Background: Breast cancer mortality remains high in the majority of developing countries. The Ministry of Health has established two population-based cancer registries in Benin: the first one in Cotonou in 2014 and the second one in Parakou in 2017. However, there is a scarcity of data on breast cancer survival and prognosis in Benin Republic.(...)

Use of supercritical CO2 for the sterilization of liposomes: Study of the influence of sterilization conditions on the chemical and physical stability of phospholipids and liposomes
Kouka Luc Delma, Noémie Penoy, Abdoul Karim Sakira, Sabrina Egrek, Rosalie Sacheli, Bruno Grignard, Marie-Pierre Hayette, Touridomon Issa Somé, Brigitte Evrard, Rasmané Semdé, Géraldine Piel
The effects of four potential supercritical carbon dioxide (ScCO2) sterilization conditions on the chemical stability
of 9 phospholipids and on the physicochemical characteristics of liposomes consisting of stable phospholipids,
as well as their sterilization efficiency were evaluated. These conditions were : C1 (ScCO2/70 ◦C/150

Le Conseil National de la Révolution (CNR) et la gestion de l’électricité au Burkina Faso (1983-1987)
DEMBEGA Salam
Depuis la nationalisation de son secteur énergétique en 1968, la Haute-Volta tente de vulgariser l’usage de l’électricité. Essentiellement produite à partir d’hydrocarbures importés et aux coûts en constante augmentation, cette énergie reste limitée à un cercle restreint de villes où sa gestion était marquée par des déficits liés au manque de(...)

Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices Related to Antibiotic Use and Antibiotic Resistance among Poultry Farmers in Urban and Peri-Urban Areas of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
Sawadogo Abdallah , Kagambèga Assèta , Moodley Arshnee , Ouedraogo Abdoul Aziz, Barro Nicolas and Dione Michel
Increased use of antibiotics in livestock is a public health concern, as it poses risks of antibiotic residues and antibiotic-resistant pathogens entering the food chains and infecting humans. A cross-sectional survey was conducted on 216 poultry farms to study knowledge, attitudes and practices of poultry farmers on the use of antibiotics in(...)

Analysis of Dengue Disease Transmission Model with General Incidence Functions
Harouna OUEDRAOGO and Aboudramane GUIRO
In this work, we propose a non-linear system of differential equations that models the dynamics of transmission of dengue fever. Then, we perform a stability analysis of this model. In particular, we prove that when the threshold of the model called the basic reproduction ratio is less than unity, the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymp(...)

Yennenga, un pôle urbain futuriste alambiqué dans le Grand Ouaga au Burkina Faso
SOMA Assonsi
À l’instar des villes ouest-africaines, le problème de logements se pose avec acuité à Ouagadougou,
capitale du Burkina Faso. Afin de remédier à l’insuffisance de l’offre par l’autorité publique, des
promoteurs immobiliers privés s’y investissent. Le pôle urbain Yennenga, initié par un promoteur
immobilier privé à la périphérie sud-est du G(...)

Introduction: Central Nervous System (CNS) malformations usually leave the family in disarray and doctors’ staff powerless. In developed countries, the rigorous application of preventive measures has contributed to a significant reduction incidence of these malformations. In African societies, mystical-religiou(...)

Supratentorial extra ventricular intraparenchymal ependymoma in a child: clinical case report
ZABSONRE Denlewende Sylvain, HARO Yakouba, TRAORE Adama, SANOU Abdoulaye, ZOUNGRANA Inoussa, KYELEM Julie Marie Adeline Wendlamita
Ependymal tumors are uncommon in intracranial tumors. Ependymal origin usually involves an intraventricular localization. Exceptional intraparenchymal extra ventricular locations have been described. We report a case of extra ventricular ependymoma managed in our department.

Modelling and optimisation of ultrasound‑assisted extraction of roselle phenolic compounds using the surface response method
Abdoudramane Sanou, Kiessoun Konaté, Kaboré kabakdé, Roger Dakuyo, David Bazié, Sama Hemayoro & Mamoudou Hama Dicko
Extracts from Hibiscus sabdariffa L. (roselle) have been used traditionally as a food, in herbal medicine, in hot and cold beverages, as flavouring or coloring agent in the food industry. In vitro and in vivo studies and trials provide evidence, but roselle is poorly characterised phytochemically due to the extraction processes. The optimizati(...)

Preparation and characterization of foamed concrete using a foaming agent and local mineral resources from Burkina Faso.
Alassane Compaoré, Moustapha Sawadogo, Youssouf Sawadogo, Moussa Ouedraogo, Brahima Sorgho, Mohamed Seynou, Philippe Blanchart, Lamine Zerbo,
The paper describes lightweight-foamed concretes (LFC) that were formulated from cement, natural sand, and
foam from a foaming agent with densities of 600 and 700 kg/m3. The identified mineral phases in the cement are
alite, belite, Celite, ferrite, calcite, and gypsum. The obtained foamed concretes have a porosity varying from
29.17 to 37.(...)

G6PD Deficiency and COVID-19 in Burkina Faso: A Possible Link?
Abdoul Karim Ouattara, Lassina Traoré, Tégwendé Rebeca Compaoré, Théodora Mahoukèdè Zohoncon, Jacques Simporé
Burkina Faso is a malaria-endemic country, with a high incidence of G6PD deficiency (G6PDd), which recorded its first case of COVID-19 in March 2020. G6PDd leads to a decrease in the efficiency of erythrocytes to combat oxidative stress, while SARS-CoV-2 infection induces massive production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in patients. In the(...)
