3 Figure 2 National ranking of the feasibility of interrupting the transmission of STH and indicator scores Countries are ordered alphabetically within quintiles of STH elimination feasibility scores. For illustrative purposes, partially ordered sets (posets) rank scores are shown for each indicator, shaded to indicate value, ranging from blue (highest percentile, best scoring) to red (lowest percentile, poorest scoring). The strength of agreement between scoring methods is shown as 4=allocated to the same quintile with four methods, 3=allocation to the same quintile with three methods; 2a=allocation to the same quintile with two methods with a maximum range of one quintile; 2b=allocation to the same quintile with two methods with a maximum range of two quintiles.

4 Figure 3 Quintiles of relative elimination feasibility scores between STH-endemic countries The strength of agreement between scoring methods is shown as 4=allocated to the same quintile with four methods, 3=allocation to the same quintile with three methods, 2a=allocation to the same quintile with two methods with a maximum range of one quintile; 2b=allocation to the same quintile with two methods with a maximum range of two quintiles.
