These findings could be used to inform risk-based surveillance aimed at identifying high-risk locations and time-periods during which more intensive control measures can be implemented.
However, there is ample indirect evidence that invitation methods increase uptake, and there are also randomized and other studies showing that more intensive invitation measures and the involvement of general practitioners in the invitation process lead to greater uptake [ 21- 25].
Hygiene is about applying common sense.' However, most teachers thought that during a major public health threat like an influenza pandemic there would be sufficient opportunity to temporarily enforce much more intensive hygiene measures.
The improved treatment outcomes could also be linked to the overall success in TB control achieved in China due to increased government commitment and more intensive TB control measures such as covering the WHO Directly Observed Therapy Short-Course (DOTS) strategy nationwide, strengthening local public health facilities and national infrastructure [2].
More intensive cardiovascular protection measures are recommended for older patients with longstanding diabetes regardless of their CVD history, particularly with regard to pharmacotherapy for lipid control [ 9, 10].

Such management may be more successful if focused on supportive measures and more intensive glucose control, rather than family planning (11).
Overall, the effect of more intensive glucose-control strategies on measures of renal status obtained in this comparative effectiveness research analysis is consistent with the results of ACCORD and ADVANCE, supporting the notion that the microvascular results of those studies may apply to a broad group of adults with diabetes.
CMA-based measures are easier to compute than CMG-based measures and make no assumptions about patterns of medication use, whereas CMG measures are computationally more intensive and assume that medications, once dispensed, are used as directed.
