Microbial and nutrient cyclingresponses to termite and earthworm activities in soils amended with Piliostigma reticulatum plant residue in the Sahel
Daouda GUEBRE, Salifou Traore, Mamadou Traore, Nicola Lorenz , Edmond Hien, Richard P. Dick
Soil biodiversity is essential for sustainable crop productivity in agroecosystems by performing
various functions which regulate soil processes and nutrient cycling. Termites and earthworms
are the main group of invertebrates in the Sahel West Africa having significant effects on
ecosystem services. The objective was to determine whether t(...)

Mounirou Tchatchedre, Abdou Madjid O Amoussa, Ménonvè Atindehou, Aminata P Nacoulma, Ambaliou Sanni
Microbial infections remain public health problems because of the upsurge of bacterial resistance. The present study aimed to evaluate the anti-quorum sensing, antimicrobial activities, and chemical compositions of Acacia macrostachya. Total phenolic, flavonoid, and condensed tannin content were determined according to Folin–Ciocalteu, aluminu(...)

SYNDROME DE DANDY WALKER : A PROPOS DE 12 CAS COLLIGES A OUAGADOUGOU
YONABA C, KALMOGHO A, ZABSONRÉ S, OUÉDRAOGO F, KAFANDO P, ZOUNGRANA C, KABORE A, OUÉDRAOGO S, KAM L
Le syndrome de Dandy Walker est une malformation cérébrale congénitale rare souvent
responsable d’hydrocéphalie et de retard des acquisitions psychomotrices. Dans notre contexte, le
diagnostic est le plus souvent tardif les premiers mois de vie en absence de l’échographie anténatale.
Aussi, nous avons voulu décrire les aspects diagnostiques(...)

« Cycling and Woman’s Emancipation: A Case Study of Adama (2017) and The Odds are against Cycling (2012) »
André Kaboré
Throughout world history, there has been a cause and effect relationship between women’s cycling and feminism. The American women's rights activists, Susan Brownell Anthony (1820-1906) and Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902), for example, contended that the bicycle has contributed more towards women’s emancipation than anything else in the worl(...)

Comparative Study of Parallel VerticalJunction Solar Cell Photovoltages
Dieme Nf., Sane M., Honadia P. Ab. Aziz, Barro F. Id.
This work aims, through a theoretical study, to make a comparison of three different parallel vertical junction solar cells photovoltages (Si silicon, InAs indium arsenide and GaAs gallium arsenide). For this we have showed the evolution of these voltages with regard to temperature and the collection of the charge carrier velocity. The photovo(...)

Design and implementation of secure communication protocols for Internet of Things systems
Didier Bassole; Kisito K. Kabore; Yaya Traore; Oumarou Sie; Hatem Ben Sta
The security of Internet of Things (IoT) systems is a major issue for protection of data and safety of people. This requires developing solutions that address security issues related to the design of communication protocols between objects but also in the collection, processing, routing and storage of data. In this paper, we propose a methodol(...)

Inventory of bat (Scotophilus leucogaster, Cretzschmar 1826) ectoparasites of savannah area in Burkina Faso
Noel Gabiliga THIOMBIANO, Magloire BOUNGOU, Napoko Malika KANGOYE, Thérèse KAGONE, Amadou DICHO, Gustave B. KABRE
Scotophilus leucogaster (Cretzschmar 1826), is one of the most widespread insectivorous bats species in Burkina Faso. Despite its key role in the balance of the ecosystem, this species could be a host to a large number of ectoparasites, which can act as vectors for zoonotic agents. For this reason, we investigated on ectoparasites of S. leucog(...)

Vieillesse au Burkina Faso : des différences entre hommes et femmes ?
GNOUMOU THIOMBIANO Bilampoa, KOBUANE Jean-François et SAVADOGO Noufou
Les pays africains n’échapperont pas au vieillissement de leurs populations en raison de l’augmentation progressive de la longévité et de la baisse de la fécondité. Toutefois, avec les grands défis liés à la prise en charge de la jeunesse auxquels sont confrontés ces pays, peu d’intérêt est accordé aux personnes âgées aussi bien dans les polit(...)

GHASP: an H α kinematical survey of spiral galaxies - XIII. Distribution of luminous and dark matter in spiral and irregular nearby galaxies using H α and H I rotation curves and WISE photometry
M. Korsaga, B. Epinat, P. Amram, C. Carignan, P. Adamczyk and A. Sorgho
We present the mass models of 31 spiral and irregular nearby galaxies obtained using hybrid rotation curves (RCs) combining high-resolution GHASP Fabry-Perot Hα RCs and extended WHISP H I ones together with 3.4 μm WISE photometry. The aim is to compare the dark matter (DM) halo properties within the optical radius using only H α RCs with the e(...)
