Abstract:
Located in the center-west of Gabon, the city of Lambaréné is frequently affected by floods which cause material, economic and health damage. This scientific contribution presents the preliminary results of a larger study on the risks of flooding in the Ogooué basin in Lambaréné. The analysis of the flows (1959-1989), water levels (2000-2010) and rainfall common to both time periods shows that the most favorable period for floods corresponds, among others, to the months of October and November that record abundant precipitation, at the origin of the main hydrological peaks of November-December. In general, there is an evolution in phase between the pluviometric positive anomalies, flows and water heights likely to cause overflows of the waters of the Ogooué. Key words: Gabon, rainfall, water level, variability

Abstract:
In this contribution, we examine the question of the transmission of Bantu languages from the generation of the parents to the generation of children, into the specific context of Gabon. Our results are based upon a sociolinguistic survey (Zuè Elibiyo, 2008) made in two different cities of Gabon. One of these cities is located in the north-west (Libreville), and the other one in the center (Lambaréné). The data analysis shows that French language is clearly the language which the great majority of the parents transmit to their children. Nevertheless, at least two Bantu local languages, Fang (A75) and Gisir (B41) are, to a certain extent, also spoken by adults to the children within the family context. Finally, we show that not all local languages of Gabon are really endangered, even though their transmission is globally in decline.

Abstract:
Background In Africa, information on dengue is limited to outbreak reports and focused on some countries with continuing transmission in West and East Africa. To estimate the proportion of dengue-positive cases among febrile patients and identify clinical indicators of dengue cases, we conducted passive facility-based fever surveillance in a catchment area population of 70,000 residents of Lambaréné and its surroundings in Gabon. Methods Non-malarial febrile patients with current fever or history of fever (≤7 days) between 1 and 55 years of age, were enrolled at Albert Schweitzer Hospital (ASH). Acute (visit 1, day of enrollment) and convalescent blood samples were collected between 10 and 21 days after enrollment. Acute/convalescent samples were tested with IgM/IgG ELISA, and a selected subset of acute samples with RT-PCR. Results Among 682 non-malarial febrile patients enrolled, 119 (17.4%) were identified as dengue-positive (94 dengue-confirmed and 25 dengue-probable cases). Of these dengue-positive cases, 14 were confirmed with PCR, and based on serotyping, two infections were identified to be DENV-2 and two were DENV-3. The majority of our enrolled patients were <25 years of age and close to 80% of our dengue-positive cases were <15 years of age. In adjusted analyses, retro-orbital pain and abdominal pain were 2.7 and 1.6 times more frequently found among dengue-positive cases, compared to non-dengue cases. Conclusion Lambaréné is not considered dengue-endemic. However, one in six non-malarial febrile episodes was found to be dengue-positive in the study period. Dengue should be considered more frequently in clinicians’ diagnosis among non-malarial febrile patients in Lambaréné. Given the lack of data on dengue in Gabon, additional prospective and longitudinal studies would help to further define the burden and patterns of dengue for improved case detection.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease affecting the blood cell. As a chronic disease, schistosomiasis particularly impacts on the human host’s haematological profile. We assessed here the impact of urogenital schistosomiasis on the full blood counts (FBC) as proxy diagnostic tool for schistosomiasis. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among school children living in Lambaréné, Gabon. Schistosomiasis status was determined using urine filtration technique. EDTA blood samples were analysed using a Pentra ABX 60® analyzer. Results Compared to their infection-free counterparts, school children infected with Schistosoma haematobium displayed an altered FBC profile, with changes in all three blood cell lines. Adjusted for praziquantel intake, soil-transmitted helminthic infections and Plasmodium falciparum infection status, schistosomiasis was independently associated with a decreasing trend of mean haemoglobin (β = − 0.20 g/dL, p-value = 0.08) and hematocrit (β = − 0.61%, p-value = 0.06) levels, a lower mean MCV (β = − 1.50µm3, p-value = 0.02) and MCH (β = − 0.54 pg, p-value = 0.04), and higher platelet (β = 28.2 103/mm3, p-value = 0.002) and leukocyte (β = 1.13 103/mm3, p-value = 0.0003) counts, respectively. Conclusions Schistosomiasis is associated with a characteristic FBC profile of schoolchildren living in Lambaréné, indicating the necessity to consider schistosomiasis as a single cause of disease, or a co-morbidity, when interpreting FBC in endemic areas.

