Abstract:

À partir d’une étude de cas à Ouagadougou au Burkina Faso, cet article traite du symbolisme des fleurs et de ses usages sociaux. L’histoire locale des relations entre les individus et la phytodiversité enseigne en effet que les espèces végétales sont utilisées pour leurs propriétés alimentaires, médicinales, symboliques, magiques et esthétiques. Toutefois, les différentes modalités de circulation et d’appropriation des fleurs varient selon le code culturel et le statut social des usagers. L’article montre que la culture florale burkinabé correspond à des formes d’expression esthétiques et sentimentales locales qui s’émancipent des contraintes traditionnelles pour épouser continuellement les modèles occidentaux et/ou globalisés.

Abstract:

AbstractOn the African continent, most of the activities in Astronomy are found in South Africa where full training in Astrophysics is given in a few Universities and where most of the professional astronomers and of the research instruments (from small telescopes to the 11m SALT, in the optical) can be found. In 2007, we started a full program (undergraduate and graduate) in Astrophysics at the Université de Ouagadougou and an Observatory (ODAUO), for teaching purposes, was also built. In October 2009, we put in crates the 1m Marly telescope in La Silla, Chile which will be rebuilt in 2011-12, as a full research telescope, on mount Djaogari in Burkina Faso.

Abstract:

Objective: To gain a better understanding of congenital malformations and to help reduce neonatal morbidity and mortality, particularly in a context of resource-limited countries. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study with retrospective and prospective data collection over the period from November 2019 to January 2022 was conducted in the Neonatology Unit of the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Pédiatrique Charles de Gaulle of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso (West Africa). Records of neonates with a visible malformation, neonates whose parents were accessible by telephone were included. Results: The frequency of congenital malformations was 8.4%. They affected females (51.1%), first-born siblings (25%) and full-term babies (69.6%). Osteoarticular malformations (38%), those of the eye, ear, face and neck (22.81%), followed by those of the digestive system (21.64%) were the most frequent. The case-fatality rate was 51.5%. Conclusion: Visible congenital malformations are a major cause of morbidity and mortality among neonates in our unit. To help reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with malformations, awareness-raising, early detection, prevention and improved medical care for affected neonates are needed. This is all the more true in countries where medical resources may be limited and surveillance systems need to be put in place.

Abstract:

Since the 1990s, mobile telecommunication networks have gradually become denser around the world. Nowadays, large parts of their backhaul network consist of commercial microwave links (CMLs). Since CML signals are attenuated by rainfall, the exploitation of records of this attenuation is an innovative and an inexpensive solution for precipitation monitoring purposes. Performance data from mobile operators’ networks are crucial for the implementation of this technology. Therefore, a real-time system for collecting and storing CML power levels from the mobile phone operator “Telecel Faso” in Burkina Faso has been implemented. This new acquisition system, which uses the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), can simultaneously record the transmitted and received power levels from all the CMLs to which it has access, with a time resolution of one minute. Installed at “Laboratoire des Matériaux et Environnement de l’Université Joseph KI-ZERBO (Burkina Faso)”, this acquisition system is dynamic and has gradually grown from eight, in 2019, to more than 1000 radio links of Telecel Faso’s network in 2021. The system covers the capital Ouagadougou and the main cities of Burkina Faso (Bobo Dioulasso, Ouahigouya, Koudougou, and Kaya) as well as the axes connecting Ouagadougou to these cities.

Abstract:

In West Africa, Aedes aegypti remains the major vector of dengue virus. Since 2013, dengue fever has been reemerging in Burkina Faso with annual outbreaks, thus becoming a major public health problem. Its control relies on vector control, which is unfortunately facing the problem of insecticide resistance. At the time of this study, although data on phenotypic resistance were available, information related to the metabolic resistance in Aedes populations from Burkina Faso remained very scarce. Here, we assessed the phenotypic and the metabolic resistance of Ae. aegypti populations sampled from the two main urban areas (Ouagadougou and Bobo-Dioulasso) of Burkina Faso. Insecticide susceptibility bioassays to chlorpyriphos-methyl 0.4%, bendiocarb 0.1% and deltamethrin 0.05% were performed on natural populations of Ae. aegypti using the WHO protocol. The activity of enzymes involved in the rapid detoxification of insecticides, especially non-specific esterases, oxidases (cytochrome P450) and glutathione-S-transferases, was measured on individual mosquitos. The mortality rates for deltamethrin 0.05% were low and ranged from 20.72% to 89.62% in the Bobo-Dioulasso and Ouagadougou sites, respectively. When bendiocarb 0.1% was tested, the mortality rates ranged from 7.73% to 71.23%. Interestingly, in the two urban areas, mosquitoes were found to be fully susceptible to chlorpyriphos-methyl 0.4%. Elevated activity of non-specific esterases and glutathione-S-transferases was reported, suggesting multiple resistance mechanisms involved in Ae. aegypti populations from Bobo-Dioulasso and Ouagadougou (including cytochrome P450). This update to the insecticide resistance status within Ae. aegypti populations in the two biggest cities is important to better plan dengue vectors control in the country and provides valuable information for improving vector control strategies in Burkina Faso, West Africa.

