Fig 2.
Prevalence of Taenia solium infection identified by necropsy (≥ 1, ≥ 10, and ≥ 100 viable cysts) among pigs at increasing distances from human tapeworm carriers.
P-value indicates results of chi-square test for distance trend within each cyst burden stratum. 95% confidence bands calculated with exact binomial distribution.

Crude associations between select pig characteristics and cyst burden (n = 515 pigs).
