Editorial Introduction
The June 2014 issue of China Health Review includes an interview with Dr. Belton Fleisher (Executive Editor, the China Economic Review), a research article on the positive externality of smoking cessation, an article on the application of Innovative Care for Chronic Conditions (ICCC) to China’s diabetes management, in addition to the other usual sections.
In Interview section, Dr. Belton Fleisher, Executive Editor of the China Economic Review, outlined the features and direction of the journal and advised Chinese scholars on manuscript preparation.
In Research Article section, Dr. Donglan Zhang and Dr. Lu Shi developed a hypothetical intervention experiment and provided insight for the potential impact of reducing active smoking prevalence on passive smoking prevalence. By considering the positive externality of smoking cessation, public health stakeholders could enhance the return on health investment and strategize their approaches to design tobacco control programs. The other article in this section, authored by Dr. Chien-Ching Li, discussed the feasibility and potential of application of ICCC framework to China’s diabetes management based on an integrative multi-level literature review, and provided suggestions on how ICCC framework can serve as the conceptual basis for chronic conditions situation analysis and health care system design in China. Both articles were Honorable Mentions of the 2013 CHPAMS Best Papers Award.
