Reproducibility package for the analysis of immunization inequity trends and ecological concordance with vaccine-derived poliovirus detections in Cameroon.
# Cameroon Immunization Inequity and cVDPV Concordance — Reproducibility Package
**Study title:** Immunization inequity trends and ecological concordance with
vaccine-derived poliovirus detections in Cameroon: 1998 to 2018 survey and
2015 to 2024 surveillance analysis
**Manuscript ID:** PONE-D-26-25926 (PLOS ONE)
**Author:** Tambe Elvis Akem
**Package version:** 1.2
Version 1.2 is a reproducibility/provenance cleanup only. No scientific values, manuscript tables, or analytical results were changed. The update externalises the national surveillance values into a bundled source-aligned CSV, aligns master-workbook labels with the revised manuscript terminology (WUENIC, DTP1-DTP3 percentage-point difference, and FCS periods), corrects the WHO POLIS reference number for unattributed cVDPV counts, and fixes installation/documentation wording.

## What this package does
Running `python run_all.py` reproduces every table and figure in the manuscript from the bundled analytical inputs. Survey-derived results are regenerated from the Cameroon WHO HEAT extract; the national programme/surveillance panel is regenerated from a source-aligned WUENIC/POLIS input file:
- **Tables 1-4** (national survey trends, wealth-based inequality with
fixed Q1/Q5 endpoints, 2018 multidimensional inequality, national
surveillance panel)
- **Supplementary tables S2-S5** (geographic harmonization/concordance,
survey-derived subgroup estimates with 95% confidence intervals, standard
concentration index vs. ECCI, and four prespecified sensitivity analyses)
- **Figures 1-3** (national coverage trends, wealth-related inequality,
Pol3/IPV/cVDPV surveillance), each exported as PNG (200 DPI, manuscript
preview) and TIFF (600 DPI, LZW compression, publication-quality submission)
No manuscript figure is hand-edited after generation; every pixel comes
from this pipeline.
