Brief Summary

The differences in anopheline density were -2.5 (95% CI: -6.4 to -0.6) and -1.3 (95% CI: -2.0 to -0.7), respectively. The median PCRpfPRs were 25% (IQR: 11%) in the intervention arm and 52% (IQR: 11%) in the control arm after 5 months and 33% (IQR: 11%) and 45% (IQR: 5%) after 12 months.