Abstract:

This article analyses recent political developments in Burkina Faso, particularly the failed coup d'état in September 2015. The coup was led by the former president's security forces (RSP), comprised of 1,300 heavily equipped and well-trained soldiers. The RSP took the president and government hostage and declared the coup d'état. The coup was condemned by most Burkinabe, civil society organisations, trade unions, and political parties, as well as by the international community. Across the country, people mobilised in popular resistance and civil disobedience. RSP soldiers patrolled and shot live rounds into neighbourhoods, while residents built barricades. Resistance mounted in Ouagadougou and elsewhere in the country, and after a few days it became clear that the coup would fail. In this article, I describe the courage and determination of the Burkinabe people in the face of the coupists and thereby show that popular resistance and revolutionary struggle are part and parcel of Burkinabe political culture. In conclusion, I discuss the prospects for a veritable democratic breakthrough in Burkina Faso.

Abstract:

RESUME: Cet article analyse les manifestations qui ont lieu le 13 décembre de chaque année au Burkina Faso en commémoration de l’assassinat en 1998 du journaliste Norbert Zongo et de trois de ses compagnons. La mobilisation suite à l’assassinat s’est transformée en mouvement intitulé « vérité et justice » qui a joué un rôle majeur pour la gauche burkinabè, malgré les tentatives d’étouffer l’affaire par le pouvoir de Blaise Compaoré. Le 13 décembre est devenu une fête alternative à la fête nationale du 11 décembre. Après l’insurrection de 2014 qui mit fin au règne du Président Blaise Compaoré, la lutte contre l’impunité a développé une nouvelle dynamique en fusionnant avec des mouvements qui luttent pour des changements sociopolitiques plus larges. L’observation participante des commémorations et des manifestations, conduite par l’auteur, apporte une analyse pour comprendre la reconfiguration de la gauche burkinabè à Ouagadougou depuis 2014. La commémoration de Norbert Zongo révèle des clivages importants au sein de la gauche, entre les anciens révolutionnaires (« les rouges ») et les jeunes de la société civile (« les insurgés »), même si, depuis quelques années, une convergence s’est formée contre l’impérialisme en général, et plus particulièrement contre la politique française. ABSTRACT: This article analyzes the demonstrations taking place on December 13 each year in Burkina Faso to commemorate the 1998 assassination of Journalist Norbert Zongo and three of his companions. At the time, the mobilization following the assassination transformed into a movement entitled “truth and justice” which played a major role for the Burkinabe leftist movement, despite attempts to cover up the affair by the regime of President Blaise Compaoré. Over the years, 13 December has become an alternative holiday to the national independence day of 11 December. After the 2014 insurrection that ended the reign of Compaoré, the fight against impunity developed a new dynamic by merging with movements fighting for broader socio-political changes. The author conducted participant observation of commemorations and manifestations that offers an analysis that aims to understand the reconfiguration of the Burkinabe leftist movements in Ouagadougou since 2014. The commemoration of Norbert Zongo reveals significant divisions within the left, between the old revolutionaries (“the reds”) and the young people from civil society (“the insurgents”), even if, in recent years, a convergence has formed against imperialism in general, and more particularly against French politics.

