01–1·39)
Water buffaloes only				1·02 (0·98–1·05)
Dogs and rats	1·04 (1·02–1·07)	1·01 (1·00–1·03)
Dogs and cats	1·05 (1·02–1·09)		0·95 (0·77–1·15)
Dogs and water buffaloes	1·05 (1·02–1·07)			1·01 (0·98–1·04)

BCI, Bayesian credible interval.

All models are adjusted for age, gender, occupation at the individual level and region at the village level and include village-level random-effect intercepts.
