Introduction Medical registries are structured tools for collecting, monitoring, and analyzing clinical data for epidemiological purposes, as well as for improving patient care. In the field of orthopaedics, arthroplasty registries help monitor implant performance, identify complications, and standardize surgical practices. In Burkina Faso, despite the increase in the number of joint replacements and epidemiological features such as sickle cell disease, no national registry exists. This work aims to establish a prototype of a registry tailored to local realities. Methods A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted, combining a literature review to assess the existing situation and a questionnaire survey administered to orthopaedic surgeons in Burkina Faso. The analysis was conducted with Python 3.12.3, integrating descriptive statistics, visualizations, and synthesis of functiona...

“What is the essence of cultivating a crop that does not yield enough to feed my family?” Farmer agency and the management of agrobiodiversity in Ghana and Burkina Faso

Michael Olaitan Ademilola, · Paul Effah,· Viviane Yameogo, · Thomas Daum, · Lilli Scheiterle, · Felix Asante, · Nerbéwendé Sawadogo, · Regina Birner
The preservation of agrobiodiversity is widely regarded as a cornerstone of sustainable agri-food systems, yet dominant narratives often portray crop diversity in smallholder farming as declining under pressures of intensification and market integration. Less attention has been given to how farmers themselves perceive, manage, and actively shape agrobiodiver sity over time. Drawing on political ecology and farmer-agency perspectives within a broader socio-ecological framework, this study examines patterns of crop species and varietal diversity across eight villages in Burkina Faso and Ghana. A mixed-methods approach combining surveys with 320 respondents and participatory focus group tools—including matrix scoring, four-square diagrams, and historical timelines—was used to analyze both quantitative trends in agrobiodiversity and farmers’ lived experiences. Results show that agrobiodiver...

In traditional medicine, the leaves of Capparis sepiaria and Maerua angolensis, known as kal-yanga and Zilogo respectively in the local Moore language, are used to treat gastric and duodenal ulcers and other gastrointestinal disorders. This study aimed firstly to evaluate in vivo the ability of the extracts to reduce gastric acidity and secondly to determine the contents of bioactive compounds potentially responsible for this effect. The pylorus ligation model in rats was used to assess the plant extracts effect on gastric acidity. Total phenolics were determined using the Folin–Ciocalteu reagent, while the flavonoid, condensed tannin, and hydrolysable tannin contents were determined by the aluminum trichloride, vanillin and sodium iodate method respectively. The best gastric acid-reducing activity equal to 32.88 milliequivalent of hydrogen ions per liter (mEq H+/L) was obtained with the...

Rising Burden of ESBL-Producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in Burkina Faso: A Five-Year Retrospective Analysis

Sandrine Ouédraogo, · Adama Patrice Soubeiga, · Dissinviel Stéphane Kpoda, · Abibou Simporé · Serge Sougué, · Paulette Karfo, · Théodora Mahoukèdè Zohoncon, · Adama Zida, · Elie Kabré, · Cheikna Zongo
Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae are major contributors to antimicrobial resistance worldwide. Data from Burkina Faso remain limited, despite growing concerns about multidrug resistance in urinary pathogens. We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional study using microbiological records from three medical laboratories in Ouagadougou between January 2018 and December 2022. All urine culture isolates of E. coli and K. pneumoniae were included. Patient demographics, hospitalization status, and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles were extracted. ESBL production was confirmed phenotypically using the double disk synergy test. Statistical analyses were performed to compare prevalence and resistance patterns across species and patient groups. A total of 4,234 isolates were analyzed, comprising 3,084 E. coli (72.8%) and 1,...

ntroduction : La rage, zoonose mortelle mais évitable, reste un défi majeur de santé publique au Burkina Faso. Objectif : Analyser les tendances épidémiologiques (2013-2023) et identifier les lacunes des systèmes de surveillance et de contrôle. Méthodes : Une étude à méthodes mixtes combinant une analyse rétrospective des données de surveillance (2013– 2023) et une enquête qualitative transversale par entretiens auprès de 20 acteurs clés (soignants, vétérinaires, responsables) a été conduite. Résultats : L'analyse révèle 555 cas humains et 2 108 animaux confirmés. Une augmentation annuelle significative des cas humains est observée (coefficient de Poisson=0,08 ; p<0,01), avec un pic d'incidence à 0,53 pour 100 000 habitants en 2022. Cette tendance contraste avec l'absence d'évolution significative des cas animaux, suggérant une sous- déclaration massive. Les obstacles qualitatif...

Mathematical Analysis of a Co-Dynamics Model of Listeriosis and Bacterial Meningitis Starting From Ready-to-Eat Foods

Ousmane Koutou, Cheick Abdoul Kabir Kouanda, Adama Ouédraogo
Listeriosis is a foodborne illness that can lead to bacterial meningitis. In this paper, we propose and investigate a model of co-infection involving both listeriosis and bacterial meningitis, originating from ready-to-eat food products. We begin by examining the patterns of each disease individually, as well as the dynamics of their co-infection. From our global co-infection model, we derive separate models for bacterial meningitis and listeriosis. Each model is analyzed in terms of the existence of equilibrium points, threshold dynamics parameters, stability results, sensitivity analysis, and the presence of backward and forward bifurcations. Finally, we present numerical simulation results to support our theoretical findings.

Numerical Analysis by Godunov-Type Scheme for Kazhikhov-Smagulov Pollution Model

Gafarou Zongo, Jules Ouya, Arouna Ouedraogo
The pollution model based on the Kazhikhov-Smagulov equations, a set of equations in fluid mechanics and environmental modeling, is thoroughly investigated numerically in this paper. We investigate the intricate behavior of pollution in a single spatial dimension using a Godunov-type method, which is renowned for its ability to capture discontinuities and shocks effectively. Our 1D simulations illustrate frequently overlooked facets of mixture phenomena, highlighting the model’s complex and varied dynamics. Numerical experiments illustrate the relevance of the proposed numerical procedure.
