TL;DR: The universal distribution campaign in Benin has significantly increased LLIN coverage and ownership policy in the community, and around 89% of the total of LLINs observed was in good condition.

TL;DR: Comparison of results showed substantial over-reporting of EBF by maternal recall, which suggests that actual rates of E BF are even lower than reported, thus highlighting the importance of scaling-up EBF promotion strategies.

Impact of long-lasting, insecticidal nets on anaemia and prevalence of Plasmodium falciparum among children under five years in areas with highly resistant malaria vectors
Filémon Tokponnon,Aurore Hounto Ogouyémi,Yolande Sissinto,Arthur Sovi,Virgile Gnanguenon,Sylvie Cornelie,Adicath Adéola Adéothy,Razaki Ossè,Abel Wakpo,Dina Gbénou,Mariam Oke,D. Kinde-Gazard,Immo Kleinschmidt,Martin Akogbeto,Achille Massougbodji +14 more
TL;DR: The results of this study showed that the resistance of malaria vectors seems to date not have affected the impact of LLIns and the use of LLINs was highly associated with reduced malaria prevalence irrespective of resistance.

TL;DR: This study in Benin's Aguégués, Sô-Ava, and N'dali municipalities found urinary bilharzia prevalence ranging from 11.88% to 34.53% in 415 school-aged children, with significant associations with agriculture, fishing, and place of residence, but not with socio-demographic factors.

TL;DR: This study found no association between frequency of resistance and incidence of clinical malaria in an area where ITNs are the principal form of vector control, because, as other studies have shown, ITNs continue to offer some protection from malaria even in the presence of insecticide resistance.
