Comparison of environmental factors in high and low risk <i>L. loa</i> regions.

<p>(A–E) Environmental variables in very high (>60%) and low (<20%) prevalence areas were examined by randomly selecting 15 locations in the two high risk and one low risk areas (<i>n</i> = 45 in total). Underlying data on elevation (m), vegetation (NDVI), precipitation (mm), temperature (C°), and humidity (qa) <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0001605#pntd.0001605-United1" target="_blank">[18]</a>–<a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0001605#pntd.0001605-National2" target="_blank">[20]</a> were extracted and analysed in PAWS Statistics 17.0 (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, IL).</p

Maps of bed net coverage, ITN coverage and ITN density.

<p>Maps of rural DHS clusters, with the size of the circle representing A) any bed net coverage, B) ITN coverage and C) ITN density. The scored areas represent areas 400 km from Kinshasa and Lubumbashi and the blue regions represent areas with population density greater than the median 23.</p
