School-based deworming programmes
In accordance with World Health Organization guidelines, the school-based deworming for soil-transmitted helminths (STH) is being implemented in India since 2015 through teachers on National Deworming Day (NDD). This study aimed to assess teachers’ knowledge levels and perception of STH and NDD programmes in southern India using a cross-sectional study design with purposive sampling of teachers involved in the NDD programme. Data from 402 teacher…
Better floors, better health
This study presents a theory of change framework mapping the pathways through which an improved flooring intervention may impact health and wellbeing. The results can be of use to researchers or programmes that are in the design or evaluation phase of a household flooring project in Kenya or other settings where access to improved floors is limited
Improved household flooring is associated with lower odds of enteric and parasitic infections in low- and middle-income countries
Enteric and parasitic infections such as soil-transmitted helminths cause considerable mortality and morbidity in low- and middle-income settings. Earthen household floors are common in many of these settings and could serve as a reservoir for enteric and parasitic pathogens, which can easily be transmitted to new hosts through direct or indirect contact. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to establish whether and to what extent i…
Urban Water Access and Use in the Kivus
Increasing the availability and reliability of community water sources is a primary pathway through which many water supply interventions aim to achieve health gains in communities with limited access to water. While previous studies in rural settings have shown that greater access to water is associated both with increased overall consumption of water and use of water for hygiene related activities, there is limited evidence from urban environme…
Development and application of an electronic treatment register
We developed an electronic treatment register for the DeWorm3 Project, a cluster-randomised, controlled trial in Benin, India, and Malawi testing the feasibility of interrupting transmission of soil-transmitted helminths through community-wide mass drug administration. The electronic treatment register was designed in xlsform, deployed via the SurveyCTO mobile data collection platform, and implemented on smartphones running the Android operating …
