Registered outcomes6

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPrevalence of Microfilaria in Blood as Determined by Microscopy of Participant Blood3 years
Microfilariae (filarial parasites) will be detected in blood smears by microscopy. Samples will be collected in annual and semiannual community surveys. Prevalence rates (a measure of the disease rates in the population sampled) are expressed as % positive for microfilaremia (having microfilaria in the blood).
SecondaryPrevalence of Positive Brugia Rapid Antifilarial Antibody Tests3 years
This outcome is reported as the frequency of participants with positive Brugia Rapid antifilarial antibody tests. Data was only collected at baseline and at year 3 for this outcome measure and no antibody data was collected for the Pekalongan study sites.
SecondaryPrevalence of Circulating Filarial Antigen in Blood as Determined by ICT Card Test3 yearsPrevalence of filarial antigenemia (detected with the Binax Filariasis Now card test "ICT" card test) among the population surveyed. Prevalence data are expressed as %.
SecondaryPrevalence of Ascaris Infection2 YearsPrevalence of Ascaris infection is defined by the number of participants with any Ascaris worm eggs present in their stool sample as analyzed with microscopy.
SecondaryPrevalence of Hookworm Infection2 yearsPrevalence of hookworm infection is defined by the number of participants with any hookworm eggs present in their stool sample as analyzed with microscopy.
SecondaryPrevalence of Trichuris Infection2 yearsPrevalence of trichuris infection is defined by the number of participants with any trichuris worm eggs present in their stool sample as analyzed with microscopy.

Outcomes6

Each outcome the trial posted results for, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

TypeOutcomeTime framePopulationUnitsMeasured as
PRIMARYPrevalence of Microfilaria in Blood as Determined by Microscopy of Participant Blood3 years
The Pekalongan study sites were dropped after the first year due to lower than expected prevalence of lymphatic filariasis infections. The overall number of participants analyzed for each group may be slightly less than the total sample size for that group due to the fact that not all data was collected for all participants.
ParticipantsCOUNT_OF_PARTICIPANTS
SECONDARYPrevalence of Positive Brugia Rapid Antifilarial Antibody Tests3 years
This outcome data was only collected at baseline and at year 3 for Paga \& Pruda and no antibody data was collected at all for the Pekalongan study sites. The overall number of participants analyzed for each group may be less than the total sample size for that group due to the fact that not all data was collected for all participants.
ParticipantsCOUNT_OF_PARTICIPANTS
SECONDARYPrevalence of Circulating Filarial Antigen in Blood as Determined by ICT Card Test3 years
This outcome data was not collected for Paga at year 3 or for Pekalongan sites after year 1 (Pekalongan study site was dropped completely after year 1). The overall number of participants analyzed for each group may be less than the total sample size for that group due to the fact that not all data was collected for all participants.
ParticipantsCOUNT_OF_PARTICIPANTS
SECONDARYPrevalence of Ascaris Infection2 Years
The Pekalongan study sites were dropped after the first year. No soil transmitted helminth infection data was collected after year 2. The overall number of participants analyzed for each group may be slightly less than the total sample size for that group due to the fact that not all data was collected for all participants.
ParticipantsCOUNT_OF_PARTICIPANTS
SECONDARYPrevalence of Hookworm Infection2 years
Hookworm prevalence was not analyzed for Pekalongan sites. Hookworm data was not collected after year 2 for any sites. The overall number of participants analyzed for each group may be slightly less than the total sample size for that group due to the fact that not all data was collected for all participants.

SECONDARYPrevalence of Trichuris Infection2 years
