RESUMO
Endoscopic surgery of ectopic pregnancy is actually the gold standard for the management of fallopian tubal diseases. A survey was conducted to evaluate fertility in patients who underwent endoscopic management for ectopic pregnancy. A retrospective study was conducted at the department of general and endoscopic surgery of the Point "G" teaching hospital, in Bamako, Mali, from January 1st 2007 to December 31, 2016. Forty-eight (48) patients who underwent endoscopic management of tubal ectopic pregnancy and who have been followed up for fertility were included in this study. Statistical tests used were X2 or Fisher test and their confident interval, p <1 % has been considered as statistically significant. The therapeutic score of Pouly was less than 4 in 25.0% (n = 12). The return to fertility was observed among 48.0% of patients (n = 23). The chance of conception was less than 80.0% after the fourth postoperative year (p=0.001). The outcome of pregnancies has been seventeen full-term pregnancies, three ectopic pregnancies and three miscarriages. The occurrence of pregnancy after endoscopic management indicated for ectopic pregnancy is possible. However, many factors can influence the future conception.

Manure remaining in storage due to incomplete removal is a source of microbial inoculum that may affect methane (CH), nitrous oxide (NO), and ammonia (NH) emissions during subsequent storage. Manure removal was studied by loading fresh manure into outdoor concrete tanks (10.6 m) that contained previously stored manure (inoculum) at six levels (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25%, with 0% representing an empty tank). Emissions were continuously measured for 6-mo storage periods (warm and cold seasons) using flow-through chambers. Fluxes during the warm season (average manure temperature at 80 cm depth, = 17°C) were 25 times higher for CH, 20 times higher for NO, and 2.9 times higher for NH compared with the cold season ( = 4°C). Cumulative CH emissions increased linearly with the level of added inoculum in the cold season ( = 0.98). A similar linear increase was observed in the warm season from 0 to 20% inoculum ( = 0.91), after which a decrease in emissions was observed at 25%. Reducing inoculum from 15 to 5% reduced CH emissions by 26% in the warm season and 45% in the cold season. There was no clear effect of inoculum on NO and NH emissions, suggesting that complete manure storage emptying does not alter their emissions.

