The Population Seen from Space: When Satellite Images Come to the Rescue of the Census
Edith Darin, Mathias Kuépié, Hervé Bassinga, Gianluca Boo, Andrew J. Tatem, Translated by Paul Reeve
The size of the population, the denominator of many statistical indicators, is crucial for public policy. National statistical offices organize the collection of this information, most often through a census. But what happens when parts of a country are not accessible to census enumerators? Today, spatial data extracted from satellite imagery(...)

Termino ontology Resources of Endogenous Agro-Sylvo Pastoral Practices for the Adaptation to Climate Change
Trawina, H., Traore, Y., Malo, S., Diop, I.
For the construction of the ontology of endogenous technical or practices for the adaptation of the agro-sylvo-pastoral domain to climate change, an important step is to identify the Termino-Ontological Resources (TOR). This article presents an overview of the main resources identified in the agro-sylvo-pastoral domain in general and the agric(...)

Local Knowledge, Perceptions and Uses Values of Senna obtusifolia (L.) H.S. Irwin & Barneby, an Invasive Native Plant Species in Burkina Faso, West Africa
Alhassane Zare, Innocent Charles Emmanuel Traore, Bossila Seraphin Hien, Loyapin Bonde, Oumarou Ouedraogo
Invasive species are known to be a threat to agriculture and biodiversity. Thus, many studies have focused on the negative ecological impacts of invasive species, while their importance to livelihoods and human well-being has received little attention. This study aimed to explore people's ethno-ecological knowledge about the invasion of Senna(...)

L’IMAGE DESCRIPTIVE DE L’AFRIQUE TRADITIONNELLE DANS L’ANTEDESTIN DE DRAMANE KONATÉ
DRABO Alidieta
La tradition est l’essence de l’existence de l’Afrique noire. Elle incarne
d’innombrables valeurs presqu’indélébiles comparables à l’inhérence de la couleur
de la peau de l’Africain. De la croyance à l’ontologie, les africains arborent sans
ambages la profondeur de leur être tant au foyer domanial qu’à l’étranger. Surpris et

Cerebral abcess of dental origin about a case in the Department of Stomatology Maxillofacial Surgery of University Hospital Center Yalgado Ouedraogo
Sanfo Mahamadi*, Millogo Mathieu, Coulibaly Arsene, Idani Motandi, Dargani Michel Fabien
Diffuse cervico-facial cellulitis of dental origin is a serious, potentially fatal condition that may be responsible for
focal affections or distant infections. We report a case of intracerebral suppuration following a diffuse cellulitis of
dental origin in a recently delivered woman.
Observation: It was a 30-year-old housewife living in a(...)

Evaluation of Clinical and Radiological Tumour Response during Neo-Adjuvant Breast Cancer Chemotherapy at Yalgado Ouedraogo University Hospital
Bambara Augustin Tozoula, Ouedraogo Nina-Astrid, Atenguena Okobalemba Etienne, Kabore Bernard, Akanni Fayçal, Sama Alice Cynthia, Ousseini Diallo,
Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is one of the treatment options for breast cancer. Its aim is to significantly reduce the size of the tumour in preparation for surgery. The aim of this work is to analyze the conditions
of clinical and radiological evaluation of NAC at the Yalgado Ouédraogo University Hospital (CHUYO).

All tested Bacillus strains (B54, F20, F24, F21, F26 and F44) presented variable relevant probiotic properties
(good tolerance to pH 2 and pH 4, gastric juice, bile salts, intestinal juice and phenol), with marked differences in
hydrophobicity and auto-aggregation capacity ranging from 73.62—94.71% and 49.35—92.30%, respectively. They

High Performance for Cu(In,Ga)Se2 Quaternary System-Based Solar Cells with Alternative Buffer Layers
Oubda, D., Kébré, M.B., Ouédraogo, S., Diasso, A., Zougmoré, F., Koalga, Z. and Ouattara, F.
In this study, the authors investigated the performance of different buffer layers through the electrical parameters such as Jsc, Voc, QE and η of the quaternary system Cu(In,Ga)Se2 solar cells. The performance of Cu(In,Ga)Se2solar cells has been modeled and numerically simulated by using the SCAPS- 1D device simulation tool. The cells with a(...)
