“…The analysis of the health situation revealed many deficiencies in the sanitation management system in six precarious settlements, exposing people to sanitation-related diseases such as malaria, diarrhea and others (Dongo et al 2009). Several studies have established a relationship between the level of hygiene of communities and the concentration of viruses in sewage (Lugoli et al 2009;Bos et al 2010;Naik and Stenstrom 2012).…”

The aim of this study was to assess the variability of the content of nutrients, oxidizable organic and particulate matters in raw sewage and the lagoon on the effect of rainfall. Then evaluate the impact of these changes in the concentration of enteroviruses (EVs) in waters. The sewage samples were collected at nine sampling points along the channel, which flows, into a tropical lagoon in Yopougon. Physical-chemical parameters (5-day Biochemical Oxygen Demand, Chemical Oxygen Demand, Suspended Particulate Matter, Total Phosphorus, Orthophosphate, Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen and Nitrate) as well as the concentration of EV in these waters were determined. The average numbers of EV isolated from the outlet of the channel were 9.06 9 10 4 PFU 100 ml -1 . Consequently, EV was present in 55.55 and 33.33 % of the samples in the 2 brackish lagoon collection sites. The effect of rainfall on viral load at the both sewage and brackish lagoon environments is significant correlate (two-way ANOVA, P \ 0.05). Furthermore, in lagoon environment, nutrients (Orthophosphate, Total Phosphorus), 5-day Biochemical Oxygen Demand, Chemical Oxygen Demand and Suspended Particulate Matter were significant correlated with EVs loads (P \ 0.05 by Pearson test). The overall results highlight the problem of sewage discharge into the lagoon and correlation between viral loads and water quality parameters in sewage and lagoon.

“…Wealthy households can relocate to healthier neighbourhoods or take steps to improve their surrounding environments. For instance, an effect of a poor environment may be highlighted, while its estimated impact is partly the result of omitted demographic and socioeconomic factors (Dongo et al, 2008;Kandala et al, 2008). Higher levels of schooling may also cause mothers to seek effective medical care more quickly than their less educated counterparts when their children fall ill (Filmer, 2005).…”

“…Taking into account the specific effects of neighbourhood has increasingly become an essential part of urban health research (Gauvin & Dassa, 2004), most notably in studying the links between household environmental conditions and the facilities available in the neighbourhood (e.g. Dongo et al, 2008;Fobil et al, 2011), which are neighbourhoods characterized precisely by their lack of basic urban infrastructure (water, electricity and sanitation) (UN-Habitat, 2013). Many studies have focused on the poorer health conditions in informal neighbourhoods and slums (e.g.…”

Environmental Factors and Childhood Fever in Areas of the Ouagadougou Health and Demographic Surveillance System, Burkina Faso

et al. 2014

Using data on 825 under-5 children from the Ouagadougou Health and Demographic Surveillance System collected in 2010, this article examines the effects of aspects of the immediate environment on childhood fever. Logit regression models were estimated to assess the effects of the quality of the local environment on the probability that a child is reported to have had a fever in the two weeks preceding the survey, after controlling for various demographic and socioeconomic variables. While the estimated impact of some environmental factors persisted in the full models, the effects of variables such as access to water and type of household waste management decreased in the presence of demographic, socioeconomic and neighbourhood factors. The management of waste water was found to significantly affect the occurrence of childhood fever. Overall, the results of the study call for more efforts to promote access to tap water to households at prices that are affordable for the local population, where the threats to child health appears to be greatest.

Ceci est imputé à la forte proportion des habitants vivant dans les zones déshéritées au sein des populations urbaines en pleine expansion (OMS et UNICEF, 2007).…”

The well waters are solicited for several uses in the households in the sixth district of Cotonou. In order to assess the contamination of these wells waters by some pathogenic germs, one hundred and twenty (120) samples were collected for four (4) seasonal campaigns (two rainy and two dry) at the rate of thirty (30) samples per season. The study has focused on the research of Salmonella and choleraic vibrios by using the referenced methods. The European Scientific Journal February 2018 edition Vol.14, No.6 ISSN: 1857 -7881 (Print) e -ISSN 1857 253 analysis results indicate the presence of salmonella sp. in 73.33 % (high rainy season) ; 56.67 % (high dry season) ; 43.33 % (small rainy season) and 40 % (small dry season) of well water samples. The strains of vibrios isolated do not agglutinate with serum anti-O1 and anti-O139. The burden in these non-O1/non-O139 vibrios in the waters varies from <1 to 10 CFU/100 ml. This pathogenic germ is identified in most of the well water (46.67 %) during the small dry season. These two pathogenic bacteria that are found out of standards in the water of the wells analyzed can cause minor or severe infections to the riparian population consumers.Keywords: Well water, Bacteriological contamination, Salmonella, non-O1/non-O139 Vibrios, Sanitary risks RésuméLes eaux de puits sont sollicitées pour plusieurs usages dans les ménages du sixième arrondissement de Cotonou. Dans le but d'évaluer la contamination de ces eaux de puits par certains germes pathogènes, cent vingt (120) Les souches de vibrions isolées n'agglutinent pas avec les sérums anti-O1 et anti-O139. La charge en vibrions non-O1/non-O139 dans les eaux varie de <1 à 10 UFC/100 ml. Ce pathogène est dénombré dans la plupart des eaux de puits (46,67 %) pendant la petite saison sèche. Ces deux bactéries pathogènes qui se retrouvent hors normes dans les eaux de puits analysées peuvent provoquer des infections bénignes ou graves à la population riveraine consommatrice.
