Figure 1
Identification of the Nyong as a major risk factor for BU incidence in Akonolinga 2002–2012 (spatial analysis on time-aggregated incidence rate of BU in Akonolinga).
A: Incidence rate per village (cases/1,000py). B: Decreasing risk of BU with increasing distance to the Nyong River. Homogenous risk areas of Akonolinga district were identified using the SPODT algorithm. Associated odds-ratio and 95% CI are provided.
