Effectiveness of insecticide-treated and untreated nets to prevent malaria in India† [PDF]
Tropical Medicine and International Health, 2015 AbstractObjectivesIndia is the most malaria‐endemic country in South‐East Asia, resulting in a high socio‐economic burden. Insecticide‐treated or untreated nets are effective interventions to prevent malaria. As part of an Indian first‐aid guideline project, we aimed to investigate the magnitude of this effect in India.MethodsWe searchedMEDLINE, Embase

Field issues related to effectiveness of insecticide-treated nets in Tanzania
Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 2004Abstract. Insecticide‐treated nets (ITNs) impregnated with pyrethroid insecticides have become one of the most promising interventions to prevent malaria in highly endemic areas. Despite the large body of experience documenting their health impact and the best way to distribute them, some key practical issues ...

Malaria remains one of the world’s most significant health and development problems. More than 2.4 billion of the world’s population residing in 100 countries or territories are at risk of malaria. This results in an estimated 300−500 million clinical cases each year, 90% of which occur in Africa south of the Sahara Desert. 1 In these high-burden areas

Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) are the most powerful malaria control tool to be developed since the advent of indoor residual spraying (IRS) and chloroquine in the 1940s, and as such they have been an important component of global and national malaria control policies since the mid-1990s. Yet a decade later, coverage is still unacceptably low: only 3%

Insecticide-Treated Mosquito Nets
2019The coherent and coordinated strategy put in place since the beginning of the century to fight malaria has led to a significant reduction in the global burden of the disease. Of the various elements composing this strategy, it appears that vector control and, in the first place, the massive distribution of LLIN (long-lasting impregnated nets) have ...

Insecticide treated nets, antimalarials and child survival in India
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2010Malaria has been a complex public health problem affecting mainly the poor and the rural communities in India. Insecticide treated nets (ITN) and antimalarials are the two proven interventions for prevention and control of malaria. ITN has been amply demonstrated to be an effective intervention to protect children from malaria, and in preventing deaths

The effect of insecticide-treated bed nets on mortality of Gambian children
Lancet, The, 1991Insecticide treatment of bed nets ("mosquito nets") may be a cheap and acceptable method of reducing the morbidity and mortality caused by malaria. In a rural area of The Gambia, bed nets in villages participating in a primary health-care (PHC) scheme were treated with permethrin at the beginning of the malaria transmission season.

Indoor Residual Spraying in Combination with Insecticide-Treated Nets Compared to Insecticide-Treated Nets Alone for Protection against Malaria: A Cluster Randomised Trial in Tanzania [PDF]
PLoS Medicine, 2014 Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) of houses provide effective malaria transmission control. There is conflicting evidence about whether it is more beneficial to provide both interventions in combination. A cluster randomised controlled trial was conducted to investigate whether the combination provides added protection ...

Broken Promise? Taxes and Tariffs on Insecticide Treated Mosquito Nets
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2007Seven years ago, the removal of taxes and tariffs on insecticide treated nets (ITNs) was considered one of the easiest resolutions for most countries to implement among the targets agreed upon at the African Summit on Roll Back Malaria in Abuja, Nigeria, on April 25, 2000.
