Chapter 540: Be Prepared
At 10:20 in the morning, Yu Zhiming came to the confinement center and adjusted the fetal positions of nine pregnant women with difficult labor positions.
Then, he immediately conducted pregnancy checks on four pregnant women who successfully conceived multiple babies through in vitro fertilization.
According to Yu Zhiming's careful investigation, he found that two of the pregnant women needed fetal reduction surgery.
The final result of the communication was that the pregnant woman with triplets was willing to undergo surgery to reduce one of the fetuses, while the other pregnant woman with twins left the hospital with her family.
At this time, it was also time for lunch.
Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning came to Gu Qingran's office together.
I found that he had already prepared a large, steaming pot of stewed goose with plenty of side dishes including dried beans, potatoes, vermicelli noodles, tofu, and spare ribs.
Yu Zhiming found that as more and more people became aware of his appetite, when they invited him to dinner, they tended to increase the portion of the dishes and reduce the number of dishes.
Maybe it’s because this model saves both time and money?
The staple food was pancakes sent by Yu Zhiming.
The pancakes that I will give as gifts to next year are divided into several types.
There are five or six kinds of pancakes, including millet pancakes, wheat pancakes, cornmeal pancakes with beans, etc.
Qingling, who had tasted it several times before, took the wheat pancake and handed it to Gu Qingran.
"Brother, just eat this kind. It's easier to chew. The other kinds of pancakes are harder on your teeth."
Gu Qingran glanced at the paper-thin food in his hand, took a careful bite, and savored it for a moment.
"It has the aroma of grain, and it's a bit hard on the teeth."
Yu Zhiming smiled gently, took the pancake in one hand and the goose meat with chopsticks in the other, and started eating.
Gu Qingran tried hard to finish a pancake, but then stopped eating because he was so tired that his teeth hurt.
As he picked up some food, he said, "Zhiming, I received a call from Luo Qingqing this morning."
"She mentioned the donation and said the check would be in the mail on Monday."
Yu Zhiming said, "The hospital can just follow the normal donation process."
"I'm not short of money now."
Yu Zhiming pondered for a moment and said, "Let's schedule her physical examination for tomorrow at noon."
He thought of something else and asked, "Dean Gu, I'm going to visit your parents tomorrow afternoon. Will you be there?"
Gu Qingran laughed and said, "How could I be absent from such an important historical moment?"
"Zhu Ying will be there too."
Yu Zhiming exhaled lightly and said in a relaxed tone, "It's good that you're here. I don't have to be so nervous. It would be awkward sitting across from my uncle and aunt in silence."
Gu Qingran said happily: "You are still nervous? You must have met many important people, right?"
Yu Zhiming defended himself, "That's different. No matter who the important person is, they come to me to ask me to examine their body or diagnose their illness."
"I have a psychological advantage."
“Going to my uncle and aunt’s house is different!”
Gu Qingran glanced at her sister, who was smiling, and said, "Going to see my parents, don't you have any psychological advantage?"
"Lime is completely devoted to you."
"If my parents threatened to sever ties with her, she would probably turn around and leave with you without hesitation."
Yu Zhiming smiled gently and said, "Marriage is a union of two families. Qing Ning and I are together, so naturally I hope to get the blessings of both sides' parents."
“I hope to be recognized and liked by my uncles and aunts.”
These words made Gu Qingning look very sweet.
Gu Qingran nodded with satisfaction and said, "Although my parents had some opinions about you before, they are very satisfied with you now."
"You'll know when you go there tomorrow."
"I'll tell you one more thing..."
Gu Qingran said softly, "After confirming the time for your visit, my parents started preparing the ingredients."
"The chef who will come to our house to cook has already been booked."
Yu Zhiming smiled broadly and said, "I'm really flattered that you attach so much importance to it."
"For you and for Qing Ning, it's only right that we pay attention to it."
Gu Qingran chuckled and looked at his younger sister again.
She stared at Yu Zhiming with moist eyes, as if Yu Zhiming was the only one in her world.
Gu Qingran suddenly felt a little sad.
"Time flies by so fast. The naughty and crybaby I used to be has grown up and is getting married now."
Gu Qingran sighed with mixed feelings and then changed the subject.
"Zhiming, did the government's Two Sessions affairs committee contact you this morning?"
"No!"
Yu Zhiming replied, then took out his phone and checked the call logs, confirming, "No one called me this morning."
"They must have directly removed me from the list."
Gu Qingran said seriously, "Zhiming, if someone blames you for this incident, or even accuses you of something, tell them..."
"It's better not to use other people's banners. My previous reasons for asking for leave were not inadequate."
Gu Qingran sighed softly and said, "No matter how good your reasons are, they will naturally think that you came to Ning'an to work for the lucrative income."
