Introduction: Dry eye disease (DED) is a multifactorial disease of the ocular surface in which environmental factors play an important role. The goal of this study was to investigate the epidemiological and clinical features of dry eye among professional urban motorcycle taxi drivers in the city of Douala.
Patients And Methods: This was a prospective, cross-sectional, analytical study of professional motorcycle taxi drivers in the city of Douala.

Background: We reported immunological and virologic outcomes within 10 years of combined Antiretroviral Therapy (cART) initiated no later than age one year and associated factors in children with perinatal HIV in Cameroon.
Setting: This study was conducted in 3 referral hospitals in Cameroon.
Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study, using time-to-event analysis.
Article Synopsis
- - Sorindeia nitidula is traditionally used for treating influenza symptoms, including headaches and fever, but its active compounds haven't been fully studied yet.
- - The study focused on evaluating the antioxidant, anti-HIV, and antitrypanosomal activities of its ethyl acetate extract, discovering 21 phenolic compounds with notable effects (e.g., potent antioxidant activity at 0.0129 mg/mL).
- - Notably, the extract showed no cytotoxic effects on HeLa cancer cells and leveraged advanced MS techniques to enhance understanding of its beneficial ingredients for potential therapeutic use.
Purpose: To study prognostic factors and functional visual outcomes of soldiers after firearm-related ocular trauma in the conflict zone.
Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional analytical study was carried out from January 2017 to December 2022 in the ophthalmology departments of three military hospitals. Soldiers with firearm-related ocular trauma were selected.
Purpose: To investigate the relationship between refraction and ocular axial length in albinos.
Patients And Methods: A cross-sectional, analytical study was carried out from June to November 2021 at the Central Hospital of Yaounde (Cameroon), which included consenting albino subjects aged over 15years. All subjects underwent visual acuity testing, axial length measurements and objective refraction under cycloplegia.
