On the website of Wuhan Association for Science and Technology, a survey response to the controversy caused by the award of primary school students’ research on "drinking tea to fight cancer" was released.

  Li Hongliang, the "academic star" of Wuhan University and the dean of basic medical college, has been involved in the controversy several times in recent years after being reported for academic fraud a few years ago.

  The last time was in July this year. At that time, two primary school students in Wuhan were questioned after they won the third prize in the primary school group of the 33rd National Youth Science and Technology Innovation Competition for their research on "Tea Polyphenols Against Cancer". Li Hongliang was the father of these two award-winning primary school students.

  According to The Paper and other media reports, people familiar with the matter disclosed that on the afternoon of September 15th, a meeting was held to evaluate and recommend the change of the administrative leadership of the School of Basic Medicine of Wuhan University. Li Hongliang made a report on his work and "voluntarily" offered to resign as dean. In the previous few months, he was removed from the positions of director of the Animal Experiment Center of Wuhan University and director of ABSL-III Laboratory of Wuhan University by Wuhan University.

  At present, Wuhan University has not responded to whether Li Hongliang "voluntarily" offered to resign as dean. As can be seen from the information disclosure website of Wuhan University, the school issued a notice on May 10th this year, saying that after research by the school, it was decided to remove the director of the Animal Experiment Center of Wuhan University in Li Hongliang and the director of ABSL-Ⅲ Laboratory of Wuhan University from May 6th, 2020.

  Academic star

  Won the "Tan Jiazhen Life Science Innovation Award".

  As can be seen from the website of Wuhan University, the job information of Li Hongliang on the website of the School of Basic Medical Sciences has not changed. Still: Li Hongliang, currently the Dean of Basic Medical College, Director of model animal Institute of Wuhan University, Deputy Director of Cardiovascular Institute of Wuhan University, and Director of Medical Science Research Center of Central South Hospital.

  According to the website of Wuhan University, Li Hongliang graduated from Guangdong Medical University with a bachelor’s degree in 1999, obtained a master’s degree from Jinan University in 2002, and obtained a doctor’s degree from Peking Union Medical College in 2005. He studied under the famous molecular biologists Liu Depei and Liang Zhi from China. In 2006 -2007, Li Hongliang went to Harvard Medical School as a postdoctoral fellow, and in 2007 -2008, he worked as a postdoctoral fellow and head of a scientific research team at the University of Toronto.

  Li Hongliang returned to China in 2008 and served as the deputy director of the Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases of Wuhan University People’s Hospital. On December 20, 2016, the Organization Department of the Party Committee of Wuhan University announced that Li Hongliang, who was born in 1974, was to be the dean of the Basic Medical College of Wuhan University. Li Hongliang is an expert on cardiovascular metabolic diseases and model animal. On November 18th, 2017, he also won the "Tan Jiazhen Life Science Innovation Award".

  Li Hongliang once told the media that his research team has more than 100 people, which is one of the largest research teams in the domestic medical research field.

  Have been reported

  "There are two major problems in animal experiments"

  Li Hongliang’s involvement in the storm began in January 2018. On January 2nd of that year, Li Hongliang’s team published a paper in Nature Medicine, an international top academic journal with an impact factor of over 30. On January 18th, Ho Wz, a professor at the same school, questioned two papers published in Nature-Medicine by Li Hongliang’s team in February 2017 and May 2017: "Improving nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in mice and nonhuman primates by targeting CFLAR" and "Improving nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in mice and monkeys by targeting lysosomal degradation of Tlr4 by using the vesicular regulatory protein Tmbim1". Ho Wz believes that Li Hongliang’s team has two major problems in key animal experiments: the experimental period and the number of animals are insufficient.

  With the fermentation of events, more papers published by Li Hongliang since his master’s degree have been questioned for fraud.

