The Ouagadougou Health and Demographic Surveillance System (Ouaga HDSS), located in five neighbourhoods at the northern periphery of capital Burkina Faso, was established 2008. Data on vital events (births, deaths, unions, migration events) are collected during household visits that have taken place every 10 months. areas were selected to contrast informal (∼40 000 residents) with formal (40 000 residents), aims understanding problems urban poor, testing innovative programmes promote...
Sub-Saharan African countries like Burkina Faso face a dietary transition and are experiencing shift in disease burden. We explored perceptions of healthy environmentally sustainable habits urban order to tailor nutritional interventions the local population ultimately improve public planetary health. conducted an exploratory qualitative study with semi-structured face-to-face interviews three informal two formal neighborhoods Ouagadougou. The sample comprised 36 adult participants. were...
BackgroundMortality from external causes, of all kinds, is an important component overall mortality on a global basis. However, these deaths, like others in Africa and Asia, are often not counted or documented individual Overviews the state cause Asia therefore based uncertain information. The INDEPTH Network maintains longitudinal surveillance, including death, at population sites across which offers opportunities to document level range settings.ObjectiveTo describe patterns causes...
Studies on informal settlements in sub-Saharan Africa have questioned the health benefits of urban residence, but this should not suggest that (within cities and across and/or countries) are homogeneous. They vary terms poverty, pollution, overcrowding, criminality, social exclusion. Moreover, while some completely lack public services, others access to facilities, sewers, running water, electricity. There few comparative studies looked at countries accounting for these contextual nuances....
Sub-Saharan African populations undergo a nutrition transition towards diets associated with increased risk for metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. For targeted prevention, we aimed to characterize dietary patterns determine their sociodemographic factors of adherence.We recruited 1,018 adults aged > = 25 years from two formal three informal settlements within the Health Demographic Surveillance System, Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, between February April 2021. In cross-sectional sample,...
BackgroundMaternal mortality is higher and skilled attendance at delivery lower in the slums of Nairobi (Kenya) compared to Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso). Lower numbers public health facilities, greater distance costs maternal services could explain these differences.ObjectiveBy comparing use care among women with similar characteristics two cities, we will produce a more nuanced picture contextual factors play.DesignWe birth statistics collected between 2009 2011 all households living several...
BackgroundThe probable coexistence of two or more epidemiological profiles in urban Africa is poorly documented. In particular, very few studies have focused on the comparison cause-specific mortality between types neighborhoods that characterize contemporary southern cities: formal neighborhoods, is, structured delineated settlements (planned estates) full access to public utilities (electricity and water services), informal spontaneous unplanned peri-urban where people live slum-like...
Résumé Dans les pays moins développés, tandis que citadins plus pauvres sont susceptibles de mourir maladies transmissibles et blessures, riches pourraient souffrir d'un grand fardeau non transmissibles. Il n'est donc pas évident savoir si dans villes africaines adultes pauvres en bonne santé leurs homologues aisés. cet article, nous décrivons inégalités sociales qui caractérisent la mortalité des (personnes 15 à 59 ans) périphérie Ouagadougou, capitale du Burkina Faso. En utilisant...
Introduction The global obesity epidemic and its adverse health effects have reached sub-Saharan Africa. In some urban settings, like Burkina Faso’s capital Ouagadougou, up to 43% of the adult population are overweight or obese. At same time, modernised food systems responsible for 26% greenhouse gas emissions, 50% land use 70% freshwater use. International guidelines on treatment recommend dietary intervention programmes that promote reduced calorie intake increased physical activity. So...

Design A quasi-experimental evaluation based on cross-sectional post-intervention assessment comparing intervention district comparison group. Setting participants The study included 331 direct observations exit interviews pregnant women seeking care (ANC) across 48 Faso...
En Afrique sub-saharienne, les auteurs cherchant à expliquer la surmortalité des enfants quartiers informels ont rarement essayé de dissocier caractéristiques sociodémographiques parents, d'une part, et effets contexte, d'autre en utilisant une définition « locale » ces quartiers. Le différentiel mortalité entre formels capitale du Burkina Faso est analysé ici l'aide données l'Observatoire Population Ouagadougou. Les analyses reposent sur le calcul taux mortalité, modèle régression Cox....
Contexte : Parmi les facteurs de la fécondité élevée en Afrique Sub-saharienne, on met souvent avant inégalités genre. Cependant, recherches se contentent mesurer selon caractéristiques femme sans son conjoint. Il s'agit donc confronter le statut des deux conjoints dans couples.Données et méthodes Ce travail utilise données l'Observatoire Population Ouagadougou mesure genre à l'aide du test Log-rank modèle d'Andersen Gill.Résultats Les résultats ne montrent aucune différence significative...
