Compliance with ethical standards
:
: All authors declare absence of interest conflicts.
: Since there was no ethical committee in the Reserves of Dja and Lobo to request authorization for research studies on local populations, signed informed consent to participation in the study was requested directly to enrolled adult subjects both Baka Pygmies and Bantu. The authorization to carry out these population studies followed all recommendations of the Helsinki Convention, and then was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the University of Pavia (Protocol no. 5/2007 on November 20 2007).
