Two-dimensional sensitivity analysis of observed cases averted (per 100 000 persons) after 5 years. The sensitivity analysis is performed with respect to the fraction of asymptomatic individuals who return for treatment at baseline (λ A,baseline) and the fraction of successfully treated individuals who were symptomatic at baseline (ψ), for a MSM and b HMW. The central right plot of each panel shows the default scenario (λ A,baseline=90% and ψ=60%). Lower and upper bounds in a box indicate the first and third quartiles. The bar in a box indicates the median and the whiskers span 1.5 times the interquartile range. Outliers are not shown for clarity. HMW heterosexual men and women, MSM men who have sex with men, NAAT nucleic acid amplification test, POC point-of-care, POC + R POC test with resistance detection, POC − R POC test without resistance detection
