Chinese medicine: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 125 High-scoring Articles
"Brother Qing, what does the girl you are on a blind date look like?" Huang Yiming asked.

"She looks okay. Why are you asking this?" Zhou Yanqing put away his phone temporarily after sending a message to Chen Yu, and asked Huang Yiming curiously.

Huang Yiming immediately understood and waved his hand to explain: "No, no, Brother Qing, you misunderstood me."

"Originally, someone from the next class wanted me to give you her contact information. I thought you were single, so I agreed and asked for your opinion first."

"But now it seems that it will not be used anymore," Huang Yiming explained.

It would be bad if Zhou Yanqing misunderstood that Huang Yiming wanted to be the scapegoat.

"No need, I don't really like having someone in the same industry as my significant other, so I won't consider people in the same industry." Zhou Yanqing's attitude was very clear.

Huang Yiming joked: "Even if I look good, it's not okay?"

"I'm not considering it for now. But it's not absolute." Zhou Yanqing didn't say anything too definite, as no one could predict what would happen in the future.

The next topic is about the upcoming exams and subsequent courses.

Of course, Huang Yiming also specifically asked Zhou Yanqing how he studied and how Zhou Yanqing's professional learning efficiency could be so fast...

Zhou Yanqing also has no shortcuts. The only shortcut he has is to win by quantity, doing the same operation millions or even hundreds of thousands of times.

The two drank four bottles of beer in total and then returned to the dormitory.

After Huang Yiming returned to the dormitory, he was also influenced by Zhou Yanqing's inward-looking spirit and sat directly in front of the computer.

Zhou Yanqing took a shower first and then lay down on the bed.

Combining work and rest does not mean you have to study just because you see others studying. People who do this generally won’t get very good grades.

People with good grades tend to have their own plans. Studying in a planned way is the most scientific and efficient.

Before going to take a shower, Zhou Yanqing sent the corresponding data analysis results to Duan Qilin.

Zhou Yanqing had just climbed onto the bed and found a place to lie on his side when Chen Yu's reply from twenty minutes ago arrived. It was a computer page that displayed the student parent medical insurance registration form in an Excel spreadsheet.

“???” Zhou Yanqing took one look and was filled with question marks and curiosity.

Isn’t Chen Yu an elementary school teacher? Why does she also have to make records of the medical insurance registration forms of students’ parents?
"Amazing, isn't it? But this is our daily routine. We not only have to register whether students want to pay for insurance, but also whether their parents' New Rural Cooperative Medical Insurance and other medical insurance are fully registered. If they are not registered properly, we have to call to notify them!~" Chen Yu also sent a cracked expression.

Zhou Yanqing really broadened his horizons.

Is this person supposed to be a teacher, or a subordinate of the Medical Insurance Bureau or the Village Committee?
"You are teachers. If you call parents, won't it cause resentment? You can't explain it clearly. I thought you were asked to urge them to pay the money." Zhou Yanqing asked.

This is completely different from Zhou Yanqing's understanding of primary school teachers.

Zhou Yanqing often hears people around him complaining that today's schools have too many tricks. But if such things are also the teachers' job, how can there not be too many tricks?
"Of course I will, right? But what can we do? It's a mission assigned by the higher-ups."

"I heard that it is a connection between the medical insurance and education departments. If they say something, we have to try our best to cooperate."

"It is also possible to register other information, just like checking household registration."

"After finishing this form, we have to make another form, which is the home-school communication form. Parents have to clock in every day. If they don't, I won't be able to complete the stage-by-stage teaching assessment tasks..." Chen Yu began to babble.

After a few more words, Chen Yu reacted: "Did I vomit too much acid in you?"

This kind of thing is actually emotional output.

Outputting too much negative energy would definitely cause Zhou Yanqing's displeasure. Zhou Yanqing was not Chen Yu's emotional trash can.

"Okay, I'm quite curious. What time do you have to work until? Do you have so many tasks almost every day?" Zhou Yanqing asked.

"That's not true."

