Chapter 1913 What kind of disease is that?
Huang Yingbo and Yu Zhengsi are senior researchers at the Institute.
The identities of the two are among the top in the field of virus research.
Even in the world there is some weight!
Especially Huang Yingbo. During the period of H1N1 avian flu, an article about influenza virus appeared in The Lancet. At that time, he cited many references and was considered a small name.
That year, he was sent abroad by the state to participate in the flu rescue in Indonesia and won international awards. He was an amazing figure.
But this time, Qin Yongyi asked them to come to Tongci Town, Dongyang Province to assist in the investigation of rotavirus, but he felt a little surprised.
Because diarrhea in children in autumn is not a major event, it occurs every year, and the incidence of this disease is inherently high, and it is not easy to cause accidents, so...what is there to worry about with this disease.
However, Huang Yingbo and Qin Yongyi have some friendship, since they have said it, let's come.
Just take a look at the customs of Amyang.
However, after the two investigated the virus, nothing was found!
Rotavirus is mutating, which is inevitable.
After all, viruses have a simpler structure than humans, which means that they will evolve or mutate faster.
However, in this investigation, they did not find too many changes.
After getting the results, the two did not stay in the same porcelain town, but returned to the county and took a rest to go home.
However, the next day, when the two were about to get up.
Jiao Jinwen's phone came in.
Huang Yingbo did not save the call for Jinwen.
But over there he said anxiously: "Professor Huang, I'm Jiao Jinwen, the director of the same Cizhen Hospital, have you not left yet?"
Huang Yingbo smiled slightly: "Oh! Dean Jiao, hello, this is not over, I have something on my side, so I won't bother you."
Jiao Jinwen said quickly: "Professor Huang, don't leave. The situation has changed. The virus test results in the patient's body have come out, and the rotavirus has changed."
Huang Yingbo was taken aback when he said this.
"Dean Jiao, what do you mean?"
They have been tested and there is no problem.
Jiao Jinwen, the director of a township hospital, said that the virus has mutated. This is obviously a fantasy.
Jiao Jinwen hurriedly said: "Professor Chen Cang, who was sent by Dongyang Provincial Health Commission, came for an examination overnight. They found that the real cause of death of the patient was not respiratory failure, but Reye's syndrome induced by rotavirus, which caused brain damage. Hernias form, this creates a central imbalance, causing a series of reactions."
"Professor Chen sent the virus to the research institute overnight and found that the rotavirus was a little different from the previous ones. Specifically...Oh, I don't understand, why don't you come over?"
Jiao Jinwen is also extremely anxious here.
Huang Yingbo heard Jiao Jinwen's words, his face suddenly changed, Reye's syndrome?
He is very familiar with this name.
Because influenza virus, parainfluenza virus, Coxsackie virus, herpes virus, Epstein-Barr virus, varicella virus, etc. have been isolated from patients with Reye syndrome!
But does rotavirus cause Reye's syndrome?
This is obviously an accident!
Huang Yingbo really did not expect that a small amount of rotavirus could induce the life-threatening Reye's syndrome. Such a result obviously exceeded his judgment and cognition!
Thinking of this, Huang Yingbo's expression changed obviously, and there was a lot of panic on his calm face!
"Okay, I'll go over immediately!"
Huang Yingbo hung up the phone and hurriedly said to his colleague Yu Zhengsi: "The situation has changed, hurry back to the scene!"
When Yu Zhengsi saw Huang Yingbo in such a hurry, he quickly asked, "What happened?"
Huang Yingbo gave Jiao Jinwen's details again!
"Lao Yu, have you ever heard of Reye's syndrome among the complications of rotavirus?"
Yu Zhengsi shook his head directly: "Definitely not!"
Huang Yingbo stared at Yu Zhengsi and took a deep breath: "Chen Cang said yes!"
Yu Zhengsi was speechless for a while!
Who is Chen Cang?
He is the most talented surgeon in the world today and has deep attainments in the field of genetic engineering!
Even, it is rumored in the circle that Professor Chen's understanding of medicine is unmatched by anyone. His ability in clinical medicine and scientific research surpasses anyone!
Some people may be born for medicine!
And Chen Cang is obviously such a person.
but……
Yu Zhengsi swallowed and couldn't help asking: "Will...Professor Chen made the diagnosis?"
Huang Yingbo gave a wry smile: "I hope!"
While they were talking, the two hurriedly stopped a taxi, without asking the price, they walked directly to the township health center in Tongci Town!
Even at this time, both of them had some lingering fears.
If they really leave now.
as a result of……
Unthinkable!
I hope Professor Chen Cang made a wrong diagnosis...
Obviously, they can only pin this hope on Chen Cang.
At this time, Deng Ming stayed up all night in Amyang City, Dongyang Province. After driving back to Amyang by himself, he personally handed the items to Tao Xun and Yang Zhucheng.
The two old comrades of the Tsinghua Institute of Genetic Engineering are now preparing for the first genetic research institute in China.
Deng Ming woke up at three o'clock in the middle of the night and sent a sample!
Deng Ming just hurriedly said something:
"Professor Tao! Check it out! Check the gene sequence of RNA, check the protein coding sequence of rotavirus coat protein Vp4 adsorption protein and leak-causing protein NSP4!"
Tao Xun was taken aback by Deng Ming's appearance: "What happened?"
Deng Ming didn't want to call Chen Cang.
However, this time the phone rang suddenly.
Deng Ming's face changed: "Professor Chen?"
Chen Cang's voice was low, and some gasps: "The situation has changed, hurry up and study the rotavirus situation!"
Tao Xun answered the phone and quickly asked, "Professor Chen, what happened?"
Chen Cang's tone was a bit solemn: "There has been a new infantile diarrhea patient in Tongci Town, and we are now going."
"Professor Tao, hurry up and test the samples you sent, and use the method I taught you to see if there is anything new!"
"ASAP!"
After Tao Xun heard this, his face suddenly changed: "Okay!"
"Is it... serious?"
Chen Cang shook his head: "I don't know."
"However, this time the rotavirus induced Reye's syndrome!"
Tao Xun and others were silent for a while!
Chen Cang was also silent for a moment.
at this time……
Tao Xun couldn't help asking: "What is Reye's syndrome..."
He is embarrassed, but there is no way...
After all, he is not specializing in viruses or clinics.
Chen Cang was ashamed!
And Deng Ming almost laughed.
Tao Xun is even more embarrassed...
The atmosphere was stagnant for a while.
Yang Zhucheng is also curious about the baby: "Yes, what is Reye's syndrome?"
