Exploring the Role and Feasibility of Natural Language Processing Techniques to Improve Mental Health Services in Uganda and Tanzania
REFNo: SIR540ES
4. To evaluate the developed ASR/NLP models in a real-life, prospective pilot in the call center in Uganda (Butabika Hospital) on different aspects of call center communication and operation. Examples include voice-based IVR tree navigation, call issue escalation, and real-time summaries (dashboards) of call data based on model outputs. The exact applications will be decided upon with users during project execution, based on clinical relevance and technical feasibility (performance of the models from objective 3).,3. To develop Automatic Speech Recognition and Natural Language Processing models for transcription, translation, sentiment and emotional analysis, topic modeling (keyword spotting), and automatic communication quality assessment of call conversations. These trained models will be used in the pipeline to extract mental health indicators and markers from mental health recordings, as well as text transcripts of the call center recordings, to develop an overall scoring of patient mental health.,2. To curate and annotate mental health recordings and text datasets in English, Luganda, and Swahili. This will result in AI-ready datasets that will be used to train models to extract insights about mental health automatically. This process will also result in clear guidelines for data annotation and quality assurance, and inter- and intra-rater agreement measures when labelling data for mental health conditions.,1. To explore the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of stakeholders in regard to the use of ASR, NLP, AI, and other digital health tools in mental healthcare. From this, we shall also elicit the requirements for the design and operationalization of a mental health telephone service (call center) in Tanzania and the improvement of the existing mental health telephone service in Uganda (e.g. incorporation of ASR and NLP tools).,To explore the role and feasibility of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques in improving mental health services in Uganda and Tanzania. Our initial focus is on using these techniques to address the extant mental health data scarcity and studying the quality of conversations between patients and providers of mental health care services.,

Leveraging HIV care infrastructure for implementation of context-adapted liver cancer comprehensive control strategies in Uganda: The LC3 Study
REFNo: HS6141ES
1) To adapt and plan integration of the Liver Cancer Comprehensive Control (LC3) package into the existing HIV infrastructure and care model. Using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), we will evaluate the local context for liver cancer control among PLWH. Guided by Dynamic Adaptation Process (DAP), we will work with key stakeholders to identify and adapt implementation strategies for LC3 package delivery.
2) To evaluate the integration of the LC3 package into the existing HIV infrastructure and care model using a phased implementation strategy. We will conduct a Type II hybrid observational implementation-effectiveness trial with phased implementation in six clinics in urban and rural Uganda. Using the RE-AIM (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance) framework, the primary outcome will be increased reach of package services, with secondary outcomes including effectiveness of LC3 package in linking HBsAg-positive participants to referral care, measures of adoption, implementation (fidelity), and maintenance.
3) To identify contextual factors mediating successful integration of LC3 services into routine HIV care and maintenance/sustainability. We will use mixed-methods to identify and compare contextual elements at patient, provider, and clinic levels across high and low performing sites to inform iteration, transferability, and scale-up. We will also assess maintenance post-implementation at all six sites.
