ReportVectorStatsMalariaGenetics

The vector statistics and malaria genetics report (ReportVectorStatsMalariaGenetics.csv) is a CSV-formatted report similar to the ReportVectorStats report. It provides genetic barcode information in addition to detailed life-cycle data on the vectors in the simulation. The report is stratified by time, node ID, and (optionally) species.

When Malaria_Model is set to MALARIA_MECHANISTIC_MODEL_WITH_PARASITE_GENETICS, this report will provide detailed insight into the status of the parasites in the vector population, including details on the oocysts, sporozoites, biting, etc.

Configuration

To generate this report, the following parameters must be configured in the custom_reports.json file:

Parameter Data type Min Max Default Description
Species_List array of strings NA NA [] The species for which to include information. If the list is empty or absent, then data for all species will be collected.
Stratify_By_Species boolean NA NA 0 If set to true (1), then data will be stratified by species for each node.
Include_Wolbachia_Columns boolean NA NA 0 If set to true (1), columns will be added for each type of Wolbachia. Summation of columns should be equal to VectorPopulation.
Include_Gestation_Columns boolean NA NA 0 If set to true (1), columns will be added for feeding and gestation.
Include_Death_By_State_Columns boolean NA NA 0 Adds columns for the number of vectors that died in this state during this time step as well as the average age. It adds two columns for each of the following states: ADULT, INFECTED, INFECTIOUS, and MALE.
Barcodes array of strings NA NA [] A list of barcode strings where a column will be created with the number of vectors with sporozoites with that barcode. Use '' for a wild card. An OtherBarcodes* column will be created for those not defined.

NumDiedInfected integer The number of infected vectors that died this day. These vectors had oocysts but no sporozoites.

NumSporozoites integer The number of sporozoites in the vector population.
NumInfectiousToAdult integer The number of vectors that transitioned from infectious (had sporozoites) to adult (having no sporozoites or oocysts).
NumInfectiousToInfected integer The number of vectors that transitioned from infectious (had sporozoites) to infected (having only oocysts).
\<Barcode\> integer Number of vectors with sporozoites with the indicated barcode. If a wild card ('') is used, then it is the number of vectors in that group that contain sporozoites. The barcode indicated is provided by the user in the Barcodes* parameter.
OtherBarcodes integer The number of vectors with sporozoites having a barcode different from those specified by the user. This column only appears when the user specifies barcodes in the Barcodes parameter.
