Effect of vitamin A supplementation on morbidity due to <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> in young children in Papua New Guinea: a randomised trial (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Many individuals at risk of malaria also have micronutrient deficiencies that may hamper protective immunity. Vitamin A is central to normal immune function, and supplementation has been shown [...] morbidity of some infectious diseases. We investigated the effect of vitamin A supplementation on malaria morbidity. METHODS: This randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trial of vitamin A supplementation [...] randomly assigned high-dose vitamin A (n=239) or placebo (n=241), every 3...
