Chapter 282: Chinese medicine treatments are thousands of years ahead of the times
"Medical skills are meant to cure diseases and save lives, and should not be divided by national boundaries. It is my honor to work with you to eradicate leukemia, and I will do my best."
Li Quan agreed to this matter solemnly.
He invited foreign experts with the idea of mutual learning.
"To borrow an idiom from your country, a promise is a deal!"
Aixen held out his hand.
The two men clasped their hands tightly together and shook them.
Li Quan represented China, and Aixon represented the United States. This was also the first time that doctors from the two great countries put aside their prejudices on national boundaries and cooperated sincerely.
This is a very meaningful thing.
When the two people held hands together, the flash lights flashed wildly, capturing this historic moment.
"Haha, as the director of Huier Hospital, I have personally witnessed this sacred scene of cooperation between Chinese and Western medicine. I believe that the cooperation between you will surely be sincere and successful in overcoming all the difficulties of leukemia and benefiting the people of the world."
At such a highlight moment, how could Director Tan, as the head of Huier Hospital, be willing to be left alone like clothes?
He had some understanding of Li Quan's character.
Li Quan is very respectful to his superiors and elders, but if you want Li Quan to flatter him, ask him to make an appearance, or stand in the center for photos, forget it.
There was no other way, he could only take the initiative to create opportunities for himself to show up.
In terms of how they deal with people and things, there is actually an essential difference between technical talents and administrative talents who manage business.
Technical talents are generally stubborn and have a persevering fighting spirit. They like to work quietly and study technology assiduously. They have their own pride in their bones and almost never take the initiative to flatter others.
If they focus on flattering others, they will never achieve success in technological research.
Business management and administrative talents do not have any special skills, so if they want to do well, they must be able to handle things.
What does it mean to be good at handling things?
That is to rack your brains to figure out how to please your superiors, how to manage your subordinates, and how to get along with others so that you can be versatile and popular everywhere.
Pleasing superiors is of paramount importance.
Because it is related to promotion and salary increase. Their fate is decided by their superiors.
How to please your superiors?
Flattery is the lowest cost and most efficient way to please someone.
So, people are different. Whatever kind of life you want, you will naturally work towards that direction.
Li Quan likes to study medicine and is not interested in flattery.
In fact, this is not a disadvantage.
It was this kind of character that enabled him to continuously improve and enhance his medical skills.
If the person cooperating with foreign experts at this moment is Vice President Min, I guarantee that Vice President Min will immediately invite President Tan to stand in the C position for a photo with the most humble attitude.
There was even a grand cooperation ceremony or something, hosted by President Tan.
Dean Tan shamelessly came forward to take two photos, then said with a smile, "Dr. Li Quan, Professor Axen, and other American experts, I sincerely hope that you can overcome the medical difficulties of leukemia as soon as possible."
Professor Axon nodded.
"Thank you for your blessing, Mr. Dean! I would like to ask you something. Doctor Li is only a resident doctor in your hospital, but he already has such amazing Chinese medicine skills. Then the Chinese medicine doctors in your hospital who are more advanced than Doctor Li must be even more amazing. Can we ask them to work together?"
Who says foreigners are stupid?
Just look at Professor Aixen and you will know that he is very smart.
After Li Quan agreed to cooperate with him, he wanted to cooperate with more Chinese medicine practitioners and learn more powerful Chinese medicine skills.
Because according to his thinking, Li Quan, a lowly intern, was already so awesome. If he called Li Quan's superior physician over, wouldn't he be even more awesome?
He would never have imagined that Li Quan was the best Chinese medicine doctor in Huier Hospital.
The reason for the low level is that I have just started working and have not yet obtained a practicing physician certificate.
"Ah...hahaha...well..."
Dean Tan knew very well that the only TCM doctor at Huier Hospital who could really come up with something was Li Quan. He couldn't help but secretly regret that he should have increased the investment in the TCM research department earlier.
As a result, the team has failed at the critical moment, with only Li Quan in charge and no other Chinese medicine practitioner who can cooperate with foreign experts.
With so many reporters filming and reporting, it is so embarrassing that Huier Hospital can only provide one Chinese medicine doctor.
"Why, is there a problem?" Aixen was not easy to fool.
He seemed to sense something mysterious from Dean Tan's expression.
