Academician Qi was in high spirits and came slowly on crutches. He had a rosy complexion and a loud voice, shouting from a distance.

"What are you doing standing around at the door? Why don't you go and tell us the good news?"

Several people at the door looked at each other and took a while to react.

The family members immediately rushed to greet him and asked eagerly: "Hello, Mr. Qi, what's the good news you mentioned?"

The doctor waited at the door with a smile, and others rushed in to report to Mr. Xie.

"Mr. Xie, Academician Qi is here to see you."

Academician Qi walked slowly and answered the family members' questions.

"Didn't I tell you last time that a pharmaceutical genius appeared in China? He developed an anti-cancer drug, which is amazing. My life depends on taking his medicine."

"His company is called Sanqing. The medicine he developed is not only effective, but also very affordable. Later, it was even covered by medical insurance. Hey, let me tell you, this is an entrepreneur with a benevolent heart."

The family members scratched their heads and scratched their heads anxiously, but they couldn't be interrupted. When they reached the door, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Academician Qi strode to Mr. Xie's bed, slammed his crutches on the ground, and said with a smile: "Old man, it seems that your condition is okay, so I feel relieved. I have some good news for you today. , your disease is curable."

The old man on the bed didn't respond. He just stared at Academician Qi, as if thinking about something. After a while, he suddenly clapped his hands and said with a smile: "It's Mr. Qi, oh, what brought you here? Sit down, sit down." "

He struggled to get up and sit down. Family members and others gathered around him and listened.

Academician Qi sat down on the chair beside the bed, looked around, and then said: "That's it, I just got the news that a domestic pharmaceutical company called Sanqing has developed a specific drug for Alzheimer's disease. I came here to take you to Kunshi to try medicine and treatment."

The doctor was stunned for a moment: "No way, is there really a special medicine?"

Then he was overjoyed: "This is a big breakthrough in the medical field. Congratulations to Mr. Xie!"

The family members were overjoyed and nodded quickly: "That's great, Mr. Qi, we will follow you right away."

Others were also surprised and couldn't believe that happiness came so suddenly.

Academician Qi further explained the specifics of the new drug in detail.

"This new drug is a gamma-secretase inhibitor, which can inhibit gamma-secretase activity and effectively reduce amyloid deposition in the brain, thereby achieving therapeutic purposes."

"According to experimental data, this drug has no side effects, does not overload the body's internal organs, and does not affect your high blood pressure, which is rare."

"However, this drug has only passed safety and toxicology tests, and has not yet fully passed normal phase II clinical trials, so there may be undiscovered side effects. I must explain this in advance."

He turned to look at his family members: "How is it? I have also introduced the details of this medicine, so don't worry. After Lao Xie takes the medicine, there will definitely be an effect. This is mainly because he is still in the early stages of the disease and his brain is The local neurons have not been damaged too much, and as long as the accumulated amyloid is eliminated, they can return to normal."

"Fortunately, I encountered this new drug at an early stage. If Lao Xie was the kind of terminal patient who has lost the ability to take care of himself, to be honest, I would have no confidence in Sanqing."

After hearing these words, everyone was looking forward to the effects of the new medicine, and they all smiled.

Only Mr. Xie looked confused, but seeing everyone smiling happily, he also grinned.

The entire ward was instantly filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Academician Qi then took Mr. Xie and his family to Kunming First People's Hospital, and Wei Kang also rushed over with patent medicines.

Mr. Xie was taken to a separate ward, and his family members signed an agreement to participate in the clinical experiment.

Treatment begins.

In order to take effect as quickly as possible, intravenous drip was used this time.

The next day, Academician Qi came to the ward. As soon as he entered the door, Mr. Xie greeted him with a smile: "Mr. Qi, you are here. Thank you for taking me here to see the doctor yesterday. You took the trouble."

Academician Qi nodded in response: "That's right, we have been friends for so many years."

