China may be leading the pack but science fraud has been on the rise across the board for the last decade and a half.

While on the topic this can be a very big issue. The science of today is built on science of the past. If you are researching something and use past study as basis for something in your own research when that study is shown to be a fraud your own research was just invalidated.

At least China doesn't have the level of ideological opposition to science that exists in the U.S.
