Appraising the Critical Role of prognostic Biomakers in the Assesment and Triage of sick African newborns advancing a point-of-care device (ACROBAT)
REFNo: HS8441ES
To determine the analytical performance of rttPoC to measure baseline proposed biomarker levels compared to gold-standard laboratory techniques.,To determine the prognostic performance of rttPoC performed at baseline in predicting other adverse outcomes (i.e. invasive bacterial disease, length of hospitalisation in regular wards, in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and/or other applicable wards, unscheduled visit to healthcare, readmission, discharge with a severe diagnosis or sequelae) up to 48 hours, 7 days, 28 days, and 90 days in sick neonates at neonatal, maternity, and emergency wards. ,To determine the prognostic performance of rttPoC performed at baseline to predict escalation of care or death up to 48 hours, 7 days, and 90 days in sick neonates at neonatal, maternity, and emergency wards. ,To determine the prognostic performance of rttPoC performed at baseline to predict escalation of care or death up to 28 days in all-cause sick neonates presenting at neonatal, maternity, and emergency wards in hospitals of four Sub-Saharan African countries.,To evaluate the performance of rttPoC, a rapid prognostic test based on the quantification of a proposed biomarker (sTREM-1, suPAR or other) levels, to risk stratify all-cause sick neonates across neonatal, maternity, and emergency wards in hospitals of four Sub-Saharan African countries.,

Recommendations for Learning Management Systems Usage and e-learning Quality in Ugandan Higher Education Institutions
REFNo: SS5815ES
The theoretical secondary objectives are:
– to establish the effect of behavioural intention on the usage behaviour of the LMS at the institute
– to establish the effect of performance expectancy on behavioural intention to use the LMS at the institute as moderated by gender and age
– to establish the effect of effort expectancy on behavioural intention to use the LMS at the institute as moderated by gender, age and experience
– to establish the effect of the social influence on behavioural intention to use the LMS at the institute as moderated by gender, age and experience
– to establish the effect of the facilitating conditions on use behaviour as moderated by age and experience
The empirical primary objectives are:
– to establish the effect of the performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence and facilitating conditions on the quality of e-learning at the institute.
– to establish other factors that affect the behaviour intention and use behaviour of the LMS at the institute
