Clearing asymptomatic parasitaemia increases the specificity of the definition of mild febrile malaria.
In clinical trials, the specificity of the disease endpoint is critical to an accurate estimate of vaccine efficacy. We used a logistic regression model to analyse parasite densities among children before and after treatment with antimalarials, in order to estimate the impact that clearing asymptoma...
