  • Malaria was present in 24.4% and STH in 33.7% of the participants, indicating significant health risks.
  • Analysis used systematic random sampling and multivariable logistic regression for comprehensive examination.
  • Findings suggest urgent need for interventions to address co-infection rates in rural settings.
