The Colorado Trust’s Healthy Communities Initiative: Results and Lessons for Comprehensive Community Initiatives
No full text· This article summarizes how 29 diverse communities throughout Colorado implemented the Colorado Healthy Communities Initiative (CHCI), which was conceived and funded by The Colorado Trust to engage community residents in the development of locally relevant strategies to improve community health.
· In line with the World Health Organization’s Healthy Cities model, CHCI emphasized (a) inclusive, representative planning; (b) a broad definition of “health”; (c) consensus decision making; and (d) capacity building among local stakeholder groups.
· Communities implemented an array of projects (on average, six per community) that extended well beyond traditional health promotion and disease prevention. The most common action projects focused on community problem solving, civic engagement, and youth development. Many of the grantees established projects or new institutions that had a long-term community impact.
· Key success factors for CHCI included (a) a wellspecified planning model, (b) a planning process facilitated by expert consultants, (c) a unifying “healthy community” vision developed at the beginning of the process by diverse stakeholders, (d) a willingness by stakeholders to work collaboratively to define “key performance areas” and then to implement “action projects” to achieve them, and (e) an appropriate level of funding for implementation ($50,000 per site per year).
· The outcomes and impacts of CHCI might have been improved by better anticipating the requirements for sustaining the energy and work initiated during the planning process.
· At the end of the initiative, CHCI provided the funders with a broader, deeper understanding of the requirements, opportunities, and realities associated with promoting “community health.

The relationship between price of tobacco and smoking
No full textThesis (Master's)--University of Washington, 2014University of Washington Abstract The relationship between price of tobacco and smoking Ruben Conner Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Acting Assistant Professor Joe Dieleman Global Health Department Background: Tobacco is well documented as being extremely harmful to health. Prior studies have shown that the price of cigarettes can be one of the best deterrents from smoking. However, most studies have taken place only in high income countries. I assemble a large panel dataset that includes low/middle countries and analyze the effect of price on smoking. Methods: Our overall goal is to estimate the price elasticity of tobacco. To do this, I employ two main models: a within-between estimator and a first difference model. The within-between estimator allows us to see the effect of cigarettes both cross-sectionally and within specific countries. The first difference model is excellent for looking at change over time but shows only the effect within countries. Results: Across countries, I find an elasticity of -.19, equivalent to a -1.9% decrease in consumption for a 10% increase in price. This cross-sectional estimate is slightly lower than estimates by other studies. I do not find a within country effect using multiple specifications of the model. We also do not find significant results for models that use prevalence rather than consumption as an outcome. Conclusion: We have found estimates for the price elasticity of tobacco that are lower than other studies. However, our analysis is hampered by a short panel and a lack of variation between countries

George Zachos, the first author in this paper, said: “I was informed that an investigation by the University of Glasgow found that the Western blots shown in Fig. 1, 2, and 4 contain duplications; as such, the data and its interpretation are misleading and unreliable. Given the age of the publication the original full blots are no longer available. For these reasons, we retract the article and apologize for the inconvenience it may have caused to the readers.”
