Chapter 426: 50 Grams of Dirt [Ask for a Monthly Pass, Ask for a Subscription]
After this diagnostic meeting, the medical team and the command center agreed to do a clinical trial.
The medical team selected 10 patients and gave them ordinary soil to see if there was any effect on relieving symptoms and what changes would occur to the patients' bodies and minds.
As for the anomalous soil with the eggs of the parasite, it is not within the scope of the experiment for the time being.
Ten patients were quickly selected to participate in the experiment, five teachers and five students, men and women, aged 17-45, all voluntary.
The patients are all in a similar condition, in fact, their mental state is now close to delirium, and the psychological intervention of the medical team is completely ineffective, they are constantly trying to eat dirt, as long as there is mud to give, the patients are rushing to participate in the experiment.
These ten patients were all admitted to the senior solitary isolation ward, with monitoring and filming process, as well as ECG monitors, gastric lavage machines, old printing stones and other equipment.
Wang Jinbo, the director of education, is one of them.
If you usually talk about Director Wang, everyone will give a thumbs up. Director Wang is in his forties, and his style is serious but he is very popular with the students, because Director Wang is sincerely thinking about the students, does not engage in bureaucracy, and has led several senior high school years, and his grades are very good, which has improved the reputation of Mobei Senior High School.
On weekdays, Director Wang always wears a decent casual suit and combs his hair neatly, like an old pedant.
When the students saw him, although they privately joked about how much hairspray Director Wang used, they were really driven by positive emotions when they looked at the director's mental energy.
But now, after more than 30 hours of tossing, Director Wang is a lot haggard, his hair is messy, he has two dark circles under his eyes, deep bags under his eyes are hanging, and there is a suppressed and strange desire in his eyes, making him seem like an addict who has gone and returned to the drug rehabilitation center.
"How did you do it, how did you do it......" Wang Jinbo sat on the edge of the hospital bed, constantly muttering, scratching his hair and scratching his throat.
He felt like he had been hungry for more than ten days, wanting to eat, only wanting to eat, but only wanting to eat one thing.
Before entering this ward, Wang Jinbo was arranged to do some examinations, and now he has been connected to ECG monitoring by the nurse.
The surveillance camera filmed all this, and at this time, the door of the ward was opened, and several medical staff wearing heavy protective clothing walked in, all of them were doctors, and several nurses were pushing a stainless steel tool cart with some drugs, syringes, and an instrument disc covering something.
"Ah......" Wang Jinbo vaguely smelled a little dirt, and he was almost about to pounce, using all his strength to barely control himself.
Si Kouxian and Wang Ruoxiang are both in the team of doctors, and they have to make clinical observations, not only the index data recorded by the instrument, but also the changes in the mental sensing level.
"Director Wang." Si Kouxian communicated with the patient, "We brought you 50 grams of soil. ”
50 grams is equivalent to an egg, and it is not fatal for normal people to eat 50 grams of soil at a time, which may cause indigestion, bloating, diarrhea, etc., but it is also completely possible for the body to be free of discomfort, which varies from person to person, but in general it is not an amazing amount.
Moreover, the soil was transported from the south, not from the northern part of the desert, the two places are very far away, and they have been tested for no parasites, bacteria, viruses or harmful substances, and the patients are provided with these clean and healthy soft soils.
"50 grams!?" Wang Jinbo exclaimed, disappointed, and suddenly became a little more impatient.
How much is 50 grams? One bite or two?
"Yes, 50 grams, let's see the situation first." Si Kouxian just said, with the patient's current state, if he is allowed to eat, he may eat until his stomach bursts.
"Okay...... Where is it? Wang Jinbo didn't care so much at first, and sure enough, he saw the nurse open the lid of the instrument tray, and a small lump of yellow-brown soil was placed on the plate, and the nurse pushed the tool cart to the side of the bed, Wang Jinbo hurriedly reached out and grabbed the mud ball and stuffed it into his mouth.
His cheeks suddenly stretched out, and his chewing muscles bit frantically, devouring the mud, so greedy and anxious.
Wang Jinbo did not lose his mind, so he was also ashamed and painful about his behavior, but he really couldn't control his impulses......
At the same time, the doctors looked nervous, and the results of this clinical experiment were important.
If the patient can get mental satisfaction from this, at least there is some relief, and there are no bad changes in the body, the diet can be restored, and the functional and mental state can be maintained. If there are such good results, then pica can be used to treat these patients.
50 grams of soil a day, the human body can hold up, there are cases like that in the world, after eating for more than ten years, there is no problem with the body.
And now there is a lack of time, what is needed is to control the epidemic, not to let the locust disease spread, and to avoid any connection between these patients and the abnormal area.
"Hmm, hmm......" Wang Jinbo let out a strange swallowing sound, licking every finger he had grabbed the dirt clean, and then the instrument plate.
Wang Ruoxiang looked at the ECG monitor, and the patient's heart rate and blood pressure were rising.
The rational monitoring stone and the old seal stone did not react, and she sensed the spirit of Director Wang around her...... It seems to be more fanatical......
"Anything else? Anything else? Wang Jinbo's middle-aged face was a little red, and the intention in his eyes had not disappeared, "It's not enough, it's really not enough...... I don't think I've ever tasted it, it doesn't taste like this, it's not the same as I thought......"
The patients didn't know where the soil they ate came from, and no one had revealed it, so they would have thought it was Mobei's dirt.
Only now, the doctors look at each other, and the patients seem to be able to eat differently, even if they have never eaten that abnormal soil.
But does regular dirt work? Or can there be a placebo effect?
"Director Wang, it's just 50 grams today." Si Kouxian said, "Do you feel like you want to eat something else now?" ”
"No......" Wang Jinbo's face became redder and redder, turned white, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, covering his abdomen, "Stomach hurts......"
Seeing that the patient's heart rate soared to 145 beats per minute, obviously suffering a lot, Si Kou Xian gave an order: "Gastric lavage!" The crowd sprang into action.
The doctors' hearts sank, but they had already calculated that the gastric lavage machine was moved to prevent this from happening.
Apomorphine is also mixed as an emetic, although this drug can be effective when injected subcutaneously for 5 minutes, but there are too many side effects, and it will also affect the patient's spirit, and in severe cases, confusion and visual hallucinations will occur, so it is not necessary not to use it.
At this time, before the nurses had inserted the gastric lavage tube into the patient, Wang Jinbo suddenly vomited out of the filthy basin next to the bed.
The stench rose, and the freshly eaten dirt, mixed with yellow stomach acid and bright red blood, splattered and fell into the filth basin.