In fact, anyone who can become a top figure in a certain field must have a high IQ.
Dean Tan wanted to laugh it off and let the matter go, so forget about it.
"No problem, of course no problem. We have set up a TCM research department in Huier Hospital, and we have strong strength in TCM. Doctor Li Quan is only a member of the TCM research department. There are many other TCM doctors, but they are very busy now. I am afraid that they can only exchange medical skills with you when they are not diagnosing patients."
At this time, even if Dean Tan got his face swollen, he had to pretend to be fat.
At least in front of the media reporters, you must not be shabby.
We have to let everyone know that Huier Hospital is very strong.
Aixen's eyes lit up. "That's great. This time my team and I must stay in your hospital for a few more days to exchange medical skills with your Chinese medicine doctors."
"You are most welcome! You and your team can stay as long as you want." Director Tan wishes these foreign experts could join Huier Hospital directly.
He happily agreed.
"Okay, you should examine Miss Sophie first!" Dean Tan knew very well that the more you talk, the more mistakes you make.
Afraid that Axen and the others would ask him some embarrassing questions, he immediately stepped aside.
"Li, we just took a preliminary look at Miss Su's test results, as well as the data on the drugs and chemotherapy regimens she selected for her first chemotherapy. Based on my experience in treatment, the two chemotherapy drugs she used the first time were ineffective. Even if she uses new drugs for combined chemotherapy, the effect will probably be very poor."
Aixen's words made Sophie and others feel heavy in their hearts.
Chemotherapy not only destroys diseased cells, but also damages healthy cells to a certain extent. It is not a good treatment option.
But in the beginning, human medical technology was not as advanced as it is now, and leukemia was even considered a terminal illness.
At that time, doctors were helpless when faced with this disease and could only watch the patients slowly die.
The patients are in pain, but the doctors are actually in even greater pain.
Later, when doctors discovered that some chemotherapy drugs could actually kill the leukemia cells that had eluded them, they were extremely happy.
This is also the first ray of hope for human treatment of leukemia.
Later, humans began to vigorously develop chemotherapy drugs and optimize chemotherapy plans.
To this day, chemotherapy remains one of the main methods for treating leukemia.
"Li, what I mean is that we should stop using chemotherapy to treat your girlfriend. Because as we deepen our research on leukemia, we have found from tens of thousands of clinical treatment cases that chemotherapy can seriously reduce the patient's immunity."
"In addition, the root cause of leukemia is that the body's immune system is damaged and defective, which is why it occurs."
"So the best way to treat leukemia is to find ways to enhance the patient's immunity, rather than destroy it. My team and I have been researching selective immunotherapy that is more advanced than ordinary immunotherapy over the years."
"This may be the ultimate treatment for leukemia. At least it's heading in the right direction."
Professor Aixen introduced his research results.
After hearing this, Li Quan's heart was in turmoil.
Because Qian Yi specialized in treating childhood blood diseases, the treatment concepts he proposed were very similar to those proposed by Professor Aixen.
Qian Yi was a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner in China thousands of years ago.
The treatment concept he proposed was actually thousands of years ahead of the latest treatment plans developed by modern American hematologists.
How great is Chinese medicine?
Director Qin of the Hematology Department next to him looked at Professor Aixen with an expression of respect after listening to his speech.
"The selective immunotherapy you proposed opened my mind. After careful consideration, I think your treatment plan is indeed more advanced than all the current treatment plans. The reason why leukemia patients relapse after chemotherapy is that although the leukemia cells in the patient's body are killed, the immune deficiency still exists. This is the root cause of relapse."
Director Qin strongly agrees with Exen's treatment method.
She is definitely one of the best hematologists in China.
The fact that she agrees with this is enough to show that the selective immunotherapy proposed by Aixen is indeed internationally leading.
"Li, if you agree with our proposed treatment plan, my team and I will start working immediately. We will extract some blood and bone marrow from Miss Su's body to study where her immune deficiency lies. Then we will develop a corresponding bioactive agent specifically for this deficiency and inject it into her body to stimulate her immune system. Let her body's immune deficiency automatically repair itself."
Aixen asked Li Quan for his opinion.
"Sure! But I have to make sure she is 100% safe before I agree to inject the biologically active agent we have researched into her body."