"It was mainly because I started dealing with another problem. A third-grade student had a fight with a fourth-grade student. To be more precise, a student from our class was beaten. We went to the hospital for a checkup and it cost 173 yuan."

"One hundred and seventy-three is not within the deductible for the school insurance, so you have to pay for it yourself."

"During the communication process, the two families had a dispute. In the end, they pointed the finger at us, saying that the insurance we asked them to pay was a scam. He hoped that the other parents would take their children to go through all the examinations, such as CT and MRI."

"Get more than two hundred dollars."

"The other parent will definitely not agree. I heard that CT scans have a lot of radiation. One round of examinations will be fine."

"Moreover, even if it's more than 200 yuan, the 200 yuan must be paid. The insurance will only reimburse the excess... I really don't know how this person's brain circuit works."

"Now the parents of both parties are deadlocked on this issue. It's a cross-grade issue. After I communicated with the head teacher of the other class, one of them paid the other 173, and the other paid 35. Each of them paid their own..."

"The dressing change for skin abrasions costs thirty-five dollars." Chen Yu analyzed a lot of things to Zhou Yanqing.

“I really don’t know how to answer this question.”

Zhou Yanqing didn't take sides: "Then you go ahead and do your work. I still have some things to deal with here. One of my senior brothers sent me a message."

"OK!~ You go ahead and get busy too." Chen Yu replied and ended the conversation.

-

"The data you analyzed also showed positive results?" Duan Qilin replied with a little surprise.

Zhou Yanqing asked in confusion: "It is a positive result. Isn't this the direction you have already found, Brother Duan?"

Zhou Yanqing has written a meta-analysis. Generally, before writing a data analysis article such as a meta-analysis, one always has a preset direction in mind.

"This is an analysis of the database, which is equivalent to whether you are interested or not. It is a rough statistical result in the early stage. How can there be an accurate positive result?"

"Besides, Yanqing, you know that with such a large amount of data, it will take a lot of time to analyze it statistically."

“The longer it takes, the more data there is, and the more complete the original data is, the more accurate the results will be.”

"I thought it would be great if you could get a subtype positive result, but you got a direct positive result." Duan Qilin analyzed carefully.

This proves that Duan Qilin looked at Zhou Yanqing's statistical results very carefully and analyzed them himself.

"The subtype positive result is when the data is divided into subgroups and compared after there is no overall positive result. It is equivalent to a predictive result that is forcibly obtained after a more detailed and precise analysis."

"Editors are generally not particularly satisfied with such prediction results. Whether to accept it depends on the editor's mood."

"But a direct positive result will make the editor very interested. Coupled with such a large amount of data, it should attract many people to download and read it, and even cite it."

"That's great." Zhou Yanqing didn't try to show off at the right moment, but asked directly: "Brother Duan, why don't we have such a case registry for limb replantation in our country?"

The database Zhou Yanqing analyzed is a registry of various data on limb replantation in the United States. Its data is relatively open and transparent, and anyone who wants to check it can do so, but the amount of information is not very detailed and thorough.

You need to carefully count, organize and summarize the data to find a more appropriate set of data.

Duan Qilin said: "Although the development of surgery in our country is not slow, how many years has our clinical medicine been developed? We have not yet reached the stage of a case registration database."

"The possible reason is that our population base is too large, the number of surgeries is too high, and we don't have enough money and energy to support a registration platform."

"Of course, such a database will have a certain potential for data mining in China in the future. If it is mined, we can compare the differences between Chinese and Americans."

"It's just that I don't know how long it will take to complete such a registration manual with potential sociological significance. To complete it, it will definitely require a group of very influential bigwigs to take the lead."

“This is not something we can covet right now.”

At this point, Duan Qilin changed the subject and said, "Yanqing, let's think about it carefully. We may send this article out as an article."

"The results are good and the amount of data is large. I think many article journals will be interested in it."

There are several types of medical papers, including article, case, review, letter, comment, etc.

Among them, article, that is, original article, is the most valuable.

The original paper is also called the original paper, which is the original version of the work. It is the result of the author's investigation, research, experimental research, and clinical research based on a specific topic and a summary of clinical work experience. It is the author's first-hand data (i.e. direct data).

