Figure 1.
Proportion seroprevalence of human cysticercosis and location of T. solium tapeworm carriers and NCC-related cases, Tumbes, Peru, 1999.
Two households with tapeworm carriers in Matapalo are virtually superimposed and cannot be differentiated visually. In the absence of defined community boundaries, straight lines were drawn to delimit villages respecting the self-reported area of residence data provided by each household.
Figure 2.
Household-level prevalence of human cysticercosis seroprevalence and NCC-related seizure by distance to the nearest T. solium tapeworm carrier, Tumbes, Peru, 1999.
Observed prevalence rates in both figures are slightly jittered, and seizure frequencies 50% and 100% are represented as 40%.
