简要总结
The massive scale-up of Long Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLIN) has led to a major reduction in malaria burden (up to 50%) in many sub-Saharan African countries. This progress is threatened by the wide scale selection of insecticide resistant malaria vectors. New types of LLIN combining a mixture of two insecticides or an insecticide and a synergist have been developed to control resistant mosquitoes.
The efficacy of three bi-treated LLIN are compared to a standard LLIN in a four-arm, single blinded, cluster-randomized trial in Misungwi district, Tanzania. The arms are; 1/ Royal Guard, a net combining pyriproxyfen (PPF), which is known to disrupt female reproduction and fertility of eggs, and the pyrethroid alpha-cypermethrin, 2/Interceptor G2, LLIN incorporating a mixture of two adulticides with different modes of action; chlorfenapyr and a pyrethroid (alpha-cypermethrin), and 3/ Olyset Plus an LLIN which incorporates a synergist, piperonyl butoxide (PBO), to enhance the potency of pyrethroid insecticides, and 4/ The control arm: Interceptor treated a standard LLIN treated with alpha-cypermethrin.
The primary outcome of the trial will be cross-sectional community prevalence of malaria infection (by RDT) in children aged 6 months to 14 years at 12 and 24 months post-intervention.
