From: Bridging the data gaps in the epidemiology of hepatitis C virus infection in Malaysia using multi-parameter evidence synthesis

Figure 1

The multi-parameter evidence synthesis model (depicted as a directed acyclic graph [DAG]) used to estimate the prevalence of HCV infection and the proportion of HCV Ab+ individuals with PWID and non-PWID modes of transmission. Stratification is by ethnicity and sex, but for clarity the DAG for males only is shown. Ovals indicate model parameters; rectangles indicate data sources. Distributional and functional relationships between parameters/data sources are indicated by solid and dashed arrows, respectively.
