Mathematical analysis of the effects of precarious health system on COVID-19 transmission dynamics: case of Burkina Faso
Ousmane Koutou, Komi Afassinou, Adama Ouedraogo, Abou Bakari Diabate
In the early moments of the pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the level of e ectiveness in treatment and management of patients was limited due to the lack of e ective medications and adapted infrastructures in several countries especially in most developing countries. In this study, we propose an SIR-pattern model to investigat(...)

Cutaneous Tuberculosis in a Hemodialysis Patient in a Tertiary Hospital in Burkina Faso
Sinon, Naadyatou Bèga, Yéremadè Juste Bonzi, Aïda Sandrine Ouédraogo, Alassane Dianda, Patrice Zoehinga, Gérard Coulibaly, and Pascal Antoine Niamba
Pulmonary lesions remain a significant public health problem. Extrapulmonary lesions can occur.
Cutaneous localization is uncommon and favored by immunosuppression, such as chronic
hemodialysis. Chronic non-healing wounds of immunocompromised patients are very often neglected. In developing countries, diagnosis is usually complicated and del(...)

Study of the thermo-physical parameters of wood using a calorimeter cone
Baguian Abdoul Fayçal, Lingani Abdel Kader Hounsouho, Dabilgou Téré , Ye Siedouba Georges, Zaida Justin, Kam Sié, Ouiminga Koucka Salifou and Bere Antoine
Our study involves characterizing the thermo-physical parameters of materials found in habitats, to understand their degradation mechanisms. It has shown that the mechanical and physical properties of wood are dependent on many factors such as density or heat source, which can be influential and easier or harder to quantify. Bete, red and whit(...)

Les lacs de barrage rendent d’énormes services aux
populations locales du Burkina Faso. Mais, ces eaux
de surfaces sont de plus en plus confrontées aux
problèmes de pollution dû aux diverses pressions
anthropiques, affectant les composantes biologiques
et compromettant les services écosystémiques.

A new monopartite begomovirus infecting Melochia tomentosa in Burkina Faso
Alassane Ouattara, Dadjata Kéré, Murielle Hoareau, Kadidia Koïta, Pierre Lefeuvre, Jean‑Michel Lett
This is the first description of the complete genome sequence of a newly characterized monopartite begomovirus isolated from an asymptomatic uncultivated plant, Melochia tomentosa, collected in Burkina Faso. The sequence was obtained through rolling-circle amplification, cloning, and Sanger sequencing. The provisional species name “Begomovirus(...)

Influence of fruit traits and seed provenance on the seed germination of Saba senegalensis (A. DC.) Pichon in Burkina Faso: implications for the domestication.
Blaise Kabré, Benjamin Lankoandé, Aboubacar‑Oumar Zon, Hassane Ouédraogo, Amadé Ouédraogo
Saba senegalensis fruits provide an important subsistence and income source for people in West African Sahelian areas. However, the increasing pressure on ecosystems is causing substantial damage to plants, which could result in a serious threat to the species. It is therefore crucial to develop successful strategies for its conservation. This(...)

Comparative phytochemical profile and biological activity of three Terminalia species as alternative antimicrobial therapies
Jotham Yhi-pênê N’do, Dramane Paré, Loyapin Bondé , Adama Hilou
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Medicinal plants can help combat antibiotic resistance by providing novel, active molecules. Three plant species of the Terminalia genus are widely used in traditional medicine in the Mouhoun region for the treatment of cutaneous and respiratory dis- eases. Therefore, it is important to determine the ethnopharma(...)

Plant Agrobiodiversity, Agricultural and Phytosanitary Practices of Market Garden Crops in the Centre‐East Region of Burkina Faso
Issouf Zerbo, Kounbo Dabiré, Sibiry Albert Kaboré, Constant Martin Sawadogo, Adjima Thiombiano
Introduction
In West Africa, market gardeners use various agricultural practices to increase yields. However, many of these practices do not comply with agroecological standards and cause intoxication, pollution, soil degradation and biodiversity loss. This study characterizes the plant agrobiodiversity of market garden crops grown during the(...)

Health interest of cholesterol and phytosterols and their contribution to one health approach: Review
ZIO Souleymane, TARNAGDA Bakary, TAPSOBA François, et SAVADOGO Aly
Plants and animals are potential sources of food, particularly lipids. They are sources of nutrients for humans, and are used in various applications in food industries. Foods whose lipids consumed, have benefits for animal and human health. Sterols are among the compounds essential to the well-being of living beings. Phytosterols are derived(...)

Stunting and academic trajectory in urban settings of Burkina Faso
Gansaobré RJ, Moore L, Kobiané J-F, Sié A, Haddad S
Background
Impaired growth in childhood can lead to poor cognitive development and low school performance. However, literature on the effects of stunting on school trajectory is very limited. The primary objective of this research was to estimate the age at which children start school according to levels of height-for-age z-score (stunting).(...)

The hormonal shift occurring in pregnant women is crucial for the outcome of pregnancy. We conducted a study in pregnant women living in a malaria endemic area to determine the potential effect of gestational age on the modulation of the endocrine system by cortisol and prolactin production during pregnancy. Primigravidae and multigravidae wit(...)
