Triple Dose

High prevalence of STH leads to malnutrition, anemia, cognitive impairment, and growth disorders. Triple-dose albendazole 400 mg is a broad-spectrum anthelminthic; however, its effectiveness varies in every region. This study aims to determine the benefits of deworming using triple-dose albendazole on children’s nutritional status in Perobatang Village, Southwest Sumba, Indonesia. This pre-post study was conducted in July 2016 and January 2017. Children aged 1–15 years were asked to collect stool for diagnosis of STH infection (Kato-Katz method), were measured for anthropometry status to obtain the nutritional status, and took albendazole 400 mg for three consecutive days. Data was analyzed with SPSS version 20. Prevalence of STH prior to the treatment was 95.4%: T. trichiura 85.2%, A. lumbricoides 71.6%, and hookworm 18.2%. After treatment, prevalence of STH decreased significantly (McNemar test, p<0.001) to 53.4%, (T. trichiura 39.8%, A. lumbricoides 22.7%, and hookworm 1.1%). Before treatment, 33% participants were in normal nutritional status, 47.7% underweight, and 19.3% severely underweight. After treatment, children in normal nutritional status increased to 75%, underweight children decreased to 25%, and there were no severely underweight children. In conclusion, deworming with triple-dose albendazole 400 mg is effective in improving the nutritional status of children in Perobatang Village.

Breastfeeding is essential to break the vicious cycle of under nutrition of children. This study was aimed to assess the breastfeeding practices and nutritional status of children aged one to five years in Jaffna district. The study design was descriptive cross sectional. Height, weight, haemoglobin, albumin and serum ferritin of children were measured. Structured interviewer administered questionnaire was used to obtain socio-demographic factors, breastfeeding practices and dietary pattern. Among the total of 846 children (414 boys), 64.4% (545) were exclusively breastfed for 6 months. Among 585 children who were breastfed, 55.6% were breastfed beyond two years while 12.6% were breastfed beyond three years. Working mothers (13.7%) had discontinued the exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) before the completion of six months (45.7%) when compared with the non-working mothers (67.4%). The prevalence of underweight, wasting and stunting was 33, 22 and 26% respectively. Prevalence of under nutrition was significantly high (54.2%) in non-EBF children. Prevalence of anaemia was high among non-EBF children (45.8%). Furthermore the early cessation of EBF before six months depended on the type of family (nucleated or extended) and wealth class of the households (p&lt;0.05). The rate of EBF was low in Jaffna District and duration of breastfeeding of most of the children had not reached 2 yrs. Prevalence of under nutrition was significantly high among the non-exclusively breastfed children. EBF for six months was not practised due to several factors and have contributed to high prevalence of malnutrition in Jaffna district.

Background: For many years Chiapas, Mexico's poorest state, has had the highest rate of child mortality due to intestinal infections of unknown etiology in the country. To begin identifying the infectious agents, our work determined the prevalence of intestinal parasites as well as malnutrition in children from Chiapas's three most impoverished municipalities: Pantepec, Chanal, and Larrainzar. Methodology: In this cross-sectional study, conducted between January and November 2009, we assessed the prevalence of intestinal parasites by means of coproparasitological analysis in children <5 years of age (N=250) from three of the marginalized municipalities: Pantepec, Chanal and Larrainzar. The prevalence of malnutrition was then assessed using the Mexican official norm NOM-031-SSA2-1999 and WHO criteria. We evaluated the association between age (breast-fed and pre-school children) with parasites and nutritional status. Results: Our analysis revealed the highest prevalence of intestinal parasites in children from Pantepec (62.8 %), followed by Chanal (47.3 %), and then Larrainzar (11.9 %). The nematode Ascaris lumbricoides was the most prevalent enteroparasite (33.6%). Anthropometric analysis revealed that >40% of children represented varying degrees of malnutrition and a marked constitutional delay in growth. A very high prevalence of stunting was also recorded in children from Chanal and Larrainzar (70% and 55 %, respectively). An association between infection with intestinal parasites and malnutrition was observed in Pantepec. Preschool-age children were more likely to be infected with intestinal parasites. Conclusion: Our results indicate the urgent need for interventions in order to 1) improve the nutritional status of children and 2) reduce infection rates of enteric parasites.