Background: Epilepsy is a significant public health concern with psychosocial impacts, including fear, stigma, and misconceptions. These factors contribute to human rights violations and discrimination. The objective of this study was to describe the sociocultural representation of epilepsy in Mali. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out from April 2015 to November 2016 at the University Hospital of Point G. Patients with epilepsy were identified prospectively, and a questionnaire was administered to each patient and their parents. Results: A total of 104 patients were enrolled with an average age of 35 years, ranging from 15 to 89 years. Males were slightly predominant, accounting for 53.85%, resulting in a sex ratio (M/F) of 1.17. In terms of occupation, workers comprised 68.27% of participants. Patients residing in urban areas represented 61.54%, and the most level of education was secondary (40.38%). The majority of patients (57.69%) and their relatives (69.23%) thought that epilepsy was caused by mystical causes. Stigma was reported by 66.35% of our patients. Conclusion: The sociocultural perception of epilepsy hinders evidence-based diagnosis and management in Africa. This study suggests a need to focus on raising awareness to change these misconceptions.
RESUMO
Toxoplasmosis is defined as a cosmopolitan protozoan disease caused by an obligate intracellular coccidia, Toxoplasma gondii. The advent of HIV infection has made cerebral toxoplasmosis one of the most widespread neurological opportunistic infections. METHOD: We conducted a descriptive cross-sectional study with retrospective review of files of cerebral toxoplasmosis on HIV infected patients who had been hospitalized in the infectious diseases department of Point G University Hospital between January 1st, 2014 and September 30th, 2019. RESULTS: During the study period, the frequency of cerebral toxoplasmosis was 10.1% and in 46.4% of the patients, the diagnosis led to the discovery of HIV co-infection. The clinical features were characterized by fever, headaches, and motor deficit at 86.6%, 84.5% and 69.1% respectively. Roundel image on computed tomography was most represented and was found in 24.4% of patients. Anti-toxoplasma treatment based on trimethoprim /sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX) associated with folinic acid was initiated in 78 patients out of 90, but 19 patients had a contraindication or adverse effects to this combination and were treated with clindamycin. HAART was initiated in 31 patients out of 45 (68.9%) newly diagnosed. The overall prognosis was limited with a mortality rate of 42%. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of cerebral toxoplasmosis was high in our study, 10.1%. To reduce this prevalence, chemoprophylaxis should be initiated in all HIV-infected patients with a CD4 count below 200 cells/mm3.
INTRODUCTION: La toxoplasmose est une protozoose cosmopolite due à Toxoplasmagondii. Avec l'avènement du VIH, la toxoplasmose cérébrale est une des infections opportunistes neurologiques les plus répandues. MÉTHODE: Nous avons mené une étude transversaledescriptive à collecte rétrospective portant sur des cas de toxoplasmoses cérébrales sur terrain d'immunodépression aux VIH ayant séjourné en hospitalisation dans le service des maladies infectieuses du CHU de Point G du 1er janvier 2014 au 30 septembre 2019. RÉSULTATS: La prévalence de la toxoplasmose cérébrale était de 10,1%. Chez 46,4% des patients, le diagnostic de toxoplasmose cérébrale avait permis la découverte d'une coïnfection à VIH. Le tableau clinique était dominé par la fièvre, les céphalées et le déficit moteur soit respectivement 86,6%, 84,5% et 69,1%. L'image en cocarde à la tomodensitométrie a été retrouvée chez 24,4% des patients. Le traitement anti-toxoplasmique à base de triméthoprime/sulfaméthoxazole (TMP/ SMX) associée à l'acide folinique a été conduit chez 78 patients sur 90. Dix-neuf patients avaient une contre-indication ou des effets indésirables à l'association TMP/ SMX et ont été traités par la clindamycine. Le traitement ARV a été initié chez trente-un patients sur 45 nouvellement dépistés soit 68,9%. Le pronostic chez nos patients était réservé et marqué par une mortalité de 42%. CONCLUSION: La prévalence de la toxoplasmose cérébrale était élevée dans notre étude soit 10,1%. Pour diminuer cette prévalence, la chimio-prophylaxie doit être instaurée chez tous les patients infectés par le VIH et ayant un taux de CD4 inférieur à 200 cellules/mm3.
RESUMO
OBJECTIF: the purpose of this work was to study the infections associated with the care in the department of gynecology - obstetrics of the University Hospital Center Gabriel Touré (CHU G. Touré). PATIENTS AND METHODS: This was an epidemiological, descriptive, and analytical study carried out in the gynecology-obstetrics department of G. Touré University Hospital, from April 11, 2016 to August 29, 2016 (4 monthset 18 days), with a prospective collection of data that focused on the characteristics clinical and laboratory-based care-associated infections in patients during their hospitalization. Included in the study were all hospitalized patients (operated or not) in the gynecology obstetrics department, who agreed to participate in the study. The criteria used to diagnose the infection associated with care were those of the CDC Atlanta and making a thick drop in our context. Operative wound monitoring was performed until the 30th postoperative day. RESULTS: We recorded 200 patients, including 138 operated and 62 nonoperated patients, of which 30 patients developed a care-associated infection at a rate of 15%. The mean age of the patients who presented an infection was 32.52 years ± 13.36 years against 29.36 years ± 10.28 years for the patients who did not present the infection. Seven point five percent of the evacuees had an infection associated with care. The most common types of infections were surgical site infection with 56.60% followed by malaria with 23.30% and urinary tract infection with 20.00%. Escherichia coli and Acinetobacter baumaniiwere the most recovered germs. Isolated organisms were 100% resistant to Amoxicillin, 88.88% were resistant to Ciprofloxacin and 77.77% were resistant to Amoxicillin + Clavulanic acid. The average duration of hospitalization for patients who developed the infection was 14.70 days with extremes of 5 and 46 days. The mortality rate was 1.50%. The average cost of management of patients who developed the infection was 119837 FCFA; the extremes were 17750 and 825750 FCFA and the standard deviation of 174998 CFA francs. CONCLUSION: the infections associated with the care remain frequent in our service and dominated by the infections of the operating site. The isolated organisms were all 100% resistant to Amoxicillin in 88.88% Ciprofloxacin.
LE BUT: de ce travail était d'étudier les infections associées aux soins dans le département de gynécologie obstétrique du Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Gabriel Touré (CHU G. Touré). PATIENTES ET MÉTHODES: Il s'agissait d'une étude épidémiologique, descriptive, analytique réalisée dans le département de gynécologie obstétrique du CHU G. Touré, allant du 11 Avril 2016 au 29 Août 2016 (4 mois et 18 jours) à collecte prospective des données qui a porté sur les caractéristiques cliniques et biologiques des infections associées aux soins chez les patientes au cours de leur hospitalisation. Etaient incluses dans l'étude toutes les patientes hospitalisées (opérées ou non) dans le service de gynécologie obstétrique, et qui ont accepté de participer à l'étude.Les critères utilisés pour le diagnostic de l'infection associée aux soins étaient ceux du CDC d'Atlanta et la réalisation d'une goutte épaisse dans notre contexte.

