A guide to protocol development for low-income countries
Cinquième Enquête Démographique et de Santé au Bénin (EDSB-V) 2017-2018
Il n’est de richesse que d’hommes dit-on. En vertu de ce principe, le Gouvernement de
la République du Bénin, désireux de connaître et d’apprécier l’importance et la qualité de ses
ressources humaines a décidé, par décret n° 99-459 du 22 septembre 1999, d’organiser sur
toute l...’étendue du territoire national, un Recensement Général de la Population et de
l’Habitation. Cette importante opération est la troisième du genre depuis notre indépendance
nationale.

Il est troublant de se voir changer. Cela soulève toutes sortes d’interrogations simples ou complexes, audacieuses, parfois angoissantes, toujours importantes. Des questions qui touchent à l’identité, au corps, à la relation à l’autre, à la sexualité et à l’...amour. L’adolescence est une période de recherche, de découvertes, d’essais et de remises en question. Cette brochure propose des pistes de réponses et des éléments de réflexion pour combattre les idées reçues, les préjugés et les fausses croyances souvent sources de souffrances pour soi-même et pour les autres.

High levels of storage iron may increase malaria susceptibility. This risk has not been investigated in semi-immune adolescents. We investigated whether baseline iron status of nonpregnant adolescent girls living in a high malaria transmission area in Burkina Faso affected malaria risk during the fo...llowing rainy season. For this prospective study, we analysed data from an interim safety survey, conducted six months into a randomised iron supplementation trial. We used logistic regression to model the risk of P. falciparum infection prevalence by microscopy, the pre-specified interim safety outcome, in relation to iron status, nutritional indicators and menarche assessed at recruitment.

Environmental exposure to active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) can have negative effects on the health of ecosystems and humans. While numerous studies have monitored APIs in rivers, these employ different analytical methods, m...easure different APIs, and have ignored many of the countries of the world. This makes it difficult to quantify the scale of the problem from a global perspective. Furthermore, comparison of the existing data, generated for different studies/regions/continents, is challenging due to the vast differences between the analytical methodologies employed. Here, we present a global-scale study of API pollution in 258 of the world’s rivers, representing the environmental influence of 471.4 million people across 137 geographic regions. Samples were obtained from 1,052 locations in 104 countries (representing all continents and 36 countries not previously studied for API contamination) and analyzed for 61 APIs. Highest cumulative API concentrations were observed in sub-Saharan Africa, south Asia, and South America. The most contaminated sites were in low- to middle-income countries and were associated with areas with poor wastewater and waste management infrastructure and pharmaceutical manufacturing. The most frequently detected APIs were carbamazepine, metformin, and caffeine (a compound also arising from lifestyle use), which were detected at over half of the sites monitored. Concentrations of at least one API at 25.7% of the sampling sites were greater than concentrations considered safe for aquatic organisms, or which are of concern in terms of selection for antimicrobial resistance. Therefore, pharmaceutical pollution poses a global threat to environmental and human health, as well as to delivery of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
