Comparison of geometric mean parasite densities between single infections and co-infections.

<p>Parasite densities are given as geometric mean values with minimum and maximum values in brackets, and expressed in eggs per gram of faeces (eps) for <i>Ascaris</i> and <i>Trichuris</i>, or in parasites per micro litre of blood (p/µl) for <i>Plasmodium</i>. <i>P-values</i><0.05 are statistically significant; p^a: <i>p-values</i> between single infections and single co-infections, p^b: <i>p-values</i> between single infections and mixed co-infections.</p>†<p>: value for co-infection with <i>Ascaris</i>,</p>‡<p>: value for co-infection with <i>Trichuris</i>.</p><p>Comparison of geometric mean parasite densities between single infections and co-infections.
