Emergency Intramedullary Nailing in Open Leg Fractures: What Results?
M. N. Dabiré, J. Hien, N. L. M. Ouedraogo, S. C. Da, H. Kafando, M. Kaboré, J. Simporé
Introduction: Leg fractures are the prerogative of violent trauma, which lead to pluritissular lesions, including the opening of the focus, thus worsening the prognosis. The indication of centromedullary nailing (CMN) is subject to time and trained team requirements. The aim of this work is to evaluate the results of CMN in emergency cases of(...)

It is very exceptional that a new disease becomes a true pandemic. Since its emergence in Wuhan, China, in late 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes COVID-19, has spread to nearly all countries of the world in only a few months. However, in different countries, the COVID-19 epidemic takes va(...)

Policy learning and universal health coverage in low- and middle-income countries
Joël Arthur Kiendrébéogo, Manuela De Allegri, Bruno Meessen
Learning is increasingly seen as an essential component to spur progress towards universal health coverage (UHC) in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). However, learning remains an elusive concept, with different understandings and uses that vary from one person or organisation to another. Specifically, it appears that ‘learning for UHC’(...)

Objectives: The reduction and removal of user fees for essential care services have recently become a key instrument to advance universal health coverage in sub-Saharan Africa, but no evidence exists on its cost-effectiveness. We aimed to address this gap by estimating the cost-effectiveness of 2 user-fee exemption interventions in Burkina Fas(...)

Valérie B. Bazie, Abdoul Karim Ouattara, Tani Sagna, Tegwindé Rebeca Compaore, Serge Théophile Soubeiga, Pegdwendé Abel Sorgho, Albert Théophane Yonli, Jacques Simpore
The spread of resistance to antimalarials is a major public health problem worldwide and especially in sub-Saharan Africa where the highest morbidity and mortality rates are found with a critical scarcity of data on resistance. The objective of this review is to describe the mutations in the pfdhfr, pfdhps and k13 genes associated with resista(...)
