The Chinese Red Cross Foundation launched a healthcare program in 2006 to provide medical treatment to rural children with congenital heart disease.

Medical team work to combat heart disease brought on by low oxygen levels at high altitude

The Chinese Red Cross Foundation launched a healthcare program in 2006 to provide medical treatment to rural children with congenital heart disease.

The flagship hospital for the initiative was Mudanjiang Cardiovascular Hospital in Northeast China's Heilongjiang province.

Since 2015, the hospital has switched from a passive "waiting for patients" approach to an active "identifying potential patients" strategy, dispatching medical teams across more than 40 counties and cities in Heilongjiang, who have screened some 600,000 children.

In 2019, the scope expanded to the Xizang autonomous region. By the end of last year, the medical team had made nine trips to Xizang, screening over 87,000 children and performing surgery on 364.

On a recent mission to Xizang, the medical team escorted 17 children, who had been hospitalized, and their families back to their hometown of Shigatse city, Xizang.

Meanwhile, medical staff conducted follow-up examinations on patients with a focus on postoperative care. At the invitation of the health authorities in Gyalze and Saga counties in Shigatse, the team screened 2,432 children for congenital heart disease.

Zhang Ning, an inheritor of the provincial-level intangible cultural heritage Fushan paper cutting in Linfen city, Shanxi province, creates a series of paper-cut works based on the animated Chinese blockbuster Ne Zha 2. [Photo by Hao Haijun/For chinadaily.com.cn]




The exquisite red paper-cuttings feature the titular Ne Zha and other characters like Ao Bing and Taiyi Zhenren.



Zhang primarily uses specialized scissors to cut out his intricate designs, saving knives for fine details that require more dexterity.




"The artistic techniques of traditional paper-cutting need to continuously innovate and keep pace with the times," he said. "I hope that through my efforts, traditional culture can emit new and radiant light."
