SWE-2010-226 Barriers to health care and the right to health for persons with mental illness in South Africa: How can access and the right to hea SWE-2010-226 Barriers to health care and the right to health for persons with mental illness in South Africa: How can access and the right to hea In poor countries, people suffering from mental illness seldom receive the treatment they need and their human rights are often neglected. This is a serious, since mental illness increase risk of physical illness, abuse, risky behaviour and poverty. There is a lack of a more comprehensive knowledge about barriers to care both within the health care system as well as in the population. In this study we use a new conceptual model were we investigate barriers to care at structural and individual level through the lens of the right to health. We investigate this in one urban and one rural area in Eastern Cape in South Africa. The findings from the health system analysis (what is delivered) will be contrasted to the results from the population study (what is received and used). The result will clarify lack of care and inconsistencies that will improve health care planning in poor countries.

SWE-2010-150 Management of pea bruchid by application of host plant resistance tactics and integrated pest management strategies in partnership w SWE-2010-150 Management of pea bruchid by application of host plant resistance tactics and integrated pest management strategies in partnership w The majority of rural and urban dwellers in Ethiopia rely on pulses as their main source of protein. Apart from securing food, pulses increase soil fertility and provide a valuable break crop after cereals. About 9.7 million households are engaged in pulse production. The emphasis of the Ethiopian Government on market-oriented production of legumes opens an opportunity for increased incomes. However, productivity is low mainly due to insect pests. Focusing on field pea, and its most destructive pest, pea bruchid, the project aims at increasing production of pulses in Ethiopia through developing resistant field pea varieties and integrated biological controls. The outcomes of the project will be applied through participatory field implementation and capacity building in partnership with farmers and extension agents. The project will enforce unique scientific infrastructures at AAU. The majority of rural and urban dwellers in Ethiopia rely on pulses as their main source of protein.

Nya metallbaserade läkemedelskandidater för behandling av malaria och HIV New metal based drug candidates for the treatment of malaria and HIV Malaria och HIV/AIDS är mycket spridda sjukdomar som särskilt drabbar utvecklingsländer och där orsakar samhälleliga  skador som försvårar ländernas utveckling. Situationen är särskilt allvarlig för afrikanska länder söder om Sahara. Även om mycketstora framsteg görs i behandling och förebyggande av dessa sjukdomar, finns det ett stort behov av kontinuerlig utveckling av nya läkemedel för behandling. Detta är i synnerhet fallet för malaria därför att malariaparasiter relativt snabbt utvecklar resistens mot läkemedel. I detta forskningsprojekt undersöks möjligheten att metallkomplex kan hämma  malaria eller HIV, med syftet att sådana metallkomplex skall kunna användas som läkemedel. De metallkomplex som framställs innehåller kända eller postulerade aktiva fragment från etablerade läkemedel. Forskningen är av preklinisk natur och syftar till att utveckla aktiva substanser som kan utgöra grund för framtida läkemedelsutveckling. This project will focus on the preparation of metal complexes with (i) antimalarial properties or (ii) antiviral (anti-HIV) properties. The antimalarial properties will be tested on Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites in collaboration with a research team at the University of Cape Town, South Africa. Similarly, the efficacy of the complexes as anti-HIV and antituberculosis agents will be assessed by in vitro cell line studies in collaboration with researchers at the Universities of Johannesburg and Pretoria, South Africa.

