However, information on host genetic factors and their relationships with malaria in the vaccine trial site of Iganga, Uganda is limited. The main objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of selected host genetic markers and their relationship to malaria incidence in the vaccine trial site of Iganga, Uganda. In a 1-year longitudinal cohort study, 423 children aged below 9 years were recruited and their malaria episodes were investigated. Host genetic polymor- phisms were assessed by PCR–RFLP, haemoglobin electrophoresis and DNA sequencing. Using a multivariate negative binomial regression model, estimates of the impact of human genetic polymorphisms on malaria incidence were performed. In all statistical tests, a P value of <0.05 was considered as signifcant. Results: The prevalences of sickle cell haemoglobin trait, G6PD c.202 G>A (rs 1050828) and NOS2 954 G>C (rs 1800482) variants were 26.6, 22.7 and 17.3%, respectively. Inducible nitric oxide synthase 2 (NOS2 −954 G>C; rs 1800482) heterozygosity was associated with lower incidence of malaria in all age groups {Adjusted− incident rates ratio (aIRR) 0.59; 95% CI [0.386–0.887]; P 0.012)}.

M. Kafeero3, Iramiot. J. Stanley2, Jamilu. E. Ssenku1, Jesca. L. Nakavuma4 and Esezah. K. Kakudidi1 Abstract Background: Infectious diseases remain a leading cause of mortality and morbidity around the world, and those caused by bacteria are common in the East African region. In this region, trade and consumption of herbal medicine has been expanding in the recent decades. Herbal medicines may be contaminated with pathogenic bacteria; however, there is limited information due to fragmented studies in East Africa. In this meta-analysis, we critically analyzed original research related to the incidence of pathogenic bacterial contaminants of HM in the East African region since 2000. The aim was to create a comprehensive understanding of the extent and dynamics of bacterial contamination in HM, to guide future research and concerted public health protection in the region. Methodology: The study was conducted according to the standards of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses. We searched and evaluated published articles from eleven electronic databases (Google Scholar, PubMed, HerbMed, MEDLINE, Science Direct, Scifinder Scholar, Cochrane Library, International Pharmaceutical Abstracts, EMBASE, Biological Abstracts and Commonwealth Agricultural Bureau Abstracts). Prevalences of different bacterial species, Cochran’s Q test, and the I2 statistic for heterogeneity were evaluated using a software called MedCalcs.

Box 32275, Kampala, Uganda, Tel: +256 772 501 700; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Background: Lack of hospital preparedness to perform an emergency cesarean section (EmCS) contributes to maternal morbidity and mortality. Pregnancy outcomes are affected by the Decision to Delivery interval (DDI) yet this time and its effect had not been known in St. Francis hospital Nsambya especially, whether we achieve the 30 minutes’ interval that is globally advocated for. Objective: This study aimed to determine the average DDI, its variations with the indications for Emergency cesarean sections and how it affects the maternal and fetal outcomes among women delivering in St. Francis hospital Nsambya. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study implemented between September and December 2015 at St. Francis Hospital Nsambya’s postnatal ward. The study population comprised 297 women, consecutively selected, having undergone EmCS. Eligible women were consented and interviewed on either the second or third post-operative day. Their medical records were reviewed and data collected using a structured questionnaire. The DDI was recorded, including time of arrival in theatre and time of anesthesia.
