          Abstract

          We use the county-by-county rollout of the program and employ the difference-in-difference (DID) methodology to identify the effects of the implementation of the nutrition improvement program for rural compulsory education students on adolescent health. The results show that the nutrition improvement program reduces the frequency and probability of illness and improves the students' health status. The heterogeneity analysis indicates that the children in western regions and children left behind have a greater marginal improvement. It finds that the nutrition improvement program for rural compulsory education students improves adolescent health through diversifying nutrition intake to alleviate malnutrition and developmental delay in impoverished areas. The program can promote adolescent health in impoverished areas, which has a role in improving regional health disparities and alleviating the intergenerational entrenchment of poverty.

            Global cancer statistics in the year 2000.

            D Parkin (2001)
            Estimation of the burden of cancer in terms of incidence, mortality, and prevalence is a first step to appreciating appropriate control measures in a global context. The latest results of such an exercise, based on the most recent available international data, show that there were 10 million new cases, 6 million deaths, and 22 million people living with cancer in 2000. The most common cancers in terms of new cases were lung (1.2 million), breast (1.05 million), colorectal (945,000), stomach (876,000), and liver (564,000). The profile varies greatly in different populations, and the evidence suggests that this variation is mainly a consequence of different lifestyle and environmental factors, which should be amenable to preventive interventions. World population growth and ageing imply a progressive increase in the cancer burden--15 million new cases and 10 million new deaths are expected in 2020, even if current rates remain unchanged.