Sweden-Melanesia research venture network: longevity of immunological memory in people on islands with different histories of malaria elimination Satsning på Forskningsnätverk Sverige-Melanesien: Varaktighet av immunologiskt minne på öar i Vanuatu efter olika malariaeliminerings historik I malariaendemiska områden leder upprepade infektioner med malariaparasiter till att en naturlig immunitet som skyddar mot svår sjukdom utvecklas. Vad vi inte känner till är hur länge och hur bra denna immunitet kvarstår när exponeringen mot malaria minskar efter framgångsrika kontrollåtgärder. Om malaria återintroduceras, och det immunologiska minnet har försvunnit hos befolkningen, ökar risken för utbrott och allvarlig sjukdom markant.I södra Stillahavsregionen är malaria endemiskt i Papa Nya Guinea, Solomon öarna och Vanuatu. Sedan 2015 har malariaelimineringen avstannat i Vanuatu och viss ökning av malaria har setts på Papa Nya Guinea och Salomon öarna. I öriket Vanuatu har olika kontrollåtgärder framgångsrikt hållit malaria borta från vissa öar under flera års tid, men på andra öar finns fortfarande många platser med pågående smittspridning. När människors rörlighet mellan öarna ökar, ökar risken för att återintroducera malaria på öar som idag anses malariafria. För att undersöka risken för att malaria ska komma tillbaka, ämnar vi bygga upp ett samarbete med Divine Word University och Vanuatus hälsoministerium där vi ska undersöka hur immunologiskt minne upprätthålls och bevaras beroende på olika grader av malariaincidens. I detta samarbete kommer vi att etablera ett Center för malariaeliminering, samordna forskningsaktiviteter vilket inkluderar ett engagemang i samhällena, provtagning och analyser. Genom att förstå om immunitet upprätthålls eller inte genererar vi kunskap som är viktigt i planering av den beredskap som behövs för att hantera malaria vid en återintroduktion. Studierna är också av betydelse för utvecklingen av bättre vaccin mot malaria. Naturally acquired immunity to malaria is maintained through repeated infections. The longevity of anti-malarial immunity in populations experiencing malaria control and successful elimination is largely unexplored. In Vanuatu, scaled-up interventions have resulted in sustained elimination on some islands for varying periods and focal transmission of different intensities on other islands. This gradient in malaria risk and exposure provides a model to study the maintenance of immune memory in a natural setting. In collaboration with Divine Word University and the Ministry of Health in Vanuatu, we will establish the Center for Malaria Elimination to conduct research that helps to assess the risk of malaria resurgence on islands where populations may have waning immunity. Through this partnership we will conduct community outreach, develop field protocols for sample collection and transport, and perform initial sample analyses. We anticipate the collaboration to expand future research to address pressing issues such as low-density infections and Plasmodium vivax hypnozoite reservoir that are relevant to not only Vanuatu, but also neighboring Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea.
The role of the gut microbiome in the progression of liver cirrhosis Studie av rollen som tarmens mikrobiota spelar i lever cirrhos förloppet Levercancer är den sjätte vanligaste cancerformen i världen och den näst vanligaste dödsorsaken i cancer. Skrumplever är den största riskfaktorn för att utveckla levercancer. I Ghana dödar levercancer fler vuxna än någon annan sjukdom. Nya studier tyder på att tarmflorans mikroflora spelar en avgörande roll i denna process. Denna gemensamma satsning med forskarexperter och kliniker i levercancer, skrumplever, mikrobiologi, i Ghana, USA och Sverige kommer hjälpa oss att bättre förstå vilken roll tarmflorans mikroorganismer spelar i denna inflammatoriska process vid skrumplever. Vår hypotes är att sammansättningen av tarmen mikroorganismer för vilken levern exponeras vid en förhöjd nivå under skrumplever, spelar en viktig roll vid uppkomsten av levercancer. Vi kommer att studera detta i Ghana med hjälp av en epidemiologisk studie där vi följer en grupp av patienter med skrumplever och dess matchade friska kontroller. För att studera tarmens mikroflora kommer vi att samla in avföringsprover från patienterna och kontrollerna som analyseras i labbet. Om vår hypotes är korrekt, öppnar detta upp möjligheten att enklare probiotiska behandling kan vara användbara för att förebygga levercancer i lågresursländer vilket skulle ha en stor betydelse för fattigdomsminskning. Vi uppskattar att studien kommer att pågå tre år. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide, and the second most common cause of death from cancer. Liver cirrhosis is the major risk factor for the development of HCC. In Ghana, liver cancer kills more adults than any other malignancy. Recent studies suggested that the intestinal microflora, which is the main source of portal vein Lipopolysaccharide, plays a critical role in this process. This joint effort with research and clinical experts in liver cancer, cirrhosis, microbiota, and epidemiology in Ghana, US and Sweden will help us to better understand the role of the intestinal microflora in the inflammatory process of liver cirrhosis and its progression. Our hypothesis is that the composition of the gut microbiome to which the liver is exposed at an enhanced level during liver cirrhosis, plays a role in the oncogenesis attributed to cirrhosis. We will study this using a prospective cohort study design including a group of liver cirrhosis patients and its matched healthy controls in Ghana. We will collect fecal samples from patients and controls and DNA will be extracted and 16S rRNA sequenced. If our hypothesis is proven correct, it opens up the possibility that simple probiotic regimens may be useful for prevention of liver cancer in low resource settings that would have a tremendous impact on poverty reduction. We estimate that the study will last 3 years and full results available in the year following the completion of the study.

SWE-2011-157 A systems approach to water and sanitation for the urban poor in Bolivia SWE-2011-157 A systems approach to water and sanitation for the urban poor in Bolivia Access to safe water and improved sanitation are key issues for the urban poor in developing countries. It is becoming increasingly evident that the urban poor cannot rely on conventional water and sanitation systems, and affordable, locally adapted alternatives need to be developed. The proposed project aims at supporting the development of sustainable water and sanitation infrastructures for low income households in Bolivian cities. The project will use a systems approach with locally adapted indicators to assess the sustainability of water and sanitation infrastructures in two existing low-income housing cooperatives. An improved system will then be designed for a new housing cooperative and its sustainability will be assessed. The project will involve local community to ensure relevance and acceptability. A handbook will be prepared for future housing developments. Access to safe water and improved sanitation are key issues for the urban poor in developing countries.
