Abstract
BACKGROUND The burden of cardiovascular diseases is rising in the developing world including Sub-Saharan Africa. The rapid rise of cardiovascular disease burden is in part due to undetected and uncontrolled cardiovascular risk factors. The clustering of metabolic syndrome (MetS) components is associated with a high risk of cardiovascular diseases. This complex biochemical disorder is still poorly studied in western Africa. In this study, we aimed to determine the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and its determinants among the adult population in Burkina Faso. METHODS We performed a secondary analysis of the data from the first national survey on non-communicable diseases risk factors using the World Health Organization (WHO) Stepwise approach. We included 4019 study participants aged 25 to 64 years. The metabolic syndrome prevalence was estimated using six different definitions. RESULTS The mean age was 38.6±11.1 years. Women represented 52.4% and three quarters (75%) lived in rural areas. The overall prevalence of metabolic syndrome according to the different definitions was 1.6% (95%CI:1.1-2.2) for the American College of Endocrinology, 1.8% (95%CI: 1.3-2.4) for the WHO, 4.3% (95%CI:3.5-5.2) for the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III, 6.2% (95%CI: 5.1-7.6) for the AAH/NHBI, 9.6%(95%CI: 8.1-11.3) for the International Diabetes Federation and 10.9% (95%: 9.2-12.7) for the Joint Interim Statement. The metabolic syndrome components with the highest prevalence were low High density lipoprotein (63.3%), abdominal obesity (22.3%) and hypertension (20.6%). People living in urban areas and those with older age have higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome regardless of the definition used. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest various levels of prevalence of MetS according to the definition used. Identifying the most appropriate criteria for MetS among the adult population is important to early detect and treat this syndrome and its components at the primary health care level to control the rising burden of cardiovascular diseases in the context of ongoing epidemiological transition in the country.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Areas with declining malaria transmission in sub-Saharan Africa have recently witnessed important changes in the aetiology of childhood acute febrile illness (AFI). We describe the aetiology of AFI in a high malaria transmission area in rural Burkina Faso. METHODS In a prospective hospital-based diagnostic study, children aged 3 months to 15 years with AFI were recruited and assessed using a systematic diagnostic protocol, including blood cultures, whole blood PCR on a selection of bacterial pathogens, malaria diagnostics and a multiplex PCR on nasopharyngeal swabs targeting 21 viral and 4 bacterial respiratory pathogens. RESULTS A total of 589 children with AFI were enrolled from whom an infectious disease was considered in 575 cases. Acute respiratory tract infections, malaria and invasive bacterial infections (IBI) accounted for 179 (31.1%), 175 (30.4%) and 75 (13%) of AFI cases respectively; 16 (21.3%) of IBI cases also had malarial parasitaemia. A viral pathogen was demonstrated from the nasopharynx in 157 children (90.7%) with respiratory tract symptoms. Of all children with viral respiratory tract infections, 154 (92.4% received antibiotics, whereas no antibiotic was provided in 13 (17%) of IBI cases. CONCLUSIONS Viral respiratory infections are a common cause of childhood AFI in high malaria transmission areas, next to malaria and IBI. These findings highlight the importance of interventions to improve targeted treatment with antimicrobials. Most patients with viral infections received antibiotics unnecessarily, while a considerable number with IBI did not receive antibiotics.