Its content is relatively broad, and may include experimental research, clinical observations, investigation reports, etc.; it may also be innovative insights in medical theory and new scientific research results; it may also apply new knowledge, new theories, new technologies, and new methods to practice to achieve scientific summaries.

Logically speaking, what Zhou Yanqing is doing now is called review, or summary.

The main content of review articles comes from published materials, that is, mainly indirect materials, which belong to the third literature. Combined with the author's personal research materials and experience, the scattered, unsystematic, repeated, and even contradictory materials from multiple channels are arranged according to personal views and systems, so that readers can understand the development level and progress of a certain subject area or a certain topic in a relatively short time.

However, things are not absolute. Some very high-quality reviews can also be accepted as article-type articles, as long as your workload is large enough, the data analysis is good enough, and the positive results are meaningful enough.

"That is to say, if an article-type journal marks it as an article, does it count as a monograph-type article?" Zhou Yanqing asked.

"That's right! Yanqing, you are so awesome." Duan Qilin replied.

Zhou Yanqing's mouth twitched slightly, and he made a joke: "Brother Duan, you discovered this data first, so even if it's awesome, it's you who's awesome, right?"

"But I don't know how to do data analysis like you do?"

"Hey, Yanqing, since you are so good at data analysis and statistics, why didn't you publish a few more articles before?"

"With your data analysis skills, shouldn't it take two or three months to write a dozen meta-analyses? And the rest is just filling in the articles?" Duan Qilin was very confused.

If Zhou Yanqing had such amazing data analysis in the past, would he not have written some fluff articles?
In the medical field, people who are good at statistical analysis can kill people at will.

"I only learned it in the last six months." Zhou Yanqing forced an explanation.

Duan Qilin: “…”

"Then you should study mathematics or statistics, and then choose to be an accountant or a data analyst. You can earn more than studying medicine."

"just kidding!"

"Yanqing, I think you can have a chat with your teacher, Professor Tan Zhongyu, then."

"What if?"

Duan Qilin thought about it and withdrew his proposal.

"This will definitely not be supported in the short term. Our country is not yet wealthy enough to do this."

"Let's take the first bite of this delicious crab..."

……

After Zhou Yanqing ended his call with Duan Qilin, he looked at the statistical analysis on his panel and saw that it had reached (Expert 10/15), and his smile was so tight that it was difficult to suppress it.

With a minimum score of 10, it is possible to reach the threshold of 15 points.

Zhou Yanqing felt even better when he read Duan Qilin's words again.

She put the phone beside her body, then shook her butt left and right, choosing the most comfortable lying position and preparing to sleep.

The 10 points for a sci article are not just an exam.

If you can get more than 5 points, it is considered an article of extremely high quality, and others will say that your scientific research level is good when you show it to others.

If you can publish more than ten articles, you are at an extremely excellent level.

Senior Brother Yu Yue, you have accumulated a lot of experience and published a 12-point article, so you have to treat me. This is shared by many people.

It would be so great for Zhou Yanqing if he could write a single article on his own.

At this moment, Zhou Yanqing finally understood why most people regard scientific research articles as a synonym for scientific research accumulation and depth of scientific research understanding.

For an article like this, if you don't have enough scientific research literacy, you won't even be able to reach the threshold.

You don’t have the ability to do so even if you want to.

But you don't have such ability, so even if you send it, it will definitely be exposed.

……

Time is like water.

In a blink of an eye, another week has passed.

Zhou Yanqing suddenly found that his funds seemed to be insufficient. He spent money too lavishly. In less than two months, he had spent all the 100,000 yuan given to him by his master Professor Tan Zhongyu.

After this calculation, Zhou Yanqing no longer even thought about attending the afternoon political class. He took the bus directly back to the other side of the river to see if he could ask his teacher to give him more funds.

If it really doesn't work, Zhou Yanqing can only wait for his municipal project funds to be allocated.

Sitting in the car, wearing headphones and looking out the window, Zhou Yanqing murmured in a low voice: "Doing scientific research is also a very expensive job..."
