La cardiothyréose au centre hospitalier universitaire de Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso
N. YAMEOGO
Introduction: La cardiothyréose est une affection fréquente et grave à l'ouest du Burkina Faso. Notre objectif était d'étudier les caractéristiques épidémiologiques, cliniques, thérapeutiques et évolutives des cardiothyréoses au centre hospitalier universitaire de Bobo-Dioulasso. Méthodes: Etude prospective de 12 mois pourtant sur des cas de c(...)

Atrial fibrillation, frequency, etiologic factors, evolution and treatment in a cardiology department in Dakar, Senegal
N. YAMEOGO
Conclusion La fibrillation atriale est fréquente en milieu hospitalier africain et concerne des sujets relativement jeunes. L'hypertension artérielle et les valvulopathies rhumatismales sont les principaux facteurs étiologiques. Le traitement reste essentiellement médicamenteux par contrôle de la fréquence cardiaque.

Use of biopesticides in the perspective of chemical resistance management in Western Africa: The cases of Bemisia tabaci (Homotera: Aleyrodidae) and Anopheles...
Organic pesticides are used against agricultural pests in order to improve yields in Western Africa. Pyrethroid (PY), Organophosphates (OP) and Carbamates (CX) are the chemical pesticides mainly used. Unfortunately, these chemicals continue to select new resistant populations of B. tabaci, a polyphagous whitefly. Indirectly, the chemical resid(...)

Drying of “Amelie” mango (Mangifera Indica L.): Influence of temperature on drying rates and shrinkage curves from 50 to 90 C.
D. BATHIEBO
In this study, drying rates and shrinkage curves of Amelie mango are established from 50 to 90 C and the temperature influence is investigated. Results show that drying rates are greatly influenced by drying air temperature and most of the drying process takes place during the falling drying rate period. From 50 to 90 C, drying kinetics are su(...)

Association mapping by pooled sequencing identifies TOLL 11 as a protective factor against Plasmodium falciparum in Anopheles gambiae
A. GNEME
The genome-wide association study (GWAS) techniques that have been used for genetic mapping in other organisms have not been successfully applied to mosquitoes, which have genetic characteristics of high nucleotide diversity, low linkage disequilibrium, and complex population stratification that render population-based GWAS essentially unfeasi(...)

The kdr-bearing haplotype and susceptibility to Plasmodium falciparum in Anopheles gambiae: genetic correlation and functional testing
A. GNEME
Members of the Anopheles gambiae species complex are primary vectors of human malaria in Africa. It is known that a large haplotype shared between An. gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii by introgression carries point mutations of the voltage-gated sodium channel gene para, including the L1014F kdr mutation associated with insensitivity to pyrethro(...)

On the interest of ambipolar materials for gas sensing
Based on the electrochemical properties of a series of metallophthalocyanines this article shows that the phthalocyanine bearing four alkoxy groups and twelve fluorine atoms behaves approximately as those with eight fluorine atoms. This indicates that the electron-donating effect of one alkoxy group balances the electro-withdrawing effect of o(...)

Comparative evaluation of carbosulfan‐ and permethrin‐impregnated curtains for preventing house‐entry by the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae in Burkina Faso
A. BADOLO
Pyrethroid‐impregnated bednets and curtains are widely employed to reduce the risk of malaria transmission, but pyrethroid‐resistance is becoming more prevalent among malaria vector Anopheles mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae). As an alternative treatment for curtains, we assessed carbosulfan (a carbamate insecticide) in comparison with permethri(...)

Evolution of GOUNDRY, a cryptic subgroup of Anopheles gambiae s.l., and its impact on susceptibility to Plasmodium infection
A. GNEME
The recent discovery of a previously unknown genetic subgroup of Anopheles gambiae sensu lato underscores our incomplete understanding of complexities of vector population demographics in Anopheles. This subgroup, named GOUNDRY, does not rest indoors as adults and is highly susceptible to Plasmodium infection in the laboratory. Initial descrip(...)

Predictors of mortality of low birth weight newborns during the neonatal period: A cohort study in two health districts of Burkina Faso
Objective To determine the neonatal mortality rate among low birth weight infants, and identify the predictors of mortality during the neonatal period in two health districts in Burkina Faso. Methods A prospective cohort study of live born babies delivered in health centers that weighed less than 2500 g. Their survival status at the end of the(...)

Equivalent susceptibility of Anopheles gambiae M and S molecular forms and Anopheles arabiensis to Plasmodium falciparum infection in Burkina Faso
A. GNEME
The Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (sl) species complex in Burkina Faso consists of Anopheles arabiensis, and molecular forms M and S of Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto (ss). Previous studies comparing the M and S forms for level of infection with Plasmodium falciparum have yielded conflicting results. Mosquito larvae were sampled from natural p(...)

Floristic and dendrometric analysis of woodlands in the Sudano-Guinean zone: a case study of Belléfoungou forest reserve in Benin
A. OUEDRAOGO
A floristic and dendrometric analysis was carried out using 15 square plots of 1 ha each in the Belléfoungou forest reserve, located in the Sudano-Guinean zone of Benin. Species and diameter at breast height of trees were recorded. Multidimensional scaling and importance value index of species were used to identify vegetation types in the rese(...)

Contribution à l'évaluation des potentialités d'Encarsia sp.(Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) comme agent de lutte biologique contre la mouche blanche du cotonnier, Be...
Encarsia sp. is the main solitary endoparasitoid developing on the larvae of the cotton whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), in western Burkina Faso. The biological control potential of this parasitoid is currently under investigation. Studies of some population parameters and biological control assays have been undertaken in the laboratory an(...)
