From: Host age and Plasmodium falciparum multiclonality are associated with gametocyte prevalence: a 1-year prospective cohort study

Fig. 1

Population total Plasmodium falciparum prevalence, P. falciparum gametocyte prevalence and clinical malaria incidence. Total P. falciparum prevalence (include both asexual and sexual parasites) and P. falciparum gametocyte prevalence in the entire cohort at each month for 1 year are shown with the 95% confidence intervals (left y-axis). Total P. falciparum positivity was measured by species-specific nested PCR, and, P. falciparum gametocyte positivity by Pfs25 mRNA RT-PCR. In addition, the number of malaria cases over each 1-month period preceding sample collection is shown (right y-axis)
