Global Properties of a Fractional Order Model of a Vector-Borne Disease
Boureima Ouedraogo; Ali Traoré, Harouna Ouedraogo
We present here a fractional model in the sense of Caputo of a vector-borne disease with insecticide resistance genes. This study is important because it contributes to our understanding of vector-borne disease transmission dynamics using the notion of dif- ferential operators. The use of fractional derivatives in the model provides a memory e(...)

Innovative and Secure Private Key Synchronization Mechanism Between Devices Using Peer-to-Peer Approach in Passkeys System
Assane ILBOUDO, Didier BASSOLE, Désiré GUEL
Passkeys are a passwordless authentication method that is increasingly being adopted. Based on asymmetric cryptography, they offer a secure and promising alternative to traditional passwords. In this paper, we propose a new secure approach for passkey synchronization based on a Peer-to-Peer mechanism between devices. Our secure services integr(...)

Design of a "Mini Smart Grid" for the electrification of Koumnéré locality: Power supply via a hybrid PV/Diesel power plant with battery storage
Dioari Ulrich Combari, Arnaud Ouermi, Wend Yam Mickaïla Tertus Dermé, Mamoudou Saria, Issa Zerbo
This work concerns the design of a small hybrid photovoltaic/diesel generator power plant with battery energy storage. This system will supply electricity to the Koumnéré area, located in the South-Central region of Burkina Faso. Photovoltaic energy is obtained from a free primary energy source: solar energy. However, it is an intermittent ene(...)

“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 sha(...)

Epidemiological profile of emerging and re-emerging viral diseases at the Yalgado Ouédraogo University Hospital Center: case of patients hospitalized in the Infectious Diseases department between 2018 and 2023
AGA Ouédraogo, DM Kpadonou, AZ Thiombiano, H Zonon, S Sanfo, A Gnamou, G Zemané, A Sawadogo, D Tamboura, AR Belem, S Ouédraogo, D Ouédraogo, M Kaboré, EA Diendere, J Zoungrana, I Diallo, M Savadogo, AK Sondo
Introduction: Emerging and re-emerging viral diseases are a growing threat to public health, especially in resource-limited countries. In Burkina Faso, the resurgence of dengue fever, associated with cases of chikungunya and measles, reflects persistent transmission and a morbidity and mortality still poorly documented in hospitals. The object(...)

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 rec(...)

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-infect(...)
