Resistance Evaluation of Pearl Millet- Male-Sterility Maintainer Populations against Downy Mildew Disease in Burkina Faso
Mady Sawadogo; Inoussa Drabo; Armel Rouamba; Nerbéwendé Sawadogo
Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum [L.] R. Br.) is an important cereal crop in semi-arid regions, but its production is constrained by downy mildew caused by Sclerospora graminicola. The development of resistant male-sterility maintainer lines is important for improving the resistance of pearl millet hybrids. This study aimed to develop and scr(...)

MITRE-CAPE-2026: A Novel Dataset for Cyber Attackers Profiling Enhancement
Saoudata Bougma, Didier Bassolé, Sidwendluian Romaric Nana, P. Justin Kouraogo
Experimental cybersecurity research has traditionally relied on using datasets to train intrusion detection systems (IDS). However, current solutions suffer from outdated reference data and an event-centric approach limited to binary traffic classification or attack type identification. This article argues that threat anticipation requires a p(...)

Agentivité reproductive, utilisation de la contraception et expérience des rapports sexuels non souhaités chez les femmes burkinabè
Fiacre BAZIE, Yentéma ONADJA, Abdramane B. SOURA, Georges GUIELLA
Cette étude analyse les liens entre l’agentivité reproductive des femmes et deux résultats de santé reproductive au Burkina Faso : l’utilisation d’une méthode contraceptive moderne et l’expérience de rapports sexuels non souhaités. À partir des données PMA collectées auprès des femmes en âge de procréer (15-49 ans), cette recherche utilise une(...)

Formulation et évaluation des comprimés de furosémide à désagrégation rapide
Bavouma C Sombié, Amanda MM Traoré, Isaïe Nyamba, Hermine Zimé - Diawara, Josias G. Yaméogo, Rasmané Semdé
Les formes orales liquides de furosémide sont très peu disponibles sur le marché. Les alternatives de préparation sur mesure réalisées en milieu hospitalier pour la prise en charge des patients pédiatriques présentent des phénomènes d’instabilité. L’objectif de cette étude était de mettre au point des comprimés à dispersion rapide de furosémid(...)

Changes in the use of basic obstetric care in sub-Saharan Africa: evidence from demographic and health surveys using an Oaxaca-Blinder approach
Hervé Bassinga, Douba Nabié, Oumy Ndiaye, Ouattara Karim, Matè Alonyenyo Labité, Daniel Mwanga
Background
The widespread mobilisation to improve maternal health over recent decades has led to increased prenatal consultations and assisted deliveries, resulting in a significant reduction in maternal mortality in many sub-Saharan African countries. This paper examines the progress made in basic obstetric care in four sub-Saharan African(...)
