Beijing’s Central Axis through the Lens of a German Photographer

A central axis represents the core of a city’s culture,signifying its features and identity.STRETCHING from the Bell Tower and the Drum Tower in the north,to the Yongding Gate in the south,the 7.8 kilometer Beijing Central Axis has been the“cultural backbone”of the city for hundreds of years.Seen from the Drum Tower,the Central Axis is like a scroll of historical stories unfolding along its route,engendering a string of emotions in its many viewers.

Passing Down Memories of the Central Axis of Beijing

The Central Axis of Beijing, running though the city, retains the memories of a generation.I was born and raised in Majuan Hutong, which lies to the northeast of the Forbidden City in Beijing. Across from my home’s courtyard was Caoduo Hutong. Walking west out of Caoduo Hutong, you can see the northeastern corner tower of the Forbidden City and its moat, with Jingshan Park opposite the moat.

Sensitivity Assessment and Optimization Strategy of Climatic Environment in Central Urban Area of Beijing

As one of the methods of urban environmental assessment,sensitivity assessment of urban climatic environment can accurately reflect the problem areas of current urban climate and built environment through visual means,and help cities to carry out sustainable transformation and renewal in the stock era to optimize the living environment.Taking the central urban area of Beijing as the research object,the sensitivity of climatic environment was evaluated by meteorological data and built environment element data.The results showed that the distribution of sensitive units showed a centrifugal radiation pattern of"high in the center and low in the periphery".Block units with high climate sensitivity were mostly concentrated in Xicheng District and Dongcheng District,accounting for 93%of the total number of units.Further research showed that complex built environment and lack of elements to regulate climatic environment were the main reasons for the poor local climatic environment in the region with high climate sensitivity.Finally,a comprehensive evaluation of the remolding capacity,renewal potential and future development intensity of different grades of climate sensitive units was given.The results will provide scientific reference for urban renewal and reconstruction under climatic and environmental changes,so as to promote urban sustainable development and improvement of living environment.

Analysis of feasibility of application of Beishu point acupressure therapy in treating gastroesophageal reflux disease via AMPK / ULK1 mediated autophagy pathway based on "adjusting central axis via pivot" theory

Gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD)is a digestive system disease characterized by uncomfortable symptoms caused by reflux of gastric contents.It has increased sharply with the development of my country’s society and economy.If there is no reasonable and effective Prevention and treatment measures will inevitably increase the financial burden of patients,and also pose a major threat to the quality of life and health of patients.Cell signal transduction mediated by various receptors participates in the regulation mechanism of the body's various levels of biological functions.By inhibiting or activating its functions,the purpose of curing diseases can be achieved,and cell signal transduction has been used in traditional Chinese medicine.Studying.The theory of"adjusting the central axis"was explored by Professor Xie Sheng through decades of clinical experience.It has been proven in practice to treat GERD.It starts from the model of TCM viscera and expounds that the pathogenesis of GERD involves multiple viscera.Multi-system and multi-factor,explain the correlation of the disease with a variety of zang-fu syndromes,and use this as a basis to guide the clinical use of hidden prescriptions.The back-shu pointer therapy can prevent GERD by correcting the unbalanced state of the viscera and qi machine,and promoting the junction of the two channels of Ren and Du.Based on the theory of"adjusting the hub by the pivot",this article expounds the pathogenesis of GERD from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine.By consulting the literature and combining with the previous research,it proposes to analyze the methods and methods of Backshu pointer therapy to prevent and treat GERD from the AMPK/ULK1 mediated autophagy pathway.

The Central Axis and the History Of Beijing

When pioneering journalist Eliza Scidmore,National Geographic’s first official female writer,photographer and board member,visited Beijing in 1899,she wrote a 20-page rapturous article about the city’s architecture.What I found curious was its absence throughout of the term Central Axis.It was in 1996 that I first arrived in Beijing from Denmark and discovered a stark difference in what Scidmore and I found most striking about the Beijing cityscape.

New technologies to investigate the brain-gut axis

Functional gastrointestinal disorders are commonly encountered in clinical practice, and pain is their commonest presenting symptom. In addition, patients with these disorders often demonstrate a heightened sensitivity to experimental visceral stimulation, termed visceral pain hypersensitivity that is likely to be important in their pathophysiology. Knowledge of how the brain processes sensory information from visceral structures is still in its infancy. However, our understanding has been propelled by technological imaging advances such as functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Positron Emission To-mography, Magnetoencephalography, and Electroen-cephalography (EEG). Numerous human studies have non-invasively demonstrated the complexity involved in functional pain processing, and highlighted a number of subcortical and cortical regions involved. This review will focus on the neurophysiological pathways (primary afferents, spinal and supraspinal transmission), brain- imaging techniques and the influence of endogenous and psychological processes in healthy controls and patients suffering from functional gastrointestinal dis- orders. Special attention will be paid to the newer EEG source analysis techniques. Understanding the pheno- typic differences that determine an individual's response to injurious stimuli could be the key to understanding why some patients develop pain and hyperalgesia in response to inflammation/injury while others do not. For future studies, an integrated approach is required incorporating an individual's psychological, autonomic, neuroendocrine, neurophysiological, and genetic prof ile to def ine phenotypic traits that may be at greater risk of developing sensitised states in response to gut in? am- mation or injury.

“双城记”:京津冀区域双核结构的实证分析

在京津冀协同发展快速推进的大背景下,进一步理清京津两个核心城市的辐射带动作用对于唱好“双城记”具有重要意义。基于区域双核结构理论,通过测算国内19个城市群的中心性和门户性指标并进行聚类分析,可以发现京津冀与其中7个城市群为双核结构;进而借助引力模型和场强模型,探讨京津冀区域内所有可能的双核结构组合,确定“北京-天津”是京津冀城市群内影响最大且最为稳定的双核结构,其中北京为中心城市,天津为门户城市。进一步分析不难发现,2019年之后京津双核结构的作用正在弱化,其在京津冀城市群内的功能有待进一步明确及发挥,尤其是天津如何进一步发挥其港口及门户城市的作用有待进一步探讨。

我国央地知识产权金融政策协同研究——以京津冀地区为例

央地知识产权金融政策协同能更好地发挥中央政策的引导作用并且最大程度地发挥最优政策效果,对解决科技型中小企业融资难具有重要意义。本文运用社会网络分析法从主体协同和主题协同两个视角对京津冀地区的知识产权金融政策协同进行实证研究。结果表明,在主体协同方面,北京市地方政策主体最为积极并且其政策主体扩散广度最高。在政策制定主体中,中央的知识产权金融政策参与主体类型较多,而地方政府的政策制定主体较为单一,几乎全是政府及其政府部门。在主题协同方面,天津市的政策主题丰富度较低,政策主题相对比较集中,北京市和河北省的政策主题较为丰富。其中,天津市的政策主题与中央政策的相似度最高,河北省次之,北京市的政策主题更富有本地特色。
