NCT ID NCT07332078

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether a low-cost food storage cabinet called a "meatsafe" could reduce diarrhea in children aged 6 to 24 months in low-income areas of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Researchers compared households that received the cabinet and food safety education to those that did not. They measured bacteria in stored food and tracked diarrhea cases. The goal was to see if this simple tool could help keep food safer and reduce illness where refrigeration is not available.
