Abstract Background Population-adjusted indirect comparison using parametric Simulated Treatment Comparison (STC) has had limited application to survival outcomes in unanchored settings. Matching-Adjusted Indirect (MAIC) is commonly used but does not account for violation of proportional hazards or enable extrapolations survival. We developed and applied a novel methodology STC compared overall (OS) progression-free (PFS) lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab (LEN + PEM) against nivolumab ipilimumab...
267 Background: Existing NMA in mHSPC compare treatments assuming homogeneity treatment effect modifiers across study populations. However, evidence suggests that these effects vary mHSPC. This employs the recent methods of multilevel network meta-regression (ML-NMR) and meta interpolation (NMI) to adjust for population differences predict relative estimates an ARASENS-like target population. Methods: We used a systematic literature review identify studies our on overall survival (OS)...
Introduction: In Uganda, over 43% of all pregnancies among young women (15-24 years) living with HIV are either unwanted or mistimed. Unintended account for 21.3% neonatal infections. The objective was to determine acceptability contraceptives and associated factors attending clinics inKampala.
 Methods: Between February May 2019, 450 public (Kisenyi HC IV, Kiswa III Komamboga III) in Kampala were systematically enrolled a cross sectional study interviewed using structured...
Background Although WHO recommends cotrimoxazole (CTX) discontinuation among HIV patients who have undergone immune recovery and are living in areas of low prevalence malaria, some countries including Uganda recommend CTX despite having a high malaria burden. We estimated the factors associated with parasitaemia adults attending hospital outpatient clinic before after prophylaxis. Methods Between March April 2019, 599 participants aged 18 years above, Kitgum were enrolled cross study. A...
Uganda's clinical management guidelines recommend a malaria laboratory test in all patients presenting with fever (history of or an axillary temperature ≥ 37.5 °C), and only those positive receive anti-malarial treatment. However, the current practice areas declining transmission remains unknown. This study assessed clinicians' diagnostic practices, factors associated recommending test, risk missing case when is not recommended Kampala, area Uganda.Between January March 2020, 383...

Subsequently, more cases were amongst returning international travelers as disease continued spread across country. May 14th, cholera epidemic confirmed Moroto district at time when had registered several lockdown. This study aimed describe activities during well hurdles opportunities for control encountered response.In cross-sectional...
Although microscopy remains the gold standard for malaria diagnosis, little is known about its accuracy in private health facilities Uganda. This study evaluated of microscopy, and factors associated with inaccurate smear results at Entebbe Municipality,
Abstract Objective : Human resources are vital for delivering health services, and systems cannot function effectively without sufficient numbers of skilled, motivated, well-supported workers. Job satisfaction workers is important motivation efficiency, because higher job improves both employee performance patient satisfaction. Methods This was a cross sectional study conducted between December 2020 April 2021 at the Arua Regional Referral Hospital. consecutively enrolled 219 care A...

Despite the commonality disease this region, there is a paucity studies on occurrence associated factors bacterial conjunctivitis. This study sought to determine bacteriological profile, culture, sensitivity, with among patients seen eye clinic at Mulago...