Abstract:
IN 1929, the French colonial administration's forced recruitment of labor for two road construction projects designed to create more effective transportation links between the town of Lambaréné on the Middle Ogooué and the colonial post at Mouila on the Upper Ngounié led to food shortages in several parts of southern Gabon. A disturbing pattern had developed over the previous 15 years where colonial demands for labor led to disruptions in the seasonal cycle of agricultural production. Able-bodied men forced to gather forest products or work as porters to pay the head tax, or required to participate in the construction of colonial infrastructure projects, or even willingly employed as laborers in the growing timber industry, could not meet their traditional obligations to clear fields for women farmers during the long dry season (generally June to September), thus leading to poor harvests and food shortages. French officials at the end of the 1920s were especially anxious as the Fang populations in the northern portion of the colony had experienced severe famine several years earlier, partly due to male workers being recruited into the timber industry. Memories of famine occurring between 1916 and 1918 were also quite vivid among the peoples living along the Ngounié. Labor recruitment for the timber industry and colonial infrastructure projects remained a precarious enterprise at the outset of the 1930s. Yet by the 1940s, the most difficult segment of the Lambaréné–Mouila road network – a 50 kilometer stretch through hilly, forested terrain south of Lambaréné – was completed without resorting to forced labor and without the threat of food shortages. The intervening decade had witnessed the final stage of the transformation of Gabonese labor wrought by the French colonial presence, a transformation that broke the pre-colonial system of labor exploitation controlled by clan leaders. At the outbreak of World War II, the process had advanced to the point that there now existed a ‘labor market’ in the French Equatorial Africa federation integrated into the capitalist wage-earning sector and capable of accomplishing infrastructure projects without disastrous consequences for the local population. We argue that the predominance of the timber industry in Gabon placed these developments on a strangely ambiguous path when compared to the growth of capitalist wage-labor in other parts of the continent.

Abstract:
L'étude de la dynamique de la ville de Lambarene a permis de distinguer les différents facteurs qui contribuent au développement de cette cité. Sur le plan géographique, Lambarene occupe, une position stratégique ; elle est le nœud de relation, le carrefour de réseaux de communication routière et fluviale. Sa position centrale et ses atouts économiques expliquent l'afflux des populations de diverses origines nationales et étrangères. La multiplicité, le brassage et la diversité de celles-ci font de Lambarene un véritable melting-pot. Au plan économique et industriel, alors que les petites villes sont en général mono-industrielles, Lambarene est pluri-industrielle. Ce caractère pluri-industriel est dû au grand nombre d'entreprises étrangères qui participent fortement au développement de cette agglomération. La présence de ces multinationales est révélatrice de l'ancrage et de l'ouverture de Lambarene à la mondialisation. L'intérêt de cette étude s'articule autour de la double dynamique démographique et économique qui sous-tend le développement de Lambarene et en fait un pôle économique d'importance au Gabon
The study of the dynamics of the town of Lambarene made it possible to distinguish the various factors which contribute to the development of this city. On the geographical level, Lambarene occupies, a strategic position; it is the node of relation, the crossroads of communication networks road and river. Its central position and its economic assets explain the surge of the populations of various national and foreign origins. The multiplicity, the mixing and the diversity of those make of Lambarene a genuine melting-pot. With the economic plan and industrialist, whereas the small towns are in general mono-industrial, Lambarene is pluri-industrial. This character pluri-industrialist is due to a large number of foreign companies which strongly take part in the development of this urban area. The presence of these multinationals is revealing anchoring and opening of Lambarene to globalization. The interest of this study is articulated around the double demographic and economic dynamics which underlies the development of Lambarene and in fact an economic pole of importance in Gabon

