Accuracy of a rapid diagnosis test, microscopy and loop-mediated isothermal amplification in the detection of asymptomatic Plasmodium infections in Korhogo, Northern Côte d’Ivoire

Abstract Background Highly sensitive and accurate malaria diagnostic tools are essential to identify asymptomatic low parasitaemia infections. This study evaluated the performance of histidine-rich protein 2 (HRP-2) based rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs), microscopy and loop-mediated isothermal amplifi...
