B.F. Gribomont1, B. le Polain de Waroux1, F.A. Veyckemans2, B.K. Ki3, Y.B. Kab re3, R.C. Neighbour4, P.L. Baele1
A previously unpublished pediatric anesthesia circuit is presented here. It was invented and constructed by Dr
Bernard-François Gribomont (hence called BFG circuit) around 1965 as a response to the important pediatric
case load in the university hospital of Lovanium, near Leopoldville (now Kinshasa, DRC). The original objective
was to find(...)

« The Voice of the African Griot in Douglass’s Narrative »
André KABORÉ et Marcel W. MASSIMBO
Most critics of the Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave (1845) imputethe newness and power of its style of writing to the imitation of already existing literature of the time, such as Caleb Bingham’s The Columbian Orator (1797). This essay, however, argues that the explanation of the particularity of Douglass’s style(...)

FINITE TIME RUIN PROBABILITY IN MULTIVARIATE PERTURBED RENEWAL RISK MODEL
Frédéric Béré, Remi Guillaume Bagré, Vini Yves Bernadin Loyara and Pierre Clovis Nitiéma
This paper contributes to the approach of the bivariate risk of ruin in finite time. We deal with a problem of risk of occurrence of a claim from the Cramer-Lundberg model in which there is some by-claim (more or less zero) integrating a Brownian oscillation at the level of the reserve at a given time t.
We evaluate the probability of bivaria(...)

Effects of supercritical carbon dioxide under conditions potentially conducive to sterilization on physicochemical characteristics of a liposome formulation containing apigenin
Kouka Luc Delma, Noémie Penoy, Bruno Grignard, Rasmané Semdé, Brigitte Evrard, Géraldine Piel
In this work, the effects of four supercritical carbon dioxide (ScCO2) conditions potentially conductive to sterilization,
on physicochemical characteristics of a liposome formulation containing apigenin (AG) were investigated.
These conditions were: C1 (ScCO2/70 ◦C/150 bar/240 min), C2 (ScCO2/0.25% water/ 0.15% H2O2)/
0.5% acetic anhydride(...)

In Burkina Faso, sickle cell syndromes affect 8.42% of hospital patients. For the management of sickle cell anemia, a phytomedicine called FACA® capsules based on a mixture of roots barks powdered from Calotropis procera and Zanthozylum zanthozyloïdes has been developed. The objective of this study was to evaluate the acute and sub-chronic tox(...)

Study of antiradical activity, phospholipase A and 15-lipoxygenase inhibitory activity of eight malian medicinal plants used by traditional healers to treat inflammatory diseases
Mahamadou Ballo, Youl Estelle N.H, Traore Karim, Diakite A.S Seidina, M. Diakité, Moussa Ouédraogo, Sanogo Rokia, Sékou Bah
Pro-inflammatory enzymes play a key role in inflammatory processes and are potential targets of anti-inflammatory drugs. In this study, the objective was to evaluate the antiradical activity of the extracts and their ability to inhibit phospholipase A and 15-lipoxygenase activity. The hydroethanolic extract of revealed the strongest reducing p(...)

BACKGROUND: Despite the negative impact of unsafe abortions on women's health and rights, the degree of abortion safety remains strikingly undocumented for a large share of abortions globally. Data on how women induce abortions (method, setting, provider) are central to the measurement of abortion safety. However, health-facility statistics an(...)

Falsified drugs are of serious concern to public health worldwide, particularly for developing countries where quality control of drugs is inefficient. In law enforcement against such fake medicines, there is a need to develop reliable, fast, and inexpensive screening methods. In this work, the ability of an innovative low-cost handheld near-i(...)
