Chapter 177: More than ten years of medical academic fraud
Western medicine does a lot of damage to the liver and kidneys. In fact, many doctors are aware of the problems caused by long-term medication because these medicines have clearly labeled side effects on the packaging.
When many doctors prescribe antihypertensive drugs, they will clearly tell you that they have side effects.
But if you have high blood pressure, you can only take this medicine and have no other choice.
Therefore, even if you know there are side effects, there is still nothing you can do. You can only wait until you are done taking it and have other diseases, and then take other medicines.
Is Alzheimer's disease caused by taking medicine?
Many people will tell you no.
Lu Jiu couldn't give a clear answer, but the man's kidney essence deficiency was indeed not caused by illness.
What disease can tirelessly deplete human kidney essence all year round?
"Are you still eating now?" Lu Jiu asked.
"Well, my dad doesn't remember to take medicine now. He forgets every now and then. So my brother and I have been taking turns taking care of him. I feel relieved after watching him take the medicine. And it's not just antihypertensive medicine, but also Huperzine A.
"Taking it is to treat Alzheimer's disease. In recent years, my dad has had coronary heart disease, and the family has almost piled up a mountain of medicine. Every time I ask my dad to take medicine, it's like a war." Kang Peng said with a bitter look on his face.
I can see it.
When Lu Jiu took his pulse, he already knew that the old man had a bad heart.
No wonder, given so many medicines every day, it’s no wonder that the liver and kidneys can handle it. If the liver and kidneys are damaged, how can the heart still function?
"Huperzine A? Don't take that medicine, it's useless." Lu Jiu said.
"Ah? But the doctor said that this medicine is for Alzheimer's disease." Kang Peng asked doubtfully.
"That doctor probably didn't tell you that last year, it was revealed internationally that the author of Alzheimer's disease, the first author to identify the cause of Alzheimer's disease, was suspected of falsifying his paper. It has been almost sixteen or seventeen years ago, so
"All the medicines researched based on the papers he wrote are fake. Not only are they useless, but they will also cause great harm to the body." Lu Jiudao.
In fact, Lu Jiu also saw this when he was working in the hospital.
Everyone in the hospital was discussing this topic at that time.
The cause was that the magazine "Science" published an in-depth investigative report titled "Taint in Academia", which pointed out that a foundational paper in the field of Alzheimer's disease 16 years ago was suspected of fraud. More than that, the first author of the paper
Sylvain Lesne, a neuroscientist at the University of Minnesota, has been accused of possible academic misconduct in more than 20 papers.
The research conclusion drawn in his most important paper provided strong support for the mainstream cause hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease, the "β-amyloid hypothesis", so that countless subsequent studies used his hypothesis as an argument.
, to date, the paper has been cited more than 2,300 times, and all Alzheimer's drugs developed by pharmaceutical companies are based on the β-amyloid protein hypothesis.
As the number of Alzheimer's patients continues to grow, it is also accompanied by huge market demand. According to the "World Alzheimer's Disease Report", with the increase in human life expectancy, about one person in the world will be diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease every 3 seconds.
Alzheimer's disease, it is expected that the number of Alzheimer's patients will increase to 152 million by 2050.
Under the huge market space and rigid demand, pharmaceutical giants are rushing into drug research and development in this field.
But so far, there are no special effects drugs that can cure Alzheimer's disease. In the past one or two decades, more than a hundred new drugs have failed in research and development. The clinical failure rate is as high as 97.3%. It can be called "Tiankeng" in the industry.
What about this neurologist?
After obtaining an investment of over 100 billion yuan, and winning countless medical awards.
As for whether it was sanctioned, Lu Jiu couldn't know it.
In short, all medicines that can treat Alzheimer's disease on the market are useless.
There is no doubt about this.
"Ah? This, why don't he tell me, my dad has eaten for several years!" Kang Peng was a little angry.
Lu Jiudao, "This can't blame him, it was only burst out last year."
"What about Dr. Lu now?" Kang Peng was a little anxious. His brother Kang Xuan also looked at Lu Jiu nervously at this moment.
