“…The need for more and better trained general practitioners is central to many recent policy statements in China (57). Sun et al (58) in this Frontiers Special Topic Chronic Illness and Aging in China present a strong argument for the training of general practitioners in China in behavior change and chronic illness management in order to prevent and manage behavioral risk factors in chronic illness. Wang et al (57) in an analysis of community nurse training courses asked nurses to rank the importance and the utility of various topics.…”

Population aging has brought about a number of challenges to public health and primary health care systems due to increases in the prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). As a country with one of the largest populations globally, China is confronting a rising number of chronic NCDs including cardiometabolic related conditions. This mini-review investigates the link between NCDs and cognitive impairment through common risk factors. Identifying risk factors is important for the prevention and management of these chronic conditions. In addition, this review also identifies the role of primary health care services in reducing behavioral risk factors for NCDs and cognitive impairment. Addressing shared determinants and pathways is important in the design of public health interventions and primary health care services in China. Monitoring and management of NCD biomarkers and behavioral risk factors may also be beneficial for cognitive health among older Chinese.

Objective. To explore the change in the medical serviceability of primary hospitals since the establishment of the Huzhou No. 1 People’s Hospital medical care group incorporating the integrated delivery system. Methods. With reference to the “Grade Evaluation Standard of General Hospitals in Zhejiang Province” and the “Guidelines for Service Capacity Evaluation of Township Hospitals (2019 Edition),” we analyzed the influence of the integrated delivery system on the capacity of primary medical services and selected the targeted core indicators. From the four dimensions of diagnosis and treatment breadth, diagnosis and treatment efficiency, surgical ability, and patient satisfaction, an index evaluation system was established to explore the changes in the medical serviceability in primary hospitals. Results. The measurements were aimed at four specific issues, that is, the low medical technology level of grassroots personnel, the poor information communication among medical institutions, the difficulty in recruiting people, and the imperfect training mechanism in primary hospitals. After establishing a series of measurements related to the problems faced by the primary healthcare sector in China, the score of breadth of diagnosis and treatment, efficiency of diagnosis and treatment ability, surgical ability, and patient satisfaction of the primary hospitals in our medical group have greatly increased. Conclusion. The integrated delivery system improved the primary hospitals’ medical health ability obviously. Our study also provides various useful and operable suggestions for primary healthcare.

Sport has been recognized as an essential tool for the implementation of the SDGs by The Agenda 2030 for sustainable development. The Chinese government has launched a Healthy China 2030 plan in response to the health-related SDGs. The Chinese government has introduced different kinds of measures under Healthy China 2030 plan to achieve health-related SDGs through sport and physical activity. The Healthy China program is compatible with SDGs regarding health, sport, and physical activity. After introducing the program with sustainable built environment intervention for sport and physical activity, the elderly population of China is participating in sport and physical activity to improve the national fitness level and prevent NCDs. Sport is playing a vital role in preventing NCDs in the shape of increasing physical activity among the Chinese people. Sports and physical activity play a crucial role in the implementation of health-related SDGs and further help in the achievement of "Healthy China" 2030 goal. China's localization policies for the realization of SDGs have a global impact through glocalization in the BRI participant's countries and supporting them to make their public health system secure and promoting global health governance.
