Social epidemiology is a branch of epidemiology that focuses particularly on the effects of social-structural factors on states of health. Social epidemiology assumes that the distribution of advantages and disadvantages in a society reflects the distribution of health and disease. It proposes to identify societal characteristics that affect the pattern of disease and health distribution in a society and to understand its mechanisms. The central and initial question of social epidemiology to be answered is what effect do social factors have on individual and population health. 2, record 1, English, - social%20epidemiology

Tradable permits have been proposed as an alternative to the tax. There are two main possibilities :(i) estimating "reasonable" emissions country by country and establishing commensurate quotas or(ii) distributing tradable rights in accordance with some "equitably" criterion, such as equal emissions per capita(a possibility that has actually been discussed). Depending on how restrictive the aggregate of such tradable emission rights might be, the latter is tantamount to distributing trillions of dollars in discounted value and making, for a country like Nigeria, the outcome of its population census the country's major economic policy. If, instead, quotas are negotiated to correspond to every country's currently "reasonable" emissions level, they will surely be renegotiated every 5 or 10 years, and selling an emissions right will be perceived as evidence that a quota was initially too generous. It is unlikely that governments will engage in trades that acknowledge excessive initial quotas. 1, record 3, English, - tradable%20emission%20rights

The Children's Oral Health Initiative(COHI) was developed as a means to address the disparity between the oral health of First Nations and Inuit and that of the general Canadian population. COHI was launched on a test basis in Fall 2004. COHI focuses on the prevention of dental disease and promotion of good oral health practices. The goal of COHI is to shift the emphasis from a primarily treatment based approach to a more balanced prevention and treatment focus. The initial focus for oral health promotion will be directed at three target groups : pregnant women and primary caregivers; pre-school children, 0-4 years of age; and school children, 5-7 years of age. Health Canada expects that the COHI, once fully implemented in subsequent years, will result in significant improvement of the oral health in First Nations and Inuit. 1, record 4, English, - Children%26rsquo%3Bs%20Oral%20Health%20Initiative

L'ISBE, se concentre sur un programme plus équilibré de prévention et de traitement préventif plutôt que sur le traitement primaire même. La promotion de la santé buccodentaire s'adressera initialement aux trois groupes cibles suivants : les femmes enceintes et les principaux pourvoyeurs de soins; les enfants en âge préscolaire de 0 à 4 ans; les enfants en âge scolaire de 5 à 7 ans.

Le sens dépend de la répartition initiale (historique ou définie comme condition de référence) de l'espèce. Une espèce dont l'aire naturelle est très limitée (laissant penser qu'il s'agit d'une population relique ou ayant des besoins très particuliers en matière d'habitat) ne peut pas supporter un même pourcentage de réduction de son habitat qu'une espèce largement disséminée. Par conséquent, une fraction modeste peut correspondre à la majorité de l'aire existante, dans le cas d'une population relique, et à un pourcentage moindre de l'aire historique, dans le cas d'une espèce très répandue et possédant de grosses populations. 1, record 10, French, - fraction%20modeste

El sentido depende de la distribución inicial (histórica o definida como condición de referencia) de la especie. Una especie cuya distribución natural es muy limitada (al punto de que hace pensar que se trata de una población relicto o con requerimientos de hábitat muy particulares) no puede tolerar el mismo porcentaje de reducción de su hábitat que una especie de distribución amplia. Por lo tanto, una "pequeña parte" puede corresponder a la mayor parte del área de distribución existente en el caso de una población relicto, y a un porcentaje menor del área histórica de distribución, en el caso de una especie que posee amplia distribución y grandes poblaciones. 1, record 10, Spanish, - peque%C3%B1a%20parte
