Epidemiological Interactions between Urogenital and Intestinal Human Schistosomiasis in the Context of Praziquantel Treatment across Three West African Countries
Table 6
Re-infection intensity 6-months after baseline among individuals that cleared their infection 6 weeks after PZQ treatment, modelled by negative binomial GLMs.
Baseline infection intensity for the focal species was retained in models even when not significant, so the effect of co-infection over and above effects of the focal species could be assessed. χ2 and p values are from likelihood ratio tests comparing full models with and without the term in question. Age was mean-centred in analyses. ‘ref’ indicates the reference level of each factor.
