363, Wen Changyun's death
Li Xiqin was also very curious about this tall device, listened to Xiao Zhan's explanation, helped him connect all kinds of wires, and glued some thin metal pieces to the patient's brain.
"Aren't the brain waves disappearing after brain death?"
Li Xiqin couldn't help but ask.
Xiao Zhan's hand didn't stop: "No, the brain is dead for a while, in fact, it can still emit brain waves, and the body is still the largest for a period of time after death, and it will completely disappear after 12 hours." ”
Li Xiqin suddenly said: "So the three souls and seven spirits that everyone said are really possible?" In fact, it is similar to brain waves. ”
"So to speak!"
The two asked and answered, and did some inspections on Wen Changyun together.
Xiao Zhan was very surprised that Li Xiqin was actually able to understand everything, and was good at integrating it, she was a very good student, and her basic cranial nerve medicine was very solid, not at all like a student who had just entered medical school.
And the results of the examination confirmed Li Xiqin's guess, although Wen Changyun's death was not due to this medicine.
However, after taking this medicine, it obviously accelerates the brain hyperactivity, causing the brain to become more stressed, and accelerating the patient's death.
"Have any previous drugs been studied?" Xiao Zhan suddenly thought of a question and asked Li Xiqin.
Li Xiqin shook her head, she asked Xiao Qiao to study this, but Xiao Qiao, plus the teachers and classmates she pulled to study together, did not find anything wrong with these medicines, although there are a little side effects, but for most people, this side effect is extremely mild, and it will not have much consequences.
"The research direction is wrong!" Xiao Zhan said.
Previously, they had focused on the effects on growing children, as previous human trials had been conducted on children. This leads to a blind spot, that is, the feeling that the medicine is only for children.
"You mean......" Li Xiqin instantly understood what he meant, so the original intention and final use of these drugs were not the same.
"I immediately called Xiao Qiao and asked her to redefine the direction of her research!"
Xiao Zhan nodded.
The two told Huo Haiyi and the Wen family about the situation.
Huo Haiyi also immediately understood the situation, this matter is serious, it is not trivial, it is not something that can be done slowly before, if it is not done well, it will affect the lives of many people, and he has to go back immediately to make arrangements.
And the Wen family seems to have suffered a bolt from the blue.
Is that so? How so?
"But this gentleman himself has reached the end of his life." Looking at their grief-stricken appearance, Xiao Zhan thought that it was still necessary to say, "Even if you don't have this medicine, you won't be able to last long." ”
Even so, it would be nice to live one more day. The Wen family's eyes were full of condemnation when they looked at him.
Well-wishers, well-wishers can't do it.
Xiao Zhan touched his nose and decided not to stay to annoy.
Li Xiqin also had the same idea, although she no longer had hatred for Wen Changyun, she couldn't sympathize with his death.
The two of them walked out together, and then they both smiled at this tacit understanding.
Soulmates are hard to find.
Li Xiqin felt that chatting with Xiao Zhan was very enjoyable, and her thoughts on the road of medicine were really strange, completely different from the orthodox medical education she studied. Is it because of studying abroad?
Li Xiqin asked the question.
Xiao Zhan thought for a while: "Probably the research direction I determined myself is neurology and cytology, these two disciplines have been relatively little involved in China before, and they have only started in recent years......"
With Xiao Zhan's cleverness, he quickly learned the domestic set, so he was not satisfied, so he went abroad to start further study.
The human brain should be the most mysterious place in the world, and people will not want to leave.
Li Xiqin asked, "Then do you study Parkinson's?" ”
"I don't research, I just know something." Xiao Zhan said, "Parkinson's pathology is a relatively simple content in our research direction, which is derived from the degeneration and death of dopamine (DA)ergic neurons in the substantia nigra of the midbrain, which causes a significant decrease in the DA content of the striatum and causes disease." ”
"Do you know the cause?"
"Since Parkinson's disease is more common in the elderly, it can be inferred that the cause is basically caused by the degeneration or lesions of brain cells in the elderly."
"But now that there are more and more young people suffering from Parkinson's disease, and there is a trend of getting younger and younger, how can you explain it?"
Xiao Zhan shook his head: "It's not clear. This is not my research direction at the moment. ”
Li Xiqin was slightly disappointed, but he couldn't make it difficult for others. Just because she wants to cure Parkinson's disease, she can't let someone else give up her research direction and study Parkinson's instead, right?
Xiao Zhan looked at her, if before, he didn't want to say more, but today's conversation made him have a very good impression of Li Xiqin.
"My current research direction is the death and regeneration of gray matter in brain cells, which is actually very similar to Parkinson's pathology."
Seeing that Li Xiqin was listening very carefully, Xiao Zhan continued to explain.
"Originally, the gray matter of the brain cannot be regenerated once it is damaged or died, and most of the Alzheimer's syndrome and memory loss and weakness in old age are related to this, but the self-healing of Zhang Junhan and Zuo Zuo fully shows that gray matter can be reborn!"
In fact, it was for this reason that he intervened in the Yao Group's case before.
Li Xiqin's eyes lit up, this is indeed very similar to the death of dopamine neurons in Parkinson's disease.
If Xiao Zhan can study the regeneration of gray matter, then it may bring a ray of hope for Parkinson's healing.
"Dr. Xiao, I wish you an early completion of your research!" Li Xiqin sincerely wished.
"Thank you! Miss Li, may I ask a question? ”
"You say!"
"What do you think after you graduate?"
If he didn't have any ideas, he might be able to invite her to the Cranial Nerve Research Institute, after all, talent is rare. Li Xiqin's comprehension is extraordinary, even if he sets off a little late, he can still catch up.
Li Xiqin's answer was unexpected.
"I should go back to S City, filming, and managing a nursing home."
These are her two goals in life.
Xiao Zhan: ......
He knew that Chu Xingheng and Zhao Minyu had mentioned to him that it was about Parkinson's patients, and Li Xiqin had relatives who died of this disease, so she was obsessed with this, and Xiao Zhan could understand it.
But what the hell is filming?
Li Xiqin seemed to see what he was thinking and smiled slightly.
"Doctor Xiao, if I ask you to be the sitting doctor of the nursing home in the future, would you be willing?"
Xiao Zhan glanced at her: "You can't afford to invite me." ”
"It seems that I have to work hard to make money from filming." Li Xiqin sighed deliberately.
Xiao Zhan suspected that she did it on purpose, but that nursing home did sound like a place to throw money.
"If I need to, I can come back regularly for free clinics."
Where the elderly are, there are many diseases related to the head, and he can also learn about them by the way.
"Then thank you so much Dr. Xiao, good people have good rewards, and Dr. Xiao will definitely live a long life."
Li Xiqin smiled and nodded, and thanked him vigorously.
Xiao Zhan looked at the sky, this person was cheap and behaved.
