- Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial effects of aqueous extracts of Olax subscorpioidea and Guiera senegalensis leaves and Psorospermum guineense stem bark, three taxa used in Korhogo (Côte d'Ivoire) to treat skin infections. Muller-Hinton diffusion and dilution methods were used to assess the antibacterial activity of the aqueous extracts. All the clinical strains tested were resistant to the aqueous extract of Olax subscorpioidea leaves, with the exception of the ATCC reference strains. However, they are sensitive to aqueous extracts from Guiera senegalensis leaves and Psorospermum guineense stem bark. All three plants gave MIC values ranging from 1.56 mg/mL to 50 mg/mL, and BMC values from 6.25 mg/mL to 50 mg/mL for clinical strains. In all tests, only the aqueous extracts of Guiera senegalensis and Psorospermum guineense were bactericidal on the clinical strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The phyto-constituents assay quantified various chemical compounds present in the different aqueous extracts of Olax subscorpiodea, Guiera senegalensis and Psorospermum guineense. These are alkaloids, terpenoids, saponins, polyphenols and tannins. Polyphenols are the main phyto-constituents (7.26 mg/mL), followed by saponins (3.98 mg/mL). Aqueous extracts of Guiera senegalensis and Psorospermum guineense could constitute a good alternative in the treatment of infectious diseases. Keywords: aqueous extract, antibacterial activity, bactericide, Korhogo, L’objectif de cette étude était d’évaluer les effets antibactériens de l’extrait aqueux des feuilles de Olax subscorpioidea et de Guiera senegalensis et des écorces de tige de Psorospermum guineense, trois taxons utilisés dans la ville de Korhogo (Côte d’Ivoire) dans le traitement des infections cutanées. Les méthodes de diffusion et de dilution sur Muller-Hinton ont permis d’évaluer l’activité antibactérienne des extraits aqueux. Toutes les souches cliniques testées sont résistantes à l’extrait aqueux des feuilles de Olax subscorpioidea, à l’exception des souches de références ATCC. Cependant, elles sont sensibles aux extraits aqueux des feuilles de Guiera senegalensis et des écorces de tige de Psorospermum guineense. Les trois plantes ont donné des valeurs de CMI qui sont comprises entre 1,56 mg/mL et 50 mg/mL et des CMB compris entre 6,25 mg/mL et 50 mg/mL sur les souches cliniques. Sur l’ensemble des tests, seul les extraits aqueux de Guiera senegalensis et Psorospermum guineense ont eu un pouvoir bactéricide sur la souche clinique de Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Le dosage des phyto-constituants a permis de quantifier différents composés chimiques présents dans les différents extraits aqueux de Olax subscorpiodea, Guiera senegalensis et Psorospermum guineense. Ce sont les alcaloïdes, les terpènoïdes, les saponines, les polyphénols et les tanins. Les polyphénols sont les phyto-constituants majoritaires (7,26 mg/mL), suivis des saponines (3,98 mg/mL). Les extraits aqueux de Guiera senegalensis et Psorospermum guineense pourraient constituer une bonne alternative dans le traitement des maladies infectieuses.

