Source text - English Can population deworming reduce child mortality?
DEVTA trial finds little effect in India
Background
In north India many pre-school children are underweight, many have intestinal worms, and 2—3% die at ages 1·0—6·0 years.
We used the state-wide Integrated Child Development Service (ICDS) infrastructure to help to assess any effects of regular deworming on mortality.
Methods
Participants in this cluster-randomised study were children in catchment areas of 8338 ICDS-staffed village child-care centres (under-5 population 1 million) in 72 administrative blocks.
Groups of four neighbouring blocks were cluster-randomly allocated in Oxford between 6-monthly vitamin A (retinol capsule of 200 000 IU retinyl acetate in oil, to be cut and dripped into the child's mouth every 6 months), albendazole (400 mg tablet every 6 months), both, or neither (open control).
Analyses of albendazole effects are by block (36 vs 36 clusters).
The study spanned 5 calendar years, with 11 6-monthly mass-treatment days for all children then aged 6—72 months.
Annually, one centre per block was randomly selected and visited by a study team 1—5 months after any trial deworming to sample faeces (for presence of worm eggs, reliably assessed only after mid-study), weigh children, and interview caregivers.
Separately, all 8338 centres were visited every 6 months to monitor pre-school deaths (100 000 visits, 25 000 deaths at age 1·0—6·0 years [the primary outcome]).
This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT00222547.
Findings
Estimated compliance with 6-monthly albendazole was 86%.
Among 2589 versus 2576 children surveyed during the second half of the study, nematode egg prevalence was 16% versus 36%, and most infection was light.
After at least 2 years of treatment, weight at ages 3·0—6·0 years (standardised to age 4·0 years, 50% male) was 12·72 kg albendazole versus 12·68 kg control (difference 0·04 kg, 95% CI −0·14 to 0·21, p=0·66).
Comparing the 36 albendazole-allocated versus 36 control blocks in analyses of the primary outcome, deaths per child-care centre at ages 1·0—6·0 years during the 5-year study were 3·00 (SE 0·07) albendazole versus 3·16 (SE 0·09) control, difference 0·16 (SE 0·11, mortality ratio 0·95, 95% CI 0·89 to 1·02, p=0·16), suggesting absolute risks of dying between ages 1·0 and 6·0 years of roughly 2·5% albendazole versus 2·6% control.
No specific cause of death was significantly affected.
Interpretation
Existing ICDS village staff can be organised to deliver simple pre-school interventions sustainably for many years at low cost, but regular deworming had little effect on mortality in this lightly infected pre-school population.
