Figure 5From: The plasticity of Plasmodium falciparum gametocytaemia in relation to age in Burkina FasoThe age-dependent prevalence and density of gametocytes relative to total parasite carriage by QT-NASBA. The number of parasite carriers (with concurrent gametocytaemia) for the different age groups was 0.5-4y: 74(60); 5-9y: 93(79); 10-19y: 117(83); 20+y 108(67).Back to article page