His father took the fake medicine for several years for no reason. How could he not be annoyed to be a son?
But they have no way, just like Lu Jiu said, it is not necessary to blame the doctor, and the medicine is not done by others.
"The best suggestion I can give in this situation is that there are some medicines. Don't take it if you can eat it. The stone cedar armor you just said is completely stopped. In addition, the medicine of heart disease
I do n’t eat for a long time. I can slowly let your dad try to get rid of this medicine through treatment, and then find a way to solve the problem of antihypertensive drugs. You also said that your dad has taken this medicine for more than 30 years.
Anti -blood pressure, how deep the disease is accumulated, I do n’t need to say that you understand, it ’s impossible to want me to completely adjust your dad. I can only say that try to make your dad’s illness continue to deteriorate.
As for whether his dementia can be good, I dare not guarantee it. "Lu Jiudao.
The five internal organs are damaged, and the kidney essence is deficient. This has been seriously lost.
Coupled with the age of the elderly, the function of the spleen and stomach is not good. Even if it is conditioned, the speed of qi and blood is not as good as young people.
The body does not have sufficient nutrition, and even the medicine of the drug cannot be played. Lu Jiu also has to solve the side effects of western medicine.
This is no less troublesome than cancer. No, it should be said that it is higher than cancer.
Many cancer patients' brains are sober. When God is still there, stomach qi is restored, as long as the spleen and stomach function is normal, the patient can take the initiative to eat, and ensure that their qi and blood can support the five internal organs, so there is at least the direction of conditioning.
For the elderly, God is chaotic, and sometimes even forget to eat without eating, even if he is hungry or not, he will not be able to distinguish it. At this time, the perception ability has basically lost a part.
Fortunately, at least this uncle's ability to move is still. In the late stage, it is really troublesome to lose the ability to move. That is really trouble.
At least Lu Jiu must have a certain way.
"Dr. Lu, can you only do this?" Kang Xuan still had expectations in his eyes. Obviously, he felt that Lu Jiu's ability was not only that. He just saw it for so long and had completely believed in Lu Jiu's medical skills.
You can see the disease of death. Why is this disease that is just a disease with loss of memory?
Lu Jiu smiled helplessly, "The difficulty of the disease is not so divided. The treatment of traditional Chinese medicine depends on whether your body balances and the possibility of recovery. If so, then no matter whether the disease is terminal or not, there are cure.
Even if it is a small disease, it can only be medicine without medicine. "
"Cancer is certainly scary, but as long as Chinese medicine regulates the balance of the five internal organs, even if the cancer cells are still there, the patient's life will not be affected and will be no different from normal people. On the contrary, although Alzheimer's disease is not fatal, if the five internal organs cannot be regulated, the patient's life will not be affected.
If the disease is in a balanced state, then there is nothing we can do to help the disease."
"Your dad has been taking medicine for too long. The medicine has replaced the function of the kidneys. At the same time, the kidneys are severely depleted. He also had kidney stones before. In addition, your dad is old and it is difficult to replenish the kidneys.
Not to mention regulating the balance of the five internal organs. In this case, it is already difficult for me to be effective and reduce the harm of the medicine to your father. If I go one step further and even cure your father, then you will think too highly of me.
"
Do you even know about kidney stones?
Kang Xuan was too surprised to say a word at this moment.
From Lu Jiu's words, he heard two words.
sincere!
But this answer somewhat disappointed him.
Kang Peng patted Kang Xuan on the shoulder and looked at Lu Jiu seriously, "Dr. Lu, we understand what you mean. It is indeed very difficult to cure this disease. I understand. We are satisfied if you can try it."
, as long as my dad’s condition does not continue to worsen, we don’t expect anything else.”
Before the two brothers came here, they had never thought that Lu Jiu could be cured. But just now they saw how powerful Lu Jiu was during the consultation, which made their hearts a little shaken. After listening to Lu Jiu's words, Kang Peng understood even if he didn't understand medicine.
Lu Jiu means.
