Self-medication in the treatment of acute malaria: study based on users of private health drug stores in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
L T Ouédraogo, Touridomon Issa Somé, M DiarraI et P Guissou
In order to contribute to the national debate on the change of protocol of the simple forms of malaria treatment in Burkina Faso, we conducted a transversal descriptive study among 397 private pharmacies users in Ouagadougou. The aims of the study were:-making an inventory of the antimalarials and signs which led to self-medication;-identifyin(...)

Vitamin C stimulates or attenuates reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS, RNS) production depending on cell state: quantitative amperometric measurements...
I. TAPSOBA
Vitamin C (ie, ascorbic acid, AA) is widely publicized as a universal anti-oxidant and as such is introduced as a supposedly beneficial additive in most industrially processed foods. In occidental countries, it is even more and more often ingested voluntarily as an anti-oxidant supply in daily diets for the same purpose. This ubiquitous use of(...)

La déperdition scolaire au Burkina Faso
Madeleine Kaboré épouse Konkobo
L’école est d’un enjeu majeur dans le développement d’un Etat. C’est ainsi que le Burkina Faso s’est engagé à faire de la scolarisation pour tous, une réalité. Toutefois, le triste constat est que cette volonté de faire de la scolarisation pour tous une réalité est contrariée par le phénomène de la déperdition scolaire. Celle-ci se constate à(...)

Haemoglobin S and haemoglobin C: 'quick but costly' versus 'slow but gratis' genetic adaptations to Plasmodium falciparum malaria
David Modiano, Germana Bancone, Bianca Maria Ciminelli, Fiorenza Pompei, Isa Blot, Jacques Simporé, Guido Modiano
Haemoglobin S (HbS; beta6Glu-->Val) and HbC (beta6Glu-->Lys) strongly protect against clinical Plasmodium falciparum malaria. HbS, which is lethal in homozygosity, has a multi-foci origin and a widespread geographic distribution in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia whereas HbC, which has no obvious CC segregational load, occurs only in a small area(...)

Polyphenol content and antioxidant activity of fourteen wild edible fruits from Burkina Faso
Aline Lamien-Meda, Charles Euloge Lamien, Moussa Compaoré, Roland N.T. Meda , Martin Kiendrebeogo , Boukare Zeba, Jeanne F. Millogo and Odile G. Nacoulma
A total of fourteen (14) species of wild edible fruits from Burkina Faso were analyzed for their phenolic and flavonoid contents, and their antioxidant activities using the DPPH, FRAP and ABTS methods. The data obtained show that the total phenolic and total flavonoid levels were significantly higher in the acetone than in the methanol extract(...)

Tree leaves in the diet of free-ranging ruminants in three areas of Burkina Faso
H H Hansen, L Sanou and B M I Nacoulma
A study was undertaken to document the botanical composition of free ranging cattle and small ruminants in three separate areas of Burkina Faso, as the first step towards improved use and management of trees. Faecal samples were taken from cattle at three sites and from small ruminants at one site throughout a year and plant particles in the f(...)

ELECTRODEPOSITION OF CADMIUM ON N-TYPE SILICON SINGLE CRYSTALS OF DIFFERENT SURFACE ORIENTATIONS
BOUBIÉ GUEL
The mechanisms related to the initial stages of the nucleation and growth mechanism of cadmium on (100) and (111) ntype silicon have been studied as a function of different potential steps. Within appropriate potential ranges the initial deposition kinetics corresponds to a model including progressive nucleation and diffusion controlled cluste(...)

Les facteurs individuels et du milieu de vie associés à la vaccination complète des enfants en milieu rural au Burkina Faso : une approche multiniveau
Sia, Drissa, Jean-François Kobiané, Blaise Sondo et Pierre Fournier
Problématique. En dépit des efforts déployés en faveur de la vaccination, la couverture vaccinale complète au Burkina Faso reste faible et sa progression a été irrégulière : 34,7 % en 1993, 29,3 % en 1998, 43,9 % en 2003. Cette situation est plus critique en milieu rural qu’urbain. Objectif. Analyser la contribution des facteurs individuels et(...)

Preventive Effects of Nutritional Doses of Polyphenolic Molecules on Cardiac Fibrosis Associated with Metabolic Syndrome: Involvement of Osteopontin and Oxidative Stress
THIBAULT SUTRA,†,‡ CATHERINE OIRY, JACQUELINE AZAY-MILHAU, ESTELLE YOUL, RICHARD MAGOUS, PIERRE-LOUIS TEISSE`DRE, JEAN-PAUL CRISTOL AND GE ́RARD CROS
We previously showed that grape extracts enriched in different polyphenolic families were similarly able to prevent reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, although having differential effects on various features of metabolic syndrome when administered at a dose of 21 mg/kg to the fructose (60%)-fed rat (a model of metabolic syndrome). In th(...)

The aim of this study was to perform a preliminary clinical assessment of efficacy and safety of a biodegradable gentamicin-loaded monoolein gel. An open single dose, one treatment study including 19 patients with chronic osteomyelitis caused by a microorganism sensitive to gentamicin was conducted. After surgical curettage of the infected bon(...)

F Barro-Traoré 1 , M S Ouédraogo, A Sanou-Lamien, O Lompo-Goumbri, A M Bassollé, S Sawadogo, N Korsaga-Somé, P Niamba, A Traoré
Cysticercosis is an infection resulting from the larval form of the pig tapeworm, Taenia solium. The subcutaneous localizations are frequent and can have serious consequences such as neurological attacks. We report six cases among whom five men and a woman, in order to point out the severity of the disease and its possible dissemination. The p(...)
