Yu Zhiming came to Zhizhen Building of Huashan Hospital and first performed a physical examination on the little boy from Chaozhou.
After an inspection, Yu Zhiming discovered that the little boy's physical weakness was due to the sequelae of the last injury.
The scar growth in the injured area of the liver compressed a major blood vessel. Three small nerves and two small blood vessels in the abdomen were also cut off and were not repaired.
Yu Zhiming mapped out the problems detected and transferred the little boy to the Liver Disease Research Center for further treatment...
Grand rounds, solving the difficult patients accumulated in the Zhizhen Building, checking and confirming suspected very early-stage cancer patients, and screening out ten funded late-stage cancer patients. These tasks are a non-stop busy day, which makes half of the day leisurely.
Yue Zhiming is really not used to it.
Fortunately, even though Yu Zhiming was on vacation, he continued to exercise every day without stopping. Although he was very tired after a day's work, he still persevered.
After six o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming returned to Zhenlou from the oncology department, preparing to rest for half an hour before treating patients with lupus erythematosus.
However, he unexpectedly found Duan Yi, Dr. Liu Yun and their student Shan Linlin waiting for him in the soundproof office.
Yu Zhiming found that all three of them had happy faces, especially Duan Yi, who looked like she was about to be unable to hold back her excitement.
"Is there great news?"
Duan Yi spoke first and shouted: "Teacher, we have discovered the reason why Lu's child is so stupid."
Lu’s child is stupid?!
Yu Zhiming immediately remembered that it was the family of Lu Yunjin, the owner of the pharmaceutical glass company who invested heavily in his hometown.
His clan would give birth to stupid children from time to time.
Yu Zhiming discovered during an examination in May that the pregnant woman in his family had inexplicably changed from twins to singletons, and he discovered the abnormality.
Next, all follow-up investigations and research on the pregnant women in the Lu family were handed over to Dr. Liu Yun.
As for Yu Zhiming, Duan Yi participated in this research project on his behalf.
More than five months have passed. Has there been any result?
Yu Zhiming first glared at Duan Yi and criticized: "Dr. Liu, what are you talking about right now? You have no manners at all!"
Liu Yun chuckled and said: "We said we found the cause, but based on Dr. Yu's discovery of pregnancy abnormalities in pregnant women, we finally discovered the exact problem that caused the fetus to be stupid."
"Strictly speaking, it's not a big discovery."
Yu Zhiming said: "This is a big problem that has troubled the Lu family for hundreds of years. It has been difficult to find a cure all over the world. Now it has finally been discovered. It is really gratifying."
After a pause, he asked: "What caused the problem? Can it be treated by existing medical methods?"
Liu Yun looked at Duan Yi, who was holding her mouth tightly, and said with a smile: "Dr. Duan, you should report."
After receiving the authorization, Duan Yi smiled happily and said: "Thank you Dr. Liu for giving me this opportunity!"
She looked at Yu Zhiming again and said solemnly: "Teacher, in the past few days, we have conducted detailed anatomy on the two abnormal fetuses that you discovered before were twins that turned into singles."
"Just today, I finally made a discovery."
Duan Yi said with a small mouth: "We found that the blood vessels in the frontotemporal region of these two fetuses were abnormally developed, and the capillary distribution was about one-third less than in other parts of the brain."
"It is the lack of one-third of the capillaries that prevents the frontotemporal area from receiving adequate oxygen and nutrient supply, leading to developmental delays and ultimately causing people to be born stupid."
Duan Yi sighed again: "This kind of congenital brain development problem is simply impossible to treat later in life."
"The only thing we can do is detect it in time and terminate the pregnancy."
Yu Zhiming asked: "How to find out in time?"
Duan Yi glanced at Liu Yun, who was standing aside, and saw that she had no intention of speaking, and continued: "The best way is of course to find the abnormality of twins turning into singles at the beginning of pregnancy."
"Aborting the pregnancy at this time will naturally cause the least harm to the pregnant woman."
"It's just that this change occurs within two or three weeks of the first trimester, and it is difficult to detect it with existing technical detection methods."
After a pause, she continued: "The method we think of is to puncture the fetal jugular vein to collect blood in the second and third trimester of pregnancy to measure its oxygen content."
"It's just that this method is difficult and risky, and the measured values are sometimes difficult to make accurate judgments, and errors in judgment are likely to occur."
Yu Zhiming rolled his eyelids and said: "In other words, although you have discovered the problem, the most effective solution still cannot be achieved without me. Does the Lu family's daughter-in-law have to come to me every day for check-ups when she is pregnant?"
Duan Yi said sarcastically: "Teacher, your body detection ability cannot be achieved by current technical detection methods."
"The best screening method is only if you discover the abnormality of the Lu family's daughter-in-law's twins turning into singles at an early stage."
Duan Yi whispered again: "Of course, we will continue to study and try to find a more accurate inspection method to free you, teacher, from this kind of routine work."
Yu Zhiming rolled his eyelids again and said: "Duan Yi, you always think about detection methods, but never think about solving this problem fundamentally?"
"Teacher, how to solve it?" Duan Yi asked with wide eyes.
Yu Zhiming said with some hatred that iron cannot become steel: "Why are you so ignorant? The main abnormality of the Lu family's daughter-in-law's fetal stupidity is that the twins turned into singles."
"Because this change process occurs in the very early stages of pregnancy, existing technical means cannot detect it."
"Then we will directly put an end to this process..."
Yu Zhiming looked at Duan Yi, who was still confused, as silly as his niece, and raised his hand to flick her forehead.
"Let's do in vitro fertilization."
"We let the fertilized eggs culture outside the body for a few more days to naturally screen out inferior embryos, and then select the best-developed fertilized egg for implantation."
"This method should be able to effectively prevent the occurrence of multiple births, and there will be no chance of multiple births turning into single births."
When Duan Yi heard this, her eyes widened again, and she said excitedly: "Oh my, I didn't even think of such a simple solution to the root cause."
"The teacher is right, I am not enlightened, hehe."
Liu Yun also smiled and said: "More than Doctor Xiao Duan, I didn't think of this simple solution myself."
"Dr. Yu, your mind is really broad. There is no problem that you can't solve."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said: "The main reason is that your thinking has been solidified for a while. Even without my reminder today, you would have thought of this method."
Liu Yun said seriously: "Even if we can finally think of it, compared with what you blurted out, Dr. Yu, there is a real gap in strength."
"Dr. Yu, you are what you are today, not just because of your super-sensitive hearing. Your intelligence also makes us amazed and astonished."
Yu Zhiming liked to hear this.
In fact, Yu Zhiming also wants others to know that in addition to the possibility provided by his super-sensitive hearing, his ability to become what he is today is also inseparable from his self-improvement, intelligence, hard work and self-discipline...
Suddenly, Yu Zhiming had a feeling that he still had many advantages.
Liu Yun continued: "Now we have found the exact reason why the Lu family's fetuses are stupid, and we have found the problem."
"The focus of the next work is to solve the problem. The in vitro fertilization proposed by Dr. Yu still needs some experiments to verify the feasibility."
Liu Yun explained: "Contact Boss Lu and ask him to send a few young couples over..."
