Chapter 321
In all fairness, Sun Li'en himself is selfish.He really didn't want to tell the young parents about this result, even if they would have to face this cruel fact sooner or later.Moreover, he didn't want to be the direct target of the grief and helplessness of those parents - even though they might not have any hostility towards Sun Li'en.

"This disease...is there no way to cure it?" Hu Jia asked after a moment of silence, "At least there should be a way to control the disease?"

Sun Lien shook his head, "There is no cure. This disease is dysplasia caused by genetic defects, and there is no cure - I remember it is recorded in the guideline. Currently, there are some drugs that use telomerase inhibitors or antisense oligonucleotides. Therapeutic options for activating methylation-silent alleles are still in clinical trials."

The guideline Sun Lien mentioned was the "Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Rare Diseases" issued by the National Health and Medical Commission earlier this year.It records 121 rare diseases, including diagnostic recommendations and treatment options for these diseases.Unfortunately, most of these rare diseases have no effective treatments.Most of the time, only "symptomatic treatment" can be carried out, and efforts are made to "control the development of the disease" and "improve the life expectancy and living standard of patients".

What is the point of such a guide?This is the first reaction of many laymen who see the content.Vague diagnostic criteria, non-existent treatment methods, and disease principles with "unknown specific causes" all seem to declare the ignorance and insignificance of human beings.

But Sun Lien doesn't think so.

The first step in solving a problem is acknowledging that it exists.Problems that cannot be solved by clinical medicine always fall on the cooperation and research of basic medicine and other disciplines.The basis for the existence of these cooperation and research is to "recognize the existence of problems".That is, it is necessary to make an accurate diagnosis of the patient first.Only when the existence of diseases is diagnosed, can other disciplines collect as much data and content as possible, so as to conduct more precise research on these diseases.

Although from an individual point of view, these patients and their families have undoubtedly suffered great misfortune, but for human beings to "understand" these diseases, and even to the progress of overcoming them, every bit of misfortune suffered by these families will be of great significance. Be a driving force for research progress.

That's what medicine is, a science of hope built on the sorrows of countless individuals.

The two of them didn't talk much on the road. On the one hand, it was because Hu Jia was really depressed because of the kid's energy. Driving requires concentration.

After 20 minutes, Sun Li'en finally drove to Hu Jia's home.Hu Jia's parents were already standing at the door pushing their luggage.

"Let me come." Sun Li'en got out of the car quickly, took the luggage from the hands of the two elders, and said to Hu Jia who got off, "Just open the door and let uncles and aunts sit in. I will carry the things."

In fact, Hu Jia's family of three had quite a lot of luggage.There are four large 28-inch suitcases alone.In addition to the huge backpack carried by Hu Jia himself, as well as the backpack carried by Hu's father and mother, even the Volvo station wagon, which is famous for its "special capacity", it took Sun Li'en a long time to put all these luggage in. effort.

"Okay." Sun Li'en finally finished carrying the luggage, got into the driver's seat and fastened his seat belt, "Let's go."

The vehicle started smoothly, and not far after driving out, Mother Hu first asked, "Xiao Sun, how is the child you sent over just now?"

While observing the rearview mirror, Sun Lien confirmed that there was no car behind him, then changed lanes to the fast lane, and replied, "They have been handed over to a professional pediatrician, and the situation should be stable."

"I heard from Jia'er that you, Dr. Xiao Sun, are very professional." Mother Hu leaned back, found a relatively comfortable position and squinted her eyes and asked, "What do you think of this child's illness?" ?”

Sun Li'en was silent for a moment and then said, "Although according to relevant requirements, I can't talk to you about the specific problems of other patients. But I can say that this child's problem is... very serious."

Mother Hu opened her eyes suddenly, "What do you mean by not being optimistic? She is very sick now?" Between the words, there was a worried look.

Sun Lien sighed, "Her fever is actually not very serious, even pneumonia is still under control - the emergency doctor has put her on a ventilator, at least when we left, her vital signs were stable."

Father Hu asked, "Then what do you mean that the child's problem is not optimistic?"

Sun Li'en didn't speak, but Hu Jia interjected, "He thinks that child has other problems."

The car slowly drove onto the expressway. Fortunately, according to the navigation's estimation, after Sun Lien and his party arrived at the airport, there would be at least three hours for Hu Jia and the others to go through the security check and board the plane.There should be still time.

Hu Jia took Sun Lien's place and answered questions about little Luna to his parents.After all, Sun Lien's diagnosis of "Angel Syndrome" has not been verified by genetic testing, and the prompt on the status bar cannot be directly used to explain the matter.Just because little Luna likes to laugh, coupled with her love of raising her arms and having epileptic seizures, the diagnosis of "angel syndrome" is indeed untenable.What's more, there is another question about the patient's right to privacy that restricts Sun Li'en and Hu Jia from answering Hu's father and Hu's mother's questions.

"Mom...we really can't talk about it." Hu Jia was so anxious when asked by his mother.She sighed, "There are laws and regulations, if we know what disease the child has, we must never tell irrelevant people, not to mention we are just guessing, little Luna may not have this problem..."

Father Hu smiled, "We just want to see if Xiao Sun is as amazing as you said." His smile sounded sincere, "You can find a boyfriend who is capable, we can rest assured, right? "

Hu Jia blushed a little at what her father said, she was a little embarrassed, but said very proudly, "Li En's diagnosis has never been wrong."

Sun Li'en was a little embarrassed by his girlfriend's compliments. He emphasized, "I have just started to diagnose independently for more than a month. I haven't diagnosed many patients."

Hu Jia glared at Sun Lien very gently, "How many patients do you see in a month? Is there always a hundred people? How many rare diseases and severe diseases? Have you missed a diagnosis?" Although it sounds like criticism from the content Sun Li'en, but he was actually praising his boyfriend.

The vehicle slowly drove to Ningyuan International Airport.The three of Hu Jia and his party got off the plane together with Sun Lien, and it took Sun Lien a lot of effort to move the huge pile of luggage out of the car.He parked the car in the parking lot of the airport, and after unloading a pile of luggage, Sun Lien made two more trips and brought two luggage carts—he originally planned to push one cart and move them all by himself. , but I didn't expect a cart to hold all the luggage.So he had to push another car, and put the lighter backpack and luggage on it—letting Hu Jia push it on.

"Okay, just send it here." Hu's father didn't let Sun Lien continue to push the cart, but waved to Sun Lien, and then reached out to shake his hand, "Jia'er has been studying in London for a year. There will be a chance for a vacation in May - if you are free then, Xiao Sun, you can go to London to meet her - of course, we can set off together then."
