Chapter 739 Not sure, you can give up (seeking a monthly ticket)
The chief diagnostician from Braun Medical, Vanessa Lee Chester, seemed polite and showed great importance to Yu Zhiming.

But whether "seeing is believing" or this "fortunate to join", it all shows this person's doubts about Yu Zhiming, as well as the self-righteous arrogance of Westerners, superior to others.

Yu Zhiming will not be used to it.

Just when he was about to speak, he noticed that his left foot was lightly touched a few times.

Yu Zhiming glanced at Gu Qingran on the left, and knew that this guy was really attracted to the latest hemodialysis membrane that Chester was talking about.

He can understand too.

High-end precision medical equipment such as nuclear magnetic imagers, as well as core high-tech medical materials such as lung membranes required for artificial heart-lung ECMO, are basically controlled by foreign countries.

There is still a long way to go for domestic substitution.

Cooperative production is undoubtedly the best way to quickly obtain the technology of the other party, and then achieve follow-up and overtaking.

Therefore, it is necessary to make some sacrifices appropriately.

Thinking of this, Yu Zhiming softened his tone.

"Dr. Chester, as you probably already know, I am currently involved in the Very Early Cancer Project."

"Combined with other daily work, I am short on time, so I can only say sorry for your project invitation."

The next moment, Yu Zhiming said again: "However, I'd be happy to do a physical examination on the three people you brought, so that you can see my ability for real."

This response gave Gu Qingran the urge to help his forehead.

He has seen that Chester's purpose is to recruit Yu Zhiming into her project research team.

You rejected the invitation first, and then wanted the other party's benefits, how did your thinking become so childish?

Just as Gu Qingran wanted to talk back, Chester spoke first.

"Doctor Yu, it's because I didn't explain clearly. If you know the specific content of my research and development team for this project, you will definitely understand why I say that medical history has been created."

Chester took a sip of coffee before speaking again.

"In the past 11 years, my team and I have mainly devoted ourselves to the research on the reversal of diabetes."

"The earlier it is detected, the greater the chance of reversal."

Diabetes is an incurable disease that can only be cured by controlling the development of the disease, preventing and delaying the occurrence of complications, improving the quality of life of patients, and prolonging the survival time of patients.

Although diabetes is an incurable lifelong disease, it does not need to take medicine for life.

According to current research, diabetes is mostly related to acquired bad lifestyle.

Therefore, as long as it is in the early stage of diabetes and there are no serious complications of various organs, correcting the unhealthy lifestyle that leads to diabetes can reduce the burden on the islet β cells of diabetic patients and increase the sensitivity.

This may enable the limited insulin secretion to meet the physiological needs of patients under the premise of diet and exercise control, and finally achieve normal blood sugar without medication for a long time.

When this happens, it belongs to the reversal of diabetes, and some medical scholars call it the cure of early diabetes.

In this situation, in Yu Zhiming's view, it is an exaggeration to say that it is a cure.

However, long-term medication is replaced by strict diet control, lifestyle control, and exercise control.

Once this strict and self-disciplined ascetic life cannot be persisted, the symptoms of diabetes will follow one after another...

Chester went on to introduce: "In recent years, my team and I have achieved fruitful results in the early detection and treatment of diabetes."

She said proudly: "The diabetes screening program we developed has an accuracy rate of 80.00% for early detection of asymptomatic diabetic patients."

After a pause, Chester said solemnly again, "I can tell you something."

"As of yesterday, a total of seven patients with early asymptomatic diabetes have been cured after scientific and careful treatment by our team."

"Note that I'm talking about a cure, not a reversal, and the strict diet and lifestyle they didn't need also achieved self-regulation of blood sugar," she emphasized.

"We are confident that we can overcome the problem of curing early asymptomatic diabetes and bring good news to more patients."

Chester looked at Yu Zhiming and said, "Your country has the largest number of diabetic patients in the world, and the incidence rate continues to rise. Today, one in ten people suffers from diabetes."

"Doctor Yu, will you still refuse my invitation to join my research team?"

Yu Zhiming looked at Chester, who was full of confidence, and gave him a polite and shallow smile.

Chester's words did not move him much.

Today, many cancers can be cured in the early stage, and diabetes can be cured in the early asymptomatic stage. In Yu Zhiming's view, this is not a big medical breakthrough.

After all, the most important thing is early detection.

Any kind of disease, in the early stage, is the easiest stage to deal with.

Just like touching a tumor that has taken root and sprouted quietly, the initial development of diabetes is also extremely hidden, with no symptoms.

When the symptoms are noticed, it is basically at the mid-term stage that requires clinical treatment.

Yu Zhiming was not impressed by Chester's invitation. Another reason is that although diabetes is incurable and a lifelong disease, compared with cancer, it has a very huge characteristic.

That is, diabetes can be effectively controlled.

If diabetic patients live self-discipline, long-term blood sugar control reaches the target, and there are no diabetic complications, in this case, the patient's life expectancy will basically not be affected.

