Kilifi Malaria Longitudinal Cohort cross-sectional survey and weekly-follow-up surveillance data for the estimation of parasite prevalence and factors associated with gametocyte carriage

Listed in LSHTM Data Compass

Data from a longitudinally monitored cohort of children from Kilifi county located along the Kenyan coast collected between 1998-2016 were analysed to describe the distribution and prevalence of gametocytaemia in relation to transmission intensity, time and age.

Description

The datasets comprise data from cross-sectional surveys and weekly follow-up visits carried out within the Kilifi Malaria Longitudinal Cohort based in Kilifi County, Kenya on children aged between 0 – 15 years.

The datasets were used to carry out analyses aimed at describing the prevalence of gametocyte carriage in this cohort as well as factors that predispose gametocyte carriage. The overall aim of the analyses was to identify prognostic indicators of populations contributing disproportionately to the infectious reservoir of malaria.