- Abstract
In the face of human encroachment on forest areas, classified forests and other reserves and national parks are the last vestiges of the Ivorian forest. This study aims to make an inventory of plant diversity in the classified forest of Pouniakélé in northern Côte d'Ivoire. A diachronic analysis of Landsat ETM and ETM+ satellite images was used to assess changes in land use over the period 2002 - 2016. Surface and roving inventory methods were used to assess floristic parameters. The results show a tendency for anthropogenic formations to increase at the expense of natural formations. Thus, all the wooded formations have regressed from 72.4% in 2002 to 56.3% in 2016. On the other hand, the cultivated areas have experienced an increase in their surface (13.6% in 2002 to 25.1% in 2016). Concerning the floristic study, a total of 316 plant species, divided into 211 genera and 62 families, were inventoried in the classified forest. Among these flora, 30 species presented a particular status, proof of the conservation value of this plant formation. However, many anthropic activities threaten the integrity of this classified forest. Keywords: Land use, Satellite images, Floristic parameters, Conservation value, Côte d’Ivoire, Face à l’emprise humaine sur les surfaces forestières, les forêts classées et autres réserves et parcs nationaux constituent les derniers vestiges de la forêt ivoirienne. Cette étude vise à faire un état des lieux sur la diversité végétale de la forêt classée de Pouniakélé dans le Nord de la Côte d'Ivoire. Une analyse diachronique des images satellitaires Landsat ETM et ETM + a permis d’apprécier les changements de l’occupation des terres au cours de la période 2002 – 2016. Les méthodes d’inventaires de surface et itinérants ont permis d’apprécier les paramètres floristiques. Les résultats montrent une tendance à l’augmentation des formations anthropiques au détriment de celles des formations naturelles. Ainsi, l’ensemble des formations boisées ont régressés de 72,4% en 2002 à 56,3% en 2016. Par contre, les zones de culture ont connu une augmentation de leur superficie (13,6% en 2002 à 25,1% en 2016). Concernant l’étude floristique, au total 316 espèces végétales, réparties entre 211 genres et 62 familles, ont été inventoriées dans la forêt classée. Par cette flore, 30 espèces ont présenté un statut particulier, preuve de la valeur de conservation de cette formation végétale. Toutefois, de nombreuses activités anthropiques pratiquées menacent l’intégrité de cette forêt classée.

Dans le Département de Bondoukou (Nord-Est, Côte d’Ivoire), il existe une chaîne de hauts plateaux, connue sous le nom de « monts Bowé de Kiendi », dont la flore est très peu connue. L’objectif de l’étude est d’évaluer la diversité et la structure de la flore de cette zone, suivant le gradient altitudinal. Pour ce faire des inventaires ont été réalisés dans des parcelles de 625 m2 installées à différentes altitudes. Pour chaque parcelle, les paramètres dendrométriques (diamètre, hauteur) ont été mesurés. La richesse floristique et les indices de diversité biocénotique ont été utilisés pour l’analyse floristique et une évaluation de la structure démographique des peuplements ligneux a été réalisée à chaque niveau d’altitude. Au total, 66 espèces réparties en 56 genres et 25 familles ont été recensés. Les basses altitudes sont plus riches et plus diversifiées floristiquement que les altitudes supérieures. De même, les basses altitudes concentrent les individus des classes de petits diamètres à l’exception des altitudes intermédiaires (400-500 m) où le nombre d’individus de la classe [10-20 cm[ est supérieur à celui de la classe [5-10 cm[. Cette étude montre que les hauts plateaux constituent des aires de conservation susceptibles de garantir la préservation d’une forte biodiversité. In the Department of Bondoukou (North-East Côte d'Ivoire), there is a chain of high plateaus, known as "Monts Bowé de Kiendi", whose flora is very little known. The objective of the study is to evaluate the diversity and structure of the flora of this area, following the altitudinal gradient. To do this, inventories were carried out in plots of 625 m2 installed at different altitudes. For each plot, dendrometric parameters (diameter, height) were measured. Floristic richness and biocenotic diversity indices were used for floristic analysis and an assessment of the demographic structure of the woody stands was made at each elevation level. A total of 66 species in 56 genera and 25 families have been recorded. The lower altitudes are richer and more diversified floristically than the higher altitudes. Similarly, the lower altitudes concentrate the individuals of the small diameter classes, with the exception of the intermediate altitudes (400-500 m) where the number of individuals of the [10-20 cm [class is greater than that of the [5-10 cm [class. This study shows that the highlands are conservation areas that can guarantee the preservation of a high biodiversity.

