In 2024, the average number of children born per 1,000 people in China ranged at ****. The birth rate has dropped considerably since 2016, and the number of births fell below the number of deaths in 2022 for the first time in decades, leading to a negative population growth rate. Recent development of the birth rate Similar to most East-Asian countries and territories, demographics in China today are characterized by a very low fertility rate. As low fertility in the long-term limits economic growth and leads to heavy strains on the pension and health systems, the Chinese government decided to support childbirth by gradually relaxing strict birth control measures, that had been in place for three decades. However, the effect of this policy change was considerably smaller than expected. The birth rate increased from **** births per 1,000 inhabitants in 2010 to ***** births in 2012 and remained on a higher level for a couple of years, but then dropped again to a new low in 2018. This illustrates that other factors constrain the number of births today. These factors are most probably similar to those experienced in other developed countries as well: women preferring career opportunities over maternity, high costs for bringing up children, and changed social norms, to name only the most important ones. Future demographic prospects Between 2020 and 2023, the birth rate in China dropped to formerly unknown lows, most probably influenced by the coronavirus pandemic. As all COVID-19 restrictions were lifted by the end of 2022, births figures showed a catch-up effect in 2024. However, the scope of the rebound might be limited. A population breakdown by five-year age groups indicates that the drop in the number of births is also related to a shrinking number of people with child-bearing age. The age groups between 15 and 29 years today are considerably smaller than those between 30 and 44, leaving less space for the birth rate to increase. This effect is exacerbated by a considerable gender gap within younger age groups in China, with the number of females being much lower than that of males.

In 2024, around **** million babies were born in China. The number of births has increased slightly from **** million in the previous year, but is much lower than the ***** million births recorded in 2016. Demographic development in China In 2022, the Chinese population decreased for the first time in decades, and population decline is expected to accelerate in the upcoming years. To curb the negative effects of an aging population, the Chinese government decided in 2013 to gradually relax the so called one-child-policy, which had been in effect since 1979. From 2016 onwards, parents in China were allowed to have two children in general. However, as the recent figures of births per year reveal, this policy change had only short-term effects on the general birth rate: the number of births slightly increased from 2014 onwards, but then started to fell again in 2018. In 2024, China was the second most populous country in the world, overtaken by India that year. China’s aging population The Chinese society is aging rapidly and facing a serious demographic shift towards older age groups. The median age of China’s population has increased massively from about ** years in 1970 to **** years in 2020 and is projected to rise continuously until 2080. In 2020, approximately **** percent of the Chinese were 60 years and older, a figure that is forecast to rise as high as ** percent by 2060. This shift in demographic development will increase social and elderly support expenditure of the society as a whole. One measure for this social imbalance is the old-age dependency ratio, measuring the relationship between economic dependent older age groups and the working-age population. The old-age dependency ratio in China is expected to soar to ** percent in 2060, implying that by then three working-age persons will have to support two elderly persons.

In China, the crude birth rate in 1930 was just under 39 live births per thousand people, meaning that 3.9 percent of the population had been born in that year. The crude birth rate dropped gradually over the next fifteen years, however it then rose to it's highest recorded figure by 1955. Between 1945 and 1950, the Second World War ended and the Chinese Civil War was finally coming to an end, and during this time the crude birth rate rose to almost 47 births per thousand in individual years. The crude birth rate dropped again in the late 1950s, as Chairman Mao's 'Great Leap Forward' failed to industrialize the nation, and resulted in a famine which killed an estimated 45 million people. The 1960s saw some recovery, where the figures rose from 36.4 to 39.5 births per thousand in this decade, however two-child and one-child policies were introduced in the 1970s and 80s, in an attempt to slow China's rapidly growing population. These measures led to the decline of the birth rate, dropping below fifteen births per thousand at the turn of the millennium. From 2000 until now the decline of China's crude birth rate has slowed, falling by just 2.8 births per thousand over the past twenty years, and it is expected to be just below twelve in 2020.

In 2024, the mortality rate in China ranged at approximately 7.76 deaths per 1,000 inhabitants. The mortality rate in China displayed an uneven development over the last two decades. This is mainly related to the very uneven sizes of Chinese age groups, improvements in health care, and the occurrence of epidemics. However, an overall growing trend is undisputable and related to China's aging population. As the share of the population aged 60 and above will be growing significantly over the upcoming two decades, the mortality rate will further increase in the years ahead. Population in China China was the second most populous country in the world in 2024. However, due to several mechanisms put into place by the Chinese government as well as changing circumstances in the working and social environment of the Chinese people, population growth has subsided over the past decades and finally turned negative in 2022. The major factor for this development was a set of policies introduced by the Chinese government in 1979, including the so-called one-child policy, which was intended to improve people’s living standards by limiting the population growth. However, with the decreasing birth rate and slower population growth, China nowadays is facing the problems of a rapidly aging population. Birth control in China According to the one-child policy, a married couple was only allowed to have one child. Only under certain circumstances were parents allowed to have a second child. As the performance of family control had long been related to the assessment of local government’s achievements, violations of the rule were severely punished. The birth control in China led to a decreasing birth rate and a more skewed gender ratio of new births due to a widely preference for male children in the Chinese society. Nowadays, since China’s population is aging rapidly, the one-child policy has been re-considered as an obstacle for the country’s further economic development. Since 2014, the one-child policy has been gradually relaxed and fully eliminated at the end of 2015. In May 2021, a new three-child policy has been introduced. However, many young Chinese people today are not willing to have more children due to high costs of raising a child, especially in urban areas.

