BBC NEWS | Asia-Pacific | China birth defects 'up sharply'

China has experienced a 40% rise in birth defects between 2001 and 2006, from 104.9 to 145.5 birth defects per 10,000 births. It is believed that the rise in birth defects is linked to environmental pollution from China's rapidly growing industrial complex.
