Malnutrition is directly responsible for 300,000 deaths
per year in children younger than 5 years in developing
countries and contributes indirectly to over half the deaths in
childhood worldwide.
The adverse effects of malnutrition include physical and
developmental manifestations. Poor weight gain and slowing of
linear growth occur. Impairment of immunologic functions in
these .....(15)..... mimics those observed in children with AIDS,
predisposing them to opportunistic and other typical childhood
infections. Children who are chronically malnourished exhibit
behavioral changes, including irritability, apathy and decreased
social responsiveness, anxiety, and attention deficits. In
addition, infants and young children who have malnutrition
frequently demonstrate developmental delay or permanent
cognitive deficits. The degree of delay and deficit depends on
the severity and duration of nutritional compromise and the age
at which malnutrition occurs. In general, nutritional insults at
younger ages will have worse outcomes. .....(16)..... death from
malnutrition in the United States is rare, in developing countries,
more than 50% of the 10 million deaths each year are either
directly or indirectly secondary to malnutrition in children
younger than 5 years.
Children are most vulnerable to the effects of
malnutrition in infancy and early childhood. Premature infants
have special nutritional needs that are not met with traditional
feeding recommendations; they require fortified human milk or
specially designed preterm formula until later in infancy. Children
are susceptible to malnutrition for differing reasons. During
adolescence, self-imposed dietary restrictions contribute to the
incidence of nutritional deficiencies.

WTO Complaint Against U.S. Corn Grows
DAVOS, Switzerland -- The European Union, Australia, Argentina and Brazil have joined Canada in a complaint against the United States over what they claim are illegal government handouts to American corn growers, trade officials said Monday. The request for consultations, filed by the four trading powers and others at the Geneva-based World Trade Organization, threatens a major commercial dispute at a time when global free trade talks remain stalled over agricultural tariffs and subsidies and the U.S. begins debating a new multibillion-dollar farm bill. Under WTO rules, a three-month consultation period is required before a country can ask the trade body to launch a formal investigation. AWTO case can result in punitive sanctions being authorized, but panels take many months, and sometimes years, to reach a decision.
Canada lodged its complaint on Jan. 8, claiming that some $9 billion paid out by the U.S. annually in export credit guarantees and other subsidies unfairly and illegally deflated international corn prices.
"This is not just about corn," said Clodoaldo Hugueney, Brazilian ambassador to the WTO. "Brazil is the world's largest ethanol exporter, so this is an important issue for us."
Hugueney said any country's large subsidy program concerns Brazil as a major agriculture exporter. (…)
The WTO, in a case brought by Brazil, already has ruled that some cotton subsidies are illegal and the administration of U.S. President George W. Bush has been coming under pressure to reform a number of its farm support programs.
"Many of the issues in Canada's complaint we have also complained about concerning U.S. cotton programs," said Hugueney in a telephone interview from Geneva.
Canada's complaint over U.S. corn support also challenged whether the billions of dollars in overall farm subsidies paid out by the U.S. government comply with international commerce rules.
It argued that U.S. subsidy levels for a number of years on farm products including wheat, sugar and soybeans were illegal and urged Washington to address its concerns when drafting the farm bill that will set out American agricultural support programs for the next five years.
The U.S. says it has offered cuts as part of the WTO's global free trade talks, but others have called the pledges largely artificial, addressing only permitted levels of government subsidies and failing to cut what Washington actually gives to its farmers.

Paulo César Nóbrega is one of 40 milion people living with HIV/AIDS. This is story:
Like most young people of my generation, I started using drugs as an adolescent. By the time I was 16, I was taking cannabis, hallucinogens and injecting drugs. Soon, my addiction led me to drug trafficking. Between 1985 and 1993, I was imprisoned in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, where I was diagnosed HIV-positive.
Initially, I was shocked. But I didn't really know what HIV or AIDS were, which is why I continued using drugs and sharing needles with other inmates. We received no guidance or preventive care.
In prison, AIDS first manifested itself through tuberculosis, an illness I suffered from three times. Although I was eventually given anti-retroviral medicines, I continued taking drugs and only restarted the treatment in earnest after abandoning drugs for good in 1999.
At that time, I was a member of a support group in my hometown, the coastal city of São Vicente, and was close to other HIV-positive people. We soon decided to establish the Hipupiara NGO to promote a sense of unity among people living with HIV and to improve their quality of life.
Unfortunately, I suffered a lot of prejudice for being HIV-positive, including from members of my family. I was also denied jobs. Then, in 2001, I started working as a fisherman, a job I retired from in 2005, at 50, due to poor health.
Today, I am free of drugs and am sticking to the treatment. I work as a volunteer for Hipupiara, contacting drug users in the city and referring them to treatment and assistance services.
Thanks to all the information I have accumulated about HIV/AIDS, I can now face and beat prejudice. People infected with HIV and drug users should not close up or avoid talking about their problems; we should help each other so that we can all lead a better life.
