The study population will comprise diverse groups of individuals relevant to the establishment of an umbilical cord blood bank for allogeneic stem cell transplantation at Uganda Blood Transfusion Service (UBTS).
Expectant Mothers:
Pregnant women aged 18 to 45 years attending antenatal clinics at selected hospitals will form the primary group. This age range represents women of reproductive age with the potential to donate umbilical cord blood. Expectant mothers from different tribes and ethnic backgrounds across Uganda will be included to ensure diversity and representativeness.
Healthcare Providers:
Participants will include medical doctors, nurses, midwives, and laboratory personnel involved in maternal and child health, blood banking, and oncology services. Their insights will be critical in understanding technical and operational needs. Both male and female providers will be included, with no age restrictions, focusing on those actively working in relevant departments.
UBTS Staff and Policymakers:
Staff from UBTS, including management and technical personnel, as well as policymakers from the Ministry of Health, will participate to provide perspectives on regulatory, logistical, and financial requirements.
Community Representatives:
Community leaders and opinion leaders from various regions and ethnic groups will also be engaged to capture cultural attitudes and perceptions about umbilical cord blood donation. |

An effectiveness-implementation trial of a peer mentorship intervention to help women navigate barriers to contraceptive use in rural Uganda
REFNo: HS7355ES
Main objective
: Our main aim is to increase women’s ability to overcome barriers to contraceptive use and to support adoption of self-injectable contraception. After promising findings in our pilot study, we propose to build on our strong, ongoing partnership between Makerere University in Uganda and the University of California, San Francisco to test “I-CAN” intervention on a larger scale.
Objectives
1. To test the effectiveness of a peer mentorship intervention on contraceptive use and contraceptive self-injection (Aim 1).
2. To examine the process of implementing I-CAN intervention; the ICAN’s reach to mentees, differential effectiveness, adoption and maintenance by mentors, implementation fidelity and innovations, and contextual factors (Aim 2)
3. To examine the cost-effectiveness of the peer mentorship intervention versus standard of care (counselling by health facility or community health workers) in supporting contraceptive use and contraceptive self-injection (Aim 3).

Evaluating the impact on 90-day survival of post-discharge follow-up strategies delivered to adult patients hospitalized with sepsis across a research network in sub-Saharan Africa [Call for Life – Sepsis (C4L-Sepsis)]
REFNo: HS6882ES
To compare baseline demographic and clinical characteristics between participants who were randomized and those who did not meet randomization criteria (screen failures),To evaluate participant quality of life at 28- and 90-days post discharge period within two study arms.,To evaluate the proportion of participants within the two study arms who require re-admission to hospital during the post-discharge period of 90 days,To evaluate proportion of participants within the two study arms who return for scheduled post discharge follow-up visits ,To evaluate the efficacy on 28-day mortality among participants hospitalized with sepsis randomized to receive one of two post discharge follow-up strategies – EDI versus EDI plus IVR tool,To evaluate the efficacy on 90-day post-discharge mortality among adult participants hospitalized with sepsis randomized to receive one of two post discharge follow-up strategies – EDI versus EDI plus IVR tool,III. To train clinical officers about vitamin D and its application in managing the co-morbidity illnesses under study. This involves training and mentoring of clinical officers so as to acquire knowledge about vitamin D especially in relation to its clinical effects and treatment of malaria, diabetes, HTN, UTIs, and post covid-19 syndrome. This will enable build enough human capacity and willingness to carry out more research about vitamin D.,To develop prototypes of the efficacy doses of vitamin D for each co- morbidity group. From objective II, the efficacy doses (values) of vitamin D will be recorded. Vitamin D prototypes containing different formulations for each co-morbidity illness will be developed. These will be in form of; solutions, powder and inhalers,To establish the efficacy of vitamin D to the co-morbidity illnesses. This involves giving different doses of vitamin D to study participants in each co- morbidity group in addition to the illness’ conventional drugs while monitoring for change using the monitors of change tests/investigations to ascertain these therapeutic effects of Vitamin D.,To develop prototypes of the efficacy doses of vitamin D for each co-morbidity group. ,To explore vitamin D’s therapeutic efficacy to the co-morbidity diseases (malaria, HTN, diabetes, UTIs and post covid-19 syndrome) under study,III. To train clinical officers about vitamin D and its application in managing the co-morbidity illnesses under study. ,II. To develop prototypes of the efficacy doses of vitamin D for each co-morbidity group,I. To establish the efficacy of vitamin D to the co-morbidity illnesses,To explore vitamin D’s therapeutic efficacy to the co-morbidity diseases (malaria, HTN, diabetes, UTIs and post covid-19 syndrome) under study. ,III.

This will be achieved by clinical application of vitamin D, assessing and monitoring its effect in the treatment of the respective comorbidity illness as well as developing of different formulations of vitamin D that had effect in each co-morbidity group. ,
