Abstract:
:This study examined the relationship between intestinal helminthiases and growth in urban slum schoolchildren. Children (n = 330) who received single doses of either pyrantel, albendazole, or placebo at baseline and again at 6 months were followed and examined fully at 0, 3, 6, and 12 months for helminth infections and anthropometry. Results of treatments indicated that all groups reduced their prevalence and intensity toward the period of the study. Reductions in intensity of both infections in the treatment groups were observed large in 3 and 12 months, whereas at 6 months reached mostly the initial level of infection. There was no significant difference in growth changes between the dewormed (once and twice) and the placebo groups. However, after controlling for some potential confounding factors, there was a significant relationship between reduction of A. lumbricoides infection and height gain at 3 and 12 months (both P < 0.05). In addition, there was a significant association between reduction in T. trichiura infection and increased midarm circumference at 3 and 12 months (P < 0.002 and P < 0.08, respectively). We conclude that treatment of helminth infections in school-age children may improve growth in areas where malnutrition and helminth infections are prevalent.
