Evaluating the impact of two next-generation long-lasting insecticidal nets on malaria incidence in Uganda
INTRODUCTION: Malaria remains a significant public health challenge globally, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, where progress has stalled in recent years. Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) are a critical preventive tool against malaria. This study investigated the effectiveness of newer-generation LLINs following a universal coverage campaign in Uganda. METHODS: Health facility data collected 36 months prior to LLIN distribution and 24 mo…
Who pays to treat malaria and how much? Analysis of the cost of illness, equity and economic burden of malaria in Uganda
Case management of malaria in Africa has evolved markedly over the past 20 years and updated cost estimates are needed to guide malaria control policies. We estimated the cost of malaria illness to households and the public health service and assessed the equity of these costs in Uganda. From December 2021 to May 2022, we conducted a costing exercise in eight government-run health centres covering seven sub-regions, collecting health service cost…
Mapping malaria incidence using routine health facility surveillance data in Uganda
INTRODUCTION: Maps of malaria risk are important tools for allocating resources and tracking progress. Most maps rely on cross-sectional surveys of parasite prevalence, but health facilities represent an underused and powerful data source. We aimed to model and map malaria incidence using health facility data in Uganda. METHODS: Using 24 months (2019-2020) of individual-level outpatient data collected from 74 surveillance health facilities locate…
Differential Influence of Environmental Factors on Malaria Due to Vector Control Interventions in Uganda
The influence of vector control interventions on the malaria-environment relationship need to be considered at a local scale in order to efficiently guide control programs
Resurgence of malaria in Uganda despite sustained indoor residual spraying and repeated long lasting insecticidal net distributions
Five years of sustained indoor residual spraying (IRS) of insecticide from 2014 to 2019, first using a carbamate followed by an organophosphate, was associated with a marked reduction in the incidence of malaria in five districts of Uganda. We assessed changes in malaria incidence over an additional 21 months, corresponding to a change in IRS formulations using clothianidin with and without deltamethrin. Using enhanced health facility surveillanc…
Associations between environmental covariates and temporal changes in malaria incidence in high transmission settings of Uganda
In high-malaria transmission settings, high values of environmental covariates were associated with increased cumulative IRR of malaria, with IRR peaks at variable lag times. The complex associations identified are valuable for designing strategies for early warning, prevention, and control of seasonal malaria surges and epidemics