Abstract:

In Burkina Faso, the first case of cutaneous Leishmaniasis (CL) dates from 1960 and a few cases were reported in the following years. The objective of this review was to collect and analyze available data on CLin Burkina Faso to improve case management and control of disease transmission. A review of the literature was carried out using the PubMed, Google Scholar and Hinari databases. Publications dealing with the epidemiological aspects of CL, the parasite species involved, vectors and potential reservoir hosts, as well as drugs used in the treatment of CLwere searched. From 1960 to 1961, Burkina Faso recorded 13 cases of CL. From 2000 to 2005, an average of more than 1500 CLcases were recorded in Ouagadougou. In 2016 authors reported the results of the investigation of a second epidemic focus in Larama, Bassins region. More recently, in 2021, an investigation was carried out in a focus in the Centre-Nord region, bringing the number of CL focus to three in Burkina Faso. Leishmania major is the main species identified. In the wild area in the Ouagadougou focus, rodents Mastomys, Cricetomys, etc. have been described as the potential reservoir hosts, while in the domestic area, the animal reservoir would be the dog. In the focus of Ouagadougou, Phlebotomus duboscqi has been suspected since the 1960s as the possible vector of CL. The diagnosis is essentially microscopic. The first-line treatment meglumine antimoniate (Glucantime) accounted for only 65.9% of prescriptions. According to studies, the relapse rate after the first treatment with pentavalent antimony is about 37%. Despite the neglected disease status given to CL, there is therefore a need to strengthen the fight against this parasitosis by improving access to diagnosis and treatment, vector control and investigations to discover possible new endemic foci.

Abstract:

Objectives: To determine the incidence of sickle cell disorders (SCDs) and the feasibility of a neonatal screening programme in Ouagadougou. Methods: During 2000, 2003 and 2004, 2341 cord blood samples obtained in five maternity hospitals in Ouagadougou were screened for SCDs using an isoelectric focusing technique. The feasibility of a neonatal screening programme was evaluated. Results: The incidence of SCD was 1:57; 14 neonates were homozygous for haemoglobin (Hb)S and 27 were compound heterozygotes for HbSC. Thirty-two neonates were homozygous for HbC. The incidence of the HbC trait was 1:6; incidence of the HbS trait was 1:14. A centralized laboratory for neonatal screening of SCDs was established. Conclusions: SCDs should be considered a major public health problem in Ouagadougou. A neonatal screening programme should be implemented, but to be effective it requires strategies adapted to the local situation.

Abstract:

Introduction: The first H5N1 outbreak in Burkina Faso was reported to the World Organization for Animal Health on 3 April 2006. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of avian influenza virus, infectious bronchitis virus, and Newcastle disease virus among domestic and wild birds in highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 outbreaks areas. Methodology: We collected paired tracheal and cloacal swabs from 283 birds including 278 domestic and five wild birds (three vultures, one sparrowhawk and one Western Grey Plantain-eater) in the Central Region (Ouagadougou) and the Western Region (Bobo-Dioulasso and Sokoroni) of Burkina Faso. Total RNA extracted from samples were subjected to reverse transcription and resulting cDNA amplified by PCR using specific primers for detection of Avian Influenza Virus (AIV mainly highly pathogenic H5N1), Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV), and Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) for the first time in Burkina Faso. Results and conclusions: Our results show that 13.8% (39/283) samples were reactive for NDV, and the prevalence of IBV was 3.9% (11/283). None of the 283 birds were co-infected by AIV, IBV and/or NDV in our study areas. The prevalence of influenza A virus was 3.2% (95% CI: 0-6.6) with a 1.7% (95% CI: 0-3.2) prevalence of H5N1 being detected. Positive cases of H5N1 virus were found in two out of three vultures in Ouagadougou, and in three out of 203 local chickens in the Western Region. These results confirm the presence of influenza A H5N1 virus, IBV and NDV in domestic and wild birds in Burkina Faso.

Abstract:

Un des moyens d’implanter la révolution au Burkina-Faso (ancienne Haute-Volta) a consisté à restructurer les secteurs d’habitat spontané de la capitale, Ouagadougou, où loge 60 % de la population. Pour résoudre les problèmes d’habitat des couches populaires, le régime burkinabé a misé sur une approche collective au logement, visant à faire émerger une conscience collective de l’habitat. Mais des blocages ont empêché sa stratégie de se réaliser : blocages au point de vue de l’interprétation des objectifs par les résidants, blocages liés à l’ampleur des ressources humaines, techniques et logistiques nécessaires à l’entreprise, mauvaise allocation des ressources, gaspillage. Plus fondamentalement, c’est le projet collectif d’habitat, l’émergence d’une conscience collective de l’habitat, qui risque de ne pouvoir se réaliser : qu’adviendra-t-il de la révolution burkinabé si elle devait échouer sur une composante aussi critique de sa stratégie ?