"It's selfish and disregards the overall situation."
"We also have to worry about the possibility that they might take their anger out on Huashan Hospital, perhaps by finding some excuse to cut some of its financial allocations."
"No way?" Yu Zhiming looked unconvinced.
"Of course, the possibility of taking out his anger on the hospital is very small. Huashan Hospital is not a place that can be easily bullied."
"But it's always better to be prepared."
After a pause, Gu Qingran chuckled again and said, "Zhiming, you don't have to worry about anyone taking it too seriously. I've already mentioned your request for leave to that leader."
"The leaders said that talented and promising young people like you should be treated with extra care and that they should create as many convenient conditions as possible for your growth."
"With this statement from the leader, we don't have to worry about anyone investigating."
Yu Zhiming felt uncomfortable about waving such a big banner, but he also understood Gu Qingran's concerns.
Just like Gu Qingran said, be prepared, so as to avoid troubles...
After lunch, Yu Zhiming originally wanted to go personally to deliver the New Year gift to Academician Zhang Yuanchao.
It was only when I went to the Gastric Disease Research Center that I found out that Academician Zhang was not there, but his grandson Luan Guoqing was there.
In this situation, Yu Zhiming gave the New Year gift to Luan Guoqing and asked him to pass it on...
In order to save time, Yu Zhiming did not take a break at noon and started working directly.
He first performed a fetal reduction surgery on the pregnant woman with triplets, removing one of them.
Then, embryo transplants were performed on seven more women.
Next, give the Gu family a physical examination...
After rushing around like this, Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning finished all their work at Ning'an Hospital at 4:30 in the afternoon and started their return journey.
At around six o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Zhiming, who had already arrived in the city center, received a call from Dr. Fang Chen.
Yu Zhiming answered the call and asked, "Doctor Fang, have you made any discovery? Or..."
"Doctor Yu, we've found the cause."
Fang Chen's voice on the phone was somewhat excited as he explained, "We've learned that the patient's frequent fevers are of unknown cause, and several major hospitals abroad have failed to diagnose them."
"And Dr. Yu, you think there's something wrong with the patient's intestinal system, but you can't be sure."
"In this case, I knew that if the intestinal system was really causing the patient's fever, then the cause must be something unusual."
"So, when the patient came to the hospital, I didn't arrange for him to do the routine intestinal system examinations. Instead, I directly searched for strange intestinal diseases and ruled them out one by one."
"As my team members and I investigated one difficult intestinal disease after another, we finally made a discovery just now."
After a moment of silence, Dr. Fang Chen's voice, raised two degrees, sounded again.
"Doctor Yu, allergies."
"It is the allergy that causes the patient's frequent fever."
Yu Zhiming didn't expect that it was an allergy that caused Cao Xian's frequent fever.
But on second thought, it's normal.
There are many different allergens, and everyone's allergic symptoms can also be said to vary greatly.
"Doctor Fang, the patient's allergies are very strange?"
Fang Chen didn't keep anyone waiting and replied directly, "It's the enterotoxins produced by the E. coli in the patient's own intestinal system that cause the patient's allergy."
"When this enterotoxin accumulates to a certain concentration, it triggers intestinal allergies in patients, which in turn causes fever."
Fang Chen sighed, "This is a very rare allergy to a substance in the body. This is the first time I've seen a real case."
"If a team member hadn't found a case report of this kind around the world, I wouldn't have thought of doing an allergy test for enterotoxins."
The next moment, Dr. Fang Chen said with a lively tone, "Dr. Yu, if you encounter similar strange patients in the future, please remember to come to me first."
"Of course, of course..."
Yu Zhiming ended the call with Dr. Fang, and then Gu Qingning's voice rang in his ears.
"To be clear, this E. coli doesn't always live in our intestines. The patient has only had a fever for the past few months."
Yu Zhiming praised, "Not bad. You even know that E. coli is one of the symbiotic bacteria in our human intestines."
Gu Qingning raised her chin while driving and rolled her eyes at Yu Zhiming.
Yu Zhiming went on to explain, "Allergic reactions are arguably one of the most complex physiological mechanisms in our bodies. Currently, the medical community has yet to fully understand them."
"As for allergens, there are two to three thousand common ones, and nearly 20,000 are recorded in medical literature."
“And more are constantly being added.”
Yu Zhiming further explained: "The allergens that cause allergies in a person are not fixed."
"As the body's condition changes, the allergens will also change. Something you weren't allergic to before may cause an allergic reaction after a while."
"That's why for certain medications that require skin testing, patients have to suffer through this again and again, rather than just doing it once and for all."
As he spoke, Luweiju appeared in Yu Zhiming's sight...
