215 Don't Be Academic Fraud (2/5)
Chapter 215 Don't be an academic fraud (25)
"Old Bao, what do you think of this?" After walking out of the ward, Director Kong pondered for a long time and asked.
"Um?"
"Su Yun, The Lancet." Director Kong said very simply, two words, covering all meanings.
"You're not a thoracic surgeon, you don't know Su Yun." Director Bao thought for a while, then said solemnly, "Two years ago, he engaged in 3D stem cell printing and heart transplantation. I heard it for the first time and thought it was Just kidding. What 3D printing, is the technology so advanced now? Isn’t this nonsense.”
"and after?"
"At that time, I didn't know that something like 3D printing could be used clinically, but I was slapped in the face by this little guy Su Yun." Director Bao said and smiled.
Although Su Yun was slapped in the face, but there is no resentment and anger, the smile is somewhat relieved, and more is expected.
Every doctor has expectations for the clinical application of new technologies. After all, that means more patients are treated and live longer. Those who can't be slapped in the face... In the future, they should be cautious in their words and deeds, and don't give people a chance to slap them in the face.
"3D printing, I've only heard that the orthopedic guys use it for artificial joints. I haven't studied it, what did that little guy Su Yun do?" Director Kong asked.
"Su Yun and Huaxi's laboratory contacted a joint project. Autologous stem cell cultivation, 3D technology to replicate the heart, and then autologous transplantation."
Director Bao said, slightly stunned.
After a few seconds, he turned around, shook his head, and said, "Thinking about it now, it still feels incredible."
Director Kong also felt incredible, "He really did it?"
"That's it." Director Bao said: "The mouse's stem cells are cloned and replicated, and the heart is 3D printed and then autologously transplanted. Su Yun did the whole operation. You know, the size of the mouse, the operation must use a microscope. There is no way to use a microscope outside our chest. It is said that this kid went to the trauma surgery department and stayed there for three months. The director of the trauma surgery department told him to keep him, and even asked someone to find Su Yun’s house.”
"Yeah." Director Kong replied, he could feel that feeling.
"Su Yun ran back and used a microscope to do a heart transplant on the mouse, and nursed it for another 107 days."
"and after?"
"Finally... It is said that the mice were so healthy that nothing happened. They broke the cage in the middle of the night and ran away on their own, causing the experiment to be interrupted."
"..." Director Kong thought at first that he had been guarding him for 107 days. In the end, the guinea pig died with the efforts of the ventilator and other equipment, and took his last breath.
Unexpectedly, the guinea pig ran away alive!
This surgery was so successful it couldn't be more successful!
No wonder Su Yun was able to publish an article in The Lancet. This is a skill.
"sharp!"
"I just heard that Yunlong and the others also wanted to do it later. Although the operation was done, there were obvious problems with the postoperative care. After several attempts, none of them survived for three days."
"Huh?" Director Kong's heart moved slightly.
"This little guy won't disappear for too long. I guessed it when he left the imperial capital. But I didn't expect it..."
"I didn't expect anything? It brought a younger boss?"
"To be honest, at that time... no, now that he came to be my doctoral student, I must apply to the college to apply for exemption from the examination, plus all the scholarships. Even if the scientific research funds in my hand give him some projects, it is not impossible. But Lao Kong, why did he find such a small boss?" Director Bao said regretfully.
"Little boss? Let me tell you, you've done surgery all your life, and it's not what other people do, what do you do? No matter how awesome you are, you're just a surgeon." When Director Bao mentioned Zheng Ren, Director Kong His expression became serious immediately, "Liver cancer, most of the transformation pathways are hepatitis B - liver cirrhosis - liver cirrhosis nodules - liver cancer. Many patients are not taking drugs to control the activity of hepatitis B virus, so the progress is very fast. In the process of transforming small cirrhotic nodules into liver cancer nodules, it is difficult to distinguish clearly from the perspective of imaging analysis. In the past, the whole liver was bleached with iodized oil. As long as the iodized oil remained, it was Liver cancer. But doing this..."
"You don't need to teach me, the operation he performed is really that important?" Director Bao frowned, looking at Director Kong who was a little emotional, and didn't understand why Director Kong, who had always been calm, devoted himself to Dr. Zheng's operation So much... enthusiasm?
"From my point of view, it is definitely more meaningful than the heart transplant done by Su Yun. Do you know how many patients with liver cirrhosis there are in the country? If we can use technical means to make a differential diagnosis at an early stage, although the liver cirrhosis cannot be The transition to liver cancer has stopped, but the average person's life expectancy can be extended by more than a year!"
"..." Director Kong's words made Director Bao stunned.
If that's the case, it's absolutely significant.
The two fell silent and did not continue to chat.
Zheng Ren was sitting in front of him just now, and the picture of Su Yun standing behind him appeared in front of them almost at the same time.
Heroes have been young since ancient times, but the speed of this emergence is too fast and unbelievable.
"It's not another gene editing technology." Such a thought appeared in their minds at the same time.
Silence and leave.
Director Kong waved his hand, said goodbye to Director Bao, and returned to the interventional department.
"Director, you're back." Shen Yuanzong saw Director Kong coming back and greeted him.
"Well." Director Kong returned to his office absent-mindedly.
Sitting in the office, Director Kong thought of gene editing technology.
It was a bioengineering leader who published an article on gene editing technology in Nature Biotechnology, which aroused strong attention at home and abroad, and some even called it a "Nobel Prize-level" experimental result.
Unfortunately, this gene editing technology cannot replicate the experimental data. In other words, it is very likely that the data is falsified.
The team later applied to the journal Nature Biotechnology to withdraw the paper.
Although the lid is tightly covered, the industry believes that the data cannot be repeated, which at least proves that the test is meaningless.
Of course, similar incidents are not the only ones in the country.
This kind of thing happens 2-3 times a year around the world.
That Dr. Zheng Renzheng from Haicheng must have used some kind of "special" method, the more Director Kong thinks about it, the more likely it is.
Dr. Zheng is only a hospital chief in Haicheng. Such a major technological advancement cannot happen to him... Even if there is a certain probability, the probability is extremely low.
Then there is Su Yun's attitude, refusing others to do experimental surgery.
Is this simply wanting to cover up!
Could it be that Su Yun's previous operation of the mouse heart transplant was also false data, and the experiment could not be repeated?
…………
Autologous stem cells to grow organs and transplant them, I heard from a friend from Huaxi two years ago, but they are only livers. Hope the research goes well. Hope to put it into clinical practice as soon as possible.