En étudiant le potentiel floristique des ligneux de la région ivoirienne du Tchologo, cet article vient renforcer la connaissance de la flore ligneuse des savanes en Côte d'Ivoire. À cet effet, les espèces ligneuses ont été identifiées et mesurées dans des surfaces d’un hectare (200 mètres par 50 mètres) aux abords des trois principaux axes de la région d’étude. Cet inventaire a montré que la zone est riche de 88 espèces, réparties dans 69 genres et 30 familles. Le nombre moyen d’espèces varie de 19,20 ± 4,7 sur l’axe Ferkessedougou-Tafiré à 22,66±2,77 sur l’axe Korhogo-Ferkessédougou. Les familles dominantes sont les Caesalpiniaceae (13%), les Combretaceae (8%) et les Euphorbiaceae (7%). La comparaison de la densité des tiges a indiqué que l’axe Korhogo-Ferkessédougou présente la plus forte valeur. L’analyse de la diversité floristique a montré une diversité plus élevée aux abords de l’axe Ferkessedougou-Tafiré. Ces résultats attestent que la flore soudanienne présente une grande valeur écologique. The woody flora of the Ivorian savannahs, despite botanical harvests carried out by some authors, is not much studied. Thus, the floristic potential of the woody region of Tchologo, with the city of Ferkessédougou as its capital, is not yet sufficiently known. This study aimed to characterize the flora of the Tchologo region in the north of the Ivory Coast. For this purpose, woody species have been identified and measured in areas of one hectare (200 m x 50 m) near three main areas of study. This inventory showed that the area is rich with 88 species, spread over 69 genera and 30 families. The average number of species ranges from 19.20 ± 4.7 on the Ferkessedougou-Tafiré axis to 22.66 ± 2.77 on the Ferkessédougou-Sinématiali axis. The dominant families are the Caesalpiniaceae (13%), the Combretaceae (8%) and the Euphorbiaceae (7%). A comparison of stem density indicated that the Korhogo-Ferkessédougou axis has the highest value. Analysis of floristic diversity has shown a higher diversity around the Ferkessedougou-Tafiré axis. These results attest that the flora of Sudan has a great ecological value

Anogeissus leiocarpus (DC.) Guill. & Perr. (Combretaceae) et Combretum collinum Fresen. (Combretaceae) sont deux plantes de la flore ivoirienne couramment utilisées pour traiter plusieurs pathologies telles que les affections cutanées, le paludisme et la fatigue générale. Ce travail s’inscrit dans le cadre de la valorisation de cette flore. Il vise donc à évaluer l’activité antibactérienne des extraits méthanoliques bruts des feuilles de Combretum collinum et des écorces de racines de Anogeissus leiocarpus sur la croissance "in vitro" des souches de Staphylococcus aureus résistantes à la méticilline. La méthode de diffusion en milieu gélosé (solide) a été utilisée pour évaluer la sensibilité des souches bactériennes aux extraits et à déterminer les concentrations minimales inhibitrices (CMI), Quant au screening phytochimique, il a été réalisé par une chromatographie sur couche mince (CCM). La concentration minimale inhibitrice est comprise entre 0,62 mg/ml et 1,25 mg/ml pour Anogeissus leiocarpus et est de 0,325 mg/ml pour Combretum collinum. Le screening phytochimique a révélé la présence de flavonoïdes et de tanins dans l’extrait méthanolique de Anogeissus leiocarpus alors que dans l’extrait méthanolique de Combretum collinum, ce sont des acides phénoliques qui ont été mis en évidence. Il ressort donc que ces deux plantes sont dotées d’un important pouvoir antibactérien et contiennent plusieurs composés chimiques. Elles pourraient donc constituer des voies de prospection pour la recherche de nouvelles molécules antibactériennes en réalisant une étude bio-guidée des extraits bruts et en évaluant leur cytotoxicité sur des cellules hépatiques saines.Mots clés: Antibactérienne, plantes médicinales, flore ivoirienne, extraits methanoliques English Title: Phytochemical screening of methanolic extracts from leaves of Combretum collinum and roots of Anogeisus leiocarpus and in vitro antibacterial effect on multiresistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus Both Anogeissus leiocarpus (DC.) Guill. & Perr. (Combretaceae) and Combretum collinum Fresen. (Combretaceae) are Ivorian national flora plants commonly used in treating skin disorders, malaria, and general fatigue. The current study consists of the valorization of this flora, and aims therefore at revealing antibacterial activity of the methanol crude extracts obtained from stem bark and leaves of the respective plants, against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains. Agar gel diffusion method was used to assess bacteria susceptibility, and broth dilution method allowed determination of minimum inhibition concentrations (MICs). These parameters varied from 0.62 mg/ml to 1.25 mg/ml for Anogeissus leiocarpus, while they reached 0.325 mg/ml for Combretum collinum. In addition, phytochemical screening brought about flavonoids and tanins for the plant, and phenolic acids for the other one. In conclusion, these named plants contain several chemical compounds with antibacterial properties, and could be of great interest in the search of new molecular compounds provided with antibacterial activity through bio-guided experiments. Furthermore, they could best hold value by testing those methanol extracts over hepatic sane cells for cytotoxicity assessment. Keywords: antibacterial, medicinal plants, Ivorian national flora, methanolic extracts.

