The population screened (total) refers to people tested either by mass screening with CATT or by door to door screening with RDTs. Seropositives (total) include all the individuals found positive with CATT performed on whole blood or with an RDT. Seropositives (CATT 1:4) include all the individuals found positive with CATT performed on 1:4 diluted plasma. The seroprevalence was calculated as the total number of seropositives divided by the total number of people screened and expressed as a percentage. The prevalence was calculated as the number of confirmed HAT cases divided by the total number of people screened and expressed as a percentage. The positive predictive value (PPV) was calculated as the number of cases divided by the number of seropositives identified either with CATT performed on whole blood, CATT performed on 1:4 diluted plasma or with an RDT, and expressed as a percentage. Results are shown for each calendar year and for each prefecture. (DOCX)
