L’IMAGE DESCRIPTIVE DE L’AFRIQUE TRADITIONNELLE DANS L’ANTEDESTIN DE DRAMANE KONATÉ
DRABO Alidieta
La tradition est l’essence de l’existence de l’Afrique noire. Elle incarne
d’innombrables valeurs presqu’indélébiles comparables à l’inhérence de la couleur
de la peau de l’Africain. De la croyance à l’ontologie, les africains arborent sans
ambages la profondeur de leur être tant au foyer domanial qu’à l’étranger. Surpris et

Local Knowledge, Perceptions and Uses Values of Senna obtusifolia (L.) H.S. Irwin & Barneby, an Invasive Native Plant Species in Burkina Faso, West Africa
Alhassane Zare, Innocent Charles Emmanuel Traore, Bossila Seraphin Hien, Loyapin Bonde, Oumarou Ouedraogo
Invasive species are known to be a threat to agriculture and biodiversity. Thus, many studies have focused on the negative ecological impacts of invasive species, while their importance to livelihoods and human well-being has received little attention. This study aimed to explore people's ethno-ecological knowledge about the invasion of Senna(...)

The Challenge of Radiological Evaluation of T4 Breast Cancer During Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in a Resource-Limited Country
Ouedraogo Nina-Astrid, Bambara Augustin Tozoula, Atenguena Okobalemba Etienne , Kabore Bernard , Akanni Faycal, Sama Alice Cynthia , Diallo Ousseini, Cisse Rabiou,
Locally advanced breast cancer, including Tumor-Node-Metastasis (TNM) stage T4, is the most frequently
diagnosed cancer in Burkina Faso. Breast imaging is essential in the initial assessment and evaluation of the response of breast cancers under neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). A therapeutic challenge is posed by the poverty of the population(...)

Factors associated with childhood chronic malnutrition in West and Central Africa: a scoping review
Pengdewende Maurice Sawadogo, Drissa Sia, Eric Tchouaket Nguemeleu, Jean-François Kobiané, Yentéma Onadja, Stéphanie Robins
Chronic malnutrition is a major public health concern that is the focus of a large body of scientific research. However, there is no synthesis of knowledge about the factors associated with this disease in West and Central Africa, where its prevalence is particularly high. We conducted a systematic search for scientific articles published betw(...)

Koumpingnin Nebie, Salam Sawadogo, Salifo Sawadogo, Jerome Koulidiati, Habi Y.A Lengani, Abdoul G. Sawadogo, Jerôme Babinet, Mohammed Khalloufi, Saliou Diop, Eleonore Kafando.
Background: In Burkina Faso, red blood cell (RBC) transfusion remains the crucial anaemia treatment following chronic renal failure (CRF) as erythropoietin and its analogues are unavailable. However, blood group matching beyond the ABO and Rhesus is not common in Burkina Faso. Thus, alloimmunisation is a potential issue for transfused patients(...)

Sorption of Bisphenol A as Model for Sorption Ability of Organoclays
S. Issaka Garikoé, Boubié Guel and Ingmar Persson
he arrangement of bisphenol A molecules into organoclays and their interactions with the intercalated surfactant were studied. The organoclays were prepared via solid-state intercalation of four cationic surfactants, such as dodecyltrimethyl-, tetradecyltrimethyl-, hexadecyltrimethyl-, and didodecyldimethyl-ammonium, as bromide salts, at diffe(...)
