"We can try to use drugs to block the mTOR signaling pathway in patients with Castleman disease to see if we can curb the progression of the disease!"

"That sounds good." Professor Ram Demps groaned for a moment and said, "But where can we find this drug?"

Is it possible to develop a new drug for this idea?

It’s not impossible, but it’s definitely going to be very difficult.

"No need! In fact, there is a ready-made drug!" Gao Feng said, "Sirolimus."

"Sirolimus?" Everyone looked at each other. Isn't this a drug for fighting rejection after kidney transplantation?
"it's him!"

The group left the meeting place in a hurry. They were going to the laboratory of Professor Rutherford Monroe, a native Swedish professor.

"Sirolimus can be purchased at the nearby pharmacy." Professor Rutherford Monroe had a sense of unreality as he had two Castleman disease patients.

One patient was clearly in the advanced stage of the disease, with a big belly, thin limbs, swollen feet, and a very poor mental state.

The patient had just finished dialysis, and his eyes were gray. It was obvious that the twists and turns of fate had completely subdued him.

"Davis, are you okay?"

"What do you think? I won't die today."

When Davis learned that the drug in front of him might be effective for his condition, a faint light flashed in his eyes.

"What are you waiting for?! Feed me!"

"Even a 30cm thick steel hatch couldn't stop him—a medical professor who knows Kung Fu!" New York Times

"Chinese medical professor saves lives while flying a plane!" The Washington Post
"Three gangsters, one dead, one seriously injured, and one captured, Bruce Lee's successor - Professor Gao Feng of China." Asahi Shimbun

"At an altitude of 20 meters, facing more than beautiful and charming stewardesses, this Chinese man actually did something astonishing!" UC Editorial Department.

Gao Feng announced that the UC editorial department had won a complete victory.

A few days passed in a flash, and the Swedish people, or most people in the world, knew about him.

Gao Feng is now labeled as: outstanding medical professor, Lasker Award winner, Bruce Lee's successor, and a handsome guy.

"Life is as lonely as snow." He sighed. In addition to his family and teachers, many friends also called to inquire about this matter, and they were all shocked.

"You encountered a hijacking?" Li Xinyao
"Yes."

"Then you subdued the criminals and took back control of the plane?" Li Xinyao
"Yes."

"And you, who had never flown a plane before, landed it safely???" Li Xinyao
"That's right!" Gao Feng replied, "What do you mean? Why do I feel like you're not very happy?"

"Is my man so strong?" Li Xinyao on the other end of the phone fell into a brief contemplation, "I understand you less and less," she finally said.

"Mr. Jerry Gallagher from AstraZeneca wants to visit you." Li Youliang walked over and said.

"Please ask him to come up." Gao Feng said, "Forget it, I will go down myself."

AstraZeneca is a leading global pharmaceutical company, formed in 1999 by the merger of Sweden's Astra and the UK's Zeneca. The global headquarters is located in London, UK, with operations spanning more than 100 companies around the world.

It has three strategic R&D centers in Cambridge, UK, Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA, and Mundor, Sweden.

Mr. Gallagher is the person in charge on the Swedish side. Since the other party came to visit him in person, he needs to show enough respect.

"Hello, Mr. Gallagher."

"Professor Gao, nice to meet you." Jerry Gallagher shook hands with Gao Feng enthusiastically.

The two had talked on the phone before and each had something to ask of the other, so this meeting didn't feel abrupt.

"Are you free tomorrow?" Gallagher asked. "I have an appointment with Professor Norman from the Karolinska Institute, and he is very interested in meeting you."

Professor Norman is a senior professor of internal medicine at the Karolinska Medical School. He has participated in the selection of the Nobel Prize many times before and has close ties with AstraZeneca.

When Gallagher conveyed Gao Feng's request for a visit to the other party, the latter readily agreed.

Gao Feng naturally has time tomorrow, and the purpose of coming to Sweden is largely for this.

The next morning, he and Gallagher walked into the Karolinska Institute.
This university, founded in 1810, is located in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. It is the most famous medical school in Sweden and is located at the junction of Lake Mälaren and the Baltic Sea.