RÉSULTATS: Nous avons enregistrés 200 patientes dont 138 opérées et 62 non opérées parmi lesquelles 30 patientes ont développé une infection associée aux soins soit un taux de 15%. L'âge moyen des patientes ayant présenté une infection a été 32,52 ans ±13,36 ans contre 29.36 ans ±10,28 ans pour les patientes n'ayant pas présenté l'infection. Sept virgule cinq pourcent des patientes évacuées ont présenté une infection associée aux soins. Les types d'infections les plus retrouvés étaient l'infection du site opératoire avec 56,60% suivie du paludisme avec 23,30% et l'infection urinaire avec 20,00%. L'Escherichia coli et l'Acinetobacterbaumanii ont été les germes les plus retrouvés. Les germes isolés étaient dans 100% des cas résistants à l'Amoxicilline, dans 88,88% des cas résistants à la Ciprofloxacine et dans 77.77% des cas résistants à l'Amoxicilline +Acide clavulanique. La durée moyenne d'hospitalisation des patientes ayant développé l'infection a été 14,70 jours avec des extrêmes de 5 et 46 jours.Le taux de mortalité a été de 1,50%. Le coût moyen de prise en charge des patientes ayant développé l'infection a été 119837 FCFA ; les extrêmes ont été 17750 et 825750 FCFA et l'écart type de 174998 francs CFA. CONCLUSION: les infections associées aux soins restent fréquentes dans notre service et dominées par les infections du site opératoire.

INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to determine the factors influencing quality of life for patients with post-stroke aphasia followed in Cotonou hospitals. METHOD: A prospective descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in CNHU-HKM (Cotonou, Benin) from October to December 2012; focusing on patients with at least six months of post-stroke aphasia. For each patient, a SIP-65 questionnaire was administered. The Epi Info 3.5 software was used for data analysis. A multivariate analysis was performed to determine factors associated with quality of life for patients with aphasia. RESULTS: In total, 41 patients were included in this study with a sex ratio of 1.3. The average age was 55.3 ± 2.5 years. The average duration of the aphasia was 10 months. Broca's aphasia was predominant (68.3%). 60.8% of aphasia patients were able to preserve their quality of life. Multivariate analysis showed that age, family support, the type of stroke and aphasia and speech therapy were associated with quality of life. CONCLUSION: The treatment of post-stroke aphasia must incorporate these factors associated with quality of life for a better recovery of patients.

Pour chaque patient, un questionnaire SIP-65 a été administré. Le logiciel Epi info 3.5 a servi de base à l'analyse des données. Une analyse multivariée a été effectuée pour déterminer les facteurs associés à la qualité de vie des aphasiques. RÉSULTATS: Au total, 41 patients ont été inclus dans l'étude avec une sex-ratio de 1,3. L'âge moyen était de 55,3 ± 2,5 ans. La durée moyenne d'évolution de l'aphasie était 10 mois. L'aphasie de Broca était prédominante (68,3%). 60,8% des aphasiques avaient une qualité de vie préservée. L'analyse multivariée a montré que l'âge, le soutien de la famille, le type d'AVC et d'aphasie et le traitement orthophonique étaient associés à la qualité de vie. CONCLUSION: La prise en charge des aphasiques post-AVC doit intégrer ces facteurs associés à la qualité de vie pour une meilleure récupération des patients.
RESUMO
Cerebral miliary tuberculosis is a rare and serious disease due to the hematogenic spread of bacillus tuberculous. It occurs more often in a debility context. Stereotaxic biopsy allows to establish the final diagnosis. But, in most of the cases it is presumptive based on clinical and biological features, and the regression of symptoms under anti tuberculosis treatment, of which depends the vital prognosis. We report the case of an immunocompetent patient, smoker who presented with cerebral military.
La miliaire tuberculeuse cérébrale est une affection rare et grave due à la dissémination hématogène des bacilles tuberculeux. Elle survient le plus souvent sur un terrain de débilité. La biopsie stéréotaxique permet d'établir le diagnostic définitif. Mais dans la plus part des cas il est présomptif basé sur d'éléments d'orientation clinique et biologique et la régression des signes sous traitement anti tuberculeux, dont dépend le pronostic vital. Nous rapportons le cas d'un patient immunocompétent, tabagique ayant présenté une miliaire cérébrale.
RESUMO
AIM: Pregnant women HIV infection has main risk the contamination of newborn. MTCT actions permit to reduce that risk. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Our survey has been realized in Gabriel Touré teaching hospital gynecology and obstetrics and pediatric departments. It is about an observational prospective and descriptive survey that spreads on a period from January 2005 to December 2008. Has been included in the study all the HIV positive pregnant women followed in our service and their babies that had received ARV prophylaxis and 18 months of life serology. RESULTS: We recorded 211 HIV positive pregnant women on a total of 9291 childbirths (2.27%). We noted 90.52% of HIV-1 vs 7.11% of type 2. The mother treatment consisted in a tri therapy in 77.25 vs 0.47% of bi anti retroviral and 22.28% of mono anti retro viral therapy. Maternal viral load was undetectable at the moment of delivery in 78.20% of cases. We noted vaginal delivery in 84.36% vs 15.64% of caesarean section. Newborns respectively received 67.32%; 4.88% and 22.92% of bi, tri and mono therapy. They formula-fed in 98.98%. The mother to child HIV transmission rate was 1.98%. CONCLUSION: HIV prevalence in pregnant patients is relatively height. HARRT in HIV positive mothers associated to bi therapy and formula feeding to their infants permit to obtain low vertical HIV transmission rate.

