  Abstract: Objective: To describe the publication of China-related domestic and English articles in the field of health policy and systems research (HPSR) from 2008 to 2017, to analyze the capacity and challenges, and to propose the development of HPSR in China. Methods: English articles were searched based on the search terms provided by the International Health Policy Program of Thailand in three databases: Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science. For domestic articles, China related HPSR articles published in Chinese Health Economics and Chinese Journal of Health Policy from 2008 to 2017 were included. Results: 1 488 English articles and 3 227 domestic articles were included in this study. From 2008 to 2017, the number of China-related HPSR articles increased from 72 in 2008 to 244 in 2017. In both domestic and English articles, the top five “Project 985” universities which authors affiliated contributed far more than others. The research hotspots of domestic and English articles were highly consistent, and they all exhibited the characteristics of health policy and health system in China. The number of funded HPSR articles increased. The proportion of funded domestic articles increased from 35.06% to 68.75% and the proportion of funded English articles increased from 47.22% to 68.03%. The proportion of domestic funded research increased significantly. Conclusion: During the past ten years, China-related HPSR articles has grown rapidly, and the research capacity of domestic researchers has been greatly improved. Despite the increase in the number of China-related HPSR articles, researchers need to pay more attention to research quality and policy feasibility, so as to further improve the research capacity of Chinas health policy and system.
