Hard to reach populations in Uganda; An observational cohort study
REFNo: HS607ES
Aim 1-We will first determine CHP coverage and HIV incidence among hard-to-reach persons using enhanced surveillance techniques.
Aim 2-We will then characterize ongoing sources of incident HIV infection through partner tracing of newly HIV-infected participants and matched HIV-negative controls, viral phylogenetics, and sexual network analyses.
Aim 3-Finally, we will determine if state-of-the-art CHP can engage hard-to-reach populations and reduce population-level HIV incidence to a level sufficient for HIV elimination by 2030.

REFNo: HS1069ES
This proposal is designed as a sub-study nested within the ‘Zinc for Infection Prevention in Sickle cell anemia (ZIPS) trial, and has 3 specific aims –
Aim 1: To determine, using a SCD-specific testing instrument, if HRQoL outcomes of children with SCD enrolled in a clinical trial (ZIPS) differ from children with SCD who receive standard of care at the Nalufenya Sickle Cell Clinic (NSCC) in Jinja, Uganda
Aim 2: To determine, using an SCD-specific testing instrument, if HRQoL of children with SCD in the ZIPS study differs between those on zinc supplementation vs. those on placebo
Aim 3: To document caregiver perceptions regarding factors influencing HRQoL of children with SCD in the ZIPS study (those on zinc supplementation vs. those on placebo) and those receiving standard of care at the Nalufenya Sickle Cell Clinic (NSCC) in Jinja, Uganda
