[Epidemiologic aspects of whooping cough in a village of the central district of Kolokani in Mali].

Epidemiologic aspects of a whooping cough outbreak are studied in a village of a rural precinct of Kolokani in Mali. The survey shows that the village as been contaminated by two children coming from Bamako, an urban center. Spreading of the epidemic is due to the lack of suitable therapy and vaccination. Seventeen cases are noticed within 83 children aged 0 to 13 years (20.5%) from October 12th, 1988, to January 22nd, 1989. The attack rate is the same in males and females. Knowledge, attitudes and practices of the population to face whooping cough are noted. Measures are proposed for therapy and prevention.

[Resistance of Vibrio cholerae 0:1 to the 0/129 compound and multiresistance to antibiotics].

The authors present a study of the in vitro susceptibility to O/129 compound and usual antibiotics of 29 strains of V. cholerae O:1 biotype El Tor isolated during epidemics in miscellaneous countries over the world from 1982 to 1991. Several identical isolates from the same epidemic are represented by one strain. Susceptibility testing by diffusion method and MICs by agar dilution method are used. The data show that the resistance to O/129 compound is often associated with the resistance to usual antibiotics such as trimethoprim, sulphonamides, chloramphenicol, ampicillin and tetracycline. This resistance to the vibrostatic compound leads to a double problem of diagnosis and therapy. The nitrofuranes derivatives and tiliquinol-tilbroquinol association, an intestinal antiseptic, are the most active antimicrobial agents as well on the strains O/129 sensitive as on the strains O/129 resistant.

[Bacteriologic characteristics of 25 strains of Vibrio cholerae, biotype eltor isolated in Mali].

This work studies bacteriological characters of 25 strains of V. cholerae isolated in Mali during the outbreak of 1984-1987. These strains were precisely identified by biochemistry characters, toxin secretion, presence of a structure considered as attachment factor. Antibiotic susceptibility study confirmed the great sensibility of V. cholerae to this products, and allowed to classify them according to their Cl90. This contribution of the laboratory is very interesting for the control of the disease and the choice of standardized scheme of treatment.
