Impact of the micro-research model on building research capacity in undergraduate health professions students in HIV-related research
BACKGROUND: Low-income settings such as Uganda bear a disproportionately high burden of diseases such as HIV/AIDS, but contribute little to knowledge production to address their health challenges. The training of health professionals traditionally focuses on clinical skills with less emphasis on research; yet, in practice, health professionals are expected to do operational research. In this study, we evaluate the impact of a micro-research model…
Alcohol Use Disorder in Southwestern and Northern Uganda
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) among adults is a major public health concern globally. Alcohol use disorder affects livelihood and contributes to adverse health outcomes. We investigated the prevalence of AUD and associated factors among adults (≥ 18years) in Lira and Isingiro districts in Uganda. This was a cross-sectional study conducted among adults (≥18 years) in households, selected using multistage sampling. Data were collected using an intervi…
In vitro antiplasmodial activity, acute toxicity and phytochemical quantification of selected medicinal plants used for the management of uncomplicated malaria in eastern Uganda
Scale, Depth and Duration
The study analyses robust, causal evidence of transformational change. We approach this topic by systematically reviewing literature that has the potential to document causal evidence for transformational change across a broad set of interventions and outcomes. Our focus is on evidence found in developing countries to inform climate interventions. We approach this learning exercise directly by looking at the energy sector and indirectly by review…
The Effectiveness of Indoor Residual Spraying for Malaria Control in Sub-Saharan Africa
The findings of this review will help generate evidence on the effectiveness of indoor residual spraying using WHO pre-qualified insecticides in malaria control in sub-Saharan Africa. This protocol was registered in PROSPERO, registration number CRD42024517119
General knowledge and attitude of healthcare professionals and infrastructural readiness prior to implementation of malaria vaccine in selected hospitals in Tororo district, Uganda
The knowledge gap coupled with negative attitudes on malaria vaccine were prevalent among all healthcare professionals prior to the roll-out of R21 vaccine in Tororo district. There was limited preparedness as regards the infrastructure required for the malaria vaccine implementation. The Ministry of Health should consider conducting targeted training programs for all healthcare professionals and provision of additional essential infrastructure t…
Antibiotic use among children under five years with diarrhea in rural communities of Gulu, northern Uganda
Antibiotic use is common among children under 5 years with diarrhea in rural communities of northern Uganda
Medicine use practices in management of symptoms of acute upper respiratory tract infections in children (≤12 years) in Kampala city, Uganda
Children are commonly given multiple medicines during episodes of acute upper respiratory tract infections with most antimicrobial agents accessed and used without a prescription in Kampala city, Uganda
Factors predicting home storage of medicines in Northern Uganda
Over a third of households in Northern Uganda store medicines with antibacterial agents being the most common. Self-medication is common among individuals in households which keep drugs. Past successful treatment, regular income and sex predict community home drug storage
