    Introduction : Les troubles fonctionnels digestifs (TFI) ou syndrome de l’intestin irritable reprĂ©sentent un vĂ©ritable problème de santĂ© publique. Si cette affection n’engage pas le pronostic vital, elle altère significativement et de façon chronique la qualitĂ© de vie des malades. L’étiologie est mal connue et de nombreux facteurs sont impliquĂ©s. MĂ©thodes : Il s’agissait d’une Ă©tude transversale descriptive Ă  recueil prospectif de donnĂ©es rĂ©alisĂ©e en consultation externe du service d’hĂ©pato-gastroentĂ©rologie de l’hĂ´pital national Donka du CHU de Conakry allant du 1er Janvier 2019 au 31 DĂ©cembre 2020 chez les patients souffrants de TFI et rĂ©pondant aux critères de Rome IV. RĂ©sultats : Trois cent quatre-vingt-dix-huit cas de SII sur 1309 patients soit une prĂ©valence de 30,40%. On notait une prĂ©dominance fĂ©minine avec un sex ratio de 0,92. L’âge moyen de nos patients Ă©tait de 49 ans avec des extrĂŞmes de 10 et 88 ans. Les tranches d’âge de 25-34 ans et 35-44 ans Ă©taient les plus reprĂ©sentĂ©es avec des frĂ©quences respectives de 24,52% et 22,07%. Les principaux signes cliniques Ă©taient des douleurs abdominales (92,28%), de la constipation dans 84,41%, ballonnement abdominal 28,39% et diverses manifestations extradigestives : insomnie dans 32,08%, de cĂ©phalĂ©es dans 30,55% des cas, de la fibromyalgie 22,91%. Les principaux facteurs dĂ©clenchants Ă©taient : les facteurs psychologiques 32,08% et alimentaires (tubercules 14,13%, haricot 6,11%, le diner tardif et ou copieux 4,2% et les boissons gazeuses 3,44%). Le retentissement socioprofessionnel des TFI Ă©tait dominĂ© par l’absentĂ©isme dans 82,78% des cas, le retard au travail dans 20%. Les comorbiditĂ©s digestives les plus frĂ©quentes Ă©taient : le RGO, la dyspepsie, le dolichocĂ´lon ainsi que leur association. Conclusion  Le SII est un problème de santĂ© publique qui altère la qualitĂ© de vie des personnes atteintes. Les douleurs abdominales, la constipation et le ballonnement abdominal en constituent la triade symptomatique. Le stress est un facteur dĂ©clenchant de la symptomatologie. L’association du SII avec des comorbiditĂ©s digestives et extra-digestives est frĂ©quente. Introduction : Functional digestive disorders (TFI) or irritable bowel syndrome represent a real public health problem. Although this condition is not life-threatening, it significantly and chronically alters the quality of life of patients. The etiology is poorly understood and many factors are involved. Methods : This was a descriptive cross-sectional study with prospective data collection carried out in outpatient consultation of the hepato-gastroenterology department of the Donka national hospital of the Conakry University Hospital from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2020 in patients suffering from TFI and meeting the Rome IV criteria. Results: Three hundred and ninety-eight cases of IBS out of 1309 patients, representing a prevalence of 30.40%. There was a female predominance with a sex ratio of 0.92. The average age of our patients was 49 years with extremes of 10 and 88 years. The age groups of 25-34 and 35-44 were the most represented with respective frequencies of 24.52% and 22.07%. The main clinical signs were abdominal pain (92.28%), constipation in 84.41%, abdominal bloating in 28.39% and various extradigestive manifestations: insomnia in 32.08%, headache in 30.55% of cases. cases, fibromyalgia 22.91%. The main triggering factors were: psychological factors 32.08% and dietary factors (tubers 14.13%, beans 6.11%, late or heavy dinner 4.2% and soft drinks 3.44%). The socio-professional impact of TFIs was dominated by absenteeism in 82.78% of cases, lateness for work in 20%. The most common digestive comorbidities were: GERD, dyspepsia, dolichocolon and their combination. Conclusion IBS is a public health problem that impairs the quality of life of those affected. Abdominal pain, constipation and abdominal bloating constitute the symptomatic triad. Stress is a triggering factor for the symptoms. The association of IBS with digestive and extra-digestive comorbidities is common

    In September 2003, JSI/DELIVER conducted an assessment of the logistics system capacity and individual site readiness to provide PMTCT services and to initiate ART at selected public sector health facilities in Tanzania. The purpose of the assessment was to support government expansion of PMTCT from five pilot sites to 28 health facilities in five regions by addressing the logistics system constraints to ensuring a reliable and uninterrupted supply of the broad range of commodities required for PMTCT and ART, and by conducting an evaluation of the overall readiness of each site to provide these services. Several private providers, nongovernmental and faith-based organizations, and employer-based programs were included in the assessment to learn about PMTCT and ART in these sectors and to identify opportunities for public/private sector collaboration in expanding service delivery and ensuring effective commodity distribution. In addition, interviews with pharmaceutical company representatives and visits to retail pharmacies provided an overview of current commercial sector distribution of ARV drugs in Tanzania. The main findings showed an urgent need to build logistics management capacity within the central level MOH to—Coordinate multiple sources of rapidly increasing funding for commodity procurement. Strengthen commodity-forecasting capacity. Align procurement cycles and supplier lead times with the in-country supply pipeline and demand for services. At the facility level, assessment findings showed that individual site readiness is heavily constrained by the availability and quality of human resources; laboratory infrastructure and capacity; and lack of an established inventory control system and standardized pharmacy management procedures

    Changes in the Transmission Dynamic of Chikungunya Virus in Southeastern Senegal.

    In Senegal, chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is maintained in a sylvatic cycle and causes sporadic cases or small outbreaks in rural areas. However, little is known about the influence of the environment on its transmission. To address the question, 120 villages were randomly selected in the Kedougou region of southeastern Senegal. In each selected village, 10 persons by randomly selected household were sampled and tested for specific anti-CHIKV IgG antibodies by ELISA. We investigated the association of CHIKV seroprevalence with environmental variables using logistic regression analysis and the spatial correlation of village seroprevalence based on semivariogram analysis. Fifty-four percent (51%-57%) of individuals sampled during the survey tested positive for CHIKV-specific IgG. CHIKV seroprevalence was significantly higher in populations living close to forested areas (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Odds Ratio (OR) = 1.90 (1.42-2.57)), and was negatively associated with population density (OR = 0.76 (0.69-0.84)). In contrast, in gold mining sites where population density was >400 people per km2, seroprevalence peaked significantly among adults (46% (27%-67%)) compared to all other individuals (20% (12%-31%)). However, traditional gold mining activities significantly modify the transmission dynamic of CHIKV, leading to a potential increase of the risk of human exposition in the region

    Clinical information in electronic health records (EHRs) is mostly unstructured. With the ever-increasing amount of information in patients' EHRs, manual extraction of clinical information for data reuse can be tedious and time-consuming without dedicated tools. In this paper, we present SmartCRF, a prototype to visualize, search and ease the extraction and structuration of information from EHRs stored in an i2b2 data warehouse
