We used Demographic and Health Survey data to describe the 2-week period prevalence of fever, cough, and diarrhea among children aged < 5 years in low-resources areas. We then explored the relationship between prevalence of isolated fever and national malaria risk. Fever and isolated fever occurred in 26.7% and 7.0% of children, respectively, and was not fully explained by malaria.
我们利用人口与健康调查数据来描述资源匮乏地区5岁以下儿童中发热、咳嗽和腹泻的两周患病率。然后，我们探讨了单纯发热患病率与国家疟疾风险之间的关系。分别有26.7%和7.0%的儿童出现发热和单纯发热，且不能完全用疟疾来解释。