  However, this report gave a conclusion after the school investigation. On January 29th, 2018, Wuhan University published the "Investigation Opinions on the Academic Misconduct Reported by Team Li Hongliang" in Weibo, arguing that there was no academic fraud in the reported content of Team Li Hongliang, but there were some omissions in the writing of the paper.

  At the end of 2019, Li Hongliang was once again caught in a storm. At that time, a screenshot of a network transmission showed that Rao Yi, the president of Capital Medical University, came forward to report Li Hongliang’s academic fraud under his real name, and "suggested that the National Natural Science Foundation of China effectively and boldly investigate Li Hongliang’s blatant fraud in Wuhan University Medical College for 17 years".

  After that, the media sent a screenshot of the online transmission to Rao Yi himself for verification. Rao Yi replied: "No, there was a draft."

  Make another storm

  Involved in the daughter’s "drinking tea to fight cancer" award-winning controversy

  On July 16th, this year, it was reported that the prize-winning study of "drinking tea to fight cancer" by sisters of primary school students in Wuhan attracted wide attention from netizens.

  At that time, it can be seen in the official website of the National Youth Science and Technology Innovation Competition that a pair of third-grade and fifth-grade primary school students affiliated to Huazhong University of Science and Technology participated in the 33rd National Youth Science and Technology Innovation Competition and won the third prize in the primary school group. The project is called "Anti-tumor Experimental Study of Tea Polyphenols". It is mentioned in the project introduction that EGCG, the main component of tea polyphenols in green tea extract, is used as the test drug to study its in vivo efficacy in nude mice liver tumor disease model. Twenty-five days after drug treatment, it was found that the tumor volume of mice in EGCG group was smaller than that in normal saline group and adriamycin group. This experiment showed that catechol EGCG extracted from green tea had certain anti-tumor effect.

  Netizens questioned that the project requires researchers to carry out mouse experiments, and the experiments require high logic, which is difficult for primary school students to complete. According to media reports, the father of these two pupils is Li Hongliang.

  For this matter, Li Hongliang once responded in an interview with the media: "I did not participate in my daughter’s experimental research." "I personally think that this research and application are in line with the norms." Wuhan Association for Science and Technology also issued a statement on July 17, responding that the experimental idea was put forward by students, and after instructing the teacher’s demonstration teaching, the students independently completed the experiment and obtained the report results.

  According to the notice of appointment and dismissal issued by the information disclosure website of Wuhan University, the school has appointed Lan Ke as the director of the Animal Experiment Center of Wuhan University and the director of ABSL-III Laboratory of Wuhan University in May this year for a period of five years.

  Then, it is still unknown why Li Hongliang was removed from the above two positions, and whether he "voluntarily" resigned as the dean of the School of Basic Medicine of Wuhan University on September 15th.

The expansion of Northeast Tiger’s activity scope reflects the ecological change of forest area.

Xinhua News Agency, Harbin, March 21st Title: The expansion of Northeast Tiger’s activity scope reflects the ecological change of forest area.

Xinhua News Agency reporter Xiong Yanhao and Wang Junbao

Information from several grass-roots forestry units in Heilongjiang Province shows that since the commercial logging of natural forests was completely stopped in key state-owned forest areas in Heilongjiang Province in 2014, the activities of Northeast Tiger in this area have gradually expanded.

In January this year, the wild Siberian tiger was found again in the application area of Muling Forestry Bureau Co., Ltd. of Longjiang Forest Industry Group. Wang Daohui, the ranger of Heping Forest Farm of Muling Forestry Bureau Co., Ltd., and his colleagues also found the feces of the Northeast Tiger and the moving images of the tiger taken by infrared cameras.

"This is the fifth adult wild Siberian tiger discovered in Muling forest area in recent years." Guo Jianjun, head of Liufengshan National Forest Park Management Office of Muling Forestry Bureau Co., Ltd. said.

