Chapter 1634 1637: Can Progeria in Children Be Cured?
"Hahaha! Are you trying to make me laugh to death? Those things are all fake! Because those so-called theories can't be tested by modern medical methods, nor can they be proven by experiments, so they're definitely fake!" Bazil burst into laughter.
When the netizens heard Xu Hao unexpectedly bring up works like the "Inner Canon of Huangdi", they were immediately extremely disappointed.
They all knew those things were fake, couldn't be taken seriously. After all, anyone with a bit of brains would understand that the ancient fantasy-talk of Huaya doesn't have any truth to it.
If those things existed, would the current world still be like this?
Of course not!
Given that the current world is like this, with science and technology prevailing, it shows that those old sayings are fake, just fabricated by ancient people to satisfy their longing for other things.
Seeing Bazil and the others not believing the words he said, Xu Hao chuckled lightly, "Since you don't believe it, let me show you what real medical skills are! Come on, bring up one of your patients!"
Bazil immediately waved his hand and his subordinate carried the first patient onto the bed.
It was a child with muscle atrophy and aged skin!
When the netizens saw the child, they all gasped.
Bazil explained from the side, "He suffers from a disease called progeria, a congenital disorder. The fetus undergoes changes or damage while in the mother's womb. As a result, post-birth growth is extremely slow, leading to unusual facial features.
For example, a disproportionately small face, wrinkled skin, bulging eyes, or a small jaw, and by the age of two, symptoms like hair, eyebrow, and eyelash loss appear. More than ninety percent of progeria patients die from heart failure or stroke. The average lifespan of such patients is just thirteen years!"
Bazil had already made the patient's information public, so everyone knew what illness the patient had.
After hearing his explanation, all netizens were even more astonished.
That such a bizarre disease exists in this world!
He's just a child, yet from birth has suffered such an ordeal, and his future lifespan is limited to only thirteen years!
Everyone could clearly see despair in the little boy's eyes.
He's only about seven or eight years old, and he's already lost his desire for life!
Although Xu Hao was aware of this patient earlier, his heart was slightly touched upon seeing the little boy.
He said, "Even if I'm not having a medical exchange with you today, I will do everything I can to save him!"
Bazil immediately said, "Doctor Xu, if you can cure him, I will be halfway convinced!"
Xu Hao glanced at him indifferently, saying, "I don't need your conviction, I just want to save people now."
With a gesture of his hand, Qin Yao promptly handed over a box made of purple sandalwood.
Xu Hao opened the box and everyone saw twelve silver needles of varying thickness and length inside.
Xu Hao picked one needle of appropriate thickness, placed the box on the podium, and then bowed his head and said to the little boy, "Relax, I will heal you."
The little boy seemed to understand Xu Hao's words, but also seemed not to, as his head only slightly nodded.
However, Xu Hao didn't care about these details.
Netizens heard Xu Hao's words, but many did not believe him.
Doctor Big V "Juhua Bao man Shan" sneered, "Humph! Doctor Xu should be careful not to bite his tongue while bragging. This is something that many American medical experts couldn't solve, and he's just using needles to sort it out? Don't be ridiculous! I bet Doctor Xu can't possibly save that little boy!"
Hume on the scene also mocked, "Humph! Just boasting a lot, I absolutely don't believe you can cure progeria, a disease that's puzzled countless experts and scholars in the American Medical Association. How could a mere Huaya Person solve it?"
Xu Hao glanced at Hume indifferently, saying coldly, "If I cure him, you kneel down and apologize, saying traditional medicine is the best. If I don't, I'll kneel and apologize, saying Western Medicine is the best, how about it?"
Xu Hao's words instantly stunned Hume.
Those words were really ruthless!
Xu Hao actually put such a merciless curse on the table!
Hume was at a loss.
Xu Hao scoffed, "If you are incompetent, don't speak so much, or you'll be easily stunned with a couple of words like this, how embarrassing!"
Deep down, Hume was absolutely proud. How could he allow Xu Hao to humiliate him like this?
