Chapter 1505: Folk Remedies for Serious Illnesses
Monday is here again.
Because the so-called danger from the South Peninsula was lifted and the action video incident was resolved, the security around Yu Zhiming was restored from two guards to a single guard.
At around 8:20 in the morning, Yu Zhiming arrived at the underground parking lot of Huashan Hospital and saw Zhou Luo waiting there.
Isn’t this a bit too hasty?
Yu Zhiming got off the car, took a dead little white mouse in a specimen bag handed to him by Zhou Luo, and kneaded it a few times.
"Death from cardiac arrest. No obvious abnormalities were found in other organs."
Zhou Luo asked worriedly, "That is to say, the substance my father is testing will attack the heart. What about my mother?"
Yu Zhiming consoled her by saying, "The examination I performed that day revealed no heart problems. Animal testing and human testing differ significantly in some respects."
"Your father is an experienced pathology expert. You have to trust his ability."
Zhou Luo said bitterly, "I'm just worried that my dad has been blinded by profit and can't see the danger."
Yu Zhiming patted Zhou Luo on the shoulder and advised: "Your father and your mother have been together for more than 30 years, and your mother is pregnant again. Your father will act cautiously."
"Don't worry too much..."
When he arrived at the third underground floor of Zhizhen Building, Yu Zhiming was somewhat surprised to see Fang Yu waiting in the big office.
"What's up?"
Fang Yu said with a smile, "The work in the studio has been sorted out. Today is the beginning of the week. I came here to listen to your instructions, Doctor Yu."
"Also, regarding your wedding preparations, there are some things that need to be discussed with Zhou Mo."
Yu Zhiming nodded gently and said, "There are no instructions, and you don't need to ask for instructions early and report late. If there is anything, we can contact each other by phone."
"As for wedding matters, you can contact Qing Ning and Zhou Mo directly."
Fang Yu hummed, then continued, "Doctor Yu, the day before and the day of your wedding, the Gu family has already booked two five-star hotels near Pujiang No. 1."
"Since many of the wedding guests are accomplished medical professionals, and it's rare for them to get together, why not take the opportunity to hold some medical exchange events?"
this……
Yu Zhiming felt a little speechless and said, "Aren't weddings just about eating and drinking? Why are there academic activities involved?"
"The hotel has supporting meeting rooms and activity rooms. If guests want to communicate, we can let them organize themselves."
"Yes, Doctor Yu!" Fang Yu looked obedient.
Yu Zhiming felt that this guy might be hypocritical, so he reached out and pointed at her, then at Zhou Mo beside him.
"This is my wedding with Qing Ning, so keep it pure and don't mix in any messy things."
Fang Yu nodded again and watched Yu Zhiming enter the soundproof office, watching the soundproof door close tightly.
She turned to look at Zhou Mo and asked, "Are we still going to do it? Considering Dr. Yu's age, I think it's a little early to hold a seminar on Dr. Yu's medical achievements."
Zhou Mo said, "Although Dr. Yu is young and has only been a doctor for a few years, he has achieved many medical accomplishments that have long surpassed the achievements of many medical experts in their entire lives."
Although Zhou Mo said this, he was still a little worried in his heart. He then said, "Well, let's not rush to decide. Let's discuss it with Dean Li and Dean Gu first."
She then looked at Zhou Luo, Shen Qi, Sui Chi, and Duan Yi in the large office and said, "There will be big-name artists performing at the wedding. As students, you should also show your appreciation."
Zhou Luo smiled and said, "We are already preparing and rehearsing in secret. We will make sure that everyone will be amazed when the time comes."
Duan Yi asked curiously, "Hey, Momo, what do you think?"
Zhou Mo chuckled and said, "In addition to the second round of the fashion model show, our bridesmaids' group show is also being prepared."
Duan Yi blinked and asked, "Momo, you should belong to the teacher's side, how come you are the bridesmaid?"
