Epidemiological Profile

Introduction. Comme pour toutes les maladies rares ou maladies orphelines, l’étude des thrombopathies devrait être multicentrique pour recenser le maximum ou tous les patients dans une région ou dans le pays concerné. Notre étude a pour objectif d’évaluer la prévalence des thrombopathies constitutionnelles dans l’Ouest Algérien, et décrire ainsi les caractéristiques épidémiologiques de notre population. Patients et méthodes. Il s’agit d’une étude descriptive régionale du profil épidémiologique de 61 patients de l’Ouest Algérien présentant une thrombopathie constitutionnelle. Résultats. Dans notre étude a trouvé 34 thrombasthénies de Glanzmann (TG), 18thrombopathies de Jean Bernard Soulier (JBS), 08thrombopathies de May-Hegglin (MH) et un syndrome de Scott avec une prévalence globale de 1,8/1 million habitants. Conclusion. Notre travail nous a permis d’avoir un contexte global sur les thrombopathies constitutionnelles qui serait sans doute la base d’autres études de caractère clinique, biologique ou même moléculaire surtout en matière de recrutement de patients.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to evaluate the follow-up of hypertensive patients with or without associated cardiovascular risk factors in western Algeria. And to establish a biological and epidemiological profile. Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study. Two hundred patients aged 40 years and over followed up for the HTA were collected among the population of patients seen in consultation at the hospital of Mascara and Saida (two cities in western Algeria) from November 15, 2017 to February 15. The questionnaire, anthropometric parameters, biological assessments and treatments were noted. Results: Among the 200 hypertensive subjects recorded, 60% were women and 40% men. The participants had been hypertensive for an average of 10 years. There were more men with diabetes than women: 71.25% vs. 65% for women. About a third of them were type 1 (30% of men and 12.5% of women, p=0.228). Both sexes were almost equally represented, with regard to dyslipidemia: 57.5% of women vs. 60% of men. Conclusion: High blood pressure is a disease that is progressing rapidly in Algeria. The risk factors associated with hypertension are: Age, BMI, diabetes and dyslipidemia... These data confirm the importance of this pathology in terms of public health.

AbstractThe forest of Doui Thabet is one of the forests of the Mounts of Saida (Western Algeria) which is experiencing a dynamic regressive. Located in the semi-arid bioclimatic stage, it is located at the edge of two phytogeographic sub-sectors: atlas Tellien Oranais (O3) and high plateau subsector (H1). Among the factors that threaten to curb this fragile and weakened ecosystem, in addition to drought and climate aridity and which has become a structural ecological phenomenon; the overgrazing is also a major limiting factor. This current study provides a qualitative and quantitative assessment of anthropogenic pressure exerted in this area zone. The methodology adopted in this study is that of Le Houerou (1969) and Montoya (1983), which it is based on the calculation of the annual needs of the herd in forage units, the estimate of the feed potential of production, the coefficient of overgrazing and in addition to the anthropogenic pressure index. The result of the forage balance in the forest rangelands of the studied area has a forage deficit (overload) of (96.64%) (a sylvopastoral imbalance), in addition to that, the coefficient of overgrazing is (92.3%) and the anthropogenic pressure index is very high (28). The conservation and the restoration of this area is a major concern in the face of global changes, taking into account their mode of reproduction and their dynamics, for the development of restoration strategies and more effective ways of protection.
