Chemical and Olfactory Analysis of the Volatile Fraction of Ocimum gratissimum Concrete from Madagascar
Chem Biodivers. 2023 Jun 27:e202300252. doi: 10.1002/cbdv.202300252. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe chemical composition of the volatile fraction of Ocimum gratissimum concrete (romba) from Madagascar has been determined for the first time by GC/MS and GC-FID. A methyl cinnamate chemotype has been determined for this material, along with a set of compounds typical in essential oils and extracts from plants of the Ocimum genus. Variability was mostly observed on terpenes and terpenoids components. GC-O-MS was also used for a sensory evaluation of this material performed by a master perfumer. The chemical composition of t...

Enjeux et difficult és de l'accès aux traitements pour la prise en charge de l'hépatite B chronique à Madagascar : étude qualitative auprès des soignants et personnes atteintes
CONCLUSIONS: This first qualitative study on the experiences of HBV-infected persons in terms of access to care and treatment in Madagascar underlines the extent to which access to treatment remains limited, due to the absence of a national policy for the prevention, screening and management of hepatitis B, which remains a highly neglected and unrecognized disease in Madagascar as well as internationally.PMID:37352795 | DOI:10.1016/j.respe.2023.102088 (Source: Revue d Epidemiologie et de Sante Publique)

BackgroundAntibiotic resistance is a global public health issue, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where antibiotics required to treat resistant infections are not affordable. LMICs also bear a disproportionately high burden ...

Hundreds of new primate genomes offer window into human health —and our past
Humans have long seen themselves mirrored in other primates, with apes’ social behavior and cognitive abilities shedding light on our own. Now, two international teams have stared deeper into the mirror. By sequencing the genomes of more than 200 nonhuman primates, from palm-size mouse lemurs to 200-kilogram gorillas, they have come up with clues to human health and disease, and to the origin of our species.
The
genomes and their analyses
, reported today in
Science
and
Science Advances
, represent a massive effort involving more than 100 researchers from about 20 countries who braved ...

In recent years, it has become widely accepted that interspecific gene flow is common across the Tree of Life. Questions remain about how species boundaries can be maintained in the face of high levels of gene flow and how phylogeneticists should account for reticulation in their analyses. The true lemurs of Madagascar (genus Eulemur, 12 species) provide a unique opportunity to explore these questions, ...

One Health: navigating plague in Madagascar amidst COVID-19
ConclusionsDespite being endemic to Madagascar, the outbreak ’s pace is unparalleled, and it may spread to non-endemic areas. The utilization of a One Health strategy that encompasses various disciplines is crucial for minimizing catastrophe risk, antibiotic resistance, and outbreak readiness. Collaboration across sectors and proper planning ensures efficie nt and consistent communication, risk management, and credibility during disease outbreaks.Graphical Abstract (Source: Infectious Diseases of Poverty)
