Numerical Characterization of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Solar Cells Using Capacitance-Voltage and Capacitance-Frequency Characteristics
Daouda Oubda, Marcel B. Kebre, Soumaïla Ouédraogo, François Zougmoré, Frédéric Ouattara, Zacharie Koalga
The paper presents the effects of buffer layer thickness, operating temperature, and series resistances on the capacitancevoltage and capacitance-frequency (C-f) characteristics of the standard ZnO/CdS/OVC/Cu(In,Ga)Se2/Mo thin film solar cells.
The numerical simulation tool used is a one dimensional program: Solar Cell Capacitance Simulator ((...)

Resolution of isolated syringomyelia after removing thoracic disc herniation
EL OUADIH Youssef, COLL Guillaume, HARO Yakouba, CHAIX Remi
Syringomyelia is an abnormal cystic dilatation of the spinal cord caused by excessive accumulation of CSF (cerebrospinal fluid). The pathophysiology remains complex and unelucidated. We report a rare case of resolution of cervico-thoracic syringomyelia after thoracic disc excision in a 3 months follow-up time.

New insights into anopheles mating behavior : both males and females of Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles gambiae use visual markers to swarm ... but each in its own way
Poda S. B., Diabate A., Gnankine O., Dabire R. K., Roux Olivier
Anopheles coluzzii and An. gambiae males use ground visual markers (like dark patches) to form species-specific mating swarms at dusk, with females using the same markers to join. While sharing markers, An. coluzzii generally swarms higher or differently than An. gambiae, helping reduce hybridization. Females display "swarm-like" behavior, app(...)

Inhospital outcome of elderly patients in an intensive care unit in a Sub-Saharan hospital
Martin Lankoandé, P Bonkoungou, André Simpore, G. Somda, R A F Kabore
BACKGROUND: In Burkina Faso, demographics are changing and we are seeing a growing prevalence of older patients in intensive care units. Elderly people have increased health care needs but there is a lack of geriatric specialists. This study aimed to analyze in-hospital outcome of patients aged over 65 years, admitted to the Intensive Care Uni(...)

Background
The presence of HBV DNA in the liver (with detectable or undetectable HBV DNA in the serum) of individuals tested HBsAg negative by currently available assays is defined occult B Infection (OBI). It remains a potential transmission threat and risk to HBV chronic infection. The purpose of this study was to determine the OBI prevalen(...)
