Yaguibou Wepari Charles1, * , Pafadnam Ibrahim2 , Banouga Adjigkiga3 , Yann Cressault4 , Kagone Abdoul Karim3 , Kohio Niessan5 , Koalaga Zacharie
Electrical equipment, such as circuit breakers, often encounters operational issues, such as short-circuit failures. These malfunctions can be attributed to the deposition of aerosols containing aluminium oxide (Al2O3), calcium oxide (CaO), ferric oxide (Fe2O3), and silica (SiO2) on the devices. Previous studies have examined the influence of(...)

Forensic Linguistics: An In-Depth Exploration
Bagnoumana CISSE
Forensic linguistics which is an interdisciplinary discipline occupies a middle position between language and law. Its main focus is the analysis of linguistic evidence to aid legal investigations and judicial processes. Initially, forensic linguistics was about the analysis of disputed authorship and threatening letters; but with evolution, t(...)

“Delayed access to different diagnostic tests and its impact on accurate diagnosis of HBV-related liver diseases in Burkina Faso”
GUINGANÉ Nanelin Alice, Nicole Kamikazi, Rose Ido Da, Yusuke Shimakawa
Background: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) diagnostic tests are essential for evaluating the risk of progression to fibrosis and informing the decision for treatment eligibility. However, determining eligibility requires multiple tests, and simultaneous access to these tests can be challenging in resource-limited settings. We aimed to describe delay(...)

Soil iron (Fe II) and sulfide toxicities are major constraints to irrigated rice productivity in Burkina Faso, West Africa. This study aimed to mitigate these challenges by trialing drainage, fertilization, and iron-tolerant rice varieties, considering seasonal variations. Field experiments were conducted in the dry and rainy seasons using two(...)

The emergence and global expansion of Aedes aegypti puts more than half of all humans at risk of arbovirus infection, but the origin of this mosquito and the impact of contemporary gene flow on arbovirus control are unclear. We sequenced 1206 genomes from 73 globally distributed locations. After evolving a preference for humans in Sahelian Wes(...)

Introduction: Childhood vaccination is one of the most effective ways to prevent
serious diseases and death in children. The aim of this study was to determine
the frequency and reasons for missed opportunities for vaccination
(MOV) in children under 59 months of age admitted to the Pediatric Department
of the Yalgado Ouédraogo University(...)

Surface Water–Groundwater Interactions in a Sahelian Catchment: Exploring Hydrochemistry and Isotopes and Implications for Water Quality Management
Ouedraogo, I.; Vanclooster, M.; Huneau, F.; Vystavna, Y.; Kebede, S.; Koussoubé, Y.
The Sahel Transboundary Taoudéni Basin, covering about 20% of Burkina Faso, hosts vital
aquifers critical for water security and development. Effective groundwater monitoring is
essential for sustainable resource management. In the Kou sub-basin, groundwater quality
assessment is increasingly important. This study integrates hydrochemistry,(...)

Anemia in Children Aged 6–59 Months: Inequalities Across the 45 Provinces and 342 Communes of Burkina Faso
Hervé Bassinga, Mady Ouedraogo, Karim Ouattara, Matè Alonyenyo Labité & Moussa Coulibaly
Burkina Faso is said to have the highest prevalence of childhood anemia in sub-Saharan Africa. In 2021, approximately seven out of ten children aged 6–59 months (72%) suffered from anemia, with 29% in the mild form, 40% in the moderate form, and 2% in the severe form. Knowing the administrative units at extremely fine levels most affected by t(...)

La polycrise comme approche pour comprendre les migrations clandestines au Sahel.
Youssouf BA, Alexis Clotaire BASSOLE, Gabriel SANGLI, Lassane YAMEOGO et Touridomon Issa SOME
"L’article analyse les migrations clandestines au Sahel à travers le prisme de la polycrise, notion introduite par Edgar Morin et développée par plusieurs chercheurs contemporains. Contrairement aux approches monocausales qui réduisent les migrations à la pauvreté, au climat ou à la guerre, la polycrise met en évidence l’im(...)

La résilience sociale translocale dans le contexte de la migration burkinabè.
Abdoul-Kader MINOUNGOU et Alexis Clotaire BASSOLE
"Dans les recherches migratoires, le recours à la migration comme une forme d’adaptation aux aléas environnementaux présente des limites ; c’est ainsi que l’approche de la résilience sociale translocale qui associe la théorie bourdieusienne de la pratique à la construction sociale des services écosystémiques fût proposée.

Mise en jachère des terres et labour superficiel : quelle efficacité sur les indicateurs de la fertilité physique du sol ?
Daouda Guébré, Harouna Ouédraogo, Aminata Ganeme, Adama Ilboudo, Zédara Isaïs Boussim, Koulibi Fidèle Zongo, Edmond Hien
En Afrique subsaharienne, la pression démographique et la diminution des terres cultivables réduisent les périodes de jachère, ce qui nuit à la réhabilitation des terres dégradées. Cette étude examine le potentiel du labour superficiel comme alternative écologique au déficit de jachère dans un contexte semi-aride au Centre du Burkina Faso. Qua(...)
