Climate-influenced vector-borne diseases in Africa: a call to empower the next generation of African researchers for sustainable solutions.

We look at the link between climate change and vector-borne diseases in low- and middle-income countries in Africa. The large endemicity and escalating threat of diseases such as malaria and arboviral diseases, intensified by climate change, disproportionately affects vulnerable communities globally. We highlight the urgency of prioritizing research and development, advocating for robust scientific inquiry to promote adaptation strategies, and the vital role that the next generation of African research leaders will play in addressing these challenges.

Where is the 'C' in antenatal care and postnatal care: A multi-country survey of availability of antenatal and postnatal care in low- and middle-income settings.

Objective: Antenatal (ANC) and postnatal care (PNC) are logical entry points for prevention and treatment of pregnancy-related illness and to reduce perinatal mortality. We developed signal functions and assessed availability of the essential components of care.

Design: Cross-sectional survey.

Anatomical variants of the celiac trunk.

Aim Of The Study: Determine the anatomical variants of the celiac trunk and describe it in its modal form using a scanner.

Patients: In total, 200 patients were included in this study.

Material And Methods: The study was carried out using a multi-detector scanner (SIEMENS Somatom Emotion Excel Edition, 16 bars).

Initial Plant Vigor and Short Rotation Coppices Improve Vegetable Production in Sweet (Lamiaceae).

is a major but threatened economic plant collected as a leafy vegetable and fruit in West Africa. How the species withstands coppicing as an agricultural management practice was investigated in this research. Three seedling vigor classes (10-25 mm, 25-30 mm, 30-40 mm) and two coppicing heights (20 and 40 cm) were compared to controls in eight replicates using a randomized complete block design.

Multiple variations of collateral branches of the abdominal aorta associated with pyelic duplication: A case report.

Purpose: We describe a rare case of anatomical variation of the collaterals of the abdominal aorta associated with a duplication of the pyelic.

Material And Method: A 51-year-old patient in whom an abdominal CT scan was performed as part of the exploration of a cystic left renal mass objectified on ultrasound.

Results: A celiomesenteric trunk with two left renal arteries and a duplication of the left pyelon were found.
