Title of the Congress : Annual Roll Back Malaria,Vector Control Working Group
Title of your Abstract : Demonstrating cost-effective and sustainable larval control methods
in an urban setting as an alternative to the use of chemical methods
country : Switzerland
From : Wednesday, January 28, 2015
To : Friday, January 30, 2015
Abstract(Please copy/paste the abstract send to the congress) : The goal of the study was to demonstrate cost-effective, sustainable and alternative larval control
methods in an urban setting in the Islamic Republic of Iran for assessing the efficacy of different
coverings (straw mat and tile covered with a thin layer of concrete) and a bacterial larvicide
(bacillus thurigiensis/Bti) on water cisterns. The study design was a randomized selection of
three clusters. In the first cluster water cisterns were covered with straw mats. In the second
cluster, the intervention included covering the reservoirs with tiles (supported with metal frames)
and a thin layer of concrete while bacterial larvicide was applied in the third cluster.Seroprevalence survey: the risks of P. falciparum and P. vivax transmission in Chabahar city was
very low with evidence of limited recent transmission. None of the examined blood subsets
using light microscopy and nested-PCR assays were positive for P. vivax and/or P. falciparum
parasites.
Ongoing activities include: assessing durability and sustainability; assessing community
acceptance; conducting knowledge, attitude and practice survey following peer-to-peer
education; analysing cost-effectiveness of larval source management interventions and
planning for expansion of selected interventions to all Chabahar areas.
