Exhaled carbon monoxide
ExhCO level was associated with recent exposure to ambCO from OAP with measurable increase after 8 h of exposure. These findings suggest that ExhCO may be a potential biomarker of short-term exposure to OAP
Cotton Dust Exposure and Respiratory Disorders among Textile Workers at a Textile Company in the Southern Part of Benin
The textile industry sector occupies a prominent place in the economy of Benin. It exposes workers to several occupational risks, including exposure to cotton dust. To assess the effect of exposure to cotton dust on the health of workers, this study was initiated and conducted in a Beninese cotton industry company. The objective of the study was to evaluate the respiratory disorders among the textile workers exposed to cotton dust and the cross-s…

Partnership research on nutrition transition and chronic diseases in West Africa – trends, outcomes and impacts
BACKGROUND: Nutrition-related chronic diseases (NRCD) are rising quickly in developing countries, and the nutrition transition is a major contributor. Low-income countries have not been spared. Health issues related to nutritional deficiencies also persist, creating a double burden of malnutrition (DBM). There is still a major shortage of data on NRCD and DBM in Sub-Saharan Africa. A research program has been designed and conducted in partnership…
Obesity and cardio-metabolic risk factors in urban adults of Benin
Our data show that obesity and cardio-metabolic risk factors are highly prevalent among urban adults in Benin, which calls for urgent measures to avert the rise of diet-related chronic diseases. People with higher SES and those with a longer exposure to the urban environment are priority target groups for interventions focusing on environmental risk factors that are amenable to change in this population. Lifestyle interventions would appear appro…
Physical Activity and Socioeconomic Status Explain Rural-Urban Differences in Obesity
To explore the relationships between obesity, socioeconomic status (SES), and physical activity (PA), we conducted a study with 341 subjects of a medium-size city of Benin and its semi-rural outskirts. PA was appraised with 24-hour recalls and SES, with a questionnaire. The overall prevalence of obesity (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 30), abdominal obesity (waist circumference) and elevated percent of body fat (%BF) were 10.6%, 23.8% and 20.2%, respect…
