Description

Dataset and supporting documentation collected as part of the Entebbe Mother and Baby Study (EMaBS), a clinical trial that investigated potential benefits of treating worm infections during pregnancy and early childhood. The dataset contains variables collected from mothers (at registration) and infants (when the child was one-year of age), including maternal age, education, parity and infection status (malaria, S. mansoni, hookworm, filariasis), and infant sex and immune responses (to HiB, diphtheria, Hepatitis B, pertussis, FHA, pertactin).

Methods

Description of data capture

Data was collected as part of a randomised control trial, ISRCTN32849447.

All personal identifiable variables have been removed, including maternal date of birth, infant date of birth, home location and dates of vaccinations.
