Health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) of Ugandan children with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD): A comparative study of HRQoL outcomes in the Zinc for Infection Prevention (ZIPS) trial and at the Nalufenya Sickle Cell Clinic (NSCC)
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

Explorative investigation of the burden and risk factors of uvula infections and associated traditional uvulectomy practices in Luwero district and surrounding areas
REFNo: HS1167ES
OBJECTIVES
The overarching objective of this explorative research study is to investigate and document, in a scientifically sound manner, the condition called “akamiroâ€; determine the case definition, describe its general epidemiology including the beliefs and perceptions around it and the traditional surgical procedure, and commence etiological investigations.
Our proposed specific objectives are;
1. To determine the clinical case definition of the uvula infections called “akamiro†– general and age-specific case definitions for infants, children, adolescents and adults.
2. To investigate major risk factors of uvula infections /“akamiroâ€.
3. To determine the magnitude and associated factors of uvula infections /“akamiroâ€, and geo-map its spread.
4. To determine the prevalence of traditional uvulectomy and its outcomes and sequelae.
5. To establish the community beliefs, perceptions and practices associated with “akamiroâ€.
