MULTIVARIATE RISKS MODELING FOR FINANCIAL PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT AND CLIMATE APPLICATIONS
Yves Bernadin Vini Loyara, Remi Guillaume Bagré and Diakarya Barro
This paper investigates some properties of derivative measures of the Value at Risk (VaR) of random variables modeling the stochastic behavior of a portfolio asset. Specifically, coherentness and convex properties of the conditional, the tail VaR and the standard deviation are established. Moreover, a new version of high risk scenario is chara(...)

Quinolone Resistance (qnr) genes in fecal carriage of extended Spectrum beta-lactamases producing Enterobacteria isolated from children in Niger
Aissatou Moumouni, Serge Diagbouga, Christelle Nadembèga, A Metuor Dabire, Karim Ouattara, Théodora Zohoncon
Qnr genes are known to confer a low level resistance to fluoroquinolone in Enterobacteriaceae. Their presence with other antibiotic resistance mechanism as extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) on the same plasmid are common and can spread widely. This study aimed to detect the presence of qnr genes in ESBL-producing commensal Enterobacteriacea(...)

Incremental predictive value of mean platelet volume/platelet count ratio in in-hospital stroke after acute myocardial infarction
N. YAMEOGO
Stroke is a serious complication after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and is associated with an increased risk of death. Though the pathophysiological mechanisms are not exactly known, increased inflammation and platelet reactivity could play an important role in the occurrence of stroke during AMI. We aimed to investigate the relationship(...)
