TRAUMATISME CRANIO-CERVICO-FACIALE INSOLITE PAR MORSURE DE CROCODILE
Millogo M, Idani Motandi, Zegbeh-N’guessan E K, Zango A, Badini S P A, Konsem T.
Introduction : Les agressions humaines par des animaux sauvages sont rares et souvent dramatiques. Parmi les animaux agresseurs de l’homme, le crocodile se singularise par
la puissance impressionnante de ses mâchoires qui laissent très peu de chance de survie à la proie qu’il parvient à saisir. Les lésions par morsure de crocodile intéressent(...)

CONTROLLABILITY OF A STOCHASTIC MODEL OF LYMPHATIC FILARIASIS
Ragnimwendé SAWADOGO, Victorien KONANE
This paper analyzes the controllability of a stochastic model of lymphatic filariasis. Like other
diseases, the spread of lymphatic filariasis is subject to a degree of randomness due to fluctuations in
the natural environment. This provides an opportunity to formulate a mathematical model of lymphatic
filariasis that accounts for as much e(...)

Unusual Etiology of an Ischemic Stroke: Total Thrombosis of the Right Internal Carotid Artery in a Case Report
Wendlassida Martin Nacanabo 1, Taryètba André Arthur Seghda 1, Anna Tall/Thiam 2, Nobila Valentin Yameogo 2, André Koudnoaga Samadoulougou 1, Partice Zabsonre 2
This case presents an unusual finding of total thrombosis of the right internal carotid artery complicated by a large patch of cerebral ischaemia in the right parieto-temporo-occipital and right capsulo-lenticulo-thalamic regions. The patient was managed mainly with medication, due to the lack of human and material resources required for any i(...)

Forage harvesting using branch pruning compromises sustainable use and conservation of Pterocarpus erinaceus Poir., an endangered species
Bossila Séraphin Hien, Loyapin Bondé, Mohamed Mahamoud Charahabil, Sié Sylvestre Da, Joseph Issaka Boussim, Oumarou Ouédraogo
Pterocarpus erinaceus Poir. is a leguminous tree species with huge forage value. It is subjected to heavy pruning pressure in dry season for livestock feeding, resulting in yearly decline of forage production and vulnerability of the species which is currently classified as endangered species. This study aimed at: (i) identifying factors influ(...)

Artificial intelligence tool for cassava viral diseases diagnosis using participatory surveillance in Burkina Faso
Sawadogo S, Tiendrebeogo F, Tibiri EB, Name PE, Djigma F, Traoré L, Pita JS and Eni AO
In the area of plant health, there has been little work using participatory approaches to control emerging infectious diseases such as cassava mosaic disease (CMD) and cassava brown streak disease (CBSD). These diseases cause significant yield losses in Sub-Saharan Africa. The current study provided low cost and early detection method of cassa(...)
