HIP SURVEILLANCE IN PAEDIATRIC PATIENTS WITH CEREBRAL PALSY AT CoRSU REHABILITATION HOSPITAL
REFNo: HS5220ES
Primary objective
1. To assess the feasibility of implementing a hip surveillance program in detecting early signs of displacement among cerebral palsy patients attending CoRSU hospital in 2024-2025
2. To determine the incidence of hip dislocation in patients with cerebral palsy seen at CoRSU hospital in 2024-2025
Secondary objectives
1. To assess changes in the QOL of life of children after joining the hip surveillance program on hip displacement among children with cerebral palsy seen at CoRSU hospital in 2024-2025
2. To develop a standard for frequency of pelvic x-rays for children with cerebral palsy seen at CoRSU hospital in 2024-2025
3. To evaluate the benefits and complications of early intervention measures on reducing hip displacement cerebral palsy seen at CoRSU hospital in 2024-2025

Sub-Study D – Evaluation of Point-of-Care C-reactive Protein Assay Performed on the EnLiSense Rapid ElectroAnalytical Device (READ) Platform Among a Subset of Patients Enrolled in an Observational Study of Sepsis in Uganda
REFNo: HS5172ES
To validate the CRP assay performed on the READ platform by comparing it to a point-of-care conventional CRP assay previously cleared by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The results from this substudy are intended to be used for a FDA 510(k) submission for the EnLiSense READ device and CRP assay

Development of Comprehensive Seismic Design Guidelines for Earthquake Resistant Design of Buildings in Uganda
REFNo: SIR390ES
(e) To develop comprehensive national structural design guidelines based on modern seismic design codes, aimed at providing engineering practitioners with practical seismic risk mitigation techniques; subsequently leading to sustainable growth and development,(d) To derive spectral displacement, elastic and design pseudo-acceleration spectra representing seismic action in the horizontal direction for key building typologies located in major cities in Uganda,(c) To develop reliable bespoke building exposure models for risk calculations by gathering data on building stock taxonomies and occupancy types,(b) To perform a stochastic event-based probabilistic seismic hazard analysis for Uganda which relies on the available data collected on the seismicity, geology and tectonics of the country,(a) To compile Uganda historical and instrumental earthquake catalogues required for homogenisation, removal of non-Poissonian events and completeness analyses,The main objective of this research proposal is to develop comprehensive earthquake-resistant building design guidelines specifically tailored for Uganda\'s unique geological, seismo-tectonic conditions and available construction materials. These guidelines will facilitate the construction of buildings that can withstand earthquakes, thereby reducing the potential for damage and casualties during seismic events.,

A One Health Survey of AMR and farming practices that drive Antimicrobial Resistance at Selected Animal-Human-environment Interface in Uganda
REFNo: A539ES
General Objective: To build capacity for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance and AMR stewardship using a One Health approach.
Specific Objectives:
1. To isolate the AMR resistant E coli and Salmonella from slaughtered chicken, slaughtered cattle and the environment.
2. To determine the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of Salmonella and pathogenic E. coli present in selected human-animal interfaces in Uganda.
3. To determine the changes in the antimicrobial use by farmers and Veterinarians during COVID19 pandemic.
4. To determine the roles played by different livestock management practices and animal health interventions in escalating AMR in Uganda.
5. To identify and evaluate community based hygienic and disinfection practices that can reduce antibiotic/biocide use.
6. To determine the levels of antimicrobials and biocide residues in slaughtered chicken and cattle cecal samples and abattoir/market wastewater from the selected districts in the country.
Secondary objectives:
To harness the functions of various policy makers in government institution and build capacity and partnerships for AMR reduction with different organisations within Uganda.
