LMM estimated transition probability matrices.

a, b, cThese parameters were estimated close to 1 or 0 and so in order to avoid numerical instability in the estimation algorithm, MPLUS fixed these automatically to 1 or 0 respectively. Such values should be treated with caution due to computational limitations in these categories during the model estimation.General note: The displayed results are derived by exploiting in the final LMM the interrelationships between CCA and double Kato-Katz (KK) faecal slides over 3 consecutive days as well as not assuming a gold standard.
