A shortcoming has been the over-reliance on pyrethroid insecticides, with more than 2·13 billion pyrethroid ITNs (PY ITNs) distributed in the past two decades, leading to widespread pyrethroid resistance. Progressive changes are occurring, with increased deployment of more effective pyrethroid-chlorfenapyr (PY-CFP) or pyrethroid-piperonyl butoxide (PY-PBO) ITNs in areas of pyrethroid resistance. In 2023, PY-PBO ITNs accounted for 58% of all ITNs shipped to sub-Saharan Africa. PY-PBO and PY-CFP ITNs are 30–37% more expensive than standard PY ITNs, equating to an additional US$132–159 million required per year in sub-Saharan Africa to fund the shift to more effective ITNs. Several countries are withdrawing or scaling back indoor residual spraying (IRS) programmes to cover the shortfall, which is reflected by the number of structures sprayed by the US President's Malaria Initiative decreasing by 30% from 5·67 million (2021) to 3·96 million (2023). Benin, located in West Africa, is a prime example of a country that ceased IRS in 2021 after 14 years of annual spraying. Our economic evaluation indicates that IRS in Benin cost $3·50 per person protected per year, around five times more per person protected per year compared with PY-PBO ($0·73) or PY-CFP ITNs ($0·76). Although costly to implement, a major advantage of IRS is the portfolio of at least three chemical classes for prospective resistance management. With loss of synergy to PBO developing rapidly, there is the danger of over-reliance on PY-CFP ITNs. As gains in global malaria control continue to reverse each year, current WHO projections estimate that key 2030 malaria incidence milestones will be missed by a staggering 89%. This Personal View explores contemporary malaria vector control trends in sub-Saharan Africa and cost implications for improved disease control and resistance management.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48548,"journal":{"name":"Lancet Planetary Health","volume":"8 10","pages":"Pages e804-e812"},"PeriodicalIF":24.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142407049","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ENID trial assessed micronutrient supplementation in the first 1000 days of life starting from 20 weeks’ gestation, during which anthropometric measurements were collected prospectively. We used multivariable linear regression to assess the effect of heat stress (defined by Universal Thermal Climate Index [UTCI]) on intrauterine growth restriction based on length-for-gestational age Z score (LGAZ), weight-for-gestational age Z score (WGAZ), and head circumference-for-gestational age Z score (HCGAZ) at birth, and assessed for effect modification of supplement intervention on the relationship between heat stress and infant anthropometry. We used multivariable, multilevel linear regression to evaluate the effect of heat stress on infant growth postnatally based on weight-for-height Z score (WHZ), weight-for-age Z score (WAZ), and height-for-age Z score (HAZ) from 0 to 2 years of age.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Findings&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;Complete data were available for 668 livebirth outcomes (329 [49%] female infants and 339 [51%] male infants). With each 1°C increase in mean daily maximum UTCI exposure, in the first trimester, we observed a reduction in WGAZ (–0·04 [95% CI –0·09 to 0·00]), whereas in the third trimester, we observed an increase in HCGAZ (0·06 [95% CI 0·00 to 0·12]), although 95% CIs included 0. Maternal protein-energy supplementation in the third trimester was associated with reduced WGAZ (–0·16 [–0·30 to –0·02]) with each 1°C increase in mean daily maximum UTCI exposure, while no effect of heat stress on WGAZ was found with either standard care (iron and folate) or multiple micronutrient supplementation. For the postnatal analysis, complete anthropometric data at 2 years were available for 645 infants (316 [49%] female infants and 329 [51%] male infants). Postnatally, heat stress effect varied by infant age, with infants aged 6–18 months being the most affected.
