The rise of nanometers

Photothermal knife operating room.

One of the patients was brought to the operating table.

Five doctors and five nurses were ready. Through the comprehensive body scanning system, the three-dimensional layer of the human body formed was filled with dense red light spots.

These red light spots are the resonance reflection of gold nanorod particles.

Based on the easy-first-then-hard plan, the attending physician started cleaning the arms and legs first.

When the near-infrared light wave of a specific frequency is excited from the laser and irradiates the patient's arm.

You can see that in the comprehensive body scanning system, the red light spots on the arms quickly disappear.

This is because after the gold nanorods absorb the heat of near-infrared light, the temperature rises rapidly. Then the gold nanorods reach the critical point and instantly burn the mutated T cells.

The HIV hidden inside the mutated T cells was also destroyed by high heat. After all, the instantaneous high temperature of more than 300 degrees Celsius is enough to quickly destroy the structure of macromolecular organic matter.

This kind of precise and rough physical destruction did not give mutated T cells or HIV any chance. It killed them quickly and accurately at lightning speed.

An hour and a half later, from the scan of the patient's body, it can be seen that the gold nanorods in the body have disappeared and completely turned into gold atoms.

This also declared that the operation was successfully completed.

Then the second patient was sent to the photothermal knife operating room.

Outside the operating room, Dr. Li and Liu Xing were also discussing the next arrangements.

Although the animal experiments were very successful, after the HIV virus was eliminated from the chimpanzees, there was no return of HIV infection. Tests on other animals also showed no return of HIV infection.

After all, the physical killing method of the photothermal knife directly burns the molecular structure of organic matter, and the speed is very fast, which does not create resistance to the virus at all.

HIV is very sensitive to heat and is more tolerant to low temperatures than high temperatures. The activity of HIV in a dry environment will drop to 90-99% within a few hours.

In a liquid environment at room temperature (22-27°C), it can survive for more than 15 days; at 56°C for 30 minutes, HIV can lose its infectivity to human T cells in vitro, but it cannot completely inactivate the virus in the serum; serum After exposure to the virus at 60 degrees Celsius for 3 hours or 80 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes, no infectious virus can be detected.

Currently, the inactivation method recommended by WHO is 100 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes.

The photothermal knife instantly generates high temperatures, reaching more than 300 degrees Celsius. Viruses and cells will be instantly burned and deteriorated, which is commonly known as ripening.

Soon these deteriorated cells and virus debris will be swallowed up and absorbed by the surrounding normal cells and become nutrients for the human body.

More than six hours later, when the last patient was sent out of the operating room, the clinical test finally came to an end. The next step was to observe the patient's recovery and see if there were any signs of return to positive.

If there is no return of positivity, it proves that HIV has been eliminated from the patient's body.

Liu Xing is responsible for observing the patient's condition.

After gradually reducing the dosage of antiviral drugs, a comprehensive laboratory analysis was conducted on the cells in the patient's body two weeks after stopping the drug.

The final result obtained was that the HIV virus in the patient's body had been completely eliminated.

This is not only the result of Nanshan Shennong Hospital, but also the situation of the other five test hospitals.

When the Phase II clinical test report was made public by Shennong Group, it immediately triggered a heated discussion on the Internet, even more popular than several news in the semiconductor field.

Time blog.

Below is the official account of Shennong Group.

[Congratulations to Shennong Group for achieving another great achievement! ]——Chinese Academy of Sciences

[Of the 30 test patients, 26 were successfully cured, and 4 were delayed due to original complications and are currently undergoing treatment. This success rate is so high! ]——Repeater

[When will clinical phase III be done? I will definitely sign up this time. ]——Tauren

[The price of treatment is too high! ⊙﹏⊙ Starting from 1.5 million, it is estimated that only the rich can afford the treatment. ]——Gray avatar

[I hope medical insurance can subsidize it, otherwise I really can’t afford the treatment. ]——Blood Plague Survivor

[A black-hearted businessman eats steamed buns made of human blood. ]--Ultraman

[ @Salty-egg Superman, get out! People spend billions on research and development of technology, do you want to have sex in vain? Which medical company will be willing to spend money on research and development in the future? ]——Snowflakes fluttering, tides and sea spirits

[The initial price will definitely be high. I heard that the R\u0026D cost invested by Shennong Group seems to be around 6.8 billion. It is estimated that 5,000 paying users will be needed to initially recover the cost. ]——Kaitou Kidd

[It is said above that the price is too high, but you can rest assured, because the first audience will definitely be wealthy people and wealthy foreign patients. ]——Emperor Yang Feng

[The helpless reality. ]——Cheng Pan

[Just be happy! If this technology is developed by a foreign company, the price may be several times higher. ]——Professional kayaking

Immediately afterwards, the medical insurance sector also came out to congratulate Shennong Group on its new technology and its initial results, and said that subsidies were being discussed.

However, many people understand that medical insurance cannot subsidize too much, at least during the initial promotion period.

After all, the patients who can be treated in the early stage must be wealthy people with high net worth. This group of patients can afford it with or without subsidies.

It would be better not to subsidize, and let Shennong Group rob the rich and give to the poor, first recover the R\u0026D costs through high prices, and then gradually reduce the prices to normal levels.

When prices return to normal levels, it will not be too late to subsidize them.

the other side.

Soon this news was forwarded by domestic netizens to the international version of Time Blog, and then quickly spread to international super-trust, YouTube, Twitter and Fei Die.

There are currently about 32 million AIDS patients in the world, and the real number may be even greater.

After all, many patients do not have any obvious clinical symptoms in the early stage, so this group of people are not included in the statistics.

For example, in China, although the statistics from the Ministry of Health are around 1.5 million, the actual number is definitely higher.

Feipeng Group, which provides shared medical care, screened 17,000 AIDS patients through fixed medical points and mobile medical fleets in 2012 alone.

In 2012, Feipeng Group's shared medical project tested a total of 3.64 million people. According to big data evaluation data, the infection rate was close to 1 in 200 people.

To avoid winning the bid, you have to keep yourself clean and take care of your lower body. It is best to have a premarital check-up before getting married to avoid being cheated.

With such a huge number of patients, Shennong Group's new technology suddenly attracted much attention.

Although there are now 72-hour blocking drugs and cocktail therapy that can control the progression of the disease, no one wants to live a lifetime worse than death and become a marginalized person in society.

However, on Twitter and other foreign social software, netizens' attitudes towards this matter are polarized.

The main reason is that the reputation of the Suiren Department abroad is not very good. It likes to engage in price discrimination and differential treatment. This is known to everyone on the Internet.

Especially netizens in established and developed areas hate the Suiren series with a passion, and have launched many campaigns to boycott Suiren series products on the Internet.

It's just that the Suiren Department still has its own way of doing this.

When they saw that AIDS might be conquered, these foreign netizens were naturally very happy, but when they saw the R\u0026D companies, they were not happy anymore.

Of course, foreign patients who are really in need can only admit it with their noses pinched. They cannot risk their lives.

At one time, there were more than 7,000 consultations on AIDS treatment among the medical tourism consultations in the South Pacific Region.
