      Paulson, Joseph N.; Williams, Brent L.; Hehnly, Christine; Mishra, Nischay; Sinnar, Shamim A.; Zhang, Lijun; Ssentongo, Paddy; Kabachelor, Edith Mbabazi; Wijetunge, Dona S. S.; Bredow, Benjamin von; Mulondo, Ronnie; Kiwanuka, Julius; Bajunirwe, Francis; Bazira, Joel; Bebell, Lisa M.; Burgoine, Kathy; Rodriguez, Mara Couto (Science translational medicine, 2020-05-06)
      Postinfectious hydrocephalus (PIH), often following neonatal sepsis, is the most common cause of pediatric hydrocephalus world-wide, yet the microbial pathogens remain uncharacterized. Characterization of the microbial ...
    • The embodiment of low-field MRI for the diagnosis of infant hydrocephalus in Uganda 

      Diehl, Jan Carel; Doesum, Frank van; Bakker, Martien; Gijzen, Martin van; O’Reilly, Thomas; Muhumuza, Ivan; Obungoloch, Johnes; Kabachelor, Edith Mbabazi (2020 IEEE Global Humanitarian Technology Conference (GHTC), 2020)
      Compared to other parts of the world, the incidence of hydrocephalus in children is very high in sub- Saharan Africa. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) would be the preferred diagnostic method for infant hydrocephaleus. ...
    • Paenibacillus infection with frequent viral coinfection contributes to postinfectious hydrocephalus in Ugandan infants

      Postinfectious hydrocephalus (PIH), which often follows neonatal sepsis, is the most common cause of pediatric hydrocephalus worldwide, yet the microbial pathogens underlying this disease remain to be elucidated. ...
    • Paenibacillus spp infection among infants with postinfectious hydrocephalus in Uganda: an observational case-control study
