Students had to be lifelong residents of Northern (SF) or Southern (LA) California. Monthly [...] "effective time" (T) spent in OZ environments was derived for each residence and age stratum (0-2, 3-5, 6-11, 12+) with the use of questions about "total time spent outdoors" and time spent in "moderate"

METHODS: Double-blinded bioassays were conducted on twenty unused pyrethroid ITNs of 4 brands (100 nets, 5 subsamples per net) that had been delivered for mass distribution in Papua New Guinea (PNG) having passed [...] mortality (M24) (rs = 0.9,p < 0.0001,n = 20) but BA showed systematic bias between the results. Of the 5 nets with discrepant result between IHI and PNGIMR, three had confidence intervals overlapping the 80%
