Phytosanitary Practices and Pesticide Levels in Fresh and Dried Mangoes Produced in Burkina Faso
Alain Gustave Yaguibou, Souleymane Zio, Bakary Tarnagda, François Tapsoba, Soumaila Konaté, Fulbert Nikiema, Aly Savadogo
Pesticides are used to control fruit flies and other potential crop pests, particularly mango in Burkina Faso. Pesticides are a potential health hazard for users and consumers and are a major constraint to the export and commercialization of mangoes. The objective of this study was to evaluate phytosanitary practices in orchards and pesticide(...)

Evaluation de la gravité des extrasystoles ventriculaires sur cœur presumé sain
Georges R.C. Millogo , Anna Tall/Thiam, Yibar Kambiré, G.H. Kiswendsida Ouedraogo , Ali Niakara, Patrice Zabsonre
Contexte : La gravité des extra systoles ventriculaires (ESV) est souvent sous-estimée dans les pays à
ressources limitées du fait du faible niveau du plateau technique. Objectif : évaluer la gravité des
ESV sur coeur présumé sain, dans les services de cardiologie de Ouagadougou. Patients et méthode :

Analysis of the deterministic and stochastic epidemic models of filariasis
KONANE Fourtoua Victorien; SAWADOGO Ragnimwendé
This article proposes two epidemic models : deterministic and stochastic models of Lymphatic filariasis. For the deterministic model, the basic reproduction number is calculated, the disease- free equilibrium of the model is determined and the stability analysed. If the basic reproduction number is less than one, by using the theorem of Varga(...)

WINNING THE PSYCHOLOGICAL WAR AGAINST OPPRESSION: THE CASE OF NAT TURNER AND SAMORY TOURE
MASSIMBO Wôkoudo Marcel, YAMEOGO Irissa, MALGOUBRI Harrouna
This article posits Nat Turner’s rebellion against slavocracy and Samory Toure’s resistance to French colonialism as cases of successful military strategies utilized by a subaltern group against a supposedly stronger enemy. It actually recognizes the two Black leaders as brilliant war strategists, who knew they were disadvantaged at many level(...)
