BackgroundFalls among older adults are a significant challenge to global healthy aging. Identifying key factors and differences in fall risks, along with developing predictive models, is essential for differentiated and precise interventions in China’s urban and rural older populations.MethodsThe data of 5,876 older adults were obtained from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Survey (Waves 2015 and 2018). A total of 87 baseline input variables were considered as candidate features. Predictive models for fall risk over the next 3 years among urban and rural older populations were developed using five machine learning algorithms. Logistic regression analysis was employed to identify key factors influencing falls in these populations.ResultsThe fall incidence among older adults was 22.4%, with 23.2% in rural areas and 20.9% in urban areas. Common risk factors across both settings include gender, age, fall history, sleep duration, activities of daily living questionnaire scores, memory status, and chair stand test time. In rural areas, additional risks include being unmarried, having diabetes, heart disease, memory-related medication use, and living in houses built 6–20 years ago. For urban, liver disease, arthritis, physical disabilities, depressive symptoms, weak hand strength, poor relations with children, and digestive medication use are significant risk factors while living in a tidy environment is protective. Random Forest models achieved the highest AUC-ROC and sensitivity in both rural (AUC = 0.732, 95% CI: 0.69–0.78; sensitivity = 0.669) and urban (AUC = 0.734, 95% CI: 0.68–0.79; sensitivity = 0.754) areas. Decision curve analysis confirmed the model’s clinical utility across a range of threshold probabilities. Key predictors included prior experience of falling, gender, and chair stand test performance in rural areas, while in urban areas, experience of falling, gender, and age were the most influential features.ConclusionThe key factors influencing falls among older people differ between urban and rural areas, and the predictive models effectively identify high-risk populations in both settings. This facilitates targeted prevention and precise interventions, supporting healthy aging in China.

We posit that autocrats introduce local elections when their bureaucratic capacity is low. Local elections exploit the citizens' informational advantage in keeping local officials accountable, but they also weaken vertical control. As bureaucratic capacity increases, the autocrat limits the role of elected bodies to regain vertical control. We argue that these insights can explain the introduction of village elections in rural China and the subsequent erosion of village autonomy years later. We construct a novel dataset to document political reforms, policy outcomes and de facto power for almost four decades. We find that the introduction of elections improves popular policies and weakens unpopular ones. Increases in regional government resources lead to loss of village autonomy, but less so in remote villages. These patterns are consistent with an organizational view of local elections within autocracies.

According to preliminary figures, the growth of real gross domestic product (GDP) in China amounted to 5.0 percent in 2024. For 2025, the IMF expects a GDP growth rate of around 3.95 percent. Real GDP growth The current gross domestic product is an important indicator of the economic strength of a country. It refers to the total market value of all goods and services that are produced within a country per year. When analyzing year-on-year changes, the current GDP is adjusted for inflation, thus making it constant. Real GDP growth is regarded as a key indicator for economic growth as it incorporates constant GDP figures. As of 2024, China was among the leading countries with the largest gross domestic product worldwide, second only to the United States which had a GDP volume of almost 29.2 trillion U.S. dollars. The Chinese GDP has shown remarkable growth over the past years. Upon closer examination of the distribution of GDP across economic sectors, a gradual shift from an economy heavily based on industrial production towards an economy focused on services becomes visible, with the service industry outpacing the manufacturing sector in terms of GDP contribution. Key indicator balance of trade Another important indicator for economic assessment is the balance of trade, which measures the relationship between imports and exports of a nation. As an economy heavily reliant on manufacturing and industrial production, China has reached a trade surplus over the last decade, with a total trade balance of around 992 billion U.S. dollars in 2024.

BackgroundFalls and depressive symptoms are both public health concerns in China, but the effects of depressive symptoms on falls and injurious falls have not been thoroughly investigated.MethodsThis population-based prospective cohort study used data derived from adults aged ≥45 years acquired from the 2015 and 2018 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. Data were analyzed from August 2021 to December 2021. Self-reported depressive symptoms were determined using a 10-item Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression scale (CESD-10) with a total score range of 0–30. Item responses of 3–4 or 5–7 days were deemed indicative of specific depressive symptoms. The outcome variables were self-reported accidental falls and injurious falls.ResultsOf the 12,392 participants included in the study, 3,671 (29.6%) had high baseline depressive symptoms (CESD-10 scores ≥ 10), 1,892 (15.3%) experienced falls, and 805 (6.5%) experienced injurious falls during 2015–2018 follow-up. High depressive symptoms increased the risk of falls [odds ratio (OR) 1.34, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.19–1.50] and injurious falls (OR 1.28, 95% CI 1.09–1.51) in a multivariable logistic regression model adjusted for major demographic, health-related, and anthropometric covariates. All of the 10 specific depressive symptoms except “felt hopeless” were associated with falls, and four specific symptoms significantly increased the risk of injurious falls; “had trouble concentrating” (OR 1.32, 95% CI 1.13–1.55); “felt depressed” (OR 1.32, 95% CI 1.12–1.55); “everything was an effort” (OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.04–1.45); and “restless sleep” (OR 1.18, 95% CI 1.02–1.40).ConclusionHigh depressive symptoms are significantly related to risk of falls and injurious falls. Four specific symptoms (had trouble concentrating, felt depressed, everything was an effort, and restless sleep) increase the risk of injurious falls in Chinese adults aged ≥ 45 years.
