Infant feeding and treatment practices could lead to enhanced transmission of Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) and other orally shed infections via saliva, in rural south-western Uganda
This qualitative sub-study investigated household practices affecting orally shed infections using Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) as a focus. Participants enrolled from 50 households in rural south-western Uganda were followed monthly up to three times. At enrolment, in-depth interviews were completed, and venous blood collected. KSHV seropositivity was defined as anti-KSHV antibody detection to any of 25 antigens by multiplex bea…
Contextual, structural, and mental health experiences of children of women engaged in high-risk sexual behaviour in Kampala
Children born to women who sell sex for money or commodities may face economic and social insecurity because of their mother’s work, particularly in settings where sex work is illegal. From October 2020 to May 2021, we conducted a study with 60 children aged 12–24 years, born to sex workers in Kampala, Uganda. The children took part in 60 semi-structured interviews, 20 life history interviews, and 4 focus group discussions, which were used to exp…

We conducted in-depth interviews with trial participants and surrogate decision makers and…

The care offered in some clinical trials is of a higher standard than is routinely available and this has led to criticism around the freedom of choice t…
