摘要

Abstract Home fortification with multiple micronutrient powder (MNP) is effective in the prevention of anemia in young children. However, the impact on their vitamin A status remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of MNP on vitamin A status in young Brazilian children. A multicenter pragmatic, controlled trial was carried out in primary health centers in four Brazilian cities. In the beginning of the study, the control group (CG) consisted of children 11–14?months old ( n ?=?395) attending in routine pediatric health care. In parallel, the intervention group (IG) was composed of children 6–8?months old ( n ?=?399), in the same health centers, who followed the intervention with MNP for 2–3?months. The analysis of the effect of MNP on vitamin A status was performed by comparing the IG with the CG after a 4‐ to 6‐month follow‐up when IG children had reached the age of the controls. The prevalence of vitamin A deficiency (VAD; serum retinol 0.70?μmol/L) in the CG was 16.2%, while in the IG was 7.5%—a 55% reduction in the VAD [prevalence ratio (95% confidence interval)?=?0.45 (0.28; 0.72)]. This reduction was also significant when stratifying the study centers by coverage of the Brazilian Vitamin A Supplementation Program. The adjusted mean of vitamin A serum concentrations improved in the IG compared with CG children, with a shift to the right in the vitamin A distribution. Home fortification with MNP was effective in reducing VAD among young Brazilian children.
