Family size and intra-family inequalities in education in Ouagadougou
Lachaud James, Thomas K. LeGrand, Vissého Adjiwanou, Jean-François Kobiané
BACKGROUND
While the potential benefits for educational investment of decline in family size are
well known, some questions have emerged on the distribution of these benefits. Do all
the children in a family benefit equitably from the improved conditions brought about
by limiting their number? And what are the consequences of reduction in(...)

Non-communicable disease mortality and risk factors in formal and informal neighborhoods, Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso: Evidence from a health and demographic...
B. SOURA
The expected growth in NCDs in cities is one of the most important health challenges of the coming decades in Sub-Saharan countries. This paper aims to fill the gap in our understanding of socio-economic differentials in NCD mortality and risk in low and middle income neighborhoods in urban Africa. We use data collected in the Ouagadougou Heal(...)

INFLUENCE OF ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES PRODUCED BY AN AMPLITUDE MODULATION RADIO ANTENNA ON THE ELECTRIC POWER DELIVERED BY A SILICON SOLAR CELL
I. ZERBO, M. ZOUNGRANA, A. OUEDRAOGO, B. KORGO, B. ZOUMA AND D. J. BATHIEBO
This article presents a one dimensional modeling of the influence of electromagnetic waves on the electric power
delivered by a silicon solar cell under monochromatic illumination in steady state. The electromagnetic waves are
produced by an amplitude modulation radio antenna of 2MW power of radiation and located at a variable distance of
t(...)

Determination of processes suitable for cotton stalk carbonization and torrefaction by partial combustion using a metal kiln.
Ibrahim G. Harouna, Oumar Sanogo, Tizane Daho, Salifou K. Ouiminga, Abouzeidi Dan-Maza, Bernard Nana, Jean Koulidiati.
In this work, the technical feasibility of cotton stalk carbonization and torrefaction was studied. A metallic homemade cylindrical furnace 60 cm in diameter and 90 cm in height was used for the experiments. A partial combustion process was used both for carbonization and torrefaction. Three carbonization methods were defined based on the amou(...)

Determination of arsenic (III) at a nanogold modified solid carbon paste electrode
Abdoul Karim Sakira, Touridomon Issa Some, Bieke Dejaegher, Dominique Mertens, Philippe Hubert, Eric M Ziemons and Jean‐Michel Kauffmann
A selective and sensitive electroanalytical method was developed for arsenic determination based on a nanogold (AuNP) modified solid carbon paste working electrode (SCPE) modified in two steps (i) physisorption and (ii) additional electrodeposition of nanogold particles in the presence of iodide. Copper (II) interference was solved by covering(...)

Adult non-communicable disease mortality in Africa and Asia: evidence from INDEPTH Health and Demographic Surveillance System sites
B. SOURA
Background Mortality from non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is a major global issue, as other categories of mortality have diminished and life expectancy has increased. The World Health Organization's Member States have called for a 25% reduction in premature NCD mortality by 2025, which can only be achieved by substantial reductions in risk fa(...)

The INDEPTH standard population for low-and middle-income countries, 2013
B. SOURA
Crude rates such as the crude death rate are functions of both the age-specific rates and the age composition of a population. However, differences in the age structure between two populations or two time periods can result in specious differences in the corresponding crude rates making direct comparisons between populations or across time ina(...)

Cause-specific mortality in Africa and Asia: evidence from INDEPTH health and demographic surveillance system sites
B. SOURA
Background Because most deaths in Africa and Asia are not well documented, estimates of mortality are often made using scanty data. The INDEPTH Network works to alleviate this problem by collating detailed individual data from defined Health and Demographic Surveillance sites. By registering all deaths over time and carrying out verbal autopsi(...)

HIV/AIDS-related mortality in Africa and Asia: evidence from INDEPTH health and demographic surveillance system sites
B. SOURA
Background As the HIV/AIDS pandemic has evolved over recent decades, Africa has been the most affected region, even though a large proportion of HIV/AIDS deaths have not been documented at the individual level. Systematic application of verbal autopsy (VA) methods in defined populations provides an opportunity to assess the mortality burden of(...)

Malaria mortality in Africa and Asia: evidence from INDEPTH health and demographic surveillance system sites
B. SOURA
Background Malaria continues to be a major cause of infectious disease mortality in tropical regions. However, deaths from malaria are most often not individually documented, and as a result overall understanding of malaria epidemiology is inadequate. INDEPTH Network members maintain population surveillance in Health and Demographic Surveillan(...)
