Chapter 1631: Chapter 1192: Even Show-Offs Can Get Stuck
Zhang Lin spoke with such clarity that all the doctors present were inspired. Indeed, working at the Institute would surely lead to so accomplishnts.
Even soone like Zhang Lin beca a specialist; they all thought they could do even better. That was everyone’s consensus.
Previously, Zhang Lin and Little Five’s reputation at the Hospital wasn’t great. As for Little Five, everyone believed he only got into the Institute because he was Yang Ping’s protégé from the City People’s Hospital. There were countless doctors more skilled than him at Sanbo Hospital.
And Zhang Lin was rely doing nial tasks for Yang Ping initially, thus entering the Institute by association.
These two were seen as having no skills and purely relying on connections. That was their image in everyone’s mind back then.
Yet no one anticipated the pioneering days of the Institute, when there was little interest among people to join.
Now, Zhang Lin and Little Five are different; from “Hook Surgery” to solving a challenging problem in genetics, they are genuine experts. Even their manner of speaking has changed—they have the deanor of specialists.
“While in pediatrics, we conducted genetic tests. The genetic sequencing turned up negative; we didn’t find any pathogenic genes,” Director Bai personally responded.
Zhang Lin asked, “If no pathogenic genes are found, then we’re facing a considerable issue—in the absence of identifying the pathogenic gene loci, targeted dication is impossible, leaving us only to symptomatic treatnt.”
Targeted treatnt refers to addressing specific symptoms, whereas dealing with the root is curative.
“Currently, we are maintaining symptomatic treatnt using non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and phosphates, while being cautious about using glucocorticoids and tumor necrosis factor-alpha antagonists, preferring to wait for further discussion,” Director Bai communicated prudently.
The genetic tests being negative complicates treatnt due to the inability to pinpoint the source for curative intervention.
“The absence of identified pathogenic genes does not imply their non-existence,” Zhang Lin said with earnest seriousness, like a seasoned expert reflecting carefully before responding.
The entire room of doctors erupted in surprise; indeed, opinions from the Institute carried a different weight.
“It’s entirely possible she carries pathogenic genes that are currently unknown, not present within the human disease gene information database. This dynamic database updates continually, not static, and genetic testing only compares a patient’s genes to database info, seeking pathogenic traits via comparison.”
This statent caused further astonishnt, demonstrating Zhang Lin’s perceptive insights far surpassing his peers.
Yang Ping smiled subtly; despite their common qualities, Zhang Lin and Little Five’s efforts had not gone unnoticed. Even though they had shortcomings—Little Five’s glibness and Zhang Lin’s tendency to boast—they shared a steadfast quality, focusing on achievable tasks and those others neglect, staying grounded and diligent, unfazed by scorn or ridicule, courageously pursuing their work.
Even before Professor Yang intervened, Zhang Lin’s case discussion regarding Zhezhe had reached new depths.
“I suggest re-analyzing the genetic sequencing report—not simply running through existing diagnostic thods—by reassessing the exo sequencing report, ticulously screening each mutated loci,” Zhang Lin held the microphone as he spoke.
“If concerned about the ti-consuming manual screening, we can utilize the AI model from Nandu dical University, which delivers results in seconds.”
A voice added in the eting Room, leading everyone to turn towards the speaker—Lu Xiaowu, one of the Institute’s renowned duo, also speaking with composed authority, fitting for soone trained at the Institute.
Yang Ping nodded slightly; they were correct. Having seen Tong Yongqian’s case from beginning to end, Zhang Lin and Little Five had acquired fundantal research knowledge and thodology, capable of understanding the core logic of diagnosis and treatnt.
Director Bai and Director Tan both appeared surprised, particularly Director Bai who knew Zhang Lin well, previously a young doctor in Orthopedics, now admirably transford since joining the Institute.
“I just reviewed the genetic sequencing report, which lacks the complete exo sequencing details. If we truly wish to elucidate the etiology and achieve target-oriented treatnt, uncovering the cause is essential—there surely exists a pathogenic gene, but we have yet to locate it, our thods flawed,” Little Five stood as he spoke.
If Zhang Lin and Little Five perform surgery, having just one on stage might not convince others of their expertise, but with both together, their skill level unquestionably exceeds that of any teaching tertiary hospital’s lead directors.
Zhang Lin’s suggestions shed light on the matter, undermining Director Bai’s intent for extensive case discussion now pinpointed by Zhang Lin, indicating little necessity for further debate.
Director Tan turned towards Yang Ping, who nodded slightly, confirming, “They are correct; this patient undoubtedly has pathogenic genes, just not uncovered through current standard thods. We can certainly identify these through comprehensive comparative analysis—the gene must exist, likely a novel mutation not yet in the gene database. It’s important to realize all gene data entries are manually recorded into the database, which always has inherent delays.”