In 2014, the commercial harvesting of natural forests in key state-owned forest areas in Heilongjiang Province, which lasted for more than half a century, stopped, and tens of thousands of forestry workers, including large and small Xing ‘an Mountains, changed from tree cutters to tree planters and foresters, and the northernmost forest barrier in China regained its vitality.

In October 2014, the footprint of a wild Siberian tiger was found in founder county, Harbin. It was the first time that people found the footprint of a wild Siberian tiger in founder county since the 1970s. A month later, the trail of wild Siberian tiger was first discovered in the application area of Weihe Forestry Bureau Co., Ltd. of Longjiang Forest Industry Group. In 2016, the number of monitoring images of wild Siberian tigers in some application areas of Longjiang Forest Industry Group reached the highest value …

After 2016, wild Northeast Tiger and Leopard were also discovered in Yichun forest area of Xiaoxing ‘anling, and even the Northeast Tiger family was photographed in Suiyang forest area; In 2021, the Siberian tiger was discovered again in Daxinganling area of Heilongjiang Province. Previously, the wild Siberian tiger was once thought to be extinct in Daxinganling.

The northeast mountain forest in China was once one of the main habitats of the wild Amur tiger. However, in the past, many human disturbance and destruction caused the habitat of the wild Siberian tiger to shrink and the species to be endangered.

Zhang Peng, a professor at the Forestry College of Northeast Forestry University, said that in recent years, with the continuous implementation of measures such as stopping logging and patrolling, the forest resources in the northeast forest region of China have been restored, the ecological environment has been improving, and animals such as black bears, wild boars, roe deer and wild deer have increased day by day, providing a living environment for large carnivorous wild animals.

Yang Chongjun, deputy director of the Resource Management Department of Longjiang Forest Industry Group, said that in recent years, the scope of activities of the Northeast Tiger in the application area of Longjiang Forest Industry Group has expanded from 9 forestry bureaus to 14.

Zhang Minghai, a professor at Northeast Forestry University and director of National Forestry and Grassland Administration Feline Research Center, said that tigers are large carnivores, which are at the top of the food chain and require extremely high habitat conditions. Northeast tigers are willing to settle in the relevant forest areas, which shows that they can be provided with a lot of food there, and indirectly shows that this forest area is rich in biodiversity and the ecological environment has been effectively restored.

According to the data of Forestry and Grass Bureau of Heilongjiang Province, the forest area in Heilongjiang Province is 20.12 million hectares at present, and there are about 500 species of terrestrial wild animals distributed in the province. In recent years, the local wildlife shelter and rescue mechanism has been continuously improved, and a wildlife rescue system covering the whole province has been established.

Price cycle fluctuation since reform and opening up and its enlightenment

Price is a barometer of economic performance. Since the reform and opening up, China’s economy has developed at a high speed, accompanied by severe price fluctuations. By combing and analyzing the past price fluctuations, we can get some enlightenment that is beneficial to the current price work.

Division of price fluctuation cycle in China since reform and opening up

Using the "Valley-Valley" method, the fluctuation of prices (in this paper, consumer price index CPI) since China’s reform and opening up is divided into cycles, and there are five representative price cycles.

The first time was from 1978 to 1983. In this cycle, the peak price appeared in 1980, which was 7.5%, and the gap between peak and valley in the price cycle was 5.5%. The actual situation is: on the one hand, there are obvious situations such as overheated investment and increased consumption expenditure in China, and the increase in fiscal expenditure leads to a serious fiscal deficit; On the other hand, the state has adjusted the unreasonable price system, which has pushed up prices to some extent.

The second time was from 1984 to 1986. At this time, China’s price reform has entered the second stage. The full liberalization of prices has effectively activated the market, and also made the hidden supply shortage and suppressed demand further open. In addition, the overheated economy and uncoordinated economic development have led to an overall increase in prices. In 1985, the price increase reached 9.3%, and the peak-valley gap in the price cycle was 2.8%.

