Entomological and epidemiological datasets used to estimate the probability of T. cruzi transmission from vector to human (T) per contact with infected vector.

Data are presented as mean ± SE (when available in the original study). Entomological data were combined to estimate the number of potentially infectious contact per person per year (PIC).M1 and M2 refer to the triatomine collection methods and the corresponding correction factors defined in the main text.aVector densities were further corrected for seasonality using monthly variations in infestation of T. infestans[32] orbfor the seasonal infestation pattern of T. dimidiata[21].cThe biting rate was estimated and corrected for seasonal variations according to [33]. Incidence was either measured directly or derived from prevalence using data on children or on all age-categories at the house or village scale.dchildren eincidence after 2 years of exposure at the household scale,fincidence after 3 years of exposure at the village scale.
