Pie charts, one for each village of study, displaying different NS health-related data across the 12-week study period.

<p>Color coding: <i>Red-</i> Proportion of children with NS; <i>Black-</i> Proportion of children with nodding spells reported for the first time; <i>Yellow</i>- Proportion of children with NS who were injured; <i>Green-</i> Proportion of children with NS who died; <i>Blue-</i> Proportion of children with NS who did not have anti-seizure medication. For comparison purposes, the number of children with NS monitored per village was normalized to 100%. Percentages above 100% are indicative of repeated outcomes. The pie chart corresponding to Ludok and Olam villages (bottom right) should be taken only for reader orientation because values summarize data collected for only 4 weeks (<a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0006588#pntd.0006588.s001" target="_blank">S1 Tables</a>).</p