Abstract:

Background: Psoriasis is a chronic, displaying inflammatory dermatosis. The evaluation of the psychosocial impact of chronic dermatoses on the quality of life of patients may help to orientate the objectives of management in order to improve their daily life, hence the interest of our study with the objective to evaluate the impact of psoriasis on the quality of life of patients followed in the dermatology, venereology, and rheumatology departments of the city of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Patients and Method: This was a descriptive, cross-sectional study that took place from March 1 to June 28, 2019, in six public hospitals in the city of Ouagadougou. The Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) and Psoriasis Disability Index (PDI) were the quality of life tools employed for this study. Results: Forty-eight (48) patients with psoriasis met the inclusion criteria. The mean age of the patients was 46.20 years, ranging from 22 to 79 years. There were 18 females and 30 males, with a sex ratio of 1.6. The measurement of the patients’ QoL by the DLQI reported a mean score of 9.14 out of 30. There was a low impact of the disease on the QoL for seventeen patients. The evaluation of the QOL with the PDI noted an alteration of daily activities (3.95/15) and alteration of the patients’ psychosocial relationships (2.66/18). The analysis of the QoL according to sociodemographic and clinical variables noted an alteration significantly related to age, level of education, and severity of the disease. An alteration in professional relationships was significant in female patients. An alteration in the different dimensions of the QoL was more significant in patients with a low level of education. The duration of the disease seemed to have no impact on the patients’ quality of life. Daily activities were significantly altered for patients with a PASI between 7 and 10. The DLQI did not correlate with disease severity (PASI) (r = 0.228; p = 0.120), unlike the PDI (r = 0.371; p = 0.009). Conclusion: The QoL of psoriatic patients in Ouagadougou seemed to be slightly altered. This alteration was more significant for females. Professional relationships were altered for young subjects while daily activities were altered for those older.

Abstract:

Background: Worldwide, 10 to 15% of couples are infertile. In Burkina Faso, there has never been a population-based prevalence study regarding infertility. Objective: To determine the prevalence and risk factors of infertility in Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso). Method: We conducted a cross-sectional study with prospective data collection on 480 households from March to May 2014 in Ouagadougou. In each household, both the men and the women of childbearing-age were interviewed by an investigator using a questionnaire. The main outcome was infertile men or women living in Ouagadougou. Results: The participant-reported infertility prevalence was 9.3% (95% CI: 7.0; 12.2) and 10.4% (95% CI: 7.9; 13.5) for men and women, respectively. The primary and secondary infertility prevalence rates were 4.8% (95% CI: 3.2; 7.2) and 4.4% (95% CI: 2.9; 6.7) respectively for men and 6.8% (95% CI: 4.8; 9.4) and 3.6% (95% CI: 2.2; 5.7) for women. Considering only infertile participants, primary infertility concerned 52.3% (95% CI: 37.2; 67.0) and 65.3% (95% CI: 50.6; 77.6) of men and women respectively. The medically-diagnosed infertility prevalence was 2.9% (95% CI: 1.7; 4.9) in both men and women groups. The male and female-related infertility represented 35.7% (95% CI: 13.7; 66.0) and 42.9% (95% CI: 18.3; 71.6) of the cases respectively and the dual-factor-related infertility 21.4% (95% CI: 5.9; 54.0). Conclusion: Though lower than the global and Sub-Sahara African region’s prevalence, the infertility prevalence in Ouagadougou was still high. Compared to previous data in the same country, we saw a shift from predominant secondary infertility to predominant primary one. Infections remained the leading cause of infertility.

