Comparative evaluation of carbosulfan‐ and permethrin‐impregnated curtains for preventing house‐entry by the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae in Burkina Faso
A. BADOLO
Pyrethroid‐impregnated bednets and curtains are widely employed to reduce the risk of malaria transmission, but pyrethroid‐resistance is becoming more prevalent among malaria vector Anopheles mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae). As an alternative treatment for curtains, we assessed carbosulfan (a carbamate insecticide) in comparison with permethri(...)

Epidemiological characteristics and clinical features of black African subject's resistant hypertension
N. YAMEOGO
INTRODUCTION: Few studies in sub-Saharan Africa were interested in resistant hypertension. The objectives of this study were to determine the frequency of resistant hypertension in hypertensive black African population, and to describe its clinical and therapeutic features. PATIENTS AND METHODS: From May 1, 2010 to May 31, 2012, we included co(...)

Epidemiological and clinical features, ultrasound findings and prognosis of right-sided infective endocarditis in a teaching hospital in Ouagadougou
N. YAMEOGO
Methods From January 2010 to December 2011 we recruited all patients admitted to Yalgado Ouedraogo Teaching Hospital for infective endocarditis, and selected those who had a right-sided location. The Duke criteria were used for diagnosis. We analysed entry points and underlying heart disease. The causative organisms were tracked using blood sa(...)

Regulation of the Na+‐K+(NH)‐2Cl− cotransporter of rat submandibular glands
E. KABRE
A cellular suspension from rat submandibular glands was exposed to different concentrations of NH4Cl, and the variations of the intracellular concentration of calcium ([Ca2+] i) and the intracellular pH (pHi) were measured using fura‐2 and 2′, 7′‐bis‐(2‐carboxy‐ethyl)‐5 (6)‐carboxyfluorescein. More than 5 mmol/l NH4Cl significantly increased t(...)

Contribution à l'évaluation des potentialités d'Encarsia sp.(Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) comme agent de lutte biologique contre la mouche blanche du cotonnier, Be...
Encarsia sp. is the main solitary endoparasitoid developing on the larvae of the cotton whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), in western Burkina Faso. The biological control potential of this parasitoid is currently under investigation. Studies of some population parameters and biological control assays have been undertaken in the laboratory an(...)

Floristic and dendrometric analysis of woodlands in the Sudano-Guinean zone: a case study of Belléfoungou forest reserve in Benin
A. OUEDRAOGO
A floristic and dendrometric analysis was carried out using 15 square plots of 1 ha each in the Belléfoungou forest reserve, located in the Sudano-Guinean zone of Benin. Species and diameter at breast height of trees were recorded. Multidimensional scaling and importance value index of species were used to identify vegetation types in the rese(...)

Do natural methods count? Underreporting of natural contraception in urban Burkina Faso
B. SOURA
Natural methods of contraception were widely used in developed countries until the late 1960s to space and limit childbirth. In France, when the first contraceptive surveys were conducted, researchers noticed that the use of natural methods was underreported, and questions to correct for this bias were subsequently added. The Demographic and H(...)

Insecticide resistance in malaria vectors in areas of seasonal malaria transmission in Burkina Faso: knock-down resistance gene distribution
A. BADOLO
Resistance to insecticide is the main concern for vectors control based on insecticides. We conducted a two-year monitoring on the resistance to insecticides of Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles funestus in five localities of Burkina Faso. The susceptibility to insecticides was performed using WHO test. The knock-down time (KDT) and after 24h mo(...)

Equivalent susceptibility of Anopheles gambiae M and S molecular forms and Anopheles arabiensis to Plasmodium falciparum infection in Burkina Faso
A. GNEME
The Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (sl) species complex in Burkina Faso consists of Anopheles arabiensis, and molecular forms M and S of Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto (ss). Previous studies comparing the M and S forms for level of infection with Plasmodium falciparum have yielded conflicting results. Mosquito larvae were sampled from natural p(...)

Congenital malformations and medical conditions associated with orofacial clefts in children in Burkina Faso
K. NAGALO
Orofacial clefts are usually isolated cases but can be associated with other congenital malformations that are either recognised or unrecognised syndromes. The reported prevalence and pattern of such associated malformations, however, vary among studies. Objectives: To assess the frequencies and aetiologies of congenital malformations and asso(...)