Zhou Mo smiled and said, "This is because your master's wife and I are close friends who can talk about anything..."
Monday is Yu Zhiming's outpatient day.
The busyness made time fly by. If Yu Zhiming hadn’t been reminded by his stomach, he wouldn’t have known that it was already lunch time.
He finished his morning work and returned to his soundproof office, only to find that Old Man Liu had come over again to eat lunch.
"The hotel food is not to your taste?"
“It’s true that some southern dishes are hard to get used to.”
Mr. Liu replied, and then said, "I came here specially today, and I have something to tell you."
After a pause, he asked, "You must have heard the saying that folk remedies can cure serious illnesses, right?"
Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "Of course I've heard of it, but I don't believe it. Folk remedies that can cure serious illnesses are no longer folk remedies. They have long been compiled and developed by knowledgeable people."
Elder Liu chuckled and said, "What you said makes sense. To be honest, our Liu family's secret recipe for treating lupus erythematosus also originated from a folk remedy. After several generations of continuous improvement, it has achieved its current therapeutic effect."
He took a bite of fish and a sip of soup, then continued, "This folk remedy, I'm talking about a real folk remedy, not some fake remedy made up by quacks and con men. The reason it's a folk remedy is mainly because of the uncertainty of its therapeutic effect."
"The rumour that it can cure serious illnesses is more like a blind cat catching a dead mouse, purely by chance. For most patients, this folk remedy has basically no therapeutic effect."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "If this folk remedy happens to cure a serious illness, it might not be because of the folk remedy."
"Either the patient had a special constitution and recovered on their own, or the patient was misdiagnosed and didn't have a serious illness."
Old Liu laughed and said, "It seems that Zhiming, you still have some misunderstandings about this true folk remedy."
After a pause, Mr. Liu suddenly said seriously, "Zhiming, I have two friends who are also traditional Chinese medicine practitioners."
"They have two folk remedies that can really cure serious illnesses: one for diabetes and the other for uremia."
diabetes?
Uremia?
In the scope of modern medicine, these are all chronic diseases that can only be controlled but not cured.
Yu Zhiming didn't even bother to raise his eyelids and asked, "Mr. Liu, what is the success rate of the folk remedies your two friends have for treating diabetes and uremia?"
Elder Liu said somewhat embarrassedly, "The chances are not high. Zhiming, you know that if the treatment was effective, it wouldn't be called a folk remedy. It would have long been a national treasure."
Yu Zhiming pressed on, "What are the specific chances of success?"
Liu Laodao said, "Well, this folk remedy for treating diabetes is good for treating early-stage patients whose symptoms aren't that obvious. It can cure about one patient out of every one or two years who comes to see the doctor."
"The folk remedies for treating uremia also have less severe symptoms, so the chances are higher. About one out of a hundred patients can be cured."
Old Liu noticed the sneer on Yu Zhiming's face and said solemnly, "Zhiming, I know what you're thinking. I can guarantee it with my reputation."
"This cure is real. It is definitely not something my two friends fabricated to maintain the popularity of the folk remedy and lure patients in for treatment."
"If they really wanted to falsify the data, they wouldn't have made the probability of cure so low."
"Zhiming, don't you think so?"
Yu Zhiming nodded and asked, "Mr. Liu, what is your purpose in telling me this?"
Elder Liu said slowly, "I think that with your abilities, working with my two friends, we should be able to effectively improve the folk remedy, greatly increasing its success rate and benefiting more patients."
"Zhiming, what do you think?"
Yu Zhiming pondered for a moment and said, "Even if we can only cure one out of ten people with diabetes or uremia, it would be a great medical achievement."
"Mr. Liu, I am indeed a little moved."
"However, Mr. Liu, it's not that I don't believe you. I need to investigate this matter and confirm whether the folk remedies they have can indeed cure those two diseases."
Old Liu smiled and said, "This is as it should be. True gold is not afraid of fire. You can investigate as you wish..."
