Background: Community participation has the potential to improve the effects of interventions and reduce inequalities in child growth. Multidimensional indicators capture such effects and inequalities. Objectives: The objective of this study was to measure the association between multidimensional child growth and community participation in 2 nutrition-sensitive interventions. Methods: A Multidimensional Index of Child Growth was calculated with the 5-y-old cohort of the Vietnam Young Lives Survey.
An Article in support of SDGs 3 and 13, investigating the effect of climate change on malaria transmission across different geographical regions
The treatment of achalasia is continuously improved for the development of technology, but each treatment has its own advantages and disadvantages. After a network meta-analysis of different treatment for achalasia, this study found that application of anterior peroral endoscopic myotomy was the best treatment to improve achalasia symptoms in a 12-month follow up but had high risk of gastroesophageal reflux disease. This study supports SDG 3 Good health and wellbeing.
In the journey towards attaining the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), large scale organic farming has emerged as a strategy of increasing significance.
Phthalates are used in plastic production to make plastic products more durable, but they can reliease toxic pollutants via airborne that cause varios metabolic disorders. This research article evaluates the potential health benefits in terms of reducing metabolic disorders (e.g. diabetes & obesity) via strengthening the standards on the use of phthalates in China, the world's leading markets of phthalates.
The study offers insights into the relationship between eye-level greenspace and hypertension, revealing a negative association among Chinese females, especially in socioeconomically disadvantaged groups.

Background: Air pollution is a risk factor for poor cognitive function, while a plant-based dietary pattern is associated with better cognitive function. We aimed to explore their interaction with cognitive function among older adults. Methods: We used a prospective cohort of old individuals, including 6525 participants of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS), aged 65-110 years and with normal cognition at baseline. Air pollution measurement was derived using satellite-derived annual average fine particulate matter (PM2.5) concentrations based on residential locations.
