Genetic variation in human HBB is associated with Plasmodium falciparum transmission
K. SIMPORE
Genetic factors are known to have a role in determining susceptibility to infectious diseases 1, 2, although it is unclear whether they may also influence host efficiency in transmitting pathogens. We examine variants in HBB that have been shown to be protective against malaria 3 and test whether these are associated with the transmission of t(...)

Haemoglobin C protects against clinical Plasmodium falciparum malaria
K. SIMPORE
Abstract Haemoglobin C (HbC; β6Glu→ Lys) is common in malarious areas of West Africa, especially in Burkina Faso 1, 2. Conclusive evidence exists on the protective role against severe malaria of haemoglobin S (HbS; β6Glu→ Val) heterozygosity 3, whereas conflicting results for the HbC trait have been reported 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and no epidemi(...)

Perceptions, usages et vulnérabilité des ressources végétales ligneuses dans le Sud-Ouest du Burkina Faso
A. THIOMBIANO
Abstract Au Burkina Faso, les populations rurales dépendent fortement des ressources végétales ligneuses pour la satisfaction de leurs besoins quotidiens. Dans un contexte de pression anthropique croissante, l'évaluation de la vulnérabilité des espèces s' avère un impératif majeur pour permettre la préservation et la gestion durable de ces res(...)

Association between sickle cell trait and low density parasitaemia in a P. falciparum malaria holoendemic region of Western Kenya
A. BADOLO
Aims: The frequency of the mutant gene for sickle cell is widely distributed in the sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, and the Indian subcontinent. There is epidemiologic evidence that sickle cell trait confers a survival advantage against malaria and that the selection pressure due to malaria has resulted in high frequencies of the mutant g(...)

Contribution à l'évaluation des potentialités d'Encarsia sp.(Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) comme agent de lutte biologique contre la mouche blanche du cotonnier, Be...
Encarsia sp. is the main solitary endoparasitoid developing on the larvae of the cotton whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius), in western Burkina Faso. The biological control potential of this parasitoid is currently under investigation. Studies of some population parameters and biological control assays have been undertaken in the laboratory an(...)

Pulmonary embolism mimicking acute anterior myocardial infarction: diagnostic trap
N. YAMEOGO
Pulmonary embolism remains the major malingerer of acute chest disease. The clinical and electrocardiographic manifestations may deviate to a diagnosis of myocardial infarction. We report a case of bilateral pulmonary embolism in a patient of 50 years. The electrocardiogram showed ST elevation in anteroseptal and lateral leads. The diagnosis o(...)

Congenital malformations and medical conditions associated with orofacial clefts in children in Burkina Faso
K. NAGALO
Orofacial clefts are usually isolated cases but can be associated with other congenital malformations that are either recognised or unrecognised syndromes. The reported prevalence and pattern of such associated malformations, however, vary among studies. Objectives: To assess the frequencies and aetiologies of congenital malformations and asso(...)

Equivalent susceptibility of Anopheles gambiae M and S molecular forms and Anopheles arabiensis to Plasmodium falciparum infection in Burkina Faso
A. GNEME
The Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (sl) species complex in Burkina Faso consists of Anopheles arabiensis, and molecular forms M and S of Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto (ss). Previous studies comparing the M and S forms for level of infection with Plasmodium falciparum have yielded conflicting results. Mosquito larvae were sampled from natural p(...)

Strategies trees use to overcome seasonal water limitation in an agroforestry system in semiarid West Africa
H. BAZIE
Agroforestry parklands, in which annual crops are grown under scattered mature trees, constitute the most prevalent farming system in semiarid West Africa, covering vast areas of land. The most dominant tree species in these systems is Vitellaria paradoxa, an indigenous tree to West Africa. Despite the importance of this tree in the region, no(...)