He was suddenly stunned. Mr. Xie had a very clear memory. He still remembered that he brought him here for medical treatment.

So I quickly called the nurse and asked Mr. Xie what he had done after taking the medicine yesterday.

The nurse said there was nothing unusual, she just slept very soundly and watched the news, nothing else.

Academician Qi chatted with Mr. Xie for a while and found that the other party was no longer confused and could remember clearly where he was now. Although he could not recall the details of his life a few days ago, he was much better than yesterday.

He was suddenly pleasantly surprised and looked forward to the subsequent effects of the medication.

Three days later, the hospital examined Mr. Xie.

After seeing the test results, the doctor left in a hurry.

"Everyone comes and takes a look. The examination report shows that the level of beta-amyloid protein in the body has dropped a lot. The magnetic resonance scan shows that the amyloid plaques in the brain have been significantly reduced."

"The patient's cognitive ability has improved significantly, and his mental state has improved significantly. I have carefully asked the patient about what happened in the past few days. He can clearly remember what time he got up, what he ate, what he did and other daily routines. Let him recall some of the previous events. I have remembered everything and can tell you the specific details.”

"Although I am not sure whether his memory has been fully restored and whether he has been completely cured, his overall condition is definitely improving, and the results of various physical indicators are better than before, and there is no sign of any organ damage."

"The effect of this new drug is very obvious, and it is really useful for patients in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease."

The other doctors were stunned.

Originally, doctors did not have high hopes for clinical trials of drugs. They all thought that as long as they could delay the patient's condition and prevent it from worsening, it would be good.

But now there are actually drugs that can really make Mr. Xie's condition better?

Domestic drugs to treat this disease, including a new foreign special drug, can only delay the disease and stabilize the patient's mood, but cannot completely restore the patient, let alone cure it.

As long as the patient's condition continues to improve, then complete treatment is possible.

It seems that Alzheimer's disease really has a cure and is no longer an incurable disease.

The doctors immediately became energetic. In the next few days, they carefully administered the medicine while monitoring changes in Mr. Xie's condition at any time.

Academician Qi and his family members also learned the good news from the doctor, and they were all overjoyed.

Before, I had the hope that a miracle would happen, but seeing a miracle happen in front of my own eyes gave people completely different feelings.

After Mr. Xie regained his energy, the first thing he remembered was work, and he kept asking the staff who came over when he could return to work again.

From time to time, his dissatisfied complaints could be heard in the ward.

"I'm telling you, my illness has healed and I can't delay my work any longer. As long as I take my medicine on time, I can maintain my current condition and it won't affect my work at all."

"Why are you so stubborn? If you don't believe me, ask me what happened yesterday, today, and the past few days. I remember everything clearly in my mind. How about you test me?"

After half a month of this, after examining Mr. Xie again, all the neurology doctors were stunned.

Judging from the results of recent examinations, Mr. Xie's symptoms have been relieved a lot. If he continues to take medicine, there is no doubt that he can return to his normal state.

Because aging is inevitable, as long as you continue to take medication, you can delay recurrence. In a sense, it is considered a cure.

The doctors discussed it all.

"I heard that the pharmaceutical company that developed this drug is Sanqing?"

"Yes, the famous anti-cancer drug before was also produced by Sanqing. This drug is the latest result of one of their research and development teams."

"There is such a powerful pharmaceutical company in China that can treat Alzheimer's disease. This is a world record."

A neurologist suddenly became excited: "Have they started the third clinical phase? This is an excellent paper. It will definitely be published in nature."

"Previously, the oncology department used the clinical phase III trial report to issue the first phase of The Lancet. We in the neurology department cannot miss this opportunity."

"Contact Sanqing quickly and talk to them about the treatment of Alzheimer's disease."

Next, the hospital switched the new medicine to an oral administration method and informed Mr. Xie that as long as he took the medicine on time and had regular examinations, he could be discharged.