Abstract:

Particulate matter (PM) is one of the main air pollutants with 257,000 deaths per year in Africa. Studying their toxic mechanisms of action could provide a better understanding of their effects on the population health. The objective of this study was to describe the PM10 toxic mechanism of action collected in 3 districts of Ouagadougou. Once per month and per site between November 2015 and February 2016, PM10 was sampled for 24 hours using the MiniVol TAS (AirMetrics, Eugene, USA). The collected filters were then stored in Petri dishes at room temperature for in vitro toxicological studies using human pulmonary artery endothelial cells (HPAEC) at the Bordeaux INSERM-U1045 Cardio-thoracic Research Center. The three study districts were classified based on PM10 level (high, intermediate, and low, respectively, for districts 2, 3, and 4). PM10 induced a concentration-dependent decrease in cell viability. A significant decrease in cell viability was observed at 1 µg/cm2, 10 µg/cm2, and 25 µg/cm2 for, respectively, districts 2, 3, and 4. A significant increase in the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was observed at 10 µg/cm2 for district 2 versus 5 µg/cm2 and 1 µg/cm2 for districts 3 and 4, respectively. Finally, a significant production of IL-6 was recorded from 5 µg/cm2 for district 4 versus 10 µg/cm2 for districts 2 and 3. Consequently, Ouagadougou is subjected to PM10 pollution, which can induce a significant production of ROS and IL-6 to cause adverse effects on the health of the population.

Abstract:

La production des déchets est inhérente aux activités humaines, qu’elles soient domestiques, agricoles, industrielles ou commerciales. A la faveur d’une urbanisation galopante et de ses corollaires, l’assainissement et la gestion des déchets sont devenus des préoccupations importantes. Si la situation de déchets ménagers semble connaître une évolution dans la capitale burkinabé, ce n’est pas le cas pour les déchets des industries et des transports comme les huiles usées. Ce travail avait pour objectif d’étudier la production et la gestion des huiles usées dans la ville de Ouagadougou. La méthodologie de cette étude a été basée sur des observations et des enquêtes spécifiques auprès des groupes cibles. Les résultats obtenus ont montré qu’environ 5 721 459,45 litres d’huiles usée ont été générées à Ouagadougou en 2017. Les huiles usées sont exportées à 11%, utilisées par l’industrie locale à 67% et à 22% à des fins personnelles diverses. Les conséquences sont diverses sur l’environnement. Il apparaît nécessaire vu les différents usages prohibés que le domaine soit mieux réglementé. Waste generation is inherent in human activities, whether domestic, agricultural, industrial or commercial. Thanks to rampant urbanization and its corollaries, sanitation and waste management have become major concerns. While the household waste situation seems to be changing in the Burkinabé capital, this is not the case for industrial and transport waste such as used oils. This work aimed at studying the production and management of used oils in the city of Ouagadougou. The methodology of this study was based on observations and surveys specific to the target groups. The results obtained showed that approximately 5,721,459.45 liters of used oil are generated in Ouagadougou. Used oils are exported at 11%, used by local industry at 67% and 22% for various personal purposes. The consequences for the environment are diverse. It appears necessary, given the various prohibited uses, for the area to be better regulated.

Abstract:

Background: In Burkina Faso, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay is not routinely used in the biological qualification of blood donations and this constitutes a risk factor for the transmission of occult hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection during blood transfusion. The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of occult B infection (OBI) among blood donors for the purposes of improved blood safety in Burkina Faso. Methodology: A descriptive cross-sectional study of 300 HBsAg negative blood donors was conducted in the city of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso from April to October 2020. Anti-HBc antibody was determined using the BOSON® brand rapid tests. HBV DNA was detected in 75 selected donors by real-time PCR (rt PCR) using the 7500 Fast Real Time PCR assay technique. Results: Of the 300 HBsAg negative donors, 208 (69.3%) were males while 92 (30.7%) were females, with average age of 30.18 years. Anti-HBc antibody was detected in 39 cases (13%). Of the 75 donor samples tested by rt PCR, 3 (4%) were positive for HBV DNA (occult B infection); 2 of which were anti-HBc antibody positive (seropositive OBI) while 1 was anti-HBc antibody negative (seronegative OBI). Conclusion: Given the prevalence of OBI of 4% in this study and its consequences in blood recipients, it appears necessary that in addition to the classic serological markers of hepatitis B, to test for the presence of HBV DNA among blood donors in order to improve transfusion safety. Keywords: Prevalence, Occult B infection; Blood donors, Ouagadougou. French title: Prévalence de l'infection occulte par le virus de l'hépatite B chez les donneurs de sang à Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso Contexte: Au Burkina Faso, la polymérase chain réaction (PCR) n’est pas utilisée lors de la qualification biologique des dons et cela constitue un facteur de risque de transmission de l’Infection Occulte du virus B (VHB) lors des transfusions sanguines. L’objectif de cette étude était de déterminer la prévalence de l’infection occulte B chez les donneurs de sang en vue d’une meilleure sécurité transfusionnelle. Méthodologie: Une étude transversale prospective, réalisée d’avril à octobre 2020 dans la ville de Ouagadougou incluant 300 donneurs de sang AgHBs négatif. L’anticorps anti HBc a été déterminé par les tests rapides de marque BOSON®. L’ADN du VHB a été recherché chez 75 donneurs par PCR en temps réel (rt PCR) avec le 7500 Fast Real Time PCR. Résultats: Parmi les 300 donneurs AgHBs négatifs, 208 (69,3%) étaient des hommes et 92 (30,7%) des femmes. L’âge moyen était de 30,18 ans. La recherche de l’Ac anti-HBc était positive dans 39 cas (13 %). Parmi les 75 échantillons passés à la rt PCR, 3 (4%) étaient positifs pour l’ADN du VHB. Sur les 3 cas d’ADN VHB positifs, 2 (66,67%) étaient positifs Ac anti HBc et 1 (33,33%) Ac anti HBc négatif. Conclusion: Compte tenu de la prévalence de l’infection occulte B et ses conséquences chez les donneurs de sang et chez les receveurs, il devient nécessaire de rechercher, en plus des marqueurs sérologiques classiques de l’hépatite B, l’ADN VHB pour une meilleure sécurité transfusionnelle.

