An investigation carried out in Benin has shown that, some areas close to rivers where density of mosquitoes is high, long-lasting, insecticidal bed nets (LLINs) are permanently used. In such areas, LLINs washed every month. Based on this situation, the 20-wash minimum efficacy advised by manufacturers would be inadequate. The main goal study was evaluate effectiveness LifeNet®, Olyset® and Permanet® 2.0 several times against Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto (s.s.) populations, which have...
BackgroundBuruli ulcer is the third most common mycobacterial disease worldwide. The public health burden of this neglected tropical large, particularly in poor areas west and central Africa. development appropriate preventive strategies hampered by an incomplete understanding epidemiology transmission disease. We investigated effect drilling wells on Buruli incidence.MethodsIn case-control, quantitative survey, we obtained field data for incidence over a 10-year period from specialised...
Buruli ulcer is a neglected tropical disease caused by M. ulcerans, an environmental mycobacterium. This cutaneous infectious affects populations with poor access to sanitation, safe water and healthcare living in rural areas of West Central Africa. Stagnant open bodies surface slow-running streams are the only risk factor identified Africa, there no human-to-human transmission. Appropriate effective prevention strategies required for endemic areas. Based on multidisciplinary approach area...
Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) are a diverse group of bacterial, viral, parasitic and fungal diseases affecting people, most whom live below the poverty threshold. Several control strategies defined against these diseases, including chemotherapy Water, Hygiene Sanitation (WASH). This study assesses effect promoting hygiene sanitation on soil-transmitted helminthiasis s NTDs skin. It took place in communes Ze, Lalo, Zangnanado, three municipalities located south Benin. is formative...
In Benin, many families resort not only to consumption but also the therapeutic use of cassava (Manihot esculenta). The study assessed impact socio-economic factors on cassava, and perception actors involved in value chain Benin. Four areas high production processing, with 516 producers processors roots were surveyed. results reveal that are mostly men (83.30%) over 40 years age (53%) a primary education (73%); while processors women (83%) (65%) uneducated (55%).

Background: In lacustrine communities, whether in Benin or elsewhere, populations use impregnated mosquito nets (IMNs) as fishing nets. This depletes the lake of its fishery resources, which turn are contaminated by pyrethroids study aims to determine scale and factors associated with pyrethroid-impregnated tools municipality Sô-Ava Benin. Methods: is a cross-sectional analytical two components. First, quantitative component was made up 280 volunteers who were interviewed seven districts...
The integrated approach is the new recommendation of World Health Organization (WHO) for control neglected tropical diseases. goal this cross-sectional study was to implement in 4 municipalities with a high prevalence leprosy Benin from September 2019 August 2020. Mobile medical consultations were organized these following mobilization and sensitization populations. In municipalities, 6416 people examined. mean age (27.3 ±19.8) years. Women represented 52.7% Among examined, 1230...
Background Buruli ulcer is a neglected tropical disease caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans , an environmental mycobacterium. Although transmission of M . remains poorly understood, the main identified risk factor for acquiring living in proximity potentially contaminated water sources. Knowledge about clinical features and its physiopathology increasing, but little known recurrence due to reinfection. Methodology/Principal findings We describe two patients with reinfection as demonstrated...
