LOMPO D L, ZOUNGRANA A, KYELEM A J M, KERE F, NACOULMA H, DABILGOU A A, NAPON C, MILLOGO A
Introduction : La myasthénie auto-immune est peu connue, sous diagnostiquée et son profil clinique, paraclinique et évolutif est assez méconnu en Afrique sub saharienne. La présente étude avait pour but de décrire les modalités thérapeutiques et évolutives de la myasthénie auto-immune au Burkina Faso.
Patients et méthodes : Il s’est agi d’une(...)

Measuring Cognitive and Psychosocial Accessibility to Modern Contraception: A Comprehensive Framework
Lonkila Moussa Zan, Clémentine Rossier, Caroline Moreau
Nowadays, more than ever, the improvement of access to family planning (FP)
has become an international goal. What constitutes access to FP? Current human rights-based contraceptive guidelines indicate that access begins as soon as
women or couples express a desire to avoid pregnancy and their risk of unintended pregnancy is established. How(...)

Experimental study of improved cookstove with primary and secondary sources
DIANDA Boureima, OUEDRAOGO Lareba Adélaïde, COMPAORE Abdoulaye, ZONGO Wendtoin Estelle, KAM Sié and Dieudonné Joseph Bathiébo
Improved cookcookstoves are cooking devices using biomass such as wood and charcoal. Although existing improved cookcookstoves contribute to reducing wood consumption, this consumption is still considerable, and the smoke produced is a source of many illnesses. It is therefore necessary to work on further improving these "improved cookstoves".(...)

Toxic potential evaluation of liquid effluents discharged into nature by the university hospital centers (UHC) and mixed wastewater treatment station (WWTS) at Ouagadougou-Burkina Faso
Ganamé Abasse Ouédraogo, Djimbie Justin Djopnang, Oumarou Zongo, Farid Toyigbenan Badé, Arouna Ouédraogo, Boukaré Kaboré, Hama Cissé, François Tchoumbougnang, Aly Savadogo
In Burkina Faso, several investigations have raised suspicions that hospital liquid effluents are the source of contaminants in porbeagle-culture products and surface water in urban and peri-urban areas. This study aimed to evaluate the hygienic quality of hospital liquid effluents discharged into nature by the UHC Bogodogo (UHC-BOG), Yalgado(...)

The flavonoid resokaempferol improves insulin secretion from healthy and dysfunctional pancreatic β-cells
Guillaume Gautheron, Sylvie Péraldi-Roux, Justine Vaillé, Sahla Belhadj, Andrzej Patyra, Morgane Bayle, Estelle Youl, Soufiyan Omhmmed, Gérard Cros, Jean-Francois Guichou, Benjamin Uzan, Jérémie Neasta, Catherine Oiry
Background and Purpose: The pharmacology of flavonoids on β-cell function is largely undefined especially in the context of defective secretion of insulin. We sought to identify flavonoids that increased the insulin-secreting function of β-cells and to explore the underlying mechanisms.
Experimental Approach: INS-1 β-cells in culture and isle(...)

INFECTIONS BUCCO-DENTAIRE ET PERITONITE PAR PERFORATION GASTRIQUE : QUEL LIEN ?
BAYALA JP, TRAORE I, GUIGUIMDE WPL, OUEDRAOGO M, BEOGO R, KONSEM T.
INTRODUCTION
L'association d'une péritonite par perforation gastrique avec une infection orale est rarement rapportée dans la littérature. Ce travail rapporte deux cas de péritonite par perforation gastrique associée à une cellulite faciale ou à une ostéite mandibulaire afin d'analyser le lien de causalité entre ces deux entités pathologiques(...)

Geology and metal anomalies of the Kampti-Loropeni greenstone, Burkina Faso (West African Craton)
Mathieu Nanema , Hermann Ilboudo, Justin Winhyel Some , Ignace Dabone
Stream sediment geochemistry is a method of regional exploration to screen wide areas, of difficult access or high rainfall marked by significant forestry development. This method, combined with remote sensing, petrographic, analytical studies and field work, has enabled us to highlight areas of metal anomalies in the Kampti-Loropeni greenston(...)

Development of a Constructed Wetland for Greywater Treatment for Reuse in Arid Regions: Case Study in Rural Burkina Faso
Ynoussa MAIGA, Cheik Omar Tidiane COMPAORÉ, Martine DIALLO/KONÉ, Seyram K. SOSSOU, Hermann Y. SOMÉ, Mamady SAWADOGO, Issa NAGALO, James R. MIHELCIC, Aboubakar S. OUATTARA
This study implemented and assessed, over a period of four weeks, a full-scale constructed wetland designed to collect and treat the greywater for a rural household located in an arid environment typical of Africa’s Sahel region. The system was constructed from local materials and consisted of a shower room, a receiving basin, a pre-treatment(...)

Connaître et reconnaître un piège en chirurgie : la bifurcation précoce de l'artère hépatique commune
Évariste Bissinde à , Raffaele Brustia b , Eric Savier c
Summary Early bifurcation of the common hepatic artery (EBCHA) is a rare anatomical variation (1%), that is often overlooked but can lead to accidental ligation of the right branch of the
hepatic artery with consequent arterial ischemia of the right liver and potentially very serious
complications during pancreaticoduodenectomy, partial hepa(...)

Objectives
In Burkina Faso, one in every four children under 5 years is stunted. Climate change will exacerbate childhood stunting. Strengthening the health system, particularly the quality of nutrition care at primary health facilities, can minimise the adverse climate effect on stunting. Thus, we examined the quality of nutritional status a(...)

Global Financing Facility investments for vulnerable populations: content analysis regarding maternal and newborn health and stillbirths in 11 African countries, 2015 to 2019
Mary Kinney, Meghan Bruce Kumar, Issa Kaboré, Joël Kiendrébéogo, Peter Waiswa, Joy E. Lawn
Background: The Global Financing Facility (GFF) was launched in 2015 to catalyse increased domestic and external financing for reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, adolescent health, and nutrition. Half of the deaths along this continuum are neonatal deaths, stillbirths or maternal deaths; yet these topics receive the least aid financing ac(...)

Optimization of a hybrid photovoltaic/grid power source system supplemented by a storage unit: case study
Sidiki Zongo, Madi Ouedraogo, Ali Diané, Fabrice Bado, Zacharie Sié Kam, Moussa Sougoti, Alfa Omar Dissa, Antoine Béré
Hybrid power systems have significantly increased in the last decade to supply energy in both industrial and commercial sectors. Because of the abundance of solar radiation, Burkina Faso has the potential to develop solar and or hybrid energy systems to meet its energy demand. In the present case study, solar radiation data have been analysed(...)
