Reproductive Medicine is first seen in the light of Michel Foucault's work, The Birth of the Clinic. Archaeology of the Medical Perception. Then, the different levels of the procreative meeting are described: emotional, sexual and cultural meetings. These levels may be in conflicting situation in infertility. This is illustrated by some clinical observations of infertility. The endogamic society such as described by Germaine Tillion in The Republic of Cousins has been faced with recessive autosomic diseases that may cause a decrease of fertility for some individuals and for the ethnic group. One particular observation provides an illustration thereof.

School of Life and Medical Sciences, University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield, United Kingdom.
Introduction: When implemented by national and regional regulatory agencies good review practices (GRevPs) support the timely high-quality review of medicines for enhanced patients' availability to safe, quality and efficacious innovative and generic products. It is important that all aspects of GRevPs are continuously evaluated and updated to promote the continuous improvement of regulatory systems at national and regional levels. The aim of this study was to assess and compare the GRevPs of the national medicines regulatory agencies (NMRAs) of Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone and Togo, who are active participants of the ECOWASMRH initiative to identify opportunities for improvement.

Introduction: The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) has highlighted the need for efficient diagnostic methods to assess the state of health (SoH) of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) at the end of their life cycle. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) offers a non-invasive technique for determining battery degradation. However, automating this process in industrial settings remains a challenge.
