The prevalence of STH in Indonesia in general is still very high at 60%, especially in the underprivileged population who have a high risk of contracting this disease. STH infection showed an association with zinc concentration. Factors inuencing child growth differ between populations and may depend on prevalences of STH species and zinc deciency. This study was a randomized, non-disguise clinical trial conducted to assess zinc effectiveness on differences of weight and height of children after infection with the Soil Transmitted Helminth (STH) in February-May 2017. All data is recorded in the status of the study, collected and then processed using SPSS 16.0 for Windows computer software.
