Abstract

37 Background There is increasing evidence of the efficacy of point-of-use water filters on diarrhea 38 prevalence in numerous global settings, in both observational studies and randomized experiments. Most 39 studies, however, are focused on rural locations. Methods We use self-report household surveys to 40 monitor a set of approximately 10,000 households receiving point-of-use water filters and WASH training 41 in Kibera, Kenya. Twenty-five drinking water sources throughout the 7 neighborhoods were also selected 42 for testing of E. coli, total coliform, bacterial 16S rRNA community sequencing and metals. Albendazole 43 was provided to all households at distribution as part of the standard filter distribution protocol, with a 44
在肯尼亚基贝拉的非正式住区,使用点水过滤器改善腹泻病患病率
在观察性研究和随机实验中,越来越多的证据表明,在许多全球环境中,使用点滤水器对腹泻患病率有效。然而,大多数研究都集中在农村地区。方法:我们采用自我报告式家庭调查对肯尼亚基贝拉大约1万户家庭进行监测,这些家庭接受了使用点滤水器和WASH培训。选取7个社区的25个饮用水源进行大肠杆菌、总大肠菌群、细菌16S rRNA群落测序和金属检测。阿苯达唑43作为标准过滤器分发方案的一部分,分发给所有家庭
