Investigating the Impact of Variable Dividends and Tail Dependence in a Compound Poisson Risk Model
Kiswendsida Mahamoudou Ouedraogo, Delwendé Abdoul-Kabir Kafando, François Xavier Ouedraogo, Pierre Clovis Nitiéma
This paper extends the compound Poisson risk model with a variable threshold dividend payment strategy and dependence between claims and inter-claim times, modeled via the Spearman copula. The objective is to establish the ultimate ruin probability in this framework. Following an introduction that motivates the study and highlights limitations(...)

APOBEC3G Role on HIV Infection in Africa: A Systematic Review
Tegwinde Rebeca Compaore, Abdoul Karim Ouattara, Adama Baguiya, Lassina Traore, Abdou Azaque Zoure, Henri Gautier Ouedraogo, Seni Kouanda, Jacques Simpore
The highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART) has allowed people living with HIV to live longer with a better quality of life. However, toxicity and the emergence of drug resistance arise from HAART use. Therefore, new antiretroviral therapy is needed since no cure or vaccine is available against HIV. Virus-host interaction has been prove(...)

The Potential of Cochlospermum tinctorium, Flueggea virosa, and Waltheria indica Traditional Plants From Burkina Faso in Treating Periodontitis: A Systematic Review
Abdoulaziz Diarra, Kevimy Agossa, Estelle Noëla Hoho Youl
Periodontitis is a chronic, infectious, and inflammatory oral disease with a high prevalence in developing countries, where limited access to modern dental care curtails its treatment. This review is dedicated to examining three indigenous botanical species frequently recommended by traditional therapists for the treatment of periodontal disea(...)

Analyzing Bankruptcy Probability under Partial Shareholder Payments and Dependent Claims via Spearman Copula
Kiswendsida Mahamoudou Ouedraogo, Delwendé Abdoul-Kabir Kafando, Lassané Sawadogo, François Xavier Ouedraogo, Pierre Clovis Nitiema
This paper is an extension of the compound poisson risk model with a strategy of partial dividend payment to shareholders, constant threshold b and dependence between claim amounts and inter-claim times via the Spearman copula. We study the probability of ultimate ruin associated with this risk model.

Background: Dengue fever is a vector-borne disease that raises a major public health problem worldwide,
particularly in Burkina Faso. The gold standard diagnosis is based on the research of viral RNA by reverse
transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) during the first days, or the presence of specific
immunoglobulin M (IgM) by ser(...)

Factors associated with the development of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in schoolchildren aged 6 to 13 years in the city of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
Ahmed Kaboré, André Kabore, Akossito Hermine Tognon, Hema Tiemoko Thierry Souahamai
Abstract The variability of prevalence rates of attention deficit disorder with or without hyperactivity (ADHD) in the
literature raises questions about its etiology and the factors predisposing to its manifestation. The causes are
multidimensional, but the current scientific consensus focuses on genetic predisposition and gene-environment(...)

Structural Controls of the Expansion of Small‐Scale Artisanal Gold of Bouda Area (Kaya‐Goren Green Belt, Burkina Faso) From Remote Sensing
R. A. I. Dao , H. Ilboudo , and D. Baratoux
Small‐scale artisanal mining is a vital sector of the economy of Burkina Faso. This activity, correctly regulated, remains essential for the population despite security issues since 2015. Exploration of new areas for gold mining in this condition is difficult but essential to continue extractive activities. It is, therefore, important to defin(...)

Numerical Assessment of the thermal efficiency of a concentrated photovoltaic/thermal (CPV/T) hybrid system with air as heat transfer fluid
KONFE Amadou, KABORE Boureima, NONGUIERMA Ives Christian, OUEDRAOGO Fatimata, KAM Sié
In this paper, we propose a thermal model of a hybrid photovoltaic/thermal concentration system. Starting from the thermal balance of the model, the equation is solved and simulated with a MATLAB code, considering air as the cooling fluid. This enabled us to evaluate some of the parameters influencing the electrical and thermal performance of(...)
