“…This is consistent with what was earlier reported by Lewis 11 that S. damnosum in Mvolo bit from before dawn till after sunset and usually more during the 2 h before sunset than other times. These findings are in agreement with other studies conducted in Maridi, 14 Nigeria, 28 and Sudan. 27 It has been reported that hourly biting patterns varied among sibling species.…”

“…A combination of cross-sectional and longitudinal compliance was reported by 13 studies, whereby compliance to a defined (43–50) or undefined (51–55) number of rounds were reported, alongside compliance at the latest round of MDA. Four of these studies defined compliance in line with the definitions considered for this review (45,51–53).…”

Repeated rounds of mass drug administration are the mainstay of transmission control for five of the 20 recognised neglected tropical diseases (NTDs); soil-transmitted helminths, schistosomiasis, lymphatic filariasis, onchocerciasis and trachoma. MDA programme efficiency is reliant upon participants swallowing treatment consistently at each treatment round, measured by the parameter compliance; the proportion of eligible participants swallowing treatment. Individually linked longitudinal compliance data is crucial for assessing MDA programmes, as such data will elucidate treatment behaviour patterns. Accurate monitoring of compliance across species will require the unanimous acceptance of epidemiological parameters across the research community. This review aims to update the review previously completed by Shuford et al (2016), which predominantly highlighted the interchange of parameters coverage (receiving treatment) and compliance (swallowing treatment). This review aims to find to collect the latest longitudinal compliance data reported by control programmes globally for the five MDA controllable species, searching PubMed and Web of Science in January 2022 for articles written since 2016 in English and Spanish. The review adhered to PRISMA guidelines and is registered with PROSPERO (registration number: CRD42022301991). Study title screening was aided by Rayyan, a machine learning software. Studies were considered for inclusion if primary compliance data for more than one time point, in a population larger than 100 participants were identified. All data analysis was conducted in R. A total of 89 studies were identified containing compliance data, 57 were longitudinal studies, 25 of which reported individually linked data which were analysed further. The association of increasing age with systematic treatment during was commonly reported. The review is limited by paucity of data. It is recommended for WHO to clearly define coverage, compliance, and longitudinal compliance in their treatment guides. Current definitions for species-specific guides contradict each other which may influence the incongruency seen definitions seen in this review.

“…A combination of cross-sectional and longitudinal compliance was reported by 13 studies, whereby compliance to a defined [43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50] or undefined [51][52][53][54][55] number of rounds were reported, alongside compliance at the latest round of MDA. Four of these studies defined compliance in line with the definitions considered for this review [45,[51][52][53]. Setting a high reporting standard, Osei et al (2022) [53], Oswald et al (2016) [17] and Krentel et al (2016) [55] provided comprehensive demographic and descriptive factors and associations with receiving, and swallowing MDA through bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis.…”

Individual longitudinal compliance to neglected tropical disease mass drug administration programmes, a systematic review

et al. 2023

Repeated distribution of preventative chemotherapy (PC) by mass drug administration forms the mainstay of transmission control for five of the 20 recognised neglected tropical diseases (NTDs); soil-transmitted helminths, schistosomiasis, lymphatic filariasis, onchocerciasis and trachoma. The efficiency of such programmes is reliant upon participants swallowing the offered treatment consistently at each round. This is measured by compliance, defined as the proportion of eligible participants swallowing treatment. Individually linked longitudinal compliance data is important for assessing the potential impact of MDA-based control programmes, yet this accurate monitoring is rarely implemented in those for NTDs. Longitudinal compliance data reported by control programmes globally for the five (PC)-NTDs since 2016 is examined, focusing on key associations of compliance with age and gender. PubMed and Web of Science was searched in January 2022 for articles written in English and Spanish, and the subsequent extraction adhered to PRISMA guidelines. Study title screening was aided by Rayyan, a machine learning software package. Studies were considered for inclusion if primary compliance data was recorded for more than one time point, in a population larger than 100 participants. All data analysis was conducted in R. A total of 89 studies were identified containing compliance data, 57 were longitudinal studies, of which 25 reported individually linked data reported by varying methods. The association of increasing age with the degree of systematic treatment was commonly reported. The review is limited by the paucity of data published on this topic. The varying and overlapping terminologies used to describe coverage (receiving treatment) and compliance (swallowing treatment) is reviewed. Consequently, it is recommended that WHO considers clearly defining the terms for coverage, compliance, and longitudinal compliance which are currently contradictory across their NTD treatment guidelines. This review is registered with PROSPERO (number: CRD42022301991).
