Early diagnosis is essential to ensure adequate management and preserve visual function. these results show that the epidemiological and clinical features of congenital ocular anomalies are similar to those reported in the literature.

However, few studies exist in the African context and none have been undertaken in conflict-affected settings. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of applying chlorhexidine gel to the umbilical cord stump on cord sepsis and neonatal mortality rates in the Republic of South Sudan. our pre/post quasi-experimental study recruited 3,143 pregnant women from six rural communities in Jubek County, South Sudan 1,825 women in the treatment group and 1,318 women in the control group. Neonates in the treatment group had chlorhexidine applied to the umbilical cord stump within 24 hours of birth and daily for seven days. No chlorhexidine gel was applied in the control group, instead they were encouraged to practice dry cord care. Data was collected at enrolment and at each antenatal visit at 3, 7, 14 and 28 days. Our primarbuted to the reduction of cord sepsis and neonatal mortality in conflict-affected South Sudan where the majority of births happen at home in unsanitary conditions. Chlorhexidine gel should be added to the essential medicines list in South Sudan and a costed plan for scale-up of chlorhexidine gel application should be developed by the Ministry of Health. infections are the leading cause of m
