Standardizing Plasmodium falciparum infection prevalence measured via microscopy versus rapid diagnostic test
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
The relationships defined in this research can be applied to RDT-derived PfPR data to effectively convert them to an estimate of the parasite prevalence expected using microscopy (or vice versa), thereby standardizing the dataset and improving the signal-to-noise ratio.
