“Building the boat while sailing” – adapting towards telementoring literacy
BACKGROUND: As telemedicine becomes a core component of modern healthcare, its effective application involves more than just the use of digital tools. An evolving skill set is required for current and future clinicians to adapt to this environment. Telementoring is a subset of telemedicine that involves clinician-to-clinician interaction, providing remote expert guidance in clinical care and medical education, with the potential to reduce global …
Diagnostic accuracy study of the multiplex Truenat MTB Ultima/Covid-19 assay for simultaneous detection of Tuberculosis and Sars-CoV2 (Covid-19)
The COVID-19 pandemic led to significantly disrupted tuberculosis case detection and management. Additionally, overlapping symptoms, radiological findings and risk factors make differentiating tuberculosis and COVID-19 disease difficult. We conducted a prospective multicentre diagnostic accuracy study to determine sensitivity, specificity and operational characteristics of the Truenat MTB Ultima/COVID-19 assay, using a combined sputum plus nasoph…
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…
Tuberculosis laboratory capacity building in the WHO African Region
Tuberculosis remains a leading infectious disease killer in the World Health Organization African Region, with 2.5 million cases and 404,000 deaths in 2023, including 112,000 people with HIV. There is slow progress with only 42% of the 75% targeted reduction in death by 2025. Out of 60,266 estimated multidrug-resistant TB cases in 2023, only 22,515 were notified. Laboratory diagnostic services in the African region still need urgent attention. By…
Workshop-based learning and networking
Science education and research have the potential to drive profound change in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) through encouraging innovation, attracting industry, and creating job opportunities. However, in LMICs, research capacity is often limited, and acquisition of funding and access to state-of-the-art technologies is challenging. The Alliance for Global Health and Science (the Alliance) was founded as a partnership between the Unive…
Unlocking the health system barriers to maximise the uptake and utilisation of molecular diagnostics in low-income and middle-income country setting
BACKGROUND: Early access to diagnosis is crucial for effective management of any disease including tuberculosis (TB). We investigated the barriers and opportunities to maximise uptake and utilisation of molecular diagnostics in routine healthcare settings. METHODS: /rifampicin (MTB/RIF) and Line Probe Assay (LPA) as a benchmark, we evaluated the barriers and how they could be unlocked to maximise uptake and utilisation of molecular diagnostics. R…
The role of medical equipment in the spread of nosocomial infections
These results provides strong support for strengthening overall disinfection/sterilization practices around medical equipment use in public health facilities in Uganda. There's also need for further research to make a direct link to the bacterial isolates identified and cases of infections recorded among patients in similar settings
Tuberculosis risk factors among tuberculosis patients in Kampala, Uganda
Among TB patients in Kampala, Uganda, there is high prevalence of the known TB risk factors. Targeting reducing their prevalence may lead to better TB control in the country. Tuberculosis, risk factors, Uganda
Antibacterial activities of extracts from Ugandan medicinal plants used for oral care
Antiretroviral Prophylaxis for HIV Prevention in Heterosexual Men and Women
BACKGROUND: Antiretroviral preexposure prophylaxis is a promising approach for preventing human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in heterosexual populations. METHODS: We conducted a randomized trial of oral antiretroviral therapy for use as preexposure prophylaxis among HIV-1-serodiscordant heterosexual couples from Kenya and Uganda. The HIV-1-seronegative partner in each couple was randomly assigned to one of three study regimens-…
