Profil sociodémographique des personnes déplacées internes de Kaya et de Kongoussi (Burkina Faso)
SAWADOGO P. Maurice, SIA Drissa, ONADJA Yentéma, TIENDREBEOGO W.-T. C. Donald, NGUEMELEU É. Tchouaket
Au Burkina Faso, des attaques terroristes ont contraint une partie de la population à se déplacer vers des endroits plus sécurisés du pays, devenant ainsi des personnes déplacées internes (PDI). Toutefois, le profil sociodémographique de ces PDI n’est pas suffisamment décrit limitant ainsi la prise de décision les concernant. Avec les données(...)

α-Amylase inhibitory effects of hydroethanolic extract from seven plants commonly used for Type-II diabetes treatment in Burkina Faso
Boureima KABORE1, Mamounata DIAO1*, Samson GUENNE1,2, Hemayoro SAMA1,2, Kabakdé KABORE1, Abdoudramane SANOU1,3, Crépin Ibingou DIBALA1, Jocelyn Constant YAPI4, Kiessoun KONATE1,3 and Mamoudou Hama DICKO1
Natural α-amylase inhibitors may be beneficial in reducing the release of oligosaccharides from starch and
thereby delaying glucose absorption. This research aimed to evaluate the inhibitory effect against α-amylase and
the inhibition mode of hydroethanolic extracts from seven plants traditionally used in the treatment of type II
diabetes.(...)

Effect of Mixed Bovine and Ovine Stabling on Soil Properties and on Growth and Yield of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench.) in the Sudano-Sahelian Zone of Burkina Faso
Harouna Ouédraogo, Daouda Guébré, Adama Ilboudo, Aminata Ganeme, Koulibi Fidèle Zongo, Aboubacar Coulibaly, Edmond Hien
In Burkina Faso, okra is one of the most important vegetable crops. Low soil fertility is one of the major constraints to okra production. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of mixed bovine and ovine stabling on soil properties and on growth and yield of okra in Sudano-Sahelian zone. The study was conducted during the 2023-(...)

Combining ability for grain yield and other agronomic traits of early tropical maize lines under optimal, drought, and suboptimal soil nitrogen conditions
Abdoulazize Banhoro, Rasmata Nana, Yoseph Beyene, Isaiah Aleri, Andrew Chavangi, Aboubacar Sory, Marc Heijde
Maize (Zea mays L.) is crucial for food security and industrial use in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, its production is limited by drought and low soil nitrogen. Therefore, developing stress-tolerant maize hybrids is essential for enhancing productivity in the region. Effective selection of these hybrids depends on understanding the mode of inhe(...)

Investigating the Use of Local Materials for the Construction of a Solar/Biomass Hybrid Cooker
Iliyassé Konkobo, Jacques Nébié, Benjamin Kiema, Boubou Bagré, Guy Tubreoumya, Armand Bowendkuni Korsaga, Tizane Daho, and Antoine Béré
There are many locally available materials that can be used in the construction of cooking devices. Materials account for a significant portion of construction costs, and reducing their cost can help lower the overall cost of such projects. One of the most effective ways to reduce costs in the development of affordable cooking systems is to pr(...)

Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) are crucial for preventing malaria and other vector-
borne diseases, effectively reducing transmission and mortality rates. However, their
uptake remains low, influenced by textile preferences, with polyester nets being
favored for comfort, despite their shorter lifespan compared to other materials. A
