Arsenic removal with zero-valent iron filters in Burkina Faso: Field and laboratory insights
Anja Bretzler, Julien Nikiema, Franck Lalanne, Lisa Hoffmann, Jagannath Biswakarma, Luc Siebenaller, David Demange, Mario Schirmer, Stephan J. Hug
Groundwater contaminated with geogenic arsenic (As) is frequently used as drinking water in Burkina Faso, despite adverse health effects. This study focused on testing low-cost filter systems based on zero-valent iron (ZVI), which have not yet been explored in West Africa for As removal. The active ZVI bed was constructed using small sized iro(...)

Quelques paramètres physiologiques et constituants biochimiques des organes de la lentille de terre (Macrotyloma geocarpum) en conditions de stress hydrique
Mberdoum Memti NGUINAMBAYE, Rasmata NANA, I. Alain DJINET et Zoumbiessé TAMINI
La lentille de terre est une espèce en voie de disparition car sa culture demeure rudimentaire et traditionnelle. Aucun effort n’est fait pour améliorer cette culture. C’est pourquoi, elle n’occupe pas une place particulière en Afrique comme d’autres cultures vivrières. Ainsi, l’étude a consisté d’une part, à évaluer l’effet de stress sur le t(...)

Analysis of a vector-borne disease model with human and vectors immigration
Ali Traoré
We study the stability analysis of a vector-borne disease model. A wind-borne long- distance immigration of vectors and human immigration are considered. We assume a nonlinear incidence function including mass action and saturating incidence as special cases. There is no disease-free equilibrium and therefore no basic reproduction number. The(...)

Study of the phenomenon of mud increase on the lamellate decanter of the station of treatment of water of Paspanga in Burkina Faso
Elisabeth R. OUEDRAOGO, Crépin I. DIBALA, Kiessoun KONATE, Jean DIARRA et Mamoudou H. DICKO
Drinking water is a basic food and its access is one of the fundamental human needs. For Ouagadougou, it comes from the station of water treatment of surface at Paspanga and Ziga. The mud increase constitutes a persistent phenomenon in the treatments of water of Paspanga. The objective of this work was to find the causes of this phenomenon in(...)

Impact of road construction on the distribution of Crocodylus suchus (Étienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire 1807) in urban park Bangr-Weoogo (Burkina Faso)
Ilassa Ouedraogo, Idrissa Ouedraogo, Noëllie W Kpoda, Adama Oueda, Victor Bance, Justine Kabore, Gustve B Kabre
In contrast to other anthropogenic activities, little is known about impact of road construction on reptile’s distribution in urban areas. Therefore, the present study aimed at quantifying impact of road construction on C. suchus distribution. It was conducted from February 2016 to May 2018, in the urban Park Bangr-weoogo. C. suchus population(...)

Modélisation du rayonnement solaire global incident sur un plan horizontal et incliné par quatre modèles semi-empiriques sur le site de la ville de Ouagadougou
Ouédraogo Souleymane , Zongo S. Augustin, Nzihou Jean-Fièle , Daho Tizane,and Béré Antoine
Les paramètres météorologiques et radiométriques tels que le rayonnement solaire influencent fondamentalement la rentabilité et la performance des systèmes de conversion de l’énergie solaire. L’optimisation des convertisseurs d’énergie solaire dépend du modèle de rayonnement solaire utilisé. Cette étude porte sur l’estimation du rayonnement so(...)

Caractérisation physico-chimique des eaux de surface et des altérites du bassin versant du lac Bam, Centre Nord du Burkina Faso
Césard MILLOGO, Corneille BAKOUAN, Sâga SAWADOGO, Samuel NAKOLENDOUSSE
La présente étude consiste à la caractérisation physico-chimique des eaux de surface et des altérites du bassin
versant du lac Bam. Elle montre qu’en dehors de l’échantillon du puits PU5 qui est bicarbonaté sodique et
potassique, l’ensemble des eaux étudiées présente deux principaux faciès : bicarbonaté calcique et
bicarbonaté calcique et m(...)

