We present a 56 years-old male patient with an acute ischemic episode. The patient showed significant dilation of the left main coronary artery and proximal segments of the left descending artery, as well as a right coronary artery with a 10mm diameter in the proximal and medial segments. These findings are compatible with a Kawasaki's disease in a chronic phase.

Bureau de L'Organisation Mondiale de La Santé (OMS), Niamey, Niger.
Background: Recently, a total of 74 circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus (cVDPV) outbreaks were detected in 39 countries, with 672 confirmed Acute Flaccid Paralysis (AFP) cases identified in 27 countries. Despite progress, Niger experienced cVDPV outbreaks in 2018, highlighting the importance of maintaining AFP surveillance as a tool for polio eradication. This analysis aims to comprehensively assess AFP surveillance trends, patterns, and challenges in Niger, offering insights for public health initiatives in conflict-affected contexts.

Data chosen from the 2018 China health and retirement longitudinal study (CHARLS) were selected, with 8369 elderly people aged ≥ 60 years old, and propensity scores were matched using nearest-neighbor matching, kernel matching, and radius matching, and then heterogeneity was used to analyze the mean effect values among different populations. The results of propensity score matching PSM showed that participation in mutual care had a significant positive effect on the mental health of the rural elderly, with a net effect of 0.
