Background  It was unclear how and to what extent the “Child Care” intervention (CCI) in rural Primary Health Care Program affected the prevalence of childhood diarrhea in rural western China.    Methods  The available data of 10,829 and 10,682 households was collected from shared 34 counties of 9 provinces of western China in 2001 and 2005 respectively. A log-binomial regression model was used to predict the effect of CCI on prevalence of childhood diarrhea.    Results  In 2001, the prevalence rate of diarrhea among children less than 36 months of age was 17.01% in intervention group and 17.72% in control group, and in 2005 this crude rate declined to 4.85% in the former and 6.84% in the latter. Log-binomial regression analysis showed that CCI decreased the overall prevalence of childhood diarrhea by 27% (adjusted relative prevalence ratio ( r PR) = 0.73 95% CI 0.59, 0.89). The stratification regression by social-economic status (SES) of the households showed that this effect varied with SES of the households. In the medium or rich households, this intervention was effective significantly (the medium: adjusted  r PR = 0.63,95%CI 0.41,0.95; the rich: adjusted  r PR = 0.72,95%CI 0.54,0.97), but in poor households it seemed to be less effective (adjusted  r PR = 0.86,95%CI 0.55,1.36).    Conclusion  In rural Primary Health Care Program, CCI was effective in improving childhood diarrhea but this effect was inequitable among SES of the households. So, attention should be paid to the inequality when CCI was adopted to reduce childhood diarrhea in rural China.