The third time was from 1987 to 1990. The country has implemented loose monetary and fiscal policies, and the macro-economy has recovered. However, the deep-seated problems accumulated in economic operation for many years have become increasingly prominent. In addition, in 1988, the price rose by 18.8%, and in 1990 it dropped sharply to 3.1%, and the peak-valley gap in the price cycle was as high as 15.7%.

The fourth time was from 1991 to 1999. This is the longest and largest price cycle since the reform and opening up, and the peak-valley gap is as high as 25.5%. Among them, from 1992 to 1994, the growth rate of the total investment in fixed assets of the whole society reached 44.4%, 61.8% and 30.4% respectively, and there was a nationwide real estate fever, which led to the price increase of 24.1% in 1994, which was the highest year since the founding of New China.

The fifth time was from 2007 to 2009. During this period, the price gap between peak and valley was 6.6%, and the main reasons for price fluctuation were the price increase of agricultural and sideline products such as pork and the price fluctuation of international commodities.

The main factors leading to price fluctuation

The price fluctuation since the reform and opening up is the result of many factors at home and abroad. First, the impact of external shocks on price fluctuations. In the past 10 years, the international economic situation has been turbulent, the drastic fluctuation of commodity prices and the weakening of external demand have formed an impact on China’s economy, and domestic prices have fluctuated due to the impact of the international economy. Second, from the perspective of China’s classified price index, food prices have significantly led the CPI, and the structural increase is obvious. Third, the factors of asset price fluctuation are mixed. In the process of establishing and perfecting China’s socialist market economic system, both real estate prices and stock prices have experienced abnormal and violent fluctuations, which inevitably lead to price fluctuations. In addition, some policy factors also play an important role in the price cycle fluctuation.

Thoughts and suggestions on stabilizing prices

At present, China’s prices are relatively stable, but there are still some uncertainties and risks, so we need to attach great importance to and do a good job in price work to keep the overall price level basically stable. First, optimize the monetary policy system and maintain a stable market environment. While regulating the money supply, the central bank should pay attention to the transformation of the intermediate goal of monetary policy to the marketization of interest rates; Fine-tune the interest rate through open market business to maintain the stability of the money market environment. The second is to increase the strategic reserve scale of energy, minerals and other commodities, and ease the resource bottleneck in China. Further improve the commodity futures and spot markets, establish an international pricing center in China, and gradually acquire the pricing power of international commodities. Third, vigorously develop modern agriculture, improve the reserve mechanism of grain and agricultural and sideline products, and improve the supply capacity of grain and food. Promote the construction of agricultural and sideline products circulation system, reduce the circulation cost of agricultural and sideline products, and improve the circulation efficiency of agricultural and sideline products. The fourth is to promote the all-round development of capital market tools such as stocks, bonds, futures and financial derivatives, expand the breadth and depth of the capital market and diversify investment risks. Formulate a reasonable real estate pricing mechanism to promote the sustained and healthy development of the real estate market.

How to deal with the medlar soaked in water? Expert: Eat.

  Lycium barbarum plays an important role in Chinese’s diet. However, how to eat, in order to maximize its health benefits?

  The most valuable nutrient of Lycium barbarum L. is carotene, the content of which is more than twice that of carrot. After entering the small intestine, Lycium barbarum L. can be turned into vitamin A that can be directly used by human body, which helps to protect the retina. Lycium barbarum also contains carotenoids such as lutein, which has a positive effect on protecting eye macula. In addition, Lycium barbarum is also rich in betaine, which helps to regulate immunity and eliminate free radicals in the body.

  Many people like to soak Lycium barbarum in water and drink it. After soaking, they throw out the tasteless Lycium barbarum, which is actually a waste. Because carotene and carotenoids in Lycium barbarum are fat-soluble vitamins, it is necessary to eat Lycium barbarum fruit when soaking in water. In addition, you can also add some medlar when cooking porridge, soup and cooking, which is delicious and nutritious.
