3 Figure 2 Cure rates in PSAC (blue lines) and SAC (red lines)
Circles show observed cure rates with 95% CIs (vertical lines). Numbers and colour code in the circles show geometric mean infection intensities at baseline (BL). Dashed lines represent the estimated dose–response curve and corresponding 95% confidence bands predicted by the Emax models. Epg=eggs per gram of stool. PSAC=preschool-aged children.
