Figure 3

Probability of observing a statistical association at the 5% significance level between a pre-erythrocytic immune response and protection from infection. (A) A study in a low transmission setting (EIR = 5) where 30% of infections are prevented by pre-erythrocytic immunity. (B) A study in a high transmission setting (EIR = 150) where 30% of infections are prevented by pre-erythrocytic immunity. (C) A study in a low transmission setting (EIR = 5) where 50% of infections are prevented by pre-erythrocytic immunity. (D) A study in a high transmission setting (EIR = 150) where 50% of infections are prevented by pre-erythrocytic immunity.
