Yam forms the basis of the diet of many African countries, as it is an important source of carbohydrates and other nutrients. In Burkina Faso, various yam cultivars are grown. However, data on their biochemical characteristics and nutritional value are not known, which strongly limits their use in breeding and varietal improvement programs. Th(...)

The episodic nature of gout and diagnostic uncertainty in the absence of microcrystal evidence make
it particularly difficult to estimate the frequency of gout. Our aim was to review the literature on the epidemiological
and diagnostic aspects of gout in sub-Saharan Africa.

Investigating the Impact of Base Heating and External Electric Field on PV Cell Performance under Intense Illumination
Boubacar Soro, Guy Serge Tchouadep, Esso-Ehanam Tchedre Kpeli, Ousmane Souliga, Adama Ouedraogo, Issa Zerbo, Martial Zoungrana
The characterization of the performances of a PV cell is linked to intrinsic factors of this cell. It is therefore important for us to identify the favorable or unfavorable conditions that affect the performance of PV cells. It is from this
perspective that it seems judicious to us to study the simultaneous influence of the heating of the bas(...)
