On the huge conference table, checklists were spread one by one. In order to prevent the wind from blowing away the checklists, Yang Ping asked the students to close the doors and windows of the entire conference room tightly.
Yang Ping constantly adjusts the position of the checklist, just like a child playing with a jigsaw puzzle. After many adjustments, the checklists are not only arranged according to time, but also classified according to type. Then, different checks are sorted out according to the inherent logical relationship.
.
"Don't touch them. Do you still have any information?" Yang Ping was now completely immersed in the analysis of these checklist puzzle pieces.
The doctor who just went to get the checklist said: "They are all here. Every time he sees a doctor, he packs these checklists in a box, and he takes photos of each checklist."
This is a serious and meticulous person. Perhaps this seriousness can save his life. If there is no better way, according to the statistics of the current literature, it is difficult for Fu Xiaotao to survive more than two years.
Song Zimo was a little nervous on the side: "Did you find anything?"
''These are the objective and complete pictures of the entire disease that we can get. Let's take a look. If each attack is regarded as a part, then analyze it from the part. Indeed, its pathogenesis is based on interleukin 6, but now you put
Putting all the single attacks together, from the perspective of the entire disease process, is the interleukin-6 model still correct?" Yang Ping already had some new ideas in his mind.
When you analyze many things comprehensively and in-depth with your heart, the results will be very different, because no one may have really analyzed it so carefully before you.
Song Zimo, Xu Zhiliang, and every doctor around came closer to take a look, but they all kept a slight distance, for fear that if they were not careful, their exhaled breath would blow away a certain examination sheet.
"Thank you to every doctor for doing their best to improve the examination and collect data. Vascular endothelial growth factor has been detected in many examinations. Although there were no examinations a few times, we can still roughly see the trend." Yang Ping walked around the conference table.
Song Zimo listened to Yang Ping talking to himself and looked at the vascular endothelial growth factor test sheets one by one in chronological order, looking at its development trend from the entire disease process, and then falling into each onset process. Indeed,
, what runs through the entire process is not interleukin 6, but vascular endothelial growth factor.
"Are you saying that vascular endothelial growth factor is the possible basis of the entire disease? Or that the interleukin-6 model is wrong and should be revised to the vascular endothelial growth factor model?" Song Zimo couldn't believe Yang Ping's statement.
The interleukin-6 model is the pathogenesis of Castleman's disease recognized by academic circles. It would be childish to overturn a world-recognized model based on just one case and a bunch of checklists. But this is Professor Yang, and Song Zimo can't help it.
Do not believe.
In fact, Yang Ping has spent a lot of time studying this case in the system space, and he is definitely not pointing out such a question casually now.
Yang Ping walked around the desk, then stopped, put his hands on the conference table, stared at the test sheets, and spoke for five minutes: "We can try to block the process that promotes VEGF production and activates T cells.
pathway to inhibit the occurrence of the disease! If the patient is willing, we will use the advantages of the laboratory to re-analyze his disease."
"Shall I go talk to him?"
"No, I'll talk to you personally."
Yang Ping felt that he seemed to have touched the true pathogenesis of Castleman's disease. After overthrowing the original theory, he felt that his theory was better able to explain Fu Xiaotao's condition. If judged according to the monism of diagnosis, his theory was better than
Interleukin-6 can explain more clinical symptoms.
After the context in his mind was clear, Yang Ping asked the students to take photos of all the checklists as he had just laid them out, and then take photos of each checklist individually. He hoped to draw a trend chart of the changes in these inspection indicators.
This work is relatively tedious, but these doctors and masters are vying to do it.
Without wasting any time, Yang Ping and Song Zimo came to the Department of Oncology. Director Jiang went out to participate in a case discussion. Yang Ping and Song Zimo went to Fu Xiaotao under the guidance of the doctor in charge.
Fu Xiaotao was not in good spirits because he had to use high-dose chemotherapy to save his life not long ago. When he got sick this time, he was hospitalized for the first time and used high-dose hormones to control the disease, and then treated with cetuximab.
After stopping hormones before, the disease did not relapse so quickly. Perhaps this time it was not a recurrence at all, but the disease was not under control. High-dose hormones only temporarily controlled the symptoms. Once the hormones were stopped, the disease continued to develop until this fatal outbreak.
.
"Professor Yang!" Fu Xiaotao got up from the bed with difficulty.
Yang Ping and Song Zimo helped him sit up half-way against the pillows. Fu Xiaotao's parents were waiting beside him. Their faces were obviously unhappy because not only did his condition not improve after Yang Ping's last consultation, but it was also so serious.
However, Fu Xiaotao still believed in Yang Ping. He had checked a lot of information and knew the complexity of his condition.
Yang Ping did not care so much and said to Fu Xiaotao: "We thought more deeply about your disease and found that the existing treatment methods cannot cure your disease at all. We now want to use new methods for you, but the new method
The method is scientific and has not been used by anyone else so far. It carries certain risks, so your consent is required."
"How can that be done?" Fu Xiaotao's mother objected.
Fu Xiaotao's father said gently: "Let the professor finish his sentence. The new method must be experimental. Don't be disgusted when you hear about the experiment. Let's go out first and let the children talk to the professor."
Fu Xiaotao's father took his wife out so as not to interfere with the doctor's communication with his son. Fu Xiaotao's mother followed him out very unhappy.
"Professor Yang, don't worry. They don't understand the scientific research methods you just mentioned. I am willing to sign and participate." Fu Xiaotao fully agreed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yang Ping told him: "After all, it is scientific research, and there are certain risks. Can you accept it? And it is likely to fail again."
Fu Xiaotao smiled bitterly and said: "I know my disease very well, and there is no good way to cure it. Since there is no way, why not try new methods that may be effective now."
"And if we use the new method, we will draw your blood and do a lot of tests because we need to find out the changes in some biochemical indicators in your body." Song Zimo added on the side.
Fu Xiaotao was very determined: "It's okay, you make arrangements."
As a graduate student, Fu Xiaotao checked Yang Ping's thesis. He didn't know it unless he checked it. He was shocked when he checked it. He is an academic expert. How could such a powerful person have time to fool around with you, an ordinary patient? He must have known it well.
I personally came to propose this experimental method, and the desire to survive made Fu Xiaotao firmly grasp this life-saving rope. If he usually wanted to, he would not be able to invite such a big man, but now that someone comes to him, if he doesn't agree, then
You will miss valuable opportunities.
Moreover, Fu Xiaotao always believes that doctors and patients are comrades-in-arms, and the common enemy is disease.
"Do you really agree? Do you want to discuss it with your parents?" Song Zimo reminded.
Fu Xiaotao shook his head: "No, I am an adult and I can make my own decision. If I discuss this matter with them, it will definitely not work. My dad is fine, but my mom will definitely disagree."
"Okay, if you agree, I will talk to the doctor here and transfer you to our department for treatment. All costs for the scientific research part of the treatment are free, and you can also get certain subsidies." Yang Ping put the matter on the spot.
Set it down.
"Thank you! It's settled, you can come to me to sign at any time." Fu Xiaotao was very determined.
