Patient‐ and caregiver‐reported barriers to chemotherapy in nine sub‐Saharan African countries: A cross‐sectional survey among population‐based registries

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 10, Page 2684-2696, 15 May 2026.
What's New? Increasing cancer incidence and mortality in low‐ and middle‐income countries has heightened concerns about limited resources and barriers to care. This challenge is particularly urgent in Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), where cancer rates are rising sharply. Here, data from population‐based cancer registries in nine SSA countries was assessed to

An Evaluation of WRF‐Chem's Performance in Simulating PM2.5 in West African Cities

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract West Africa experiences some of the highest particulate pollution levels globally due to Saharan dust, biomass burning and urban emissions. Despite the severe health burden, air quality monitoring remains sparse. This study evaluates WRF‐Chem's performance in simulating PM2.5 levels across seven West African cities in 2021 using newly ...

Evaluation of SENTINEL-2 products-based algorithms in estimating water pollutants of the River Niger in Bamako

Environmental Research Communications
Monitoring surface water quality on a spatio-temporal scale is very important to restrict the entry of polluting components into water bodies, particularly rivers. Traditional techniques of assessing water quality are typically costly and time-consuming.
