- Successful treatment involved direct suture repair and careful postoperative monitoring, leading to a speedy recovery and the ability to resume oral feeding after two weeks.

Article Synopsis
- Climate change directly impacts human health through extreme weather events and the spread of diseases, while indirectly affecting air quality, water access, and food security.

- The study highlights various strategies and measures taken by universities to address these issues and provides recommendations for improving responses to climate change and health in higher education.
Having a geolocated list of all facilities in a country - a "master facility list" (MFL) - can provide critical inputs for health program planning and implementation. To the best of our knowledge, Senegal has never had a centralized MFL, though many data sources currently exist within the broader Senegalese data landscape that could be leveraged and consolidated into a single database - a critical first step toward building a full MFL. We collated 12,965 facility observations from 16 separate datasets and lists in Senegal, and applied matching algorithms, manual checking and revisions as needed, and verification processes to identify unique facilities and triangulate corresponding GPS coordinates.
