- W2602621685 abstract "The primary goal of this chapter is to describe the role of epidemiological theory and mathematical modeling in defining and updating an elimination agenda for malaria. Many relevant questions that come up in planning or monitoring malaria control begin with the words “How much . . . ?” or “What levels . . . ?” As an example, one question might be “How much would malaria epidemiology change if 80% of people owned and used an insecticide-treated bed net (ITN)?” Although statistical answers are found by starting from data and working backward to infer cause, mathematical answers are found by starting with a basic description of malaria transmission and working forward. Mathematics thus provides a precise language for discussing malaria epidemiology in all its complexity, and it gives such discussions a quantitative structure. The parasite rate (PR) is a commonly measured aspect of malaria that is highly useful for malaria elimination planning. Intuitively, it is known that elimination will require greater effort in places where a higher fraction of people are infected (i.e., there is a higher PR). Mathematical models turn the notions of “higher fraction,” “greater number,” and “more effort” into quantitative statements. They can also draw useful comparisons about malaria control in different places, such as the hypothetical prediction “80% coverage with ITNs would reduce PR from a baseline of 20% to below 1% within 10 years, or from a baseline of 50% to 15% within 5 years.” Quantitative answers are rigorously" @default.
