Rapid shifts in the age‑specific burden of malaria following successful control interventions in four regions of Uganda
(BMC, 2020)
Background: Malaria control using long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying of insecticide
(IRS) has been associated with reduced transmission throughout Africa. However, the impact of transmission ...
Malaria diagnosed in an urban setting strongly associated with recent overnight travel: A case–control study from Kampala, Uganda
(2020)
Malaria is frequently diagnosed in urban Kampala, despite low transmission intensity. To evaluate the association between recent travel out of Kampala and malaria, we conducted a matched case–control study. Cases were ...
Practical implications of a relationship between health management information system and community cohort–based malaria incidence rates
(2020)
Global malaria burden is reducing with effective control interventions, and surveillance is vital to maintain
progress. Health management information system (HMIS) data provide a powerful surveillance tool; however, its ...
Challenges and opportunities for use of long‑lasting insecticidal nets to prevent malaria during overnight travel in Uganda: a qualitative study
(BioMed Central, 2021)
Background: Travel is a well‑recognized risk factor for malaria. Within sub‑Saharan Africa, travelers from areas of lower to higher transmission intensity are potentially at high risk of malaria. Long‑lasting insecticidal ...
