Premières caractérisations morpho typologiques de la céramique archéologiques des enceintes et structures en pierres, sud-ouest du Burkina Faso
Simporé Lassina
Les enceintes et structures en pierre sont les principaux vestiges archéologiques connus dans l’espace géoculturel appelé abusivement ‘pays lobi’ au Burkina Faso, Afrique occidentale.
Depuis les premières publications à leur sujet au début du vingtième siècle, leur architecture a été l’aspect matériel le plus traité. Cette focalisation sur le(...)

Le taux de déperdition des participants dans une cohorte
prospective est une préoccupation majeure pour les investigateurs,
compte tenu de son impact sur la validité interne des enquêtes. Notre
étude avait pour objectif d’évaluer l’effet des appels téléphoniques
sur les taux de suivi d’une cohorte de nourrissons au Burkina Faso.

Background
Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a leading cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), yet reliable biomarkers for early detection and risk stratification remain limited. This study aimed to identify plasma proteins associated with disease progression from chronic HBV infection to HCC.

Watershed-Based Approaches for Sustainable Agricultural Ecosystem Management in Burkina Faso
Nikiema Sanata, Compaoré Hyacynthe
Agriculture plays a pivotal role in the socio-economic development of Burkina Faso, employing a large proportion of the population and contributing significantly to national GDP. However, this sector faces critical challenges, notably rapid soil degradation, declining fertility and the increasing vulnerability of farming systems to climate var(...)

Identification of Novel TERT Promoter Mutations in Chronic Hepatitis B-Induced HCC Patients in Burkina Faso
Zongo, V.S., Zhou, Y.M., Djigma, F.W., Roamba, E., Yonli, A.T., Sorgho, A.P., Barro, O., Somda, S.K., Compaore, T.R., Sanou, M., Martinson, J.J., Traore, L., Chamcheu, J.C., Zongo, J.K., Lompo, O.M., Roberts, L.R., Borad, M.J., Nagalo, B.M. and Simpore, J.K.
Introduction: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the serious complications of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and constitutes a major global public health problem. Several factors contribute to the development of this cancer, the genetic aspect of which is linked to mutations in genes such as the human telomerase reverse transc(...)

On the study of cellular automata on modulo-recurrent words
Moussa Barro, K. Ernest Bognini and Boucaré Kientéga
In this paper, we study some class of cellular automata (CA) preserving modulo-recursive, stability by reflection and richness called stable cellular automata (SCA). After applying these automata on Sturmian words, we establish some combinatorial properties of these new words. Next, the classical and palindromic complexity functions of these w(...)

Genetic parameter estimation is used to develop selection strategies for sustainable and climate smart agriculture. The aim of the study is to determine the level of agromorphological diversity and show which hereditary traits would have good heritability to be taken into account in varietal improvement and genetic progress. Seven hundred and(...)

How do climate and land use affect structural attributes, diversity and carbon sequestration at both vegetation and species levels in West African savanna ecosystems?
Valaire Séraphin Ouehoudja Yaro, Loyapin Bondé, Pawend-taoré Christian Bougma, Reginald Tang Guuroh, Oumarou Ouédraogo & Anja Linstädter
Research on land use impacts on woody diversity and carbon stocks in West African savannas has primarily focused on the vegetation level. However, a combined analysis at both vegetation and species levels offers a more nuanced understanding of carbon loss patterns and provides stronger guidance for management and conservation of threatened spe(...)

Faidherbia albida (Delile) A. Chev. is a key agroforestry species that provides multiple ecosystem services, including soil fertilization, carbon sequestration, and forage production. Despite its ecological importance in climate change mitigation and its vital role for rural communities, natural populations of F. albida are declining due to po(...)

Background and Aim: Infectious diseases nowadays are caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria,
making their management both difficult and costly. In Gram-negative bacilli, several enzymes
particularly ESBLs and carbapenemases allow to counteract the antibiotic effect of nearly all β
lactams. This leads to a dilemma for clinicians who increa(...)
