In Burkina Faso, malnutrition is a public health problem. Despite
the significant drop in the prevalence of malnutrition since 2009 according to
the Directorate of Nutrition, malnutrition is still a major concern with regard to
its consequences. The objective of this study was to determine the factors
associated with acute malnutrition(...)

Abstract: In West Africa, Aedes aegypti remains the major vector of dengue virus. Since 2013, dengue
fever has been reemerging in Burkina Faso with annual outbreaks, thus becoming a major public
health problem. Its control relies on vector control, which is unfortunately facing the problem of
insecticide resistance. At the time of this stud(...)

The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the promoter region of MMP-1 (at 1607 bp) and MMP-3 (at 1171 bp) create Ets binding sites. Correlations between these SNPs and sensitivity to several biological processes such as metastasis and recurrence of cancer have been reported in several studies.
In this case-control study, we looked for thes(...)

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(...)

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(...)

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(...)

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(...)

Association of TNF-α-308G/A and IL-18 Polymorphisms with risk of HPV infection among sexually active women in Burkina Faso.
Traore IMA, Zohoncon TM, Djigma FW, Compaore TR, Traore Y, Simpore J.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the most common sexually transmitted
infection worldwide. Persistence infection can lead to the development of
cervical cancer potentially due to some genetic factors such as polymorphisms in
regulatory and coding regions of cytokine genes. The purpose of this study was
to determine whether there(...)