Objectif : La chaîne de montagnes du Bowé de Kiendi, au Nord-Est de la Côte d’Ivoire, est soumise à une déforestation massive, du fait de la culture de Anacardium occidentale. Pourtant, sa flore est très peu connue. L’objectif de ce travail est d’étudier la composition et la richesse floristiques de cette chaîne. Méthodologie et résultats : La méthode de relevé de surface a été réalisé sur 60 placettes de 25 m x 25 m à trois les niveaux d’altitude. Cette méthode, completé par un relevé itinérant, a permis d’inventorier 289 espèces, appartenant à 189 genres rangés en 56 familles. Une baisse de la richesse spécifique, des basses altitudes vers les altitudes les plus élevées a été observée. Sur les trois niveaux d’altitude, les microphanérophytes ont été les plus répandus. Les arbustes ont été les plus répandus sur les basses altitudes (39,30%) et les altitudes intermédiaires (36,68 %) tandis que les herbes (45,65 %) constituent la première forme morphologique des hautes altitudes. Les espèces du type phytogéographique GC-SZ ont été les plus représentées, quel que soit le niveau d’altitude considéré. Les Fabaceae, les Phyllanthaceae, les Combretaceae, les Apocynaceae et les Anacardiaceae ont été les cinq familles prépondérantes dans les trois niveaux d’altitudes. Cinq (5) espèces ont été observées à toutes les altitudes. Il s’agit d’Afzelia africana, Uapaca togoensis, Vitellaria paradoxa, Holarrhena floribunda et Lannea acida. Uapaca togoensis est la première espèce d’importance écologique au niveau des basses altitudes (IVIesp =78,60) et altitudes intermédiaires (IVIesp=57,48). Afzelia africana est la première espèce d’importance écologique (IVIesp =117,67). Conclusion et application des résultats : La chaîne de montagnes du Bowé de Kiendi est donc un réservoir d’espèces végétales souvent rares et menacées d’extinction dont il convient de protéger. English title: Ecological values study of Bowé mountain range in the Gontougo region in North-Eastern Côte d'Ivoire Abstract Objective: Kiendi Bowé mountain range is facing massive deforestation because of cultivation of cashew nut tree. However, this flora is very little known. The objective of this work is to study composition and floristic richness of this Mountain Range. Methodology and Results: The surface survey method was performed on 60 plots of 25 m x 25 m at all elevation levels. This method is completed by traveling survey and has been used to identify 289 species belonging to 189 genera and 56 families. A decline in specific richness, from low altitudes to higher altitudes was obtained. Microphanerophytes were most prevalent at all three elevation levels. Shrubs were most common at low altitudes (39.30%) and intermediate altitudes (36.68%), while grasses (45.65%) were the first biological form of high altitudes. Species of phytogeographic type GC-SZ were the most represented at all altitude level. Fabaceae, Phyllanthaceae, Combretaceae, Apocynaceae and Anacardiaceae were five dominant families in three elevation levels. Five (5) species were observed at all altitudes. These are Afzelia africana, Uapaca togoensis, Vitellaria paradoxa, Holarrhena floribunda and Lannea acida. Uapaca togoensis is the first species of ecological importance at low altitudes (IVIesp=78.60) and intermediate altitudes (IVIesp=57.48). Afzelia africana is the first ecologically important species (IVIesp=117.67). Conclusion and application of results: The Kiendi Bowé mountain range is therefore a reservoir of rare and endangered plant species that must be protected.

