Introduction
In the quest for peak performance and public health, the use of plant secondary metabolites to modulate exercise-induced fatigue is gaining traction. This narrative review explores the interaction between phytomolecules (polyphenols, terpenoids, alkaloids), redox homeostasis, and the immune system during physical exertion.

Enhanced Private key Synchronization Mechanism Security in Passkeys System Based on Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman and Zero-Knowledge Proofs
Assane Ilboudo, Didier Bassole, Désiré Guel
Based on asymmetric cryptography, Passkeys Systems are a secure authentication method that can serve as an alternative to traditional authentication methods, such as usernames and passwords. In this paper, we propose a secure approach to enhance private key synchronization mechanisms in passkeys systems. Our secure service is based on Elliptic(...)

Variability of ethnobotanical uses and biological activities of three aromatic plants from three regions of Burkina Faso: Acanthospermum hispidum DC; Vitex simplicifolia Oliv. and Vetiveria nigritana (Benth)
Abdel Magid Arsène Ouoba, Hemayoro Sama, Abdoul-Nassiré Derra, Samson Guenné, Adama Hilou
Background
Traditional medicine in Burkina Faso relies heavily on aromatic plants for the treatment of malaria, bacterial infections, fevers, and related illnesses. Acanthospermum hispidum, Vitex simplicifolia, and Vetiveria nigritana are widely cited species, yet their essential oil composition and biological activities remain underexplored.(...)

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health challenge in Africa, where HIV prevalence varies considerably
across countries but remains, overall, higher than the global average. Limited diagnostic capacity and the
growing emergence of antimicrobial resistance further contribute to unfavorable treatment outcomes. Bacterial
and fungal c(...)

Performance of six genotypes of Hibiscus sabdariffa L. under cultural practices and jassids influence
A. Ouoba, ,A.L. Bougma, D. Nikiéma, Z. Nacoulma, ,M.H. Ouédraogo, N. Sawadogo,, M. Ouédraogo
Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.), a plant in the Malvaceae family, is of vital importance because its leaves, calyxes and seeds are all consumed. However, this species is still absent from genetic improvement programs in Burkina Faso. The aim of this study was to gain a better understanding of its genetic(...)

Escherichia coli is a major inhabitant of the intestinal tract of most mammalian species, including humans and animals.
This bacterium is classified into four main phylogenetic groups (A, B1, B2, D), with pathogenic strains primarily belong
ing to group B2 and, to a lesser extent, group D. This study investigated the correlation between E.(...)

Tea preparation conditions can influence the recovery of bioactive compounds and the antioxidant properties of the resulting beverage. This study compared the effects of heating time and extraction procedure on ten commercial tea samples consumed in Burkina Faso. Each sample underwent two successive decoctions at 100 °C for either 30 min or 1(...)

Formalizing PI Planning in Scaled Agile with Model-Driven Engineering: A Metamodel and Framework for Strategic Alignment
Flavien Somda ; Désiré Guel ; Kisito Kabore
Program Increment (PI) Planning is a critical synchronization event in scaled Agile methodologies, yet remains largely informal, with limited analytical rigor or strategic alignment. This paper introduces a formal metamodel and a model-driven framework to support structured PI Planning in large-scale software development. Our metamodel capture(...)

RISK MODELING ON THE BRVM
VINI YVES BERNADIN LOYARA, JEAN ZONGO, AND FABRICE OUOBA
Classical risk measurement models assume normality of returns and linear dependence, which systematically underestimates extreme losses in emerging markets. This paper evaluates two complementary approaches to model the risk of a portfolio of BRVM assets (SONATURG and BOA BF) over 2020–2023. The first uses copulas to capture tail dependence be(...)
