BACKGROUND: Breast cancer is a global public health problem, the most common disease
among women. Perceptions of screening vary across regions, cultures, and socio‑economic groups,
influencing their health decisions and behaviors. The objective of this study was to analyze perceptions
and factors influencing breast cancer screening among wo(...)

GC-MS characterization of bioactive compounds from Lippia multiflora Moldenke (Verbenaceae) flower essential oils and their antibiofilm potential against resistant bacteria
Ablassé Rouamba, Moussa Compaoré, Yahaya Zoungrana, Eli Compaoré & Martin Kiendrebeogo
Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a global health challenge, partly due to biofilm formation, which protects bacteria against drugs and the immune system. This study investigated the potential of essential oils from Lippia multiflora flowers to inhibit bacterial biofilms, offering a natural alternative to address bacterial resistance. Ant(...)

A Metamodel for Simplifying Infrastructure Deployment Using Vagrant
Flavien Hervé Somda; Arnold Stéphane Kabore; Boureima Zerbo
We propose a metamodel–driven framework that replaces hand-written Ruby Vagrantfiles with validated EMF models capturing core Vagrant concepts (virtual machines, providers, networks, shares, plugins) and provisioners including Shell, Puppet, and Ansible. The framework raises the level of abstraction by allowing users to specify infrastructures(...)

Evaluation des connaissances et des pratiques des mesures de biosécurité dans la commune de Loumbila (Oubritenga), Burkina Faso : perception des pisciculteurs et implications pour la gestion sanitaire
Dissinviel Stéphane KPODA, Souhoudou SAWADOGO, Pierre OUEDRAOGO
Introduction : L’aquaculture, bien qu’en pleine expansion mondiale, reste marginale au Burkina Faso, avec une consommation annuelle de poisson estimée à 3,5 kg par habitant, contre 20 kg au niveau mondial. Introduite dans les années 1950, la pisciculture représente une alternative stratégique face à la baisse des captures halieutiques et un le(...)

Cymbopogon citratus and Lippia multiflora essential oils as alternative repellent to DEET against Anopheles gambiae s.l. in Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso
Hamadou Konaté, Moussa Namountougou, Miriam Félicité Amara, Mahamoudou Balboné, Souleymane Gnissi, Kouamé Wilfred Ulrich Kouadio, Aboubacar Karabinta, Abdoul Azize Millogo & Olivier Gnankiné
Personal protective tools, such as repellents, play a vital role in preventing mosquito-borne disease
transmission. Although N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET), a synthetic repellent, is effective against
insects, it may cause allergic reactions. Therefore, there is a need to explore effective alternative
repellents exhibiting fewer side eff(...)

Heterogeneous effects of financial inclusion on poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa
Sié Ernest Youl, Pam Zahonogo, Relwendé Sawadogo
This study examines the impact of financial inclusion on poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) using data from 45 countries between 2001 and 2020. We find clear differences in how financial inclusion affects poverty across groups of countries: In the first group, financial inclusion reduces poverty, but in the other two groups, it increases pove(...)

Measuring adult mortality from mobile phone surveys in Burkina Faso, Malawi and the Democratic Republic of the Congo
Kassoum Dianou, Bruno Masquelier, Shammi Luhar, Bruno Lankoandé , Ashira Menashe-Oren , Abdramane Soura, Hervé Bassinga, Malebogo Tlhajoane, Boniface Dulani, Pierre Z Akilimali, Georges Reniers
In many low and middle-income countries, adult mortality estimates are derived from surveys and censuses conducted through face-to-face interviews. These interviews can be time-intensive and are often impractical during health crises or humanitarian emergencies. The expansion in cellphone ownership and network coverage has created new opportun(...)

Square-mean pseudo almost automorphic Solutions of class r in the α-norm under The light of measure theory
Djendode Mbainadji, Issa Zabsonre
The main objective of this work is to study the existence and uniqueness of the square-mean (μ, ν)-pseudo almost automorphic solution of class r in the α-norm for a stochastic partial functional differential equation. For this purpose, we use the Banach contraction principle and the techniques of fractional powers of an operator to obtain the(...)

Cassava mosaic disease (CMD), caused by begomoviruses such as African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) and East African cassava mosaic virus (EACMV), poses a threat to food security in sub-Saharan Africa. Conventional PCR assays often fail to detect viral strains in symptomatic plants due to high genetic variability and recombination. In this study(...)

Mapping Agroecology Networks in Burkina Faso : Governance, Challenges and Pathways for Transition
Yasmina Tega, Hycenth Tim Ndah, Eveline Sawadogo/Compaoré, Jean-Marie Dipama and Johannes Schuler
Agroecology is recognized as a resilient agricultural system amid the ecological crisis, but
also as a social movement working towards better livelihoods for farmers. In Burkina
Faso, the dynamics among actors promoting agroecology are not well understood. Effec-
tive governance of the agroecological transition necessitates a deeper comprehe(...)
