Thirteen prisons

Chapter 28 Blood Type

Zhou Yuan really didn't expect the tall and burly old Hu to be afraid of needles, so he couldn't help but feel a little funny.But what he cared more about was Yan Yi's expression when he said these words, it didn't look like he was joking at all, and he began to feel a little worried in his heart.

Up to now, his mood has become extremely complicated, and he can no longer tell whether it is good or bad.

I thought I could get an answer after arriving here, but now I realize that although Yan Yi has said a lot and told a lot of stories, he has not given a definite answer to the most critical question of "can this disease be cured?" .Zhou Yuan didn't quite know whether it was because of his personality, he was unwilling to promise when he was not sure, or he was deliberately hiding something.But even if the situation of "harmonious coexistence" between the two sides is only temporary, it is far better than the situation imagined before coming here, so Zhou Yuan and the others tacitly chose to wait and see what happens.

In the end, Lu Ming still drew blood for Hu Dongdong and Zhou Yuan respectively, and then started to fiddle with the workbench, and explained it along the way, so that Zhou Yuan probably understood the significance of the experiment he was going to do now.

The cross-matching test is clinically an important basis for determining whether blood can be transfused between two people, and it is a necessary means to confirm that there is no antigenic reaction of blood type incompatibility between the recipient and the donor, and to ensure the safety of the recipient's blood transfusion .The general procedure is to mix the blood donor's red blood cells and serum with the blood recipient's blood serum and red blood cells respectively, and observe whether there is agglutination reaction.If there is, it means that the blood type does not match and blood transfusion cannot be performed.But Yan Yi gave that girl a blood transfusion, but did it directly without doing any preliminary experiments, which obviously did not conform to medical common sense.

First of all, the blood transfusion should be determined according to the patient's condition. For example, the girl committed suicide by cutting her wrist. Although it was discovered in time, the blood loss was not too much.However, this kind of blood loss is urgent and may not be suitable for transfusion of whole blood.In addition, because the human blood type system is very complicated, it is not the four ABO blood types that ordinary people think. There are actually as many as 2012 types when it is subdivided, and the medical community will release some newly discovered human blood types every few years. Blood type, two newly discovered blood types were released in early [-].Therefore, even if the blood types of two people are the same, for safety, cross-matching experiments must be done in the early stage.

Therefore, the explanation that Yan Yi said before that Xiaoqing died of some kind of rejection reaction is completely nonsense to Lu Ming, an expert doctor.Although Lu Ming has been shocked many times by the things that happened in front of him that violated common sense, after all, he has learned so many years of modern medical knowledge, this is a complete scientific system, he still has to verify it himself.

After listening to Lu Ming's explanation, Zhou Yuan suddenly realized.Professional doctors look at problems from a different angle than ordinary people. It seems that bringing Lu Ming here is the right one.

As Lu Ming explained, his hands didn't stop at all.Zhou Yuan watched from the side, and probably understood that he was separating the red blood cells in the blood to make a suspension, and then he could start to combine the blood samples collected from different people for cross-mixing.This kind of experiment seems quite complicated and takes a lot of time. The most important thing is that I have been driving for two days and bumping on the mountain road for so long.Zhou Yuan felt sleepy after standing for a while, and looked at his watch, it was almost morning.Only Lu Ming was not tired, he was busy with concentration, he was indeed a workaholic.

Seeing that Zhou Yuan and Hu Dongdong both looked tired, Yan Yi took the initiative to say that the room is ready and they can take a rest first.Zhou Yuan thought for a while, there was only an old man and a girl in this building, they were still sick, and he was not afraid of what he would do, so he nodded in agreement.

Yan Yi took them downstairs, and after a brief explanation in the living room, he said to Zhou Yuan: "Lin Jing's body is still very weak, and it may take a few days to recover. Your treatment should wait until she wakes up. It's good to come together."

Since Yan Yi took the initiative to mention the treatment, Zhou Yuan happened to have a lot of questions, so he asked: "Mr. Yan, since the cause of the disease has not been found, what specific treatment method will be used? When I was in Beiyang Hospital, you Enough torment."

Zhou Yuan asked very handsomely, Yan Yi's face was a little ugly, and he was about to explain, when suddenly Lu Ming's trembling voice came from upstairs: "What's going on?"

"It seems that Dr. Lu has a result." Yan Yi said to Zhou Yuan indifferently.

That voice was obviously Lu Ming, but Zhou Yuan really didn't know what was going on that shocked him who had always been calm enough to utter such a loud exclamation.And Yan Yi's expected expression made him feel even more uncomfortable, and immediately asked: "What result?"

