The World Health Organization (WHO) thresholds for classifying the intensity of infections into light, moderate and heavy are summarized in Table 1. The Kappa statistic reflects represents the degree of agreement in classifying M&HI infections between the microscopic methods (Mini-FLOTAC, FECPAKG2 and McMaster) and the reference method (Kato-Katz and WHO thresholds). 95% CI: 95% confidence interval; M&H: moderate-to-heavy.
