On March 23, 2014, the Guinean Ministry of Health, in line with International Health Regulations 2005, notified WHO and world an outbreak Ebola virus disease (EVD). This followed laboratory confirmation by Pasteur Institute Dakar, Senegal (a collaborating centre), a 16-year-old girl from Guéckédou, small village southern Guinea.1Ohimain EI Silas-Olu D The 2013–2016 West Africa.Curr Opin Pharmacol. 2021; 60: 360-365Crossref Scopus (11) Google Scholar was 10 years ago. For first time, EVD had...
The idea that all modern humans share a recent (within the last 150, 000 years) African origin has been proposed and supported on basis of three observations. Most genetic loci examined to date have (1) shown greater diversity in populations than others, (2) placed first branch between non-African phylogenetic trees, (3) indicated dates for either molecular coalescence (with exception some autosomal X-chromosomal loci) or time separation populations. We analyze variation at 10 Y chromosome...
Background Schistosomiasis is a water-based disease that believed to affect over 200 million people with an estimated 97% of the infections concentrated in Africa. However, these statistics are largely based on population re-adjusted data originally published by Utroska and colleagues more than 20 years ago. Hence, estimates outdated due large-scale preventive chemotherapy programs, improved sanitation, water resources development management, among other reasons. For planning, coordination,...
We investigated changes in the spatial distribution of schistosomiasis Mali following a decade donor-funded control and further 12 years without control.National pre-intervention cross-sectional surveys were conducted 1984-1989 (in communities) again 2004-2006 schools). Bayesian geostatistical models built separately for each time period on datasets combined across periods. In former, data from one used to predict prevalence schistosome infections other period, latter, determine whether...
To investigate the frequency of catastrophic expenditures for emergency obstetric care, explore its risk factors, and assess effect these on households in Kayes region, Mali.Data 484 emergencies (242 deaths 242 near-misses) were collected 2008-2011. Catastrophic expenditure care was assessed at different thresholds associated factors explored through logistic regression. A survey subsequently administered a nested sample 56 to determine how had affected them.Despite fee exemption policy...
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is the leading cause of maternal mortality in Sub-Saharan-Africa (SSA). Although clinical guidelines treating PPH are available, their implementation remains a great challenge resource poor settings. A better understanding factors associated with critical for preventing risk hospital-based death. The purpose this study was thus to assess which contribute death occurring during PPH. were as follows: women's characteristics, aspects pregnancy and delivery;...

In the developing world co-infections and polyparasitism within humans appear to be rule rather than exception, it any combination of inter-specific and/or inter- intra-Genera mixed infections. Mixed infections might generate synergistic or antagonistic interactions thereby clinically affect individuals impact parasite epidemiology.The current study uniquely assesses both Schistosoma mansoni- haematobium-related morbidity liver bladder as assessed by ultrasound well spleen through clinical...
We present the comparative evaluation of school‐based chemotherapy with praziquantel on Schistosoma haematobium reinfection patterns, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months after systematic treatment schoolchildren in four villages south‐central Côte d’Ivoire. At baseline, very high S. infection prevalences 88–94% were found Taabo Village, located adjacent to a large man‐made lake, Batera Bodo, where small dams constructed. In Assinzé, village no environmental alterations, baseline prevalence was...
Background Preventive chemotherapy against schistosomiasis has been implemented since 2005 in Mali, targeting school-age children and adults at high risk. A cross-sectional survey was conducted 2010 to evaluate the impact of repeated treatment among highly-endemic region Segou. Methodology/Principal Findings The six sentinel schools three districts, 640 school aged 7–14 years were examined. Infections with Schistosoma haematobium S. mansoni diagnosed urine filtration Kato-Katz method...
Objective In the context of rapid changes regarding practices related to delivery in Africa, we assessed maternal and perinatal adverse outcomes associated with mode 41 referral hospitals Mali Senegal. Study Design Cross-sectional survey nested a randomised cluster trial (1/10/2007–1/10/2008). The associations between intended (i) in-hospital mortality, (ii) morbidity (transfusion or hysterectomy), (iii) stillbirth neonatal death before Day 1 (iv) 24 hours after birth hospital discharge were...
BackgroundInterventions to reduce child deaths in Africa have often underachieved, causing the Millennium Development Goal targets be missed. We assessed whether a community enquiry into circumstances of death could improve intervention effectiveness by identifying local avoidable factors and explaining implementation failures.MethodsDeaths children younger than 5 years were ascertained informants two districts Mali (762 deaths) three Uganda (442 2011–15. Deaths investigated interviewing...
