Average PT scores disaggregated by region, district, and parasite density. Data labels indicate average performance of all health workers in a given district. Horizontal grey lines indicate PT score of 80%. District numbers are arbitrary and were assigned during the study in leu of district names to anonymize sites during data analysis and to simplify the presentation of results. The difference between regions in the testing of 500 parasites/µl specimens was not statistically significant. While a difference was detected between regions in testing 1000 parasites/µl specimens, the effect size was negligible, and the data were not sufficient to identify significantly different regions.
