Special Collection: Child Health in China

China has the second largest population of children and has made major advances in reducing child poverty and mortality. There are, however, still large numbers of disadvantaged children, especially in the Western rural areas of China. This Special Collection, 'Child Health in China', seeks to inform clinical practice and experiences and highlight ways in which continued child poverty and mortality can be reduced, and child health improved.
