Solution

The correct option is A Rise in missing cases
The correct answer is Option A. It gives the central idea of the article and follows the norms of the headline writing. Option B is incorrect as headlines do not end with a full stop. Option C is incorrect as articles are generally dropped in a headline. Option D is incorrect due to improper use of tense, as perfect tense is generally not used in headlines.
