Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive cocci. It is a bacteria responsible for a wide variety of community or nosocomial diseases, sometimes benign or severe. In 2014, according to World Health Organization (WHO), more than 80% of S. aureus infections were found to be resistant to meticillin in some African regions. The objective of this wor(...)

Preparation and Characterization of Two Modified Laterite Soils for Arsenic Removal in Aqueous Solutions: Efficiency and Kinetic Modelling
Rasmane Tiendrébéogo, Yacouba Sanou, Raymond Kaboré, Samuel Paré, and Aboubacar Senou
Consumption of arsenic-contaminated water is the cause of major problems such as melanosis, hyperkeratosis and cancer. To mitigate this pollution, this study was carried out using analytical methods to prepare chemically treated laterite (TL) and chemically doped laterite with ferrihydrite (DL). The adsorbents were characterized using scanning(...)

Integrating geospatial data and multi‑criteria analysis for mapping and evaluating the mineralization potential of the Dschang pluton (Western Cameroon)
Fozing Eric Martial, Tcheumenak Kouémo Jules, Sawadogo Sâga, Chako Tchamabé Boris, Ousmanou Safianou, Foka Koagne Staelle, Nguimezap Marie Madeleine, Kwékam, Maurice
The Dschang area has substantial mineral and geological exploration potentialities. However, its basement is unclear due to lack of studies on mineral and lithology mapping, and other mineralization indices. The lithological units and potential hydrothermal alteration zones in the Dschang area are investigated here using remote sensing; geogra(...)

5G NR PRACH Detection with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN): Overcoming Cell Interference Challenges
GUEL Desire, KABORE Arsene, BASSOLE Didier
In this paper, we present a novel approach to interference detection in 5G New Radio (5G-NR) networks using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). Interference in 5G networks challenges high-quality service due to dense user equipment deployment and increased wireless environment complexity. Our CNN-based model is designed to detect Physical Ran(...)

Prevalence of asymptomatic malaria at the communal level in Burkina Faso: an application of the small area estimation approach
Hervé Bassinga, Mady Ouedraogo, Kadari Cisse, Parfait Yira, Sibiri Clément Ouedraogo, Abdou Nombré, Wofom Lydie Marie-Bernard Bance, Mathias Kuepie & Toussaint Rouamba
Background
In malaria-endemic countries, asymptomatic carriers of plasmodium represent an important reservoir for malaria transmission. Estimating the burden at a fine scale and identifying areas at high risk of asymptomatic carriage are important to guide malaria control strategies. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of asymptomatic(...)

High Frequency of CYP2C19*3 Heterozygotes Among Patients Under Clopidogrel Treatment in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
Abdoul Karim Ouattara, Yves Donald Kagambega, Teega-Wendé Clarisse Ouédraogo, Lassina Traoré, Modeste Ouedraogo, Nobila Valentin Yaméogo and Jacques Simporé
Background and Objective: Despite its widespread use in cardiology, patient’s response to clopidogrel exhibits significant interindividual variability, often leading to persistent thromboembolic complications. The hepatic Cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) superfamily plays a pivotal role in clopidogrel’s conversion to its active form and CYP2C1(...)

Cartographie de l'accès aux services de prise en charge de l'hypertension par les médecins généralistes au Burkina Faso en 2020
Relwendé Aristide Yameogo, Dakaboue Germain Mandi, Joel Bamouni, Patrice Zabsonre, Nicolas Meda
Introduction: arterial hypertension (AH) is a public health problem in Burkina Faso. Its management is not the sole responsibility of the specialist but requires the participation of all healthcare actors within a care network, with the involvement of those at the forefront. This study aimed to analyse and map the capacity for managing hyperte(...)

Predicting power and solar energy using neural networks and PCA with meteorological parameters from Diass and Taïba Ndiaye
Sambalaye Diop, Papa Silly Traore, Mamadou Lamine Ndiaye, Issa Zerbo, Vincent Sambou
The excessive reliance on conventional fossil fuel-based resources poses a significant threat to our environment. To mitigate this impact, it has become increasingly crucial to increase the integration of intermittent and non-polluting energy sources into our electrical grids. However, while this higher penetration rate brings benefits such as(...)
