Twenty years after the latest publications performed on the parasitological indices of malaria transmission in northwest of the second city of Burkina Faso, it was important to update the epidemiological profile of malaria in children under the age of 15 years. The objective of this study was to determine and compare the parasitological parameters of malaria transmission by season, area, and age in the two zones (rice and savanna) in the northwest of Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso. Overall, the results showed that there was no significant difference in the parasitological indices of malaria transmission within children under fifteen years between the rice site and the savannah site and whatever the season ( > 0.05). The profound environmental modifications that occurred in the rice zone would have led to changes in vector behavior and consequently to changes in the epidemiological profile of malaria, contrary to the results obtained since the last publications. An entomological study correlated with this study is therefore necessary for effective decision-making for the malaria control in both areas. Future research must now focus on the impact that these profound environmental modifications of rice area are having on malaria control in Burkina Faso.
在布基纳法索第二大城市西北部进行的关于疟疾传播寄生虫学指标的最新研究发表二十年后，更新15岁以下儿童疟疾的流行病学概况很重要。本研究的目的是确定并比较布基纳法索博博迪乌拉索西北部两个区域（稻田和稀树草原）按季节、地区和年龄划分的疟疾传播寄生虫学参数。总体而言，结果表明，稻田地区和稀树草原地区十五岁以下儿童的疟疾传播寄生虫学指标之间没有显著差异，且无论季节如何（>0.05）。与上次研究结果相反，稻田地区发生的深刻环境变化本应导致媒介行为改变，进而导致疟疾流行病学概况发生变化。因此，为了在这两个地区有效开展疟疾防控工作，有必要开展一项与此研究相关的昆虫学研究。未来的研究现在必须关注稻田地区这些深刻的环境变化对布基纳法索疟疾防控工作的影响。
