It is now recognised that nearly one third of all people with diabetes worldwide are Chinese and that this disease is the third leading cause of death in China. In this special issue of the journal we publish articles covering a number of clinical and experimental studies of diabetes as well as metabolic diseases in China with the aim of helping the readers to better understand the overall picture of this disease in China.