"Go up and have a look!" Old Hu said, then turned and went upstairs.Zhou Yuan was a little worried that something unexpected happened to Lu Ming during the experiment, such as being contaminated with his own blood, so he immediately followed.Yan Yi didn't say much, and followed at the end.

Originally, he didn't sleep well for more than 30 hours, and Lu Ming was a little haggard, but now his face was even more ugly, with a look of panic and bewilderment.

Zhou Yuan saw that Lu Ming's hands were clean, and the machines next to the test bench looked normal. It seemed that there was no accident.But seeing Lu Ming's face like this, he was still a little puzzled.He walked over to support his shoulder and asked, "What's wrong with you?" Only then did he realize that Lu Ming's body was trembling slightly.

"Why is your complexion so bad?" Old Hu also saw that something was wrong with Lu Ming, so he said to Yan Yi who was following up, "Old man, you are also a doctor, give me a look."

Yan Yi didn't move, but shook his head: "He's fine, just take it easy."

"It's okay, he will look like this?" Zhou Yuan was even more surprised. Lu Ming is a doctor, and his psychological endurance is extremely strong. Normally, he doesn't even blink his eyelids.This appearance can only show that there is a problem beyond his understanding.

He subconsciously looked at the test bench, recalling Yan Yi's warnings just now, thinking that this is probably the problem.But with Zhou Yuan's eyes, there is nothing wrong with it.The test tubes and microscopes used in the experiment, as well as the blood samples, are still in their original positions.

Yan Yi asked: "Doctor Lu, have you found the problem?"

As soon as he said this, Lu Ming trembled as if he had been bitten by something, and regained his mobility in an instant.Lu Ming's reaction was unexpected. Instead of answering Yan Yi's question, he grabbed Zhou Yuan and asked, "What is your blood type?"

Zhou Yuan replied subconsciously: "Type A, didn't you test me?"

"Impossible!" Lu Ming grabbed his arm, "I want to draw some more blood."

Zhou Yuan was completely speechless, blood is not water, why does he feel like a faucet, pumping whenever he says.Moreover, he felt that Lu Ming's performance was obviously wrong, and there was a paranoid look in his eyes, Zhou Yuan was too familiar with this look, it was the kind of frantic stage when researchers reached a critical point in their research.But the problem is, the main task of his company here is to check what's wrong with him, not to conduct academic research.

Lao Hu also felt something was wrong, so he came over and put his arm around Lu Ming's shoulder, and patted him twice.After Lu Ming calmed down a bit, Zhou Yuan took a deep breath, trying to make his face look less nervous, and then asked solemnly: "Lu Ming, tell me what happened? Don't worry, I'm fine." live."

Lu Ming was caught by Lao Hu, coupled with Zhou Yuan's question, he finally recovered.

But he looked at Zhou Yuan with weird eyes, as if he was looking at a monster.The lips moved several times, as if it was very difficult to say the words.Every time his lips trembled, Zhou Yuan's heart tightened, not knowing what kind of bad news he was about to tell him.

Finally, he struggled to say a word.After listening, Zhou Yuan was immediately stunned.

He was really simply stunned, because he couldn't judge what this sentence meant for a while.

What Lu Ming said was: "Your blood type just changed."

"Impossible!" Although Zhou Yuan is not a doctor, he also knows a basic common sense, that is, a person's blood type, like DNA, is a fixed characteristic of a person, and it is impossible to change in a lifetime.

"Lu Ming, is your head broken?" Lao Hu felt incredible and patted Lu Ming's head.

"Don't make trouble! I'm sober." Lu Ming opened Hu Dongdong's hand.

"Doctor Lu, I think you should have seen that fact." Yan Yi interjected at this moment.

Lu Ming remained silent, staring at Yan Yi with sharp eyes that seemed to see through him.Zhou Yuan felt a chill, and Lu Ming's performance showed that what he just said was probably true.He grabbed Lu Ming and asked, "Please explain more clearly, why did my blood type change?"

Lu Ming sighed: "The cross-matching test is a necessary means to test whether the blood types of two people will agglutinate after mixing. Before doing this test, the blood type needs to be tested according to the procedure. The test results show that Zhou Yuan's blood type is A type , Hu Dongdong is type AB, and Lin Jing is type B. This can actually show that the blood types of the three of you are definitely not compatible. But because Mr. Yan specially reminded you first, I continued to do the cross-matching experiment , As a result, in the experiment, the blood samples of you and Hu Dongdong showed agglutination, but that of Lin Jing did not!"

"Is this impossible?" Zhou Yuan asked in surprise.It is well known that two people with different blood types cannot transfuse each other.