Abstract:

Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate ionic disorders in malaria and dengue co-infection at Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Material and methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study with retrospective data collection, carried out in the laboratory of the Pediatric University Hospital Charles de Gaulle in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, from January 1st, 2017 to December 31st, 2019. The study was on patients who performed a thick blood drop/smear, dengue serology and blood ionogram. Results: On 1405 cases included in the study, 102 patients (7.26%) were confirmed of malaria. Dengue serology was positive in 235 patients (16.72%). The frequency of co-infection was 1.14% (n=16). The mean age of the patients was 9.93 years and the age group of 0 to 15 years represented 78.93% of the cases. There was a male predominance with a sex ratio (M/F) of 2.58. Hyponatremia (40%), hypercalcemia (40%), hypokalemia (30%) and hypophosphatemia (30%) were the main blood ionogram disturbances in malaria and dengue co-infection. The statistically significant disturbances in case of malaria and dengue co-infection were the absence of hypobicarbonatemia (p=0.036). Conclusion: Malaria and dengue are responsible for significant morbidity and mortality in Burkina Faso. Although co-infection was rare in the study (1.14%), it was associated with several blood ionogram disturbances. Evaluation and consideration of these disturbances during treatment would contribute to a better care of patients.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Aim Dental surgeons must be aware of the most appropriate endodontic treatments and how to properly conduct them. The aim of this study was to evaluate the knowledge of dental surgeons in Burkina Faso in terms of endodontic treatment procedures. Materials and methods This descriptive, cross-sectional study was performed during the regular annual conference of the National Board of Dental Surgeons of Burkina Faso, held on February 27 and 28, 2015 in Ouagadougou, through a questionnaire. Results A total of 33 practitioners took part (52.4% of the dental surgeons of Burkina Faso) in the study. The majority of them (90.9%) used sodium hypochlorite as their preferred irrigation solution. Nearly half of the dental surgeons (48.5%) did not know how to use a permeabilization file, and most did not make use of nickel–titanium (NiTi) mechanized instruments (78.8%) or rubber dams (93.9%). Approximately two-thirds of participants did not perform file-in-place radiography (66.7%) or control radiography of the canal obturation (63.6%). The adjusted single-cone technique was the most commonly used (87.9%). Conclusion This study highlights that the majority of dental surgeons in Burkina Faso are not using the currently recommended endodontic procedures to perform obturations. Clinical significance Dental surgeons in Burkina Faso must commit to regularly upgrading their knowledge and techniques.

