Attractive targeted sugar baits for malaria control in western Kenya (ATSB-Kenya): enrolment characteristics of cohort children and households
In western Kenya, the burden of malaria in children remains high. Most households owned a bed net, but coverage was inadequate. Residents of Alego-Usonga sub-county, those living in traditionally constructed households, and older children were more likely to test positive by RDT. Additional tools are needed to effectively control malaria in this area. Trial registration The ATSB trial is registered under Clinicaltrials.gov NCT05219565.
