Community norms, individual attitudes and longitudinal changes in contraceptive agency among young women in Burkina Faso
Fiacre Bazié, Clémentine Rossier, Yentéma Onadja and Abdramane B. Soura
Most research exploring the factors influencing women’s decision-making power has focused on individual characteristics, particularly education, employment, or, more broadly, women’s socioeconomic status. However, some contradictory findings suggest that individual characteristics alone are insufficient to fully explain disparities in women’s(...)

Optimization of Traditional Cow's Milk Cheese Production Using a Combination of a Starter Culture and a Plant-based Coagulant (Solanum dubium)
Adam Ahmat Moussa, Ali Haroun Hissein, Boureima Kagambèga*, Alhadj Markhous Nazal and Abdelsalam Tidjani
Background: Traditional local cheese (Djibna baida) production relies on spontaneous milk acidification and plant-based coagulation.
Aims: The study aims to optimise the traditional cheese-making process through the combined use of starter cultures isolated from local cheeses (Djibna baida) and a coagulant extracted from the fruits of Solanum(...)

Maternal and cross-stage effects of Metarhizium pingshaense fungal infection on the malaria mosquito Anopheles coluzzii life-history
Issiaka Sare, Mafalda Viana, Souro Abel Millogo, Doubé Lucien Lamy, Assita Tenetao, Athanase Badolo, Florencia Djigma, Francesco Baldini, Etienne Bilgo
Background: Entomopathogenic fungi of the genus Metarhizium are widely used as eco-friendly biocontrol agents against insect vectors, offering a cost-effective alternative to chemical insecticides. While these fungi have demonstrated potential as larvicides against malaria vectors, their impacts on mosquito life-history traits and maternal eff(...)

Quantifying the impact of time-delayed reporting and supportive care in measles outbreak: A simulation approach for Texas, USA
Chidozie Williams Chukwu, Ousmane Koutou, Moussa Ouedraogo, Dawit Denu
This study examines how time delays in vaccination response, case reporting, and access to supportive care influence measles transmission during the recent outbreak in Texas, USA. We develop a delay-based compartmental model that captures both biological and operational features of measles control and calibrate it using Texas reported Measles(...)

Introduction
In the quest for peak performance and public health, the use of plant secondary metabolites to modulate exercise-induced fatigue is gaining traction. This narrative review explores the interaction between phytomolecules (polyphenols, terpenoids, alkaloids), redox homeostasis, and the immune system during physical exertion.

Enhanced Private key Synchronization Mechanism Security in Passkeys System Based on Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman and Zero-Knowledge Proofs
Assane Ilboudo, Didier Bassole, Désiré Guel
Based on asymmetric cryptography, Passkeys Systems are a secure authentication method that can serve as an alternative to traditional authentication methods, such as usernames and passwords. In this paper, we propose a secure approach to enhance private key synchronization mechanisms in passkeys systems. Our secure service is based on Elliptic(...)
