Fig. 6

Within-host model prediction of the probability of survival for each relapse. The plot shows a comparison between model predicted times to relapse and the datasets described in Table 2. The curves represent the best-fit prediction for the within-host model. The five numbered curves represent five relapses. The dots indicate the survival probability of each relapse (based on raw data) with a 95% confidence interval (vertical bars). The survival analysis outcomes including 95% confidence intervals for the survival function at the time of each relapse are shown in the Additional file 1: Fig. S2