Purpose: To show the interest of the serum-ascites concentration gradient in albumin (SAAG) in the etiological diagnosis of ascites in African black. Materiel and Methods: This was a monocentric observational and analytical study performed on patients over 15 years old and hospitalized in the Hepato-Gastroenterology department of Cocody from January 1st, 2010 to March 31st, 2017 for ascites. The cytology and chemistry of the ascites fluid and the protidogram were performed. The main outcome measure was the prediction of portal hypertension (PHT) or non-portal hypertension related causes of ascites from SAAG. Results: The hospital prevalence of ascites was 11%. There were 82 women (46.9%) and 93 men (53.1%) with a sex ratio (M/F) of 1.1. SAAG was low in 68.6% of cases and high in 31.4% of cases. The most common etiologies were post-viral cirrhosis (74%), HCC (16.60%) and peritoneal tuberculosis (13.7%) respectively. In the case of high SAAG, 91% of ascites related to PHT were observed, but also 77.5% of a low SAAG corresponded to ascites related to PHT (p = 0.024) with Se = 35% Sp = 84% and accuracy = 44%. All patients with peritoneal tuberculosis had a SAAG low of less than 1.1 g/dl significantly (p = 0.002). SAAG had a diagnostic performance of 89% in peritoneal tuberculosis at the cutoff value of ?1.24 g/dl (AUROC = 0.91, Se = 96%, Sp = 86%) while in post viral hepatitis cirrhosis at a threshold of 0.58 g/dl the diagnostic performance was 60% (AUROC = 0.69, Se = 53%, Sp = 79%). Conclusion: The simple technical SAAG, allowing to distinguish the ascites linked to the PHT and the ascites not bound to the PHT, can be used like a method of diagnosis of the etiologies of the ascites especially in the peritoneal tuberculosis in the African countries low income.

L’ulcere de Buruli est une maladie tropicale negligee qui se manifeste par des ulcerations graves de la peau, des muscles et des os, pouvant conduire a des amputations. Des efforts ont ete faits pour eradiquer cette maladie. Cependant, de nouveaux cas sont diagnostiques chaque annee et les foyers endemiques ne font que se multiplier. La penetration dans l’organisme de l’agent pathogene, Mycobacterium ulcerans, se ferait suite a une effraction cutanee causee notamment par les plantes. L’objectif de ce travail est d’evaluer le niveau de connaissance de l’ulcere de Buruli des populations et du role des plantes dans la transmission de cette maladie afin de mieux sensibiliser sur les modes de prevention. Des entretiens bases sur la methode Connaissance, Attitudes et Pratiques (CAP) ont ete realises dans les Districts sanitaires de Daloa et de Bouake (Cote d’Ivoire). Les donnees demographiques, la connaissance des signes, des causes et des appellations de l’ulcere de Buruli dans les langues locales ont ete obtenues. Il en ressort que les populations ont une connaissance fragmentaire de l’ulcere de Buruli. Les appellations de la maladie sont liees a la taille de la plaie sur la peau. Les populations ont identifie des especes vegetales telles que Elaeis guineensis, Imperata cylindrica, Chromolaena odorata et Combretum racemosum comme pouvant causer des effractions cutanees. La cause mystique de la maladie est frequente. Il serait donc urgent d’accentuer les campagnes de sensibilisation dans les zones endemiques d’ulcere de Buruli. Buruli ulcer (BU) is a neglected tropical disease leading to severe ulcerations of the skin, muscles and bones leading to amputations if not earlier detected. Despite efforts to eradicate this disease, new cases are diagnosed every year and endemic foci are increasing. The penetration into the body of the pathogen agent Mycobacterium ulcerans, would occur after a skin injures due to plants materials. The objective of this work was to assess the level of knowledge of the populations and the role that plants could play in the transmission of Buruli ulcer. Interviews were conducted in four villages belonging to two Health Districts in Cote d'Ivoire, based on knowledge, attitude, and the practice (KAP) method. Demographic data set, knowledge of the signs, causes and names of Buruli ulcer in the local language were obtained. Plants that can cause injuries have been identified. It appears that populations have a fragmentary knowledge of Buruli ulcer. The names of the disease are related to the size of the wound on the skin. Populations have identified plant species such as Elaeis guineensis, Imperata cylindrica, Chromolaena odorata and Combretum racemosum as causing openings on the skin. The mystical cause of the disease is frequent. Thus, it would therefore be urgent to increase awareness campaigns in the endemic areas of Buruli ulcer.

