BIODIVERSITÉ ANIMALE ET MESURES DE CONSERVATION DES ZONES HUMIDES DU BURKINA FASO (AFRIQUE DE L’OUEST)
KABORÉ Idrissa, BANCÉ Victor, OUÉDA Adama
Les zones humides d’Afrique de l’Ouest regorgent une impressionnante biodiversité et fournissent de nombreux services et produits de subsistance aux populations locales, mais elles sont fortement menacées par de multiples pressions. Cependant, les travaux de recherches sur les services écosystémiques, les produits et les études d’inventaire de(...)

Human IgG responses to Anopheles gambiae immunogenic salivary proteins in urban and rural populations of Burkina Faso: biomarkers of exposure to malaria vector bites
Michaël Kaboré, Yéri Esther Hien, Dado Jean Noël Koussé, Fatimata Thiombiano, Mireille Ouédraogo, Abdoul Rahamani Nikiema, Enock Ibrango, Nicolas Ouédraogo, Mariama K. Cherif, Sylvain Ilboudo, Toussaint Rouamba and Guillaume Sylvestre Sanou
Background Malaria control would be greatly facilitated by the development of new tools for rapidly assessing malaria transmission intensity. In malaria-endemic areas such as Burkina Faso, human populations are frequently exposed to immunomodulatory salivary components injected during mosquito blood feeding. Numerous studies have examined para(...)

HIV-1 Serodiscordant Couples in Ndjamena (Chad): Analysis of Behavioral Patterns, Viral Load and Antiretroviral Therapy Adherence
Seïd Idriss Ahmat, Hassan Mahamat Ali, Yeri Esther Hien, Adawaye Chatte, Djamaladine Mahamat Doungous, François Tabsoba, Seïdé Hamid Moussa, Zara Moussa Mahamat, Aly Savadogo, Yves Traore
The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) remains a major global public health challenge. By 2022, there were nearly 39.9 million people globally living with HIV, 53% are women and girls. Serodiscordant couples, a couple with one partner positive for HIV, play a critical role in HIV transmission. This is particularly evident in sub-Saharan Africa(...)

Tiono, Sodiomon B. Sirima, Athanase Badolo & Jacques Simporé
Despite significant progress, malaria remains a public health problem in many regions, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. This situation is partly explained by the mosquito’s resistance to insecticides and the emergence of parasite resistance to antimalarial drugs. Indeed, in spite of the various vectors’ controls, insecticide resistance emer(...)
