Prevalence of Intestinal Nematodes Among Children Below Ten Years Attending Kiwoko Hospital Pediatric Unit, Kasana, Nakaseke, District, Uganda PrEVALENCE OF INTESTINAL Nematodes AMONG ChildrEN BELOW TEN YEARS ATTENDING KiwokO Hospital Pediatric Unit, Kasana, Nakaseke, District, Uganda. Henry Pecos NvuleA A Faculty OF Health Sciences , Uganda Martyrs University, Uganda AbstrACT Background:A INTESTINAL NEMATODES ARE AMONG THE MOST COMMON PARASITES INFECTING HUMANS IN DEVELOPING countries, PRECISE ESTIMATES OF THE POPULATIONS AT RISK OF INFECTION ARE DIffiCULT TO derive. TherEFORE TO UNDERSTAND THE DISEASE BURDEN THERE IS A NEED FOR RELIABLE DATA ON THE PREVALENCE OF INFECTION AS WELL AS INFORMATION ON THE RISK FACTORS OF infection. Methodology: 99 STOOL SAMPLES WERE COLLECTED FROM CHILDREN WHO PRESENTED WITH diarrhea, FEver, ITCHY ANUS OPENING ALL SYMPTOMS OF INTESTINAL NEMATODE infection. Stool SAMPLES WERE SCREENED USING THE DIRECT SALINE method. Samples NEGATIVE BY DIRECT SALINE WERE FURTHER EXAMINED USING THE FORMAL ETHER TECHNIQUE AND STAINED BY EOSIN FOR VISUALIZATION OF PARASITES eggs. A QUESTIONNAIRE WAS ADMINISTERED TO THEIR GUARdians/parENTS TO ASSESS THE RISK FACTORS OF infection. Results: The PREVALENCE OF INTESTINAL NEMATODE INFECTION WAS FOUND TO BE 62.6% (62/99). The INTESTINAL NEMATODE INFECTION RATE WAS FOUND TO BE HIGHER IN CHILDREN OVER fiVE YEARS AS COMPARED TO CHILDREN BELOW fiVE YEARS WITH A PREVALENCE OF 64.2% (43/67) AND 59.4% (19/32) RESPECTIVELY. The PREVALENCE OF INFECTION BY SEX WAS 66% (31/47) IN MALES AND 59.6% (31/52) IN females. Ascaris LUMBRICOIDES WERE THE MOST PREVALENT PARASITE IDENTIfiED IN 25 OF THE 62 PATIENTS INFECTED WITH INTESTINAL nematodes. This WAS FOLLOWED BY Hookworm (17/62), TRICHURIS TRICHIURA (12/62), AND StrONGYLOIDES STERCORALIS (8/62). Poor HYGIENE WAS THE MOST COMMON RISK FACTOR CITED FOLLOWED BY ILLITERACY AND POVERTY. Conclusion AND Recommendations: The RESULTS SHOW INTESTINAL NEMATODE INFECTION IS COMMON IN CHILDREN ATTENDING THE KiwokO PEDIATRIC unit. This, THEREFORe, CALLS FOR DIffERENT STAKEHOLDERS SUCH AS PUBLIC HEALTH Officers, MEDICAL personnel, AND THE COMMUNITY TO DEVELOP NEW STRATEGIES TO EDUCATE THE COMMUNITY ON EXISTING GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS AIMED AT THE ELIMINATION OF INTESTINAL NEMATODE INFECTION IN CHILDREN IN THE NakasekE district.

  • Challenges of Development and Natural Resource Governance In
    Ian Karusigarira Uganda’s revolutionary memory, victimhood and regime survival The road that the community expects to take in each generation is inspired and shaped by its memories of former heroic ages —Smith, D.A. (2009) Ian Karusigarira PhD Candidate, Graduate School of Global Studies, Tokyo University of Foreign Studies, Japan Abstract In revolutionary political systems—such as Uganda’s—lies a strong collective memory that organizes and enforces national identity as a cultural property. National identity nurtured by the nexus between lived representations and narratives on collective memory of war, therefore, presents itself as a kind of politics with repetitive series of nation-state narratives, metaphorically suggesting how the putative qualities of the nation’s past reinforce the qualities of the present. This has two implications; it on one hand allows for changes in a narrative's cognitive claims which form core of its constitutive assumptions about the nation’s past. This past is collectively viewed as a fight against profanity and restoration of political sanctity; On the other hand, it subjects memory to new scientific heuristics involving its interpretations, transformation and distribution. I seek to interrogate the intricate memory entanglement in gaining and consolidating political power in Uganda. Of great importance are politics of remembering, forgetting and utter repudiation of memory of war while asserting control and restraint over who governs. The purpose of this paper is to understand and internalize the dynamics of how knowledge of the past relates with the present. This gives a precise definition of power in revolutionary-dominated regimes.

National Population and Housing Census 2014 Area Specific Profiles – Nakaseke District FOREWORD Demographic and socio-economic data are useful for planning and evidence-based decision making in any country. Such data are collected through Population Censuses, Demographic and Socio-economic Surveys, Civil Registration Systems and other Administrative sources. In Uganda, however, the Population and Housing Census remains the main source of demographic data, especially at the sub-national level. Population Census taking in Uganda dates back to 1911 and since then the country has undertaken five such Censuses. The most recent, the National Population and Housing Census 2014, was undertaken under the theme ‘Counting for Planning and Improved Service Delivery’. The enumeration for the 2014 Census was conducted in August/September 2014. The Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) worked closely with different Government Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) as well as Local Governments (LGs) to undertake the census exercise.
