Association of gametocyte diversity with risk factors among Pfg377 positive individuals. Odds ratios for multiple alleles and 95 % confidence intervals. Grey bars are non- significant, while dark bars indicate significant parameters. Risk factors are on the Y axes and odds ratios on the X axis. A 10-fold increased parasite density as measured by 18S-NASBA was associated with higher odds of having multiple gametocyte alleles, while sleeping under ITNs was associated with lower odds of having multiple gametocyte alleles
