I-17.Reported percentage of young men aged 15-24 who both correctly identify ways of preventing the sexual transmission of HIV and who reject major misconceptions about HIV transmission. From surveys conducted 2004-2010.
I-18.Coverage of pregnant women living with HIV receiving antiretrovirals for preventing mother-to-child transmission.
I-19.The estimates of antiretroviral therapy coverage were calculated by dividing the number of people receiving antiretroviral therapy at the end of 2009 by the number of people estimated to need treatment in 2009 (based on UNAIDS/WHO methods).
I-20.The reported data on people currently receiving antiretroviral therapy, both in low- and middle-income countries and in high-income countries, were compiled from the most recent reports from health ministries or from other reliable sources.

I-25.Most countries have reported data for a full 12-month period in 2008 or 2009. For the countries with data reported for a period of less than 12 months, values were projected for a 12 month period.
I-26.A composite index measuring average achievement in three basic dimensions of human development - a long and healthy life, knowledge and a decent standard of living.
I-27.Measures the extent to which the distribution of income (or consumption) among individuals or households within a country deviates from a perfectly equal distribution. A value of 0 represents perfect equality, a value of 100 perfect inequality.
I-28.A measure that captures the loss in achievements due to gender disparities in the dimensions of reproductive health, empowerment and labour force participation. Values range from 0 (perfect equality) to 1 (total inequality).
I-29.The average number of years a newborn infant can expect to live under current mortality levels.
I-30.Probability of dying between birth and exactly one year of age, expressed per 1,000 live births.
I-31.Probability of dying between birth and exactly five years of age, expressed per 1,000 live births.
I-32.Number of deaths to women per 100,000 live births that result from conditions related to pregnancy, delivery, and related complications. These are consensus estimates of WHO, UNICEF, and UNFPA.
I-33.Based upon reasonable assumptions on the future course of fertility, mortality, and migration using official country projections, series issued by the U.N. or the U.S. Census Bureau, or PRB projections.
I-34.The birth rate minus the death rate, implying the annual rate of population growth without regard for migration.
I-35.Percentage of total population living in areas termed urban.
I-36.May be thought of as average income. GNI per capita (formerly GNP per capita) = gross national income, converted to U.S. dollars using the World Bank Atlas method (see below), divided by the midyear population. Gross national income = sum of value added by all resident producers plus any product taxes (less subsidies) not included in the valuation of output plus net receipts of primary income (compensation of employees and property income) from abroad. GNI, calculated in national currency, is usually converted to U.S. dollars at official exchange rates for comparisons across economies, although an alternative rate is used when the official exchange rate is judged to diverge by an exceptionally large margin from the rate actually applied in international transactions. To smooth fluctuations in prices and exchange rates, the World Bank uses the Atlas method, which applies a conversion factor that averages the exchange rate for a given year and the two preceding years, adjusted for differences in rates of inflation between the country and the G-5 countries (France, Germany, Japan, U.K., and U.S.).
I-37.GDP is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources. Data are in current U.S. dollars. Dollar figures for GDP are converted from domestic currencies using single year official exchange rates. For a few countries where the official exchange rate does not reflect the rate effectively applied to actual foreign exchange transactions, an alternative conversion factor is used.
I-38.The percentage of the population living below the poverty line deemed appropriate for a country by its authorities. National estimates are based on population-weighted subgroup estimates from household surveys. Data refer to the most recent year available during the period specified.
I-39.The percentage of the population living below $1.25 a day, adjusted for purchasing power parity. Data refer to the most recent year available during the period specified.
I-40.The sum of public and private expenditure (in US$ adjusted for purchasing power parity), divided by the population. Health expenditure includes the provision of health services (preventive and curative), family planning activities, nutrition activities and emergency aid designated for health, but excludes the provision of water and sanitation.
I-41.Includes graduates of a faculty or school of medicine who are working in any medical field (including teaching, research and practice). Data refer to the most recent year available during the period specified.
I-42.The percentage of deliveries attended by personnel (typically doctors, nurses and midwives) trained to give the necessary care, supervision and advice to women during pregnancy, labour and the postpartum period, to conduct deliveries on their own and to care for newborns. Data refer to the most recent year available during the period specified. Some countries may include deliveries by cadres of health workers other than doctors, nurses and midwives.
I-43.Percentage of children under five whose weight for age is below minus two standard deviations from median weight for age of NCHS/WHO reference population. Data refer to the most recent year available during the period specified.
I-44.Percentage of new, registered smear-positive (infectious) cases that were cured or in which a full-course treatment was completed. TB case notifications represent only a fraction of the true number of cases arising in a country because of incomplete coverage by health services, inaccurate diagnosis, or deficient recording and reporting.
I-45.1-year-old children immunized.
I-46.Percentage of infants that received three doses of diphtheria, pertussis (whooping cough) and tetanus vaccine.
I-47.Data from the United Nations Population Division. The measure indicates the number of children a woman would have during her reproductive years if she bore children at the rate estimated for different age groups in the specified time period. Countries may reach the projected level at different points within the period.
I-48.This is an indicator of the burden of fertility on young women. Since it is an annual level summed over all women in the age cohort, it does not reflect fully the level of fertility for women during their youth. Since it indicates the annual average number of births per woman per year, one could multiply it by five to approximate the number of births to 1,000 young women during their late teen years. The measure does not indicate the full dimensions of teen pregnancy as only live births are included in the numerator. Stillbirths and spontaneous or induced abortions are not reflected. Data are originally from the United Nations Population Division
I-49.The percentage of all women who give birth before their 18th birthday. In countries where only ever-married women are surveyed, data on out-of-wedlock births is not available.
I-50.Number of children enrolled in primary school, regardless of age, expressed as a percentage of the total number of children of official primary school age.
I-51.Number of children enrolled in secondary school, regardless of age, expressed as a percentage of the total number of children of official secondary school age.
