Correction: A graphic in the segment about chronic pain misspelled Joanna Blackhart’s name. We regret the error.

Saturday on PBS News Weekend, Trump makes his first trip to Asia of his second term as he seeks a trade deal with Chinese President Xi. China’s government launches the most widespread crackdown on the country’s Christians in years. An experimental treatment offers hope to millions struggling with chronic pain. Plus, we meet a nurse in Uganda who climbs a 1,000-foot ladder to save lives.