Analyse des sources d’efficacité collective chez les footballeurs au Burkina Faso
Brigitte NANA, Amidou SAWADOGO, Anicet Paterne Coovi ASSOGBA, Adama TIAMA, Désiré POUDIOUGO
Les recherches sur les sources d’efficacité collective en sport ont montré qu’elles constituent un facteur de prédiction de la performance. L’objectif de cette étude a été d’analyser les sources d’efficacité collective chez les footballeurs cadets, juniors et seniors au Burkina Faso. 277 joueurs issus de 17 équipes ont rempli un questionnaire(...)

Comparison of swarming, mating performance and longevity of males Anopheles coluzzii between individuals fed with different natural fruit juices in laboratory and semi-field conditions
Charles Nignan1,2* , Abdoulaye Niang1,3, Hamidou Maïga1, Simon Péguédwindé Sawadogo1, Bèwadéyir Serge Poda1,2, Olivier Gnankine2, Kounbobr Roch Dabiré1, Frédéric Tripet3 and Abdoulaye Diabaté
Background: It is assumed that malaria vectors feed on locally available nectar sources to obtain energy. Sugar feeding is energetically critical for the Anopheles male swarming and mating activities. However, little is known about the
impact of local nectar feeding on male physiological development and its consequences on male mosquito life(...)

Effective coverage measurement in maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health and nutrition: progress, future prospects, and implications for quality health systems.
Andrew D Marsh, Moise Muzigaba, Theresa Diaz, Jennifer Requejo, Debra Jackson, Doris Chou, Jenny A Cresswell, Regina Guthold, Allisyn C Moran,Kathleen L Strong, Anshu Banerjee, Agnès Soucat, on behalf of the Effective Coverage Think Tank Group*
Intervention coverage—the proportion of the population with a health-care need who receive care—does not accountfor intervention quality and potentially overestimates health benefits of services provided to populations. Effective coverage introduces the dimension of quality of care to the measurement of intervention coverage. Many definitions(...)

"It Depends on What They Experience in Each Health Facility. Some Are Satisfied, Others Are Not." A MixedMethods Exploration of Health Workers’ Attitudes Towards Performance-Based Financing in Burkina Faso
Julia Lohmann Jean-Louis Koulidiati Serge MA Somda, Manuela De Allegri
Background
Evidence emerging from qualitative studies suggests the existence of substantial variation in how health workers experience performance-based financing (PBF) within the same setting. To date, however, no study has quantified or systematically explored this within-setting heterogeneity. Considering that differences in health workers(...)

ROUAMBA OUEDRAOGO Bowendsom Claudine Valérie, FAYAMA Tionyélé, ADIOLA bELO
Le divorce est un fait social, une réalité qui ne cesse de prendre de l’ampleur ces dernières
années. Face à une telle situation, il importe de jeter un regard sur les raisons qui entrent en
ligne de compte. C’est dans cette optique que le présent article s’est donné pour objectif de
mettre en relation le divorce et l’autonomie socioécon(...)

Effect of Cowpea Mottle Virus on Cowpea (Vigna Unguiculata (L.) Walp.) Yield Losses in Burkina Faso
Essowè Palanga*, James Bouma Néya, Zakaria Kiébré, Edgard V. Traoré, Nerbewende Sawadogo, Adjima Ouoba, Jean Zabré, Michel Peterschmitt, Mahamadou Sawadogo, Oumar Traoré
Cowpea production is constrained by several viral diseases all over the world. In Burkina Faso, eight cowpea-infecting viruses were identified using metagenomics-based approaches, including cowpea mottle virus (CPMoV). While this virus, as yet restricted to the Sudan zone, could emerge at the country scale, we aimed in this study to determine(...)

Effect of Reverse Polarisation of an Electromagnetic Field on the Performance of a Silicon PV Cell
Mamoudou Saria, Bernard Zouma, Bruno Korgo, Vinci de Dieu Bokoyo Barandja, Martial Zoungrana , Issa Zerbo, and Dieudonné Joseph Bathiebo
This paper investigated, by one-dimensional modelling, the effects of reverse polarisation of an electromagnetic field, generated by an amplitude modulation radio antenna, on the efficiency of a silicon PV cell. Through a simulation, the effects of both the incidence angle and the electromagnetic field magnitude on the power output of the PV c(...)
