Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 25, Issue 6, Page 740-750, June 2020., 2020
Abstract Objectives Mass administration of azithromycin has reduced mortality in children in sub‐Saharan Africa but its mode of action is not well characterised. A recent trial found that azithromycin given alongside seasonal malaria chemoprevention was not associated with a reduction in mortality or hospital admissions in young children.

Socio‐Residential Inequalities and Inequalities at Elementary School: Repetition in French‐Speaking African Countries

African Development Review, Volume 37, Issue 4, December 2025.
Résumé Ce travail analyse, à partir de deux enquêtes PASEC (2014 et 2019), le redoublement à l’école primaire. Nous montrons que les enfants vivant en zone rurale ont, dans la majorité des pays, une probabilité plus élevée de redoubler avant le Grade 6.

L′interprétation matricielle de la théorie de Markoff classique

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 193-262, 2002., 2002
On explicite l′approche de Cohn (1955) de la théorie de Markoff. On montre en particulier comment l′arbre complet des solutions de l′équation diophantienne associée apparasît comme quotient du groupe GL (2, ℤ) des matrices 2 × 2 à coefficients entiers et de déterminant ±1 par un sous‐groupe diédral D6 à 12 éléments.

Etude de la Conduction Ionique du βPbF2

Active and Passive Electronic Components, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 55-59, 1975., 1974
Measurements were made with sintered samples in vacuum at 10−5 torr. Voltages of frequencies varying between 0.1 and 5 × 104 Hz at different temperatures (300 to 500 K) were used. The impedance diagrams show two regions. 1) a circular diagram in the high frequency region. 2) a poorly defined diagram in the lower frequency region.