"It's really impossible. Your blood type is completely different from Lin Jing's. There was no agglutination reaction in the cross-matching test. At first I thought it was a problem with the blood samples. I was afraid that they might be contaminated, so I did it again. This time In order to ensure accuracy, I added my blood sample." Lu Ming wiped his face and continued, "My blood type is the same as Lin Jing's, and it is also type B, but after this test, it was found that your blood is similar to ours. The blood of two people can be fused! What's even more outrageous is that Lin Jing and my blood can't be fused at all!"

This time Zhou Yuan understood it, and his head grew bigger.What Lu Ming said is very clear, not only Zhou Yuan, Lin Jing's blood is also problematic!

"Zhou Yuan, your blood type, I checked more than once, it must be type A, but now this kind of problem occurs, I suspect that the previous test was wrong, so I did another blood type test on your blood sample, and found that , your blood type has turned into type O!" Lu Ming's face was extremely ugly, Zhou Yuan had known him for so long, and it was the first time he saw him lose control of his emotions, presumably as a doctor who has received systematic medical knowledge, His shock was overwhelming.

"Fuck, can the blood type be changed casually?" Zhou Yuan blurted out.

"This may not be true. I seem to have heard that the blood type of people who have undergone bone marrow transplantation will change." Hu Dongdong said suddenly, he did not understand these medical terms like Zhou Yuan, but he kept calm and proposed a possibility.

Zhou Yuan said dejectedly: "But I've never had a bone marrow transplant. That's what people with leukemia need."

"Mr. Yan, you asked me to do the cross-matching experiment. Can you explain this phenomenon?" Lu Ming's expression was still very bad, but he had calmed down. He turned to look at Yan Yi and asked.

Yan Yi nodded: "Under special circumstances, if the red blood cells are contaminated by bacteria, the red blood cell antigen can be changed. In this case, the patient's blood was contaminated by bacteria, and the blood type O became type B. However, if the disease that caused the antigen to develop the disease is cured, the blood type will still return to the original blood type. In addition, there are other reasons, sometimes the patient's plasma protein disorder or after transfusion of plasma substitutes, the red blood cells will spontaneously aggregate, check the blood type Sometimes the blood type will be wrongly determined. This is all possible..."

Lu Ming interrupted him: "I know those too. I was very careful when I did the experiment just now. Zhou Yuan's blood type was confirmed after several inspections, so the conditions you mentioned that can cause blood type changes are not true. .”

"But the facts tell you that it is indeed established. In fact, there is another fact that you haven't noticed. Lin Jing's blood type can actually change. Or this is a characteristic of this disease, but I don't know what caused the blood change. " Yan Yi said.

Lu Ming stammered and said, "Her... will also?" He was just guessing at first, but Yan Yi firmly confirmed this fact.

"Yes. Therefore, the blood of Mr. Zhou Yuan and Lin Jing can be transferred to each other without agglutination. Because their blood is produced under the same physical condition." Yan Yi spread his hands, "Now you know, What kind of symptoms are we dealing with?"

"Is this the real purpose of you asking me to do the cross-matching experiment?" Lu Ming asked with a heavy face.

Yan Yi didn't speak any more, but nodded.

Zhou Yuan stood there, listening to their conversation, his back began to ooze cold sweat, feeling wrapped in a huge fear, gradually their people and voices became blurred and faded away, leaving only his own heartbeat There is a thud in the ear.

"You have a bad complexion, are you alright?" Lao Hu realized what was wrong and gave Zhou Yuan a push.

Zhou Yuan felt dizzy and said weakly, "Mr. Yan, what part of my body is the problem with my illness?"

"I can't be sure now. The onset of every disease or virus is a process that destroys the normal function of the human body. When the blood is abnormal, it can only be a pathological reflection. What we have to do now is follow the blood This clue to find the focal point. For you now, this is not a bad thing, at least it is beginning to be traced."

Zhou Yuan finally understood why Yan Yi deliberately asked Lu Ming to do this blood type matching test first.If the story Yan Yi told before just made them dubious, then letting Lu Ming personally confirm this unreasonable test result will undoubtedly make his words more convincing.At least Zhou Yuan now has a more intuitive feeling of the strangeness of this disease, and even feels that Yan Yi's previous excessive behavior may really have some reason.

Zhou Yuan smiled wryly, he could only try his best to accept the fact that when he came to Daba Town, not only his problems were not solved, but things seemed to become more complicated.

But at least he is very clear about one thing, that is, no matter how powerful other people's comfort is, it is not as useful as his own strong will.Both Lu Ming and Yan Yi are professionals, so we leave it to them to solve medical problems, but we have to stand up first, otherwise, even if we have the best doctors and equipment, it will be useless.
