Strengthening capacity for clinical trial monitoring in the East African community
BACKGROUND: The expanding volume and increasing complexity of clinical research in East Africa, driven by emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases, has increased the need for strong regulatory monitoring systems. Clinical trials must be monitored to ensure regulatory compliance and participant safety. Despite strengthened regulatory and ethical frameworks in the region, gaps in trial monitoring persist due to a shortage of adequately trained …
The epidemiology and outcomes of adults with acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure in a low-income country in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic
BACKGROUND: Few data regarding the incidence and outcomes of acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure (AHRF) in low- and middle-income countries exist. METHODS: We undertook a prospective, observational multicentre study at 11 Ugandan hospitals (July 2020-April 2021) to determine the prevalence, aetiology and 28-day all-cause mortality of AHRF (acute shortness of breath plus peripheral oxygen saturation 30 breaths per minute (aRR 2.39 (95% CI 1.34 to…
Health worker' perceptions of risks, barriers to and facilitators of long-acting injectable antiretroviral therapy delivery to women for prevention of vertical transmission programs
This study examines the perceptions and experiences of health workers and caregivers regarding the delivery of long-acting antiretroviral therapy (LA-ART) in Uganda, especially for preventing vertical transmission of HIV. Using a qualitative implementation research design informed by the Health Belief Model, the researchers conducted 17 key informant interviews with clinicians, nurses, peer mothers, social workers, department heads, and lead rese…
Hepatitis B vaccination status and associated factors among people living with HIV in Gulu, Uganda
We found low coverage of hepatitis B vaccination among PWH attending Gulu Regional Referral Hospital. Hepatitis B vaccination programs should target PWH living in rural areas, with a low level of education and with no family history of hepatitis B to educate them about HBV vaccine to increase coverage