It is one of the largest and best single medical schools in the world and one of the top ten medical schools in the world. It undertakes 43% of the country's medical academic research and has an affiliated Karolinska University Hospital.

At the same time, the college has a world-renowned Nobel Committee, which is responsible for reviewing and awarding the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine every year.

"Go to the hospital?"

"Yes." A young man who looked like an assistant said to Galahad Jerry respectfully, "There is a special patient. Several professors went there early in the morning and have not returned yet."

"Let's wait for him here." Galah Jerry suggested, and Gao Feng had no objection.

But an hour passed and Professor Norman still hadn't returned.

"It may take some time." The young man came over and said, "The professor feels very sorry and said that if possible, you can go to the hospital to see him."

The status of Karolinska University Hospital in Sweden is equivalent to that of Union Hospital in China. The hospital has been listed in Newsweek magazine's "World's Best Hospitals" for five consecutive years.

When they arrived at their destination, they were told that Professor Norman was participating in a case discussion. This aroused Gao Feng's interest. What is a multidisciplinary consultation like abroad?

"Can I join?" he asked.

"Of course, in fact, the discussion has just begun." Doctor Simon from the Department of Gastroenterology looked at the Oriental man in front of him curiously, "You can go in through the back door."

After Gao Feng entered, he found a seat at random. There were already quite a few people sitting in the spacious teaching room, and the attending physician was introducing a case.

The patient, named Denise, is only 15 years old. Half a year ago, she always felt a dull pain in her lower abdomen, and occasionally had obvious colic.

At first I thought it was dysmenorrhea, and taking painkillers did relieve the symptoms, so no one in my family took it too seriously.

But as time went by, Denise discovered that her abdominal pain was not completely synchronized with her menstrual cycle. Accompanied by her mother, Denise made her first visit to a gynecologist.

After the physical examination, the gynecologist found that the patient had slight tenderness in the lower abdomen but no rebound pain. The doctor recommended that in addition to the routine examination, an ultrasound be performed to check the situation.

Gynecological ultrasound reported no obvious abnormalities, but abdominal ultrasound showed multiple masses with clear boundaries and uniform echoes around the mesentery in the abdominal cavity.

"Your stomach pain is not related to gynecology. I suggest you go to the gastroenterology department to see if it is a problem with your digestive system." The gynecologist said. So Denise was transferred to the gastroenterology department. After learning about her condition and her gynecological consultation experience, the gastroenterologist asked about some gastrointestinal symptoms. Denise said that she occasionally had symptoms of nausea and diarrhea.

"The ultrasound shows multiple large space-occupying lesions with clear boundaries. I suggest doing an abdominal MRI to further clarify the lesions," suggested the gastroenterologist.

Since we are in the hospital, we naturally have to listen to the doctor. Most foreigners know this, so Denise completed the MRI examination three days later.

This was not the end. Her abdominal pain continued to recur for a period of time afterwards, and the real cause has not been found until now.

The doctor in charge is a blonde beauty named Spendebella. She looks to be around 30 years old, with incredibly long legs. The key is that she also wears a pair of glasses, which gives her a queen-like feel.

Gao Feng stared at the other person carefully for a few seconds and decided to go back and ask Li Xinyao to dress like this too.

"It's so beautiful. I'll let my girlfriend wear it like this later." Li Youliang whispered at the side. It turns out that great minds think alike.

"The patient's pain has not been relieved at all, and it became significantly worse last night." Spendebella frowned slightly.

At this moment, Gao Feng felt a little heartbroken.

A gray-haired professor expressed his opinion and suggested removing part of the mass for examination.

"Professor Barrow, the patient had previously undergone a needle biopsy, but pathology found no problems," said Spendebella, the attending physician.

"So we have to cut off a part of it completely." Professor Barrow said as a matter of course, "I think the patient's abdominal pain is closely related to these things."

"What if the symptoms don't improve after the removal?"

"Then keep cutting." As a senior expert in general surgery, Professor Barrow's method of solving problems is simple and straightforward.

"Let's go see the patient first." Professor Norman suggested. He was younger than Gao Feng had imagined, and the way he spoke made him seem very steady.