- Abstract
Since the 1970s, the northern part of Côte d'Ivoire has experienced considerable fluctuation in its meteorology including a general decrease of rainfall and increase of temperature from 1970 to 2000, a slight increase of rainfall since 2000, a severe drought in 2004-2005 and flooding in 2006-2007. Such changing climate patterns might affect the transmission of malaria. The purpose of this study was to analyze climate and environmental parameters associated with malaria transmission in Korhogo, a city in northern Côte d'Ivoire. All data were collected over a 10-year period (2004-2013). Rainfall, temperature and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) were the climate and environmental variables considered. Association between these variables and clinical malaria data was determined, using negative binomial regression models. From 2004 to 2013, there was an increase in the annual average precipitation (1100.3-1376.5 mm) and the average temperature (27.2°C-27.5°C). The NDVI decreased from 0.42 to 0.40. We observed a strong seasonality in these climatic variables, which resembled the seasonality in clinical malaria. An incremental increase of 10 mm of monthly precipitation was, on average, associated with a 1% (95% Confidence interval (CI): 0.7 to 1.2%) and a 1.2% (95% CI: 0.9 to 1.5%) increase in the number of clinical malaria episodes one and two months later respectively. A 1°C increase in average monthly temperature was, on average, associated with a decline of a 3.5% (95% CI: 0.1 to 6.7%) in clinical malaria episodes. A 0.1 unit increase in monthly NDVI was associated with a 7.3% (95% CI: 0.8 to 14.1%) increase in the monthly malaria count. There was a similar increase for the preceding-month lag (6.7% (95% CI: 2.3% to 11.2%)). The study results can be used to establish a malaria early warning system in Korhogo to prepare for outbreaks of malaria, which would increase community resilience no matter the magnitude and pattern of climate change., Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist.

- Abstract
Aim: The purpose of this study was to assess hepatitis B knowledge among secondary school students' in Côte d'Ivoire in order to promote the inclusion of hepatitis B education in school curricula., Material and Methods: a single cross-sectional survey involving six schools (7,376 students) was conducted. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire., Results: All students present on the day of the survey agreed to participate in the study (100%, n = 3,352). The mean age of the participants was 17.9 years (10-26 years), with a male-to-female sex ratio of 1.68. Among them, 2,552 (76.6%) had heard of the HVB. School was the main source of information (12%), after the mass media (62%). The causative agent of the disease was known by 74.1% of students (n = 2,484), sexual transmission by 39.3% (n = 1316), and blood-borne transmission by 57.2% (n = 1919). Respectively 29%, 40% and 41% of the students were aware that acupuncture, body piercing and tattooing are high-risk practices. Only 35.7% of the students knew that there was an effective vaccine. The factors associated with hepatitis B knowledge were: being aged 16 to 20 years (OR = 1.73 [95% CI 1.198 to 2.49]), living in a permanent house or apartment (OR = 1.58 [95% CI 1.234 to 2.02]) or in a house or apartment with no more than 2 persons per room (OR = 1.41 [95% CI 1.15 to 1.74]), being in terminale (final year of high school) (OR = 2.54 [2.01 to 3, 20IC95%]), and having two working parents (OR =1.54 [95% CI 1.25 to 1.88])., Conclusion: The students' knowledge of the hepatitis B virus was found to be inadequate and superficial. Early awareness programs provided as part of the official curriculum and measures to improve the social conditions of students should help to improve knowledge in this area.