AIM: The sexual aggressions pose an important medico - legal problem. The implication of several services is often indispensable to determine the future of this aggression. Our survey objectives were to determine epidemiological and clinical characteristics of sexual aggressions and to specify the judicial continuations. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We did historical cohort survey while recruiting all cases of consultation in the service for sexual aggressions. This survey spreads on a period of 60 months going from January 2004 to December 2008. A systematic health evaluation (HIV test, vaginal screeming, lever inflammatory deseases) is asked to every sexual abuse patients.Data have been recorded from patients' clinical files, cards of requisition and accounts returned of verbal suit of auditions and police custodies. khi 2 test has been used to appreciate relationship between variables, significativity doorstep P value < 5%. RESULTS: The sexual aggression frequency in relation to admissions to emergencies is 3.12%. The age group <15 years were the more represented with 59.18%. The police authority referred the patients with a requisition in 65.17% of cases (p<0,005). Presumed aggressor was known by the patient in 63.67% of cases (p<5%) and in 72.28% of cases the aggression has been made by night (p=0,001) It was about one aggressor in 65.54% of cases; they were 2 and 3 numbers in 17.23%. (p=0,002). We noted a sexual penetration notion in 80.52% of cases against 19.48% of sexual attouchements. The threat has been noted in any case: 40.82% by weapon and 30.71% by stroke of point. More of the half of the patients (60.30%) had had sexual intercourse before the aggression. The clinic exam was normal in 76.40% of cases (P<5%). The main types of lesions were: hymeneal injuries (13.48%), vulva injuries (7.87%). The judicial continuations have been marked by 10.48% of condemnations, 46.06% of acquittal and 40.06% of friendly regulation (P<5%). CONCLUSION: The number of sexual aggressions, although under valued, is raised in our country. The collaboration between the judicial, police and medical services should permit to reduce the frequency of these aggressions.

AIM: The objectives of our survey were to determine the frequency of trauma associated to pregnancy in our service, to describe types of lesions and the maternal and fetal complications. MATERIAL AND METHODS: It is about a descriptive retrospective survey that spreads on a period of 63 months going from March 2002 to Jun 2007. We recorded all cases of trauma associated to pregnancy whatever the term of pregnancy. The parameters studied have been: admission mode, circumstances of intervening, gravida, parity, pregnancy age, delivery route and materno-fetal prognosis. We have used χ² test to appreciate relationship between variables studied, the significant doorstep has been P value < 5%. RESULTS: During the period of the survey we recorded 152 cases of trauma associated to pregnancy and 8016 emergency consultations is a frequency of 1.90%. In 3 cases on 4 (115 cases, 75.66%), the age of pregnancy was at least equal to 12 weeks. We noted 13.16% of unevolutive pregnancy; 13.83% of case of abortion and 15.13% of childbirth witch 5 by cesarean section. The main lesions more associated were: bruises (41.28%), the fractures of the pelvic (25.64%), the rachis fractures (10.26%) and the cranial trauma (12.82%), 6.58% (10 cases) of patients are died. CONCLUSION: Trauma in pregnant women often generate polymorphic lesions. Their complications can be serious dragging sometimes maternal and or fetal death. Their management is always multidisciplinary.
