  • Evaluating the impact of two next-generation long-lasting insecticidal nets on malaria incidence in Uganda

    Open AccessA Epstein, Samuel Gonahasa et al.ARTICLEBMJ Global Health2025

    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

    Open AccessKatherine Snyman, Cassady Pitt et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2025

    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…

  • Dramatic resurgence of malaria after 7 years of intensive vector control interventions in Eastern Uganda

    Open AccessMoses R Kamya, Joaniter I Nankabirwa et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    Tororo District, Uganda experienced a dramatic decrease in malaria burden from 2015–19 during 5 years of indoor residual spraying (IRS) with carbamate (Bendiocarb) and then organophosphate (Actellic) insecticides. However, a marked resurgence occurred in 2020, which coincided with a change to a clothianidin-based IRS formulations (Fludora Fusion/SumiShield). To quantify the magnitude of the resurgence, investigate causes, and evaluate the impact …

  • Resurgence of malaria in Uganda despite sustained indoor residual spraying and repeated long lasting insecticidal net distributions

    Open AccessA Epstein, Catherine Maiteki-Sebuguzi et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2022

    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…

  • Plasmodium falciparum parasite prevalence in East Africa

    Open AccessVictor A Alegana, Peter M Macharia et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2021

    The High Burden High Impact (HBHI) strategy for malaria encourages countries to use multiple sources of available data to define the sub-national vulnerabilities to malaria risk, including parasite prevalence. Here, a modelled estimate of Plasmodium falciparum from an updated assembly of community parasite survey data in Kenya, mainland Tanzania, and Uganda is presented and used to provide a more contemporary understanding of the sub-national mal…

  • Behind the scenes of the PRIME intervention

    Open AccessDeborah DiLiberto, Deborah D DiLiberto et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2015

    BACKGROUND: In Uganda, health system challenges limit access to good quality healthcare and contribute to slow progress on malaria control. We developed a complex intervention (PRIME), which was designed to improve quality of care for malaria at public health centres. OBJECTIVE: Responding to calls for increased transparency, we describe the PRIME intervention's design process, rationale, and final content and reflect on the choices and challenge…

  • Community case management of malaria

    Open AccessKristin Banek, J Nankabirwa et al.ARTICLEHealth Policy and Planning2015Cited by: 1References: 32

    BACKGROUND: In Uganda, community services for febrile children are expanding from presumptive treatment of fever with anti-malarials through the home-based management of fever (HBMF) programme, to include treatment for malaria, diarrhoea and pneumonia through Integrated Community Case Management (ICCM). To understand the level of support available, and the capacity and motivation of community health workers to deliver these expanded services, we …