Abstract:

The first cases of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) were recorded in the Wuhan seafood market, where a variety of mammalian animals are sold live and for direct consumption and the resulting pandemic has once again highlighted the role of human-animal interaction in the spread of pathogens. The objective of this study was to evaluate the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 among slaughterhouse workers in Burkina Faso. We carried out a cross-sectional study among slaughterhouses workers of Ouagadougou and Bobo Dioulasso between March and April 2021. We collected sociodemographic data and we performed ELISA tests to determine the presence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in slaughterhouse workers serum samples. We included 183 participants. Among these, 79 resided in Ouagadougou and 104 in Bobo Dioulasso. The majority of participants were men (179/183, or 97.81%) and the average age was 33.87 years. Of the 183 samples analyzed, 140 (76.50%) were found to be positive for anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies, including 76/104 (73.07%) in Bobo Dioulasso and 64/79 (81.01%) in Ouagadougou. Univariate analysis showed no significant association between SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity, sociodemographic data, professional profile and personal hygiene. The seroprevalence of COVID-19 among slaughterhouse workers was high in 2021. These results highlighted the circulation of SARS-CoV-2 within this population and demonstrate a high exposure of these professionals to virus.

Abstract:

Ouagadougou is a city with three million inhabitants and an increasing demand for water of sufficient quality. New boreholes are drilled to match demand, but their protection from anthropogenic contamination is insufficient. To assess the quality of urban groundwater in Ouagadougou for the first time, a total of 32 borehole water samples were collected and assessed for bacteriological and physicochemical features using established methods. Health risk inspections and hazard assessments were undertaken at sampling sites to identify potential hazards and contributing factors. Statistical analysis was used to identify associations between risk factors and water pollution. The study revealed poor quality of groundwater in Ouagadougou with major nonconformities related to total coliforms, Escherichia coli, and turbidity. Water samples from 19 boreholes (59%) were contaminated with coliforms, and 11 (34%) with E. coli. Additionally, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterococcus, and anaerobic sulphite-reducing bacterial spores were detected. Deviations from physicochemical quality requirements were observed for water turbidity, pH, nitrate, fluorine, and iron. Risk analysis showed the major high-risk practices to be sludge spreading or having a garbage heap, a latrine, a septic tank, or dirty water near a borehole. Based on these results, for public health protection, authorities must take strict measures to prohibit such practices around these important sources of drinking water in Ouagadougou.

Abstract:

Introduction: Status epilepticus is one of the most common neurological emergency, with high morbidity and mortality and an often poor functional prognosis in survivors. We carried out the present study, to describe the intra-hospital clinical course and to identify the risk factors for intra-hospital death of patients hospitalized for status epilepticus in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Patients and methods: it was a prospective, cross-sectional, multi-center hospital, descriptive and analytical study, which took place from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2019, involving patients consecutively hospitalized in the university hospitals of Ouagadougou, for status epilepticus. Sociodemographic characteristics, clinical data on admission, biological assessment on admission, EEG characteristics, brain scan and / or brain MRI results ; etiological diagnosis of status epilepticus and intra hospital evolutionary data of the patients, have been analyzed. Univariate analysis between the general characteristics of patients and the intra-hospital mortality, was performed in order to identify the risk factors for the intrahospital mortality. Results: The mean age of the patients was 36.6 years with an M / F sex ratio of 1.4 ; 66 patients (72.5%) had no clinical history of epilepsy, while 25 patients (27.5%) were already known to have epilepsy. The generalized tonic-clonic SE immediately (50.5%) and the focal secondarily generalized convulsive status epilepticus (29.7%) were the most common seizure types. The average duration of an SE episode was 18 hours. status epilepticus were subdivided into status epilepticus symptomatic of acute brain conditions with 61 cases (67%), dominated by central nervous system infections and acute strokes, and status epilepticus of non-acute or sequelae etiologies with 30 cases (33%), dominated by the sequelae of head trauma. Intra-hospital complications were dominated by prolonged post-critical mental confusion, 45 cases (49.4%) and aspiration pneumonia, 30 cases (33%). In-hospital mortality was 12.1% (11 patients). At the end of hospitalization, 49 patients (53.9%) still had moderate to severe disabilities. In univariate analysis, comatose non convulsive status epilepticus (p = 0.003), and altered consciousness on admission (p = 0.026), were the risk factors for in-hospital mortality. Conclusion: Prognosis of status epilepticus in Burkina Faso remains unfavorable with early mortality in more than one in 10 patients and poor functional outcome in more than half of the patients. Altered consciousness on admission and non-convulsive comatose status epilepticus were risk factors for early mortality. The fight against infectious diseases, the prevention of vascular risk factors, the promotion of helmet wearing in cyclists and motorcyclists, early admission of patients sufferinf of status epilepticus, and adequate and standardized management of status epilepticus, will help reduce the frequency and severity of this disease in our African regions.

