Barriers and facilitators to viral load suppression among adolescents and young people living with HIV receiving intensive adherence counselling in east central Uganda
Suboptimal viral load (VL) suppression among adolescents and young people living with HIV (AYPLHIV) remains a major challenge to HIV control in Uganda. Although Intensive Adherence Counselling (IAC) is implemented as a structured intervention for individuals with unsuppressed viral loads, suppression rates among AYPLHIV remain low. Evidence on the contextual factors shaping VL suppression after IAC remains limited. This study explored barriers an…
Using causal loop diagrams to examine the interrelationships between factors influencing family planning utilisation in urban east central Uganda
INTRODUCTION: Despite progress in reducing Uganda's unmet need for family planning (FP), particularly in urban areas, it remains high with notable intraurban disparities. FP services in urban settings are delivered in a complex health system, which impacts service delivery and utilisation. Acknowledging the complexity of FP utilisation in these contexts, this study adopted a systems thinking approach, using causal loop diagrams (CLDs), to examine…
Female sex worker preferences for HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis delivery in Uganda
Cisgender female sex workers (FSWs) in sub-Saharan Africa have a high risk of HIV acquisition, highlighting the need for innovative approaches to expand coverage of evidence-based HIV prevention methods, including oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Our study aimed to identify FSWs’ preferences for a PrEP delivery model with structured choices for delivery location, services offered, and adherence support. We conducted a discrete choice experim…
Level of and factors associated with optimal uptake of intermittent preventive treatment for malaria in pregnancy at private-not-for-profit health facilities in Kasese district
Malaria in pregnancy poses a high risk of poor maternal and neonatal outcomes and WHO recommends IPTp. However, its uptake has remained sub-optimal among mothers who attend antenatal care at private-not-for-profit health facilities. This study determined the level of and factors associated with uptake Intermittent preventive treatment of malaria for pregnant women (IPTp) at private-not-for-profit (PNFP) health facilities in Kasese District, Ugand…
Village health team-delivered oral HIV self-testing increases linkage-to-care and antiretroviral-therapy initiation among men in Uganda
Targeted strategies are central to increasing HIV-status awareness and progress on the care cascade among men. We implemented Village-Health-Team (VHT)-delivered HIV self-testing (HIVST) among men in a peri-urban Ugandan district and assessed linkage to confirmatory-testing, antiretroviral-therapy (ART) initiation and HIV-status disclosure following HIVST. We conducted a prospective cohort study from November 2018 to June 2019 and enrolled 1628 m…
Factors Associated with Utilisation of Couple HIV Counselling and Testing Among HIV-Positive Adults in Kyoga Fishing Community Uganda, May 2017
An assessment of Makerere University College of Health Sciences
BACKGROUND: Health research is critical to the institutional mission of the Makerere College of Health Sciences (MakCHS). Optimizing the alignment of health research capacity at MakCHS with the health needs and priorities of Uganda, as outlined in the country's Health Sector Strategic Plan (HSSP), is a deliberate priority, a responsibility, and a significant opportunity for research. To guide this strategic direction, an assessment of MakCHS's re…
