Medical road ahead

"Director Qin?"

Qiao Tan hastily stretched out his hand to straighten his hair, then stood up and invited him in.

"Dr. Qiao is already an excellent nutritionist. After a few years of hard work, he will be qualified for the post of resident physician." Qin Xiao praised with a smile.

"Ha ha."

Suddenly being praised, Qiao Tan grinned, revealing his charm and charm, changing his calmness in front of Li Tao, and the dull hair on the top of his head suddenly stood upright under Qin Xiao's hot gaze.

Qin Xiao stared down at the eye-catching bunch of dull hair, smiled without saying a word.

Seeing Qin Xiaochu standing at the door and not speaking for a long time, Qiao Tan couldn't help asking: "Director Qin, are you here to look for me?"

"cough!"

Qin Xiao retracted his gaze and said, "It was your Director Liu who asked me to come here to discuss the matter of giving nutrition lectures in the community."

"Lecture? Has the community lifted the quarantine now?" Qiao Tan wondered.

"Director Yaoqin is here too!"

Before Qin Xiao could answer, Liu Yaxiu walked over suddenly, looked at Qin Xiao with a little surprise, and soon returned to normal, and informed Qiao Tan to go to the community with her and Qin Xiao to give a lecture in the afternoon.

"You and Director Qin are so familiar?"

After Qin Xiao left, Liu Yaxiu rarely looked at Qiao Tan with a gossip expression.

"Not very familiar either."

Qiao Tan scratched his cheeks, and the roots of his ears gradually turned red.

Seeing this, Liu Yaxiu smiled knowingly, and then explained the content of the lecture in the afternoon to her in detail.
"Hi everyone, I am sure that many old neighbors are no longer unfamiliar with me. I am Liu Yaxiu, the chief physician of clinical nutrition at the Affiliated Hospital of C University. I still have the same old saying: If you want to eat well, sleep soundly, be in good health, If you don’t get sick, come to the nutrition department to consult me, or other doctors and nurses.”

At three o'clock in the afternoon, under Ma Weihua's organization and publicity, Liu Yaxiu brought Qin Xiao and Qiao Tan to the elderly activity center in the community where the Affiliated Hospital of C University is located, and spread medical and health knowledge to the residents who came to listen to the lecture.

"However, today's keynote speaker is not me, but Comrade Qin Xiao, the newly appointed director of our Department of Endocrinology. He will tell you about the complications of various chronic diseases and related knowledge about endocrinology. Director Qin, please!"

After the opening remarks, Liu Yaxiu took the lead in applauding and invited Qin Xiao out.

"Hey! So young."

"It's still very handsome!"

"Like a star."

As soon as Qin Xiao stepped onto the podium, there was an uproar from the audience, and there were endless discussions.

"It's a pity that Director Qin won't become a star!"

Ma Weihua agreed with everyone, even though he was a man, he couldn't help but look at Qin Xiao more, and praised him.

"It's good for people's eyes, and it can also treat people's diseases. Isn't it the best of both worlds?" Liu Yaxiu said narrowly.

After finishing speaking, he quietly glanced at Qiao Tan who was beside him, and found that she was engrossed in looking at the stage, not paying attention to other people's conversations at all.

this girl.
Liu Yaxiu glanced at her, then turned her head to look at Qin Xiao who was already sitting and was busy adjusting the microphone.

Hmm.. a woman is a man, but it's a good match.

"Cough cough!"

Qin Xiao cleared his throat, nodded to the audience, and then introduced himself: "Hello everyone, I am Qin Xiao, the director of the Endocrinology Department of the Affiliated Hospital of C University, and also the deputy chief physician of our hospital."

"How old are you?"

"Married?"

As soon as his words fell, there was a loud question from the audience, accompanied by titters one after another.

Qin Xiao smiled slightly, "If you want to know my personal situation, you can come down and ask me. But, compared to this, don't you wonder if you are suffering from chronic diseases and the corresponding complications?"

"If you're sick, you can definitely find out."

"It's hard to say, the old Wang who just passed away in our unit building was suddenly diagnosed with cancer, and it's still in the advanced stage, and the doctors can't cure it!"

"Some diseases, if you don't go to the hospital for an examination, you won't be able to find them at all."

Qin Xiao's words immediately broke the hilarious atmosphere at the scene, causing everyone to talk about it.

"This friend is right. Some diseases can only be diagnosed after going to the hospital for examination. Otherwise, you won't notice until the disease is terminal."

Qin Xiao grabbed one of the talking points and entered the topic, "And this phenomenon most often occurs in patients with chronic diseases."

"So what exactly is a chronic disease? Do high blood pressure and diabetes count?" Someone asked.

"That's a good question."

Qin Xiaochong nodded his head and explained: "Chronic disease usually refers to a disease that changes the structure and function of the body and cannot be completely cured. It requires long-term treatment, nursing care, and special rehabilitation training. It has an insidious onset and a long incubation period. , and it is very prone to complications. The hypertension and diabetes mentioned by this friend are both chronic diseases, the former is a cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, and the latter is a metabolic abnormality."

"And what complications do they have?" asked another.

"Many people suffer from high blood pressure and don't feel much discomfort. At most, dizziness and headaches occur, so they don't pay attention to it. In fact, no feeling does not mean that there is no damage. In the early stage of high blood pressure, some undetectable physical symptoms will soon appear. Abnormalities, this is the complication of high blood pressure, such as spasm of small arteries throughout the body, and as the disease progresses, these small arteries will gradually harden, eventually leading to damage to the brain, kidneys, heart and other aspects. And because of the high The symptoms of blood pressure itself are not obvious, and its complications are terrible, so it is called the 'invisible killer'. As for diabetes"

Qin Xiao picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and continued: "As an endocrinologist, the patients I have the most contact with are diabetic patients. After they get diabetes, most of them are not tortured by diabetes. Instead, it hurts the body, even life, by its complications."

"Diabetes is a group of lifelong metabolic diseases characterized by chronic hyperglycemia caused by multiple etiologies. If the blood sugar increases for a long time, it will cause damage to large blood vessels and microvessels, and endanger the heart, brain, kidney, peripheral nerves, eyes, According to the statistics of the World Health Organization, there are more than 100 complications of diabetes, which is the disease with the most known complications. More than half of the deaths from diabetes are caused by cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and 10% are caused by nephropathy. , the number of patients with amputation due to diabetes is 10-20 times that of non-diabetics. A complication occurs, and once it occurs, drug treatment is difficult to cure, so for diabetes, we have always prevented and treated it early to avoid irreversible complications."

"Why do you get diabetes?" Some people questioned.

"Inheritance and environment." Qin Xiao replied.

He further explained: "Actually, the etiology of diabetes has not yet been elucidated, and the etiology of different diabetes is also different. Even the same type of diabetes has different etiologies. However, summing up previous cases, they can be divided into two categories—— Genetic factors and environmental factors. But these two causes do not occur alone, and most of the time they jointly cause the patient's diabetes."

"Does that mean that people with a family history of diabetes may be able to avoid this genetic disease if they pay attention to their diet and living habits?"

Qiao Tan listened very seriously, and forgot his identity. Like a student asking a question, he raised his hands and stepped out of the backstage, walking towards Qin Xiao.
