Family planning service disruptions in the first two years of the COVID-19 pandemic: Evidence from health facilities in seven low- and middle-income countries
Celia Karp, Kelsey Williams, Shannon N. Wood, Funmilola M. OlaOlorun, Pierre Akilimali, Georges Guiella, Peter Gichangi,
Many speculated that COVID-19 would severely restrict the delivery of essential health services, including family planning (FP), but evidence of this impact is limited, partly due to data limitations. We use cross-sectional data collected from regional and national samples of health facilities (n = 2,610) offering FP across seven low- and midd(...)

Development and optimization of a one step process for the production and sterilization of liposomes using supercritical CO2
Noémie Penoy, Kouka Luc Delma, Nirmayi Homkar, Abdoul Karim Sakira, Sabrina Egrek, Rosalie Sacheli, Pierre-Yves Sacré, Bruno Grignard, Marie-Pierre Hayette, Touridomon Issa Somé, Rasmané Semdé, Brigitte Evrard, Géraldine Piel
Liposomes are very interesting drug delivery systems for pharmaceutical and therapeutic purposes. However,
liposome sterilization as well as their industrial manufacturing remain challenging. Supercritical carbon dioxide
is an innovative technology that can potentially overcome these limitations. The aim of this study was to optimize
a one-(...)

A Vegetable Oil as Heat Transfer Fluid for Parabolic Trough Collector: Dynamic Performance Analysis under Ouagadougou Climate Conditions
Bagré, Boubou, Sié Zacharie Kam, Yomi Woro Gounkaou, Makinta Boukar, Ibrahim Kolawole Muritala, Harouna Sani Dan Nomao, Korsaga Armand, Antoine Beré, and Tizane Daho
In this study, the thermal performance of the parabolic trough collector (PTC) has been addressed under Ouagadougou climate conditions. Thus, after developing a model, the effect of mass flow on PTC performance showed that the Jatropha curcas oil (JCO) temperature difference increases when the mass flow rate (𝑚˙) decreases while the thermal ef(...)

Left ventricular recovery in an African cohort of patients with peripartum cardiomyopathy
Naïbé Dangwé Temoua, Joel Bamouni, Dakaboué Germain Mandi, Elisé Kaboré, Lucien Allawaye, Mianroh Hybi Langtar, Allamine Adjougoulta, Narcisse Douné, Ali Adam, Abdelmadjeib Zakaria, Yaméogo Rélwendé Aristide, Kambiré Yibar, Koudougou Jonas Kologo, Georges Rosario Christian Millogo, Nobila Valentin Yaméogo, Patrice Zabsonré
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a rare and potentially life-threatening disease associated with pregnancy. There are limited data regarding the outcome of PPCM and its predictive factors in sub-Saharan African patients. We prospectively conducted a double-center (cardiology unit of the department of medicine, Regional Hospital Center of Te(...)

Computational Model of Effective Thermal Conductivity of Green Insulating Fibrous Media. Materials
Sankara, H.; Baillis, D.; Coulibaly, O.; Coquard, R.; Naouar, N.; Saghrouni, Z
Modelling effective thermal properties is crucial for optimizing the thermal performance of
materials such as new green insulating fibrous media. In this study, a numerical model is proposed
to calculate the effective thermal conductivity of these materials. The fibers are considered to be
non-overlapping and randomly oriented in space. The(...)

Abstract
Background
Dengue fever (DF) is a significant public health concern in Burkina Faso, particularly in the Central Region, previously endemic for malaria. However, limited research has focused on dengue prevalence and associated factors among adult febrile patients in this region. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of sympt(...)

Entomotherapy as an alternative treatment for diseases due to Gram‑negative bacteria in Burkina Faso
Mamadou Ouango, Hama Cissé , Rahim Romba , Samuel Fogné Drabo , Rasmané Semdé , Aly Savadogo & Olivier Gnankiné
Insects are known for their harmful effects. However, they also benefit humans, animals, plants, and ecosystems. Its beneficial uses include entomophagy and entomotherapy. This study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial activity of insect extracts against Gram‑negative bacteria. Antibacterial activities of thirteen crude extracts of medicinal i(...)

Pediatrics severe low back pain by disc herniation: an uncommon entity
Wendlassida Joelle Stéphanie Tiendrebeogo/Zabsonre1* , Denlewende Sylvain Zabsonre , Fulgence Kabore , Abdoulaye Sanou, Yakouba Haro, Inoussa Zoungrana, Dieu-Donné Ouedraogo
Background Common severe back pain due to disc herniation is rare in the paediatric population which involves
children under eighteen years of age. Paediatric lumbar disc herniation (LDH) cannot be considered the same disease
as in adults, as it has potentially different natural and clinical backgrounds. The treatment of pediatric LDH is the(...)

Hooded Vultures <i>Necrosyrtes monachus</i> are still declining in West Africa: a nearly 50-year assessment study (1969–2019)
Clément Daboné, Idrissa Ouédraogo, Adama Ouéda, Lindy J. Thompson, Peter D.M. Weesie
Large-scale declines in vulture populations have been recorded in West Africa. One concern is that the current trend in Hooded Vulture Necrosyrtes monachus populations in West Africa is poorly known. To help fill this knowledge gap, we conducted nationwide road counts in Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger, using (where possible) the same routes and(...)

Adama Sawadogo, Hama Cissé, François Tapsoba, Boureima Kagambèga, Oumarou Zongo, Laurencia Ouedraogo, Cheikna Zongo, Aly Savadogo
L’eau est un élément vital pour tous les êtres vivants. Elle peut provenir de plusieurs sources dont les forages. Les eaux de forage sont souvent exposées à de nombreuses contaminations, elles peuvent donc présenter un risque pour la santé des consommateurs. Ainsi, cette étude s’était fixée pour objectif d’évaluer la qualité physico-chimique e(...)

Nest-site selection by Hooded Vultures <i>Necrosyrtes monachus</i> in the Sudano–Sahelian area of Burkina Faso
Clément Daboné, Lindy J. Thompson, Adama Ouéda, Idrissa Ouédraogo, Peter D.M. Weesie
Understanding the factors influencing selection of nesting habitat may be important in the placement and management of Vulture Safe Zones (areas where vultures can safely breed) and in the development of successful conservation programmes. In this study, we analysed the anthropogenic, environmental and topographic factors affecting nest-site s(...)
