Health is the cornerstone of human comprehensive development and the foundation of people's happiness and well-being. It is also an important indicator of the progress of national and social civilization. In recent years, the burden of chronic diseases is escalating worldwide. Many health issues need interdisciplinary and international cooperation to build a "community of shared future for mankind".