Li Quan nodded in agreement.
It is undeniable that the most advanced treatment plan proposed by Aixen is in line with Li Quan's expectations.
It is more than ten times more advanced than turning T cells into super soldiers.
"Lee, no treatment option is 100% safe."
Aixen emphasized.
"Yes, most of our Chinese medicine treatment plans are 100% safe." Li Quan has learned quite a few miraculous medical skills.
As long as it does not exceed the healing capabilities of the Divine Doctor, he can ensure one hundred percent safety.
Western medicine can never compare to this.
Look at the ancient Chinese medicine practitioners who treated patients . Would they ask patients to sign a risk notification or an informed consent form?
When the patient comes in, he will tell you directly after diagnosis whether the disease can be cured.
As long as it can be cured, then it is certain to succeed.
If it can't be cured, then we have to find someone else who is better.
Look at modern hospitals. Even for the smallest operation, you are asked to sign.
To put it bluntly, the doctor himself cannot control the risks during the operation, so he asks you to sign just in case.
"Li, I don't believe what you said. No matter how magical Chinese medicine is, it is ultimately a kind of medical skill. It can't be better than our Western medicine." Aixen never believed that Chinese medicine could be 100% safe.
"Haha, then you just wait and see. You will stay here for a while, right? Then you can watch me treat patients with Chinese medicine."
Li Quan did not argue. He would use facts to prove that the safety of traditional Chinese medicine is incomparable to that of Western medicine.
"I've never seen Chinese medicine treating diseases before, so I'll have to watch carefully when the time comes." Aixen had an expectant look on his face.
"By the way, your acupuncture treatment for leukemia is quite effective. Can you tell me how it works?"
Aixen humbly asked for advice.
"It's simple. It's just to use silver needles to stimulate the acupuncture points, and then fumigate the patient's body with medicine, so as to achieve the purpose of boosting qi and blood." Li Quan explained.
What?
Can acupuncture treat leukemia?
The reporters present were shocked and started filming Li Quan frantically.
He even recorded the conversation between the two.
Organize into press releases.
This is unprecedented big news.
After so many years of development of Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupuncture has long become an auxiliary means of health care and wellness. I have never heard that acupuncture can treat leukemia, which is known as an incurable disease.
In the same ward, the middle-aged man who had laughed at Li Quan had been so smart that he thought Li Quan, Sophie and others were acting.
The purpose was to trick his wife into also using acupuncture for treatment.
Now I know that acupuncture is really effective.
He regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.
Because he had offended Li Quan to death.
His wife said, "Look, even American experts say acupuncture is effective in treating leukemia, but you insisted on calling them liars yesterday. Now, even if we ask Dr. Li for help, he won't treat me."
The middle-aged man regretted it in his heart, but as a man who wants to save face, he refused to admit defeat.
"Hmph, there are so many Chinese medicine practitioners in our country, and there are plenty of people who know acupuncture. Do we need to beg him? We can just ask his superior physician to treat us. Didn't you hear it just now? That young physician surnamed Li is only a resident physician. The resident, attending physician, and director above him are all better than him."
The middle-aged man snorted coldly and turned around to scold his wife.
…
Next, a nurse drew Sophie's blood and a small amount of bone marrow fluid after puncture, and provided it to Professor Axen and his team for research.
Once Sophie's specific immune deficiency is identified, they will develop the corresponding biologically active reagents.
Huier Hospital provided these experts with a laboratory specifically for their research.
Professor Aixen and his team are racing against time to develop bioactive reagents. Li Quan himself is also busy, continuing to treat Sophie with acupuncture.
He boldly wrote the first prescription.
Of course, he himself does not have the right to prescribe medicine.
This can only be done with the help of a senior physician.
To prescribe Chinese medicine, one needs a TCM practitioner certificate. Director Qin doesn't have one. Only Professor Liu and Professor Tang have one.
Li Quan prescribed the prescription in the name of Professor Liu.
In fact, this prescription should be absolutely safe.
Because Qian Yi had used it on many patients, if it was unsafe or ineffective, it would not have been passed down.
Li Quan's idea was simple. He would first try to treat Sophie with traditional Chinese medicine. If she could be cured, he would not need to use Western medicine.
If the disease cannot be cured by then, we will use the biological reagents developed by Aixen and others.
