Current Mathematical Models for Analyzing Anti-Malarial Antibody Data with an Eye to Malaria Elimination and Eradication

Table 4

Parameter estimates for antibody acquisition models applied to anti-AMA1 antibody titre data (AU: arbitrary units) from northwest and northeast region of Bioko Island. Estimates are presented as posterior medians with 95% credible intervals in brackets.

Region	Malaria transmission
Northwest	Constant	60.4 (50, 65)	—	—	0.098 (0.07, 0.12)	1.36 (1.32, 1.41)
Northeast	Constant	20.2 (18, 23)	—	—	0.053 (0.04, 0.07)	1.36 (1.31, 1.42)
	Drop	128 (65, 232)	20 (17, 23)	7.2 (6.2, 8.7)	0.16 (0.11, 0.21)	1.33 (1.28, 1.39)
