Phytodiversity and Vulnerability of Protected Areas in Burkina Faso: Case of Péni Classified Forest
TIENDRÉBEOGO Nebnoma Romaric, OUOBA Paulin, BASTIDE Brigitte, OUOBA Yempabou Hermann, NACOULMA Blandine Marie Ivette, SOMDA Irénée, NACRO Bismarck Hassan, BOUSSIM Issiaka Joseph
Protected areas contain most of Burkina Faso’s plant biodiversity which con- fer different benefits for the communities. However, the composition of some of them remains unknown. In a context of overexploitation and climate change, it is important to have a detailed knowledge of the vegetation of forests that have not been studied, such as Pén(...)

Child Gender Related Vulnerability and Chronic Malnutrition in Burkina Faso: The Moderating Role of The Maternal Education
Pengdewendé Maurice Sawadogo, Jean-François Kobiané, Eric Tchouaket Nguemeleu, Drissa Sia, Yentéma Onadja
Background: Chronic malnutrition in children is a growth disorder resulting from a prolonged lack of nutrient intake. It is a widespread health issue in West and Central Africa where it affects one third (1/3) of children under five (05). This paper highlights the mitigation of child’s genderbased chronic malnutrition risk through maternal edu(...)

Cranio-cervico-facial injuries due to crocodile bite: a rare observation in Yalgado Ouedraogo University Hospital (Burkina Faso)
Motandi Idani*, Eric Kouassi Zegbeh N’guessan, Mathieu Millogo, Soutongnoma Patrick Ahmed Badini, Adama Zango, Bevianda Vincent Ili, Greberet Emmanuel Crezoit, Tarcissus Konsem
Human aggressions by wild animals are rare but often dramatic. Among the animals that attack humans, the
crocodile is singled out by the impressive power of its jaws, which leave very little chance of survival to the victim it
manages to grasp. Crocodile bite lesions most often affect the limbs and trunk. Cephalic injuries are exceptional an(...)

Impact of Anthropogenic Activities on the Abundance of Crocodylus suchus (Saint-Hilaire 1807) within the Nazinga Game Ranch, Burkina Faso
Ilassa Ouedraogo, Adama Oueda, M. Emmanuel Hema, Matthew H. Shirley, B. Gustave Kabre
In Burkina Faso, human activities are practiced in Nazinga Game Ranch (NGR) which is colonized by West African crocodiles Crocodylus suchus (Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire 1807) decades ago. This study which aims to estimate impact of anthropogenic activities on abundance of C. suchus has been conducted in NGR reservoirs. For data collection, C. suchu(...)

Double aortic dissection in a patient with Marfan disease. A case report
Millogo Georges Rosa Christian*, Kologo Jonas Koudougou, Seghda Taryètba André Arthur, Boro Théodore, Benon Laurence, Samadoulougou André K and Zabsonré Patrice
Marfan syndrome is a dominant autosomal genetic disease of the connective tissue, leading
to various complications. Cardiovascular complications are the main ones, with dilation of the
aorta and aortic dissection which is the main cause of death. Double dissection with diff erent
sites of departure is scarcely reported by the literature. We(...)