BackgroundThe global prevalence of infertility is 9%, with male factors potentially accounting for 40% to 60% of cases. Conventional treatments can be ineffective, invasive, costly, and linked to adverse effects and high risks. Previous studies have shown that, Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) can regulate the hypothalamus-pituitary-testis axis, improve sperm abnormalities and quality, mitigate oxidative stress, and decrease DNA fragmentation index (DFI). Yet, the evidence backing the use of Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) for treating male factor infertility lacks conviction due to study design limitations, and there remains a scarcity of studies on the live birth rate following CHM treatment for male factor infertility. Here, we describe the rationale and design of a randomized waitlist-controlled trial to evaluate the effect of CHM on the live birth rate among males with infertility.MethodsThis study is a single-center, randomized, waitlist-controlled study. A total of 250 couples diagnosed with male factor infertility will be enrolled in this study and then randomly allocated into two groups in a 1:1 ratio. Male participants in CHM group (treatment group) will receive CHM once a day for 3 months. Male participants in the waitlist group (control group) will not receive any treatment for 3 months. After 3 months, participants in both groups need to be followed up for another 12 months. The primary outcome will be the live birth rate; secondary outcomes include semen quality parameters, DFI and pregnancy related outcomes. Safety will also be assessed.DiscussionThe purpose of this trial is to explore the effects and safety of CHM on the live birth rate among couples dealing with male factor infertility. The outcome of this trial may provide a viable treatment option for male factor infertility.Trial registrationChinese Clinical Trial Registry: ChiCTR2200064416.

Baby Daily Necessities Market Outlook

The global baby daily necessities market size was valued at approximately USD 10 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to grow to around USD 18 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period. This remarkable growth can be attributed to several factors, including increasing parental expenditure on baby care, rising awareness of baby hygiene, and the surging birth rates in certain regions, which collectively drive the demand for baby daily necessities.

One of the primary growth factors in the baby daily necessities market is the rising focus on infant health and hygiene. Parents today are more aware and concerned about the health and well-being of their infants, which has led to a significant rise in the consumption of high-quality baby care products. This trend is further propelled by the increasing disposable incomes in developing economies, enabling parents to spend more on premium baby products. Additionally, advanced marketing strategies and the availability of a wide range of baby care products across various retail channels contribute to market growth.

Technological advancements in product development are also playing a pivotal role in the market's expansion. Manufacturers are investing heavily in research and development to introduce innovative and safer baby products. For instance, the development of eco-friendly diapers and organic baby skincare products has gained traction among eco-conscious parents. Such advancements not only cater to the growing demand for sustainable products but also enhance the overall safety and effectiveness of baby care items, thus boosting their popularity and sales.

Furthermore, the increasing penetration of e-commerce platforms is significantly influencing the baby daily necessities market. Online retail channels offer a convenient shopping experience, a wide range of options, and competitive pricing, making them a preferred choice for many parents. The COVID-19 pandemic has further accelerated this shift towards online shopping, as parents seek to minimize exposure to the virus by avoiding physical stores. The ease of access to product information, customer reviews, and home delivery options provided by e-commerce platforms is expected to sustain this trend post-pandemic, thereby driving market growth.

Regionally, Asia Pacific holds a dominant position in the baby daily necessities market, driven by high birth rates in countries like India and China, coupled with increasing urbanization and rising disposable incomes. North America and Europe also represent significant markets due to the high standards of living and strong consumer awareness regarding baby care products. Conversely, regions like Latin America and the Middle East & Africa are expected to witness moderate growth due to economic constraints and varying levels of market penetration.

Product Type Analysis

The baby daily necessities market can be segmented by product type into diapers, baby wipes, baby skincare products, baby feeding products, baby clothing, and others. Diapers represent one of the largest segments due to their essential role in infant care. The market for diapers is driven by convenience, improvements in absorbency, and the availability of eco-friendly options. Parents are increasingly opting for premium diapers that offer better comfort and hygiene for their babies, contributing to the segment's growth.

Baby wipes are another critical segment, growing in importance due to their versatile use in maintaining baby hygiene. The demand for baby wipes is fueled by their convenience, safety, and ability to prevent skin irritation and infections. Innovations in baby wipes, such as the introduction of biodegradable and organic variants, cater to environmentally conscious consumers and further drive segment growth. The increasing awareness of the importance of maintaining baby hygiene accelerates the adoption of these products.

Baby skincare products, including lotions, powders, and creams, form a significant segment in the baby daily necessities market. Growing parental concern over baby skin health has led to a surge in demand for products that are free from harmful chemicals and are dermatologically tested. The trend towards organic and natural ingredients in baby skincare products is gaining momentum, as parents seek to minimize the risk of allergies and skin condi

In 2024, approximately ******* births and ******* deaths of the total resident population were registered in Shanghai municipality in China. Despite the gradual relaxation of the one-child policy and its final abolition in 2016, the number of births in China did not increase sustainably. The birth rate in Shanghai declined considerably in recent years, while the death rate is increasing gradually and will further grow in the future due to the aging of the society.
