Chapter 207: Cancer
On the second day after returning to Kyoto, Li Wenyuan went to Kyoto Medical University to continue his studies in Western medicine, despite the fatigue of the past few days. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Today's Li Wenyuan is famous in China, he can be recognized when he walks on the street, and the students in the school regard him as a star, chasing him after him, asking him for autographs and group photos, making him almost late for class.
Of course, even if he is late, the teacher will not blame, this is the so-called celebrity effect, being able to give Li Wenyuan a lesson, and the teacher feels that it is a blessing that he has cultivated for eight lifetimes.
And this kind of people's excessive admiration for him, although Li Wenyuan can feel it, but he is not complacent because of it.
He felt that he had just done what he should do, and he also hoped that people's enthusiasm for him and Chinese medicine would not be just a flash in the pan and soon fade, he hoped that this was an opportunity for the development of Chinese medicine, so that more and more people could believe in Chinese medicine and believe in the good medicine left by their ancestors.
"Applause!"
"Wow!"
When Li Wenyuan walked into the anatomy classroom, under the leadership of the class leader, the classroom resounded with neat and loud applause, and the eyes that looked at him were full of respect or even worship.
These classmates of Li Wenyuan are all students majoring in Western medicine and clinical medicine, but as sons and daughters of China, they are also very proud of the proud achievements made in medicine in their motherland.
"Student Li, please accept our applause and flowers!" The squad leader said.
When the voice fell, I saw the beautiful female class secretary holding flowers in her hand, walking over and handing them to Li Wenyuan.
Then there was another round of applause.
Li Wenyuan had a smile on his face, and he even felt that he was even happier than the welcome he received at the airport yesterday when he returned to China.
Because these students are the future of the medical community of the motherland, if they can learn Western medicine at the same time, but also have a grasp of traditional Chinese medicine, Li Wenyuan believes that not only the great revival of traditional Chinese medicine is just around the corner, but also a great progress for the entire medical community!
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Li Wenyuan came to class, not to dominate, and then sat back in his place.
The professor of anatomy class also couldn't help but praise Li Wenyuan, and it had been ten minutes before he got to the point.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today, we are going to study the internal organs of the human body!" "We usually refer to the organs of the four major systems of digestion, respiration, urinary and reproduction as internal organs! ”
"Today, let's learn about the digestive system first! The digestive system can be divided into the digestive tube and the digestive gland, which includes the oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine and large intestine. The digestive glands include oral glands, liver, pancreas, and many small glands! ”
With the in-depth study of Western medicine, Li Wenyuan has been able to change his inherent thinking of traditional Chinese medicine, and directly start from Western medicine to understand the problem.
Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to the "surface and inside", the liver and gallbladder are on the outside, the heart and small intestine are on the outside, the spleen and stomach are on the outside, the lungs and large intestine are on the outside, and the kidney and bladder are on the outside, while in Western medicine, there is not only the concept of "outside and inside", but even some viscera and organs are not classified in a human body system.
For example, the heart and small intestine, one belongs to the cardiovascular system and the other belongs to the digestive system.
"Okay, students, please follow me to the dissection table, I am on the corpse, and I will explain to you!" Under the professor's leadership, the students gathered around the dissection table, on which the abdominal cavity of a corpse had been sawed open from the middle, and the viscera organs were exposed.
"Now, everyone should know what I hold in my hand, it's the liver!"
"The liver is the largest gland in the human body, and it participates in the digestion, excretion, detoxification, and metabolism of the human body. A few digressions, I wonder if any of the male students in our class like to drink?
"Alcohol is metabolized by the liver and eventually excreted from the body! Some students blush when they drink alcohol, but in fact, it is because the liver lacks an enzyme called 'alcohol dehydrogenase', which cannot metabolize alcohol, so it causes allergic reactions! ”
Li Wenyuan listened carefully, he belongs to the kind of person who is not drunk after a thousand cups, it seems that it is because the body secretes more "ethanol dehydrogenase" than ordinary people.
"I have one more question about liver that I would like to discuss with you."
The professor said, "Liver cancer! The mortality rate of liver cancer in China accounts for the second highest mortality rate of tumors, and in clinical practice, once discovered, most of them are advanced. If it can be detected early, liver resection is the most effective treatment at present! Overall, the five-year survival rate after liver cancer resection is 30% to 40%! ”
"What? This...... So low! "The students were shocked to hear that the five-year survival rate of liver cancer patients after surgery is so low.
Clinically, the "cure rate" is not said, because the disease is incurable, and only the "remission rate" is used.
For cancer, it can no longer be described by "remission rate", but by "survival rate", such as five-year survival rate and ten-year survival rate.
As for cancer, it is most appropriate to describe cancer cells, the culprit of cancer, with good intentions!
Because of the infinite proliferation of cancer cells, it was originally intended to repair the tissues and organs in the human body that have been repeatedly damaged, but unfortunately once this repair process is started, it cannot be stopped, and in the end good intentions do bad things and kill people!
"Cancer, not only in traditional Chinese medicine, but also in Western medicine, is also a disease that is difficult to cure!" Li Wenyuan recalled the record of tumors in "Xianjia Prescription Medicine", "Lack of righteousness, external sense of six lewdness, internal injury and seven feelings, diet and rest, and external evil poison...... Here are the five pathogenesis of tumors! Even if I am asked to treat it, I can only use the Nine Xuanyou Dragon Needle to use the power of aura to correct and dispel evil spirits, and remove the pathogenesis in the patient's body! ”
"Okay, students, please follow me to continue studying, I am now holding a section of human intestines in my hand, can any student tell you that I am holding the large intestine or the small intestine now?"
"Teacher, I know, it's the ...... of the large intestine"
After studying the whole anatomy class, Li Wenyuan had an intuitive and accessible understanding of the internal organs of the human body, which was impossible in ancient times, because the ancient Chinese people paid attention to keeping the whole corpse, and they never wanted people to have their intestines and stomachs after death.
In this way, Li Wenyuan also left a question in his heart: How did the ancients, who rarely did anatomical observations, summarize the "inside and outside" of the viscera?
Jingle bells!
The bell rang for the end of class.
Li Wenyuan felt that the class passed quickly and gained a lot, so he helped cover the body with white plastic sheeting and left the classroom.
As soon as he walked out of the teaching building, he saw Su Xue standing on the side of the road, waiting for him as always.
