Practical Implications of the Non-Linear Relationship between the Test Positivity Rate and Malaria Incidence

BACKGROUND: The test positivity rate (TPR), defined as the number of laboratory-confirmed malaria tests per 100 suspected cases examined, is widely used by malaria surveillance programs as one of several key indicators of temporal trends in malaria incidence. However, there have been few studies usi...
