Fermented milk products (FMP) have been consumed by humans for millennia and the health benefits are no longer to be demonstrated. Although the manufacturing procedure have been industrialized, FMPs are still produced traditionally in many parts of the world with variable manufacturing procedures and unknown sanitary conditions. In this study, we aimed at comparing the physico-chemical properties of industrial and traditional FMPs from France and Mali as well as their microbial diversity.

Article Synopsis
- Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major global health concern linked to liver disease and cancer, with research focusing on genetic factors that affect its evolution.
- Recent studies highlighted the ECM1 gene, specifically two polymorphisms (rs3834087 and rs3754217), which may influence HBV pathogenesis, particularly in an African cohort analyzed in this research.
- The study found that the heterozygous genotype of rs3754217 appears to protect against chronic hepatitis, suggesting that certain genetic variations may impact the severity of the disease in infected individuals.
Gigantomastia is a rare benign mastopathy of unknown aetiology. It usually occurs in women during puberty or during pregnancy. It is characterized by excessive breast growth, which is psychologically and physically disabling.

- * This anatomical variation is significant due to its low occurrence and the need for surgeons to be aware of it during procedures involving the axillary region.
- * Lack of knowledge about the dorsalis major muscle arch can lead to complications during surgeries like axillary curage or breast reconstruction using a dorsalis major flap.
