Leon Mutesa,Pacifique Ndishimye,Yvan Butera,Jacob Souopgui,Jacob Souopgui,Annette Uwineza,Robert Rutayisire,Ella Larissa Ndoricimpaye,Emile Musoni,Nadine Rujeni,Thierry Nyatanyi,Edouard Ntagwabira,Muhammed Semakula,Clarisse Musanabaganwa,Daniel Nyamwasa,Maurice Ndashimye,Eva Ujeneza,Ivan Emile Mwikarago,Claude Mambo Muvunyi,Jean Baptiste Mazarati,Sabin Nsanzimana,Neil Turok,Neil Turok,Neil Turok,Wilfred Ndifon +24 more
TL;DR: An algorithm for pooling subsamples based on the geometry of a hypercube that, at low prevalence, accurately identifies individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 in a small number of tests and few rounds of testing is proposed.

A strategy for finding people infected with SARS-CoV-2: optimizing pooled testing at low prevalence
Leon Mutesa,Pacifique Ndishimye,Yvan Butera,Jacob Souopgui,Jacob Souopgui,Annette Uwineza,Robert Rutayisire,Emile Musoni,Nadine Rujeni,Thierry Nyatanyi,Edouard Ntagwabira,Muhammed Semakula,Clarisse Musanabaganwa,Daniel Nyamwasa,Maurice Ndashimye,Eva Ujeneza,Ivan Emile Mwikarago,Claude Mambo Muvunyi,Jean Baptiste Mazarati,Sabin Nsanzimana,Neil Turok,Neil Turok,Wilfred Ndifon +22 more
TL;DR: This work presents an approach to pooled testing, based on the geometry of a hypercube, which enables fast, cost-effective identification of infected people when the prevalence of the virus is low.
Journal ArticleDOI
Innovative strategies for a successful SLMTA country programme: The Rwanda story
Innocent Nzabahimana,Sabin Sebasirimu,John B. Gatabazi,Emmanuel Ruzindana,Claver Kayobotsi,Mary K. Linde,Jean Baptiste Mazarati,Edouard Ntagwabira,Janvier Serumondo,Georges Dahourou,Wangeci Gatei,Claude Mambo Muvunyi +11 more
TL;DR: This study describes the achievements of Rwandan laboratories four years after the introduction of SLMTA, using the SLIPTA scoring system to measure laboratory progress and shows improvement in quality management systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of artemether-lumefantrine versus dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine for the treatment of uncomplicated malaria among children in Rwanda: an open-label, randomized controlled trial.
Aline Uwimana,Michael J Penkunas,Marie Paul Nisingizwe,Marian Warsame,Noella Umulisa,Didier Uyizeye,Clarisse Musanabaganwa,Tharcisse Munyaneza,Edouard Ntagwabira,Dieudonne Hakizimana,Claude Mambo Muvunyi,Claver Kayobotsi,Michee Kabera,Monique Murindahabi,Aimable Mbituyumuremyi +14 more
TL;DR: AL remains efficacious in Rwanda 10 y after its adoption and the probability of new infections occurring among patients in the DHP arm was significantly lower than those in the AL arm.
