Bayesian age-stage modelling of Plasmodium falciparum sequestered parasite loads in severe malaria patients.
A discrete-time age-stage model is proposed for estimating the number of sequestered parasites in severe malaria patients. A Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach is used to model the dynamics of Plasmodium falciparum parasitaemia in 107 paediatric patients in a randomized controlled tri...