Gao Feng followed the crowd to the ward, where Denise was lying on the bed sleeping. The sudden worsening of abdominal pain last night had caused her a lot of pain, and the symptoms gradually eased around 6 o'clock in the morning.

Denise's mother was sitting by the bed, looking worried. When she saw the doctors coming in, she quickly stood up.

"Doctor Bella, do you need me to wake her up?"

Denise was a little dazed when she was woken up, but when she saw so many people, her sleepiness disappeared immediately.

"My dear, these are the professors who are treating you," her mother comforted her. "You need to tell them carefully what they ask."

The attending physician, Spendebella, conducted a thorough physical examination in front of everyone, and Gao Feng soon discovered something abnormal.

The patient had several brown patches on his arms, back and legs that looked like birthmarks or something.

When Dr. Bella pressed on her abdomen, Denise's expression became a little painful, and she only breathed a sigh of relief when the other party quickly let go.

"There is tenderness, but no rebound pain."

"Does anyone need to come up and take a look in person?" Spendebella asked routinely.

Gao Feng came up immediately after hearing this.

Seeing this strange foreign face, Spendebella showed a puzzled expression, but she did not say anything in front of the patient's family.

Professor Norman in the front row immediately noticed Gao Feng, and the two nodded to each other as a greeting.

Gao Fengshang carefully looked at the brown spots on Denise's body from front to back, and performed a palpation of her abdomen. Then everyone returned to the demonstration room together.

"Cut it off." Professor Barrow seemed to really want to use the knife today. He suggested again, "I assure you that with my ability, I can cut it very cleanly!"

"It's unwise to perform surgery without finding out the cause!" Someone objected, "I think we can investigate further in the direction of connective tissue disease."

"We've been investigating for so long and still haven't found any results." Professor Barrow said with disdain. These internists think too much and can argue over anything for a long time in their hands. They are like sissies.

"I think it might be a simple intestinal spasm?" Another professor expressed his opinion, "The patient is quite sensitive to antispasmodics."

His advice was to continue taking the medication and observing the situation, because Denise's general condition was still very good and her diet had always been normal.

"Or do another needle biopsy."

"Endometriosis cannot be completely ruled out!" said another professor, because Denise's menstruation is very irregular and the duration of her period varies.

Gao Feng was thinking hard at the moment, he always felt that the brown spots on the patient's body were a little bit wrong. But according to Denise's mother, these spots existed when Denise was a few months old. They went to see a dermatologist for this, and the doctor told them that it was a birthmark and they didn't need to pay special attention to it.

After so many years, these brown spots seemed to have grown a little bit bigger, but since there were not many of them and the location where they grew did not cause any trouble to Denise, no one paid any attention to it.

"Could it be a rare disease?" Gao Feng thought to himself. He had seen so many difficult and complicated diseases that he now thought everything he saw was a rare disease.

'If it is a rare disease, what diseases fit the bill? '

After thinking for a while, he thought of a disease: neurofibromatosis type I. However, Dennis's symptoms did not seem to fit the description. Most patients with neurofibromatosis type I had tumors visible to the naked eye, but hers were just some brown patches, and these patches did not protrude from the surface of the skin.

The discussion ended in vain, and before leaving, Professor Barrow again suggested surgery.

"What are you waiting for! Cut it off!"

"Hello, Professor Norman." Gao Feng walked up and shook hands with the other party.

"You are younger than I thought." Professor Norman from the Karolinska Medical School said with a smile. Gao Feng didn't know how many people had heard him say this.

"Everyone, this is Professor Gao Feng from China, the winner of the Lasker Basic Medical Award."

"A few days ago, Professor Gao played a perfect cameo as a civil aviation pilot. I think everyone must be familiar with him."

"Oh, why do I think he looks familiar?" someone shouted. The media has been reporting this matter extensively in the past few days. Even the staff of Karolinska University Hospital have learned about this medical scholar from China through various channels.

The beautiful doctor Spendebella stared at Gao Feng. This Chinese man was very tall and handsome, which was why he was so popular recently.

Is appearance important to men?

The answer is obviously yes.

If Gao Feng were an ugly bastard, then the media and public attention would be reduced by at least half.

A handsome man can certainly make people feel good about him, but if he is also very capable, that is a sure win.
