Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

INTRODUCTION: Malaria is a public health problem in Mali. Seasonal chemo prevention (SCP) is of particular importance, hence its introduction by the WHO since 2012 in children aged 3 to 59 months from the start of the transmission season. This study aims to demonstrate the impact of SCP on malaria in the health districts of Kangaba and Kolokani. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Our retrospective study was carried out from 2013 to 2015 in the health districts of Kangaba and Kolokani using the databases of the NGO AMCP / ALIMA. Data from 2014 and 2015 were compared to data from 2013. RESULTS: The number of malaria cases in children under 5year in the area covered by the SCP shows a considerable decrease in Kangaba of 52% in 2014 and 49% in 2015, compared to the reference period being the year 2013. In Kolokani the decrease is 57% in 2014 and 40% in 2015 compared to the year 2013. Compared to deaths, a decrease of 50.5% was recorded in 2014 and 60.4% in 2015 compared to the year 2013, i.e. 51 and 61 fewer deaths compared to 2013, respectively, in health facilities. CONCLUSION: The SCP had made it possible to reduce significant mortality and malaria morbidity in the two health districts of Kangaba and Kolokani.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