Abstract:

Background Gastrointestinal infections are a global public health problem. In Burkina Faso, West Africa, exposure to Salmonella through the consumption of unhygienic street food represents a major risk of infection requiring detailed evaluation. Methods Between June 2017 and July 2018, we sampled 201 street food stalls, in 11 geographic sectors of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. We checked for Salmonella contamination in 201 sandwiches (one per seller), according to the ISO 6579:2002 standard. All Salmonella isolates were characterized by serotyping and antimicrobial susceptibility testing, and whole-genome sequencing was performed on a subset of isolates, to investigate their phylogenetic relationships and antimicrobial resistance determinants. Results The prevalence of Salmonella enterica was 17.9% (36/201) and the Salmonella isolates belonged to 16 different serotypes, the most frequent being Kentucky, Derby and Tennessee, with five isolates each. Six Salmonella isolates from serotypes Brancaster and Kentucky were multidrug-resistant (MDR). Whole-genome sequencing revealed that four of these MDR isolates belonged to the emergent S. enterica serotype Kentucky clone ST198-X1 and to an invasive lineage of S. enterica serotype Enteritidis (West African clade). Conclusion This study reveals a high prevalence of Salmonella spp. in sandwiches sold in Ouagadougou. The presence of MDR Salmonella in food on sale detected in this study is also matter of concern.

RESUME Objectif: Au cours de la saison hivernale 2014-2015, une étude portant sur neuf cultivars améliorés de tomate a été réalisée dans 5 zones agro-écologiques (Kamboinsè, Loumbila, Komgoussi, Yako et Salgo) du Burkina Faso. Les observations et mesures ont porté sur la sensibilité au flétrissement bactérien, le rendement et ces composants essentiels afin de déterminer les cultivars les mieux adaptés aux conditions de culture d’hivernage dans les zones de l’étude. Méthodologie et résultats: Le dispositif expérimental est un bloc complet de Fisher randomisé de 4 répétitions avec des traitements constitués des variétés V1, V2, V3, V4, V5 , V6, V7, V8 et V9. Les plants ont été repiqués en ligne simple en parcelles élémentaires de 37,5 m2. Les écartements sont de 0,75 m sur 0,40 m, soit une densité de 33333 pieds/ha. Les variables suivantes de productivité ont été supérieures à Yako pour la densité chez les cultivars Thorgal, Gempride, Jaguard, Mongal, Nadira respectives de 67,75; 71,75; 80,12; 99,5 et 108,75 plants/37,5 m². A Salgo pour le poids moyen du fruit chez Jaguard (56,06 g) Mongal (55,63g), FBT5 (51,1 g) et Thorgal (48,8 g) et à Kongoussi pour Gempride (55,63 g). Les cultivars Rs et Nadira ont observé des rendements meilleurs à Yako respectifs de 28,72 et 28,73 t/ha. A Salgo, les hybrides Gempride, Mongal, FBT5, Jaguard et Thorgal ont été plus performant avec respectivement 21,65; 20,3; 20,0; 17,46 et 15,14 t/ha. Conclusion et application des résultats: Selon la moyenne des rendements, les meilleurs sites ont été par ordres décroissant Yako (19,044 t/ha), Salgo (17,44), Kongoussi (7,06 t/ha), Loumbila (6,87 t/ha) et Kamboinsè (2,97 t/ha). Dans le même ordre, les meilleures variétés ont été Nadira, Rs, Gempride, Jaguar, Thorgal, Mongal, FBT5 avec respectivement 13,87, 10,79; 10,23; 9,66; 8,23 et 7,08 t/ha. Si nous couplons à cela la tolérance aux flétrissements, Jaguar, Nadira et Gempride demeurent les meilleures variétés suivies de Mongal et FBT5. Les résultats obtenus sur les 5 sites ont montré une variabilité importante. Ce qui est peut-être du à la maitrise des techniques de production qui n’ont pas été homogènes d’un site à un autre et à la particularité de chaque variété. Pour améliorer la performance de ces variétés, il paraît indiqué de poursuivre les recherches dans une approche agronomique visant la maîtrise de l’eau d’irrigation, une gestion intégrée des ravageurs et maladies pendant le cycle cultural.