Abstract:
Le constat qu'aujourd'hui les langues ethniques gabonaises ne sont plus assez parlées par les jeunes ne peut qu'accentuer la nécessité pour les parents de transmettre leurs langues à leurs enfants. L'approche adoptée ici est centrée sur l'analyse des phénomènes endogroupes et exogroupes. Ce qui nous interpelle, c'est d'un côté l'analyse des processus interactifs à l'intérieur d'un même groupe linguistique, et d'un autre côté, les rapports que les locuteurs des différentes langues entretiennent entre eux. L'étude s'appuie sur des usages déclarés issus d'une enquête menée dans deux villes du Gabon (Libreville et Lambaréné), choisies pour leur caractère multiethnique. Il en résulte que pour la transmission des langues ethniques au Gabon, la famille est encore une valeur sure. Cependant, conscient que le seul volet familial ne suffit plus au maintien des langues ethniques, nous devons envisager leur introduction à l'école : nous nous basons sur l'échec des tentatives d'introductions dans le système éducatif pour nous interroger sur la portée des politiques linguistiques mises en œuvre au niveau national. L'examen de celles-ci conduit à la conclusion que les langues ethniques ne sont pas encore aménagées au Gabon pour l'enseignement. Leur statut est encore précaire face à l'impérialisme de la langue coloniale, le français
With the notice that, today, Gabonese ethnic languages are less spoken by the young, parents become more concern with the necessity to pass on their language to their children. The approach adopted here is based on the analysis of endogroup and exogroup phenomena. We examine, on the one hand the interaction process among members of a linguistic group, and on the other hand the relationships that speakers of different ethnic languages may have one another. Our study is backed upon declared usages stemming from a survey carried out in two Gabonese cities (Libreville and Lambaréné), chosen because of their multiethnic feature. It comes out from this survey that the family still stands as a trustworthy element for the transmission of ethnic languages in Gabon. However, conscious of the fact that the only domestic unit seems not sufficient enough for the maintaining of ethnic languages, we must consider their introduction in the curriculum. But with regard the failure of the various attempts to introduce ethnic languages in the education system, we start wondering about the range of the linguistic policies implemented on the national level. The review of these policies allows us to conclude that the learning of Gabonese ethnic languages needs first a language planning. Their statute is still precarious before the imperialism of the colonial language, French

This dissertation begins with a broad overview of juridical and historical controversies surrounding abortion in the world followed by an analysis of attitudes and practices in diverse socio-cultural contexts linked to gender relations, unwanted pregnancy and unsafe abortion. We then examine articulations between traditional, colonial and modern medicine in Gabon. That panorama brings us to our study of the obstacles women with medical emergencies face in accessing modern health care.The objective of this doctoral research is to elaborate and apply a methodology for studying the network of actors involved in practices connected to abortion in order to better understand resistance to socio-clinical and juridical change. What is the formal and informal health care system of medical providers in matters related to abortion and what are the obstacles that providers and women must transverse to offer (providers) and obtain (women) this service? Specifically, an investigation of social and institutional interactions was conducted in urban hospital settings and in surrounding rural areas. That led us to detect different extra-medical and intra-medical barriers to emergency care access following unsafe abortion complications. In this way, we focused, on one side, upon the discourse, practices and medical contexts of health professionals while, on the other side, privileging the accounts women recited of their strategies for terminating pregnancies with or without medical help and for accessing modern care despite the obstacles.Content analysis of interviews revealed major barriers to emergency care access. Those difficulties start in the social environment with the search for abortion products and for initial treatments (self-medication and visits to the pharmacy or to traditional practitioners). In cases of advanced complications, extra-medical obstacles intensify with greater geographic distance, transportation problems and insufficient financial means. Moreover, once those obstacles are more or less overcome, women must then confront intra-medical obstacles within emergency care hospital units. Providing access to safe abortion for Gabonese women in current times is one of the great challenges we must confront.
