"Director, the experintal data has been compiled. Sugar indeed has a significant effect on skin ulcers, knife wounds, and burns, and the results are excellent. Here is the report," Tong Fei said.
Fang Qian took the report, carefully checked its contents, and after confirming it was correct, imdiately said, "Very good. I have already written the paper and also integrated Dr. Lu's Chinese dical theory. You three add the experintal data, polish it up, and rember, don't change a word of Dr. Lu's work. Send it to once it's organized."
"Understood," responded the three, led by Tong Fei.
After Fang Qian left, the three started compiling the materials.
In recent days, their research had indeed convinced them of sugar's effects, completely overturning their previous perception of this little substance.
Who would have thought that sugar could have so many benefits?
It seems it can help heal most wounds.
Besides explaining it through reverse concentration gradient, component analysis was useless.
Yet its effect is indeed better than that of white sugar.
Both are sugars, and both work on reverse concentration gradients, so in theory, the results should be the sa.
But no matter how many experints were conducted, sugar's effect was always superior.
This also made the three completely stop doubting Lu Jiu.
Clearly, when one theory cannot explain sothing, and another theory not only explains it but also shows results, it signifies that the latter theory, while not 100% correct, is definitely more convincing than the forr.
"Sigh, it's finally about to end. I wonder which journal the Director will submit this paper to," Jing Li said.
"It must be the Huaxia dical Journal. It's the most central journal in the country. I believe our paper can definitely make it," Tong Fei said.
"That's not certain. The Huaxia dical Journal is the top-ranked journal in the country. Only top-tier papers get published there, and ours is at most a curiosity. Getting into a national journal is probably unlikely. I think it might barely reach a provincial journal," Jing Li said.
"Too low. The Huaxia dical Journal is indeed difficult, but the Director's paper is broad in scope and impactful, very significant for diabetes and trauma fields, so it can definitely make it into a national journal," Wen Cheng said.
"Hey, do you think this paper could get into SCI? Like, the journal of Natural dicine?" Tong Fei said.
"You're dreaming. How could it be possible?" Jing Li said.
"Why not? I think we can try. It's obvious that there are no papers on sugar research abroad, so this could be considered creating a new field. Why not?" Tong Fei said.
"We haven't discovered new components. At best, it's just a reverse concentration gradient. How could that get into an international journal? Besides, there's Chinese dicine content—can foreigners understand it?" Jing Li said.
"I also think it's unlikely, but not for the reason you think. Foreigners can understand Chinese dicine content, but just having it ans it will never get into their journals," Wen Cheng said.
"You've gone mad. International journals are very fair. How could they not accept it just because it contains Chinese dicine practices? Just because you're party-affiliated doesn't an you should belittle the fairness of international journals," Jing Li said.
"Oh? Fair and just? As I know, over the past three years, many papers on epidemic (prevention and control) by both Chinese and Western dicine have been published, but Nature and The Lancet only accepted Western dicine papers and rejected all on Chinese dicine. I couldn't find a single Chinese dicine paper on epidemic prevention and control on foreign websites. Why is that?" Wen Cheng said.
"Isn't there a possibility that Chinese dicine lacks virology, so their papers don't et the requirents, hence the rejections?" Jing Li said.
"What's the standard for dical papers? Is it just about eting dical criteria and not about curing and saving people? Over the past three years on the dical front lines, we have all contributed greatly and even sacrificed personal and family lives. Who was really the main force? You and I both know it. How did those critical patients recover? How were severe cases turned into mild ones, and cured without sequelae? If such facts are presented, and the experience is written into words but still doesn't et the dical journal's standards, then isn't it possible that the problem lies with the journal, not us?" Wen Cheng said.
Jing Li fell silent, and the atmosphere grew heavy.
Beside them, Tong Fei quickly broke the ice, "Alright, alright, just a joke. Let's imagine the results of our joint efforts. No need to be so serious."
Wen Cheng said, "I'm discussing the matter itself, not others."
Wen Cheng did not understand Chinese dicine, but precisely because he stood in the dical field, he could truly see how large the gap in treatnt was between Chinese and Western dicine.
The issue with the papers was just the tip of the iceberg.
Take the example of National Master of Chinese dicine, Zhang Li, who worked tirelessly on the front lines during the epidemic until he suffered acute cholecystitis, which had suppurated and led to embedded gangrene in the bile duct stones. If the conditions had permitted, Chinese dicine adjustnts would have made it possible to avoid removing the gallbladder.
But was there ti?
No!
Therefore, at that ti, the best course of action was to surgically remove it, so he could continue to stay on the front lines and participate in guiding work.
And all this beca fodder for people to claim that even top Chinese dicine doctors had to resort to Western dicine, trashing Chinese dicine; an online storm of criticism ensued.
It seed that if Chinese dicine used Western surgery, it beca a traitor to Chinese dicine, painted by public opinion as proof that Chinese dicine was inferior to Western dicine, while Western dicine prescribing Chinese herbal dicine never stirred such a massive criticism storm.
Having learned of many such matters, Wen Cheng had a more objective attitude toward Chinese dicine than others.
Several hours passed, and the three finally organized the paper and sent it to Fang Qian.
Fang Qian carefully checked it twice, confird it was flawless, and then sent a ssage to Lu Jiu before transmitting the docunt to Lu Jiu.
Resting at ho, Lu Jiu saw Fang Qian's paper, opened it, and began reading.
I had to admit that professionals did things differently. This scientific experintal approach indeed presented sugar's data vividly, a point where Chinese dicine noticeably fell short.
"How is it, is there anything that needs modifying?" Half an hour later, Fang Qian ssaged again, clearly valuing Lu Jiu's opinion highly.
"No need, very good. Director Fang, you can send it directly," Lu Jiu said.
"Ha ha ha, alright. Oh, by the way, guess which magazine I plan to send it to?" Fang Qian asked.
"I'm an outsider in this field, can't guess," Lu Jiu replied.
"The Huaxia dical Journal, the top-tier journal," Fang Qian said.
"Is that possible?" Lu Jiu asked.
"Absolutely, I have confidence," Fang Qian said.
"Alright, then we'll await good news!" Lu Jiu said.
Fang Qian looked at the ssage on his phone, sowhat puzzled, "This guy, isn't he even a little excited..."
The Huaxia dical Journal—it's indeed the top-tier dical journal in the country, with the entire dical community watching closely. Once a new paper is published there, it absolutely garners attention throughout the dical field.
