A general framework to support cost-efficient fecal egg count methods and study design choices for large-scale STH deworming programs–monitoring of therapeutic drug efficacy as a case study
BACKGROUND: Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) control programs currently lack evidence-based recommendations for cost-efficient survey designs for monitoring and evaluation. Here, we present a framework to provide evidence-based recommendations, using a case study of therapeutic drug efficacy monitori...