Yu Zhiming also understood that the purpose of the other party's invitation to join the research team was nothing more than to let him help optimize diabetes screening indicators, detect physical changes of diabetic patients, optimize treatment plans, and so on.

To put it bluntly, let him be a tool man.

Judging from Chester's attitude, Yu Zhiming should not be given an important research and development status, such as the person in charge, or a collaborator.

At most, he is regarded as a senior wage earner.

Yu Zhiming thought to himself, working for a foreigner like you, he might as well cooperate with a domestic diabetes research team.

As the country with the most diabetic patients, there are not too many medical experts who study diabetes.

If there is no suitable team, it is not impossible for Yu Zhiming to form one himself.

Of course, Yu Zhiming also understands the truth that he can't eat more than he can eat, and now he has limited time and energy, and he is unlikely to participate in too many research projects...

Yu Zhiming thought about it for a while, and when he was about to refuse again, Gu Qingran spoke first.

"Doctor Chester, the cooperation in this research and development project cannot be settled in a few words."

"Why don't you ask Dr. Yu to check up on your three companions first?"

Seeing that Chester nodded in agreement with the proposal, Gu Qingran asked in confirmation, "About the hemodialysis membrane?"

Chester laughed softly: "Mr. Gu, don't worry, what I said will definitely be fulfilled."

"Even if Dr. Yu finally rejected my invitation..."

After hearing this, Yu Zhiming stood up and said, "Let's not waste time, let's start the physical examination."

"Follow me to the examination room."

Chester, who got up together, interrupted: "Doctor Yu, as far as I know, you can also perform physical examinations in a messy environment."

"This office is quiet enough. Just do a physical inspection here. We'll just watch from the sidelines. Shouldn't it be okay?"

Yu Zhiming couldn't help but rolled his eyelids.

Is this because he is afraid of cheating?
"can!"

Yu Zhiming looked at the three men beside Chester and asked directly, "Which one of you will come first?"

Following his words, a brown-haired man in his 30s took a small step forward.

Yu Zhiming asked the person to lie down on the vacant couch, put on medical gloves, started from the person's head, patted and pressed while doing the examination.

After checking the man's chest, Yu Zhiming frowned, and then speeded up the inspection, and finished checking the man's chest and abdomen in less than a minute.

Afterwards, Yu Zhiming straightened his body, turned around, and looked at Chester with displeasure.

"There were three glass balls with a diameter of one centimeter in his body, one fell to the lower end of the esophagus by a silk thread, one was in the duodenum, and one was in the colon."

"Doctor Chester, your test is too simple, isn't it? You really look down on me."

Chester clapped his hands lightly and said, "Doctor Yu, this is not to look down on. This is enough to prove that your body detection ability is comparable to CT, and the detection efficiency is far superior to CT."

"It's already remarkable."

"Doctor Yu, let's continue!"

The second examinee was a male foreigner in his 40s with a hooked nose and deep eyes.

Yu Zhiming had a body checkup on him and found that the biggest problem with him was pancreatic cancer.

Fortunately, it's early days.

Chester clapped his hands louder.

"Doctor Yu, the rumors are indeed true, it's amazing!"

"He was diagnosed with early pancreatic cancer after we found some abnormalities in his pancreas during the diabetes screening these days. After our repeated examinations, he was diagnosed."

"I really didn't expect that, Dr. Yu, you could confirm his pancreatic cancer in just four to five minutes."

Qi Yue, Gu Qingran, and Zhou Mo who were on the side had strange expressions when they heard these words.

This is really poor information, more rare than strange.

For Yu Zhiming, this is a basic operation.

Chester said happily, "You are capable enough to join my research team."

Yu Zhiming smiled noncommittally, and then looked at the third person.

Chester said again: "Doctor Yu, when examining him, there is a small request that you need to wear an eye mask."

After a pause, she explained: "The reason for this request is that Dr. Yu needs you to feel the tattoo pattern on his skin with your hands."

When Qi Yue heard this request, he was stunned.

In the early stage of diabetes, when the body is in a state of high sugar, the interstitial fluid under the skin surface is in a hypertonic state. The hypertonic state dehydrates the skin surface cells, the skin loses moisture, and the symptoms of dry skin appear.

In the middle and late stages of diabetes, severe diabetic skin diseases will be caused.

There may even be skin necrosis and ulceration.

Chances are, Chester's team has a way of identifying cutaneous diabetes by probing the state of the skin.

Therefore, she tested Yu Zhiming's ability to detect subtle changes in the skin.

Chester's voice sounded again.

"Doctor Yu, your ability has convinced me that seeing is believing, and I am fully qualified to join my team."

"His skin tattoos were tattooed by our famous tattoo artist with the thinnest needles. Two years have passed since the last tattoo."

Chester said with a smile: "Doctor Yu, if you are not sure, you can give up this test."

Yu Zhiming stretched out his hand and said, "Blindfold..."

PS.
