Health facility-based malaria surveillance: The effects of age, area of residence and diagnostics on test positivity rates

BACKGROUND: The malaria test positivity rate (TPR) is increasingly used as an indicator of malaria morbidity because TPR is based on laboratory-confirmed cases and is simple to incorporate into existing surveillance systems. However, temporal trends in TPR may reflect changes in factors associated w...
