Introduction: Despite being primarily affecting males, hemophilia, a X-linked bleeding disorder,
can also concern women and girls (WG) who are hemophilia carriers (HC), as they can display
FVIII or FIX levels < 40% and, or, bleeding manifestations even with normal levels of FVIII or IX.
Aim: We sought to investigate the prevalence of hemoph(...)

Background : Les métalloprotéinases matricielles (MMP) sont des enzymes impliquées dans plusieurs processus physiologiques normaux, mais aussi pathologiques. Les variations génétiques de plusieurs promoteurs de MMP peuvent influencer la transcription et l'expression de MMP, telles que MMP-1 (1607) et MMP-3 (1171), en créant des sites de liaiso(...)

Aboveground Biomass in West African Semi‐Arid Ecosystems: Structural Diversity, Taxonomic Contributions and Environmental Drivers
Kangbéni Dimobe, Shem Kuyah, Korotimi Ouédraogo, Ebagnerin Jérôme Tondoh, Adjima Thiombiano
The role of plant diversity and biomass in ecosystem functioning and management is well recognized. However, the structural drivers of aboveground biomass (AGB) and their influence across savanna ecosystems remain understudied, particularly in semi-arid regions. Here, we hypothesized that (i) species richness and structural diversity would pos(...)
