<li><a class='post' href='http://feeds.kff.org/~r/kff/kdghpr/~3/DO-EydysPKU/GH-020612-World-Cancer-Day.aspx' title='&quot;Early diagnosis is the key to reducing the nearly eight million deaths caused by cancer across the globe annually, the United Nations World Health Organization (WHO) said&quot; on Saturday to mark World Cancer Day, &quot;stressing the importance of screening programs for healthy people to detect the disease promptly for easier treatment,&quot; the U.N. News Centre reports (2/3). The theme of this year&#039;s day, which is recognized annually on February 4, was &quot;Together It Is Possible,&quot; &quot;reinforcing that it is only by every person, organization, and government individually doing their part that the world will be able to reduce premature deaths from cancer and other non-communicable diseases,&quot; according to a press release from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (2/4). The WHO &quot;reminded the world that cancer is responsible for close to 13 percent of deaths globally, accounting for 7.6 million deaths in 2008,&quot; according to the U.N. News Centre (2/3).'>World Cancer Day Highlights Importance Of Detection, Prevention</a></li>
<li><a class='post' href='http://feeds.kff.org/~r/kff/kdghpr/~3/GhxL6CuYXD0/GH-020612-H5N1-Live-Debate.aspx' title='&quot;The controversy over research about potentially dangerous H5N1 viruses heated up [Thursday night] in a New York City debate that featured some of the leading voices exchanging blunt comments on the alleged risks and benefits of publishing or withholding the full details of the studies,&quot; CIDRAP News reports. &quot;The debate, sponsored by the New York Academy of Sciences, involved two members of the biosecurity advisory board that called for &#039;redacting&#039; the two studies in question to delete details, along with scientists who want the full studies published and representatives of Science and Nature, the two journals involved,&quot; the news service adds (Roos, 2/3).'>Panel Discussion Shows Heated Controversy Over H5N1 Research</a></li>
<li><a class='post' href='http://feeds.kff.org/~r/kff/kdghpr/~3/xtxbM5hcxCg/GH-020612-WHO-Malaria-Claims.aspx' title='The WHO has disputed a study published last week in the Lancet &quot;that claims nearly twice as many people are dying of malaria than current estimates,&quot; VOA News reports. The WHO &quot;says both its estimates of malaria deaths and those of the Lancet study are statistically the same for all groups in all regions,&quot; with one exception, VOA writes, noting, &quot;WHO spokesman Gregory Hartl says there&#039;s a notable statistical difference in regard to children over five and adults in Africa.&quot;'>WHO Disputes Study&#039;s Claims That Global Malaria Deaths Are Double Current Estimates</a></li>
<li><a class='post' href='http://feeds.kff.org/~r/kff/kdghpr/~3/lnDNPnFG3Lg/GH-020612-Sugar-Regulation.aspx' title='&quot;Sugar poses enough health risks that it should be considered a controlled substance just like alcohol and tobacco, contend a team of researchers from the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF),&quot; in an opinion piece called &quot;The Toxic Truth About Sugar,&quot; published in the journal Nature on Wednesday, TIME&#039;s &quot;Healthland&quot; blog reports (Rochman, 2/2). &quot;While acknowledging that food, unlike alcohol and tobacco, is required for survival, [authors Robert Lustig, Laura Schmidt and Claire Brindis] say taxes, zoning ordinances and even age limits for purchasing certain sugar-laden products are all appropriate remedies for what they see as a not-so-sweet problem,&quot; the Wall Street Journal&#039;s &quot;Health&quot; blog writes (Hobson, 2/2).'>Sugar Poses Significant Health Risks, Should Be Regulated Like Alcohol, U.S. Researchers Say</a></li>
