    Open AccessIsmael Ngnie-Teta, Ismael Ngnie‐Teta et al.ARTICLEPublic Health Nutrition2009

    Objective Anaemia currently affects 40–80 % of women in Africa. While risk factors for anaemia have been intensively studied, research has rarely compared risk factors between mild anaemia and moderate/severe anaemia.

    Kuate-Defo Barthélémy. - L'évolution de la nuptialité des adolescentes au Cameroun et ses déterminants À partir de trois enquêtes successives représentatives au niveau national et au moyen d'une analyse des biographies, on teste l'hypothèse que l'entrée en vie conjugale avant 20 ans est de moins en moins fréquente au Cameroun. L'évaluation des données montre que les informations fournies par les femmes de 20-34 ans, et surtout de 20-24 ans, sont …
