Modeled diagnosis and treatment coverage based on sensitivity and specificity of caregiver recall across actual intervention coverages in a given community.
<p>Proportions of patients actually experiencing each event at the study clinics are illustrated with red arrows. The solid black line at a 45° angle represents 100% sensitivity and specificity. Estimates for the coverage of these interventions expected from a household survey from caregiver recall with the sensitivity and specificity observed in this study (blue line) were modeled for true intervention coverages (observed at clinic) ranging from 0% to 100% as follows: estimated coverage from caregiver recall = (true coverage at clinic<i>×</i>sensitivity)+[(1−true coverage at clinic)<i>×</i>[1−specificity)].</p

Sampling characteristics of selected point estimates from the 2007 Zambia DHS Survey [7].
<p>Point estimates in this table may vary slightly from the point estimates reported in the 2007 Zambia DHS survey because of slight differences in inclusion criteria during analysis, although all are within 1%.</p>a<p>There are different numbers of children in each wealth quintile because wealth quintiles are calculated at the household level for all persons in the household and not for subgroups.</p
