Pursuing a collective dream, all for children %K %X Pediatrics is the branch of medicine that is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment for infants, children and adolescents (1). The word “pediatrics” meaning “healer of children” derives from two Greek words: “pais” (child) and “iatros” (healer). Children are the future and hope of mankind, and the safety, survival and development of children, therefore, are prerequisites for human progress. However, environmental change, genetic variation and unhealthy lifestyle put children in jeopardy. For pediatricians, efforts to promote the health of children have been directed at attending to the needs of particular children and providing them with better medical services (2). %U https://pm.amegroups.org/article/view/4342 %V 1 %P %@ 2617-5428
