Chapter 2639 Wheat Allergy

"Flour allergy..." Song Ying heard this word for the first time.

Is it the usual flour? If he was allergic to flour, Song Ying really couldn't think of anything to eat.

Of course, there are still many things that can be eaten, but pasta such as dumplings for the Chinese New Year will be insulated from then on.

"It is imprecise to say that you are allergic to flour." Zheng Ren said, "The scientific name is gluten allergy. Gluten is a type of protein that exists in wheat, barley and rye. Generally speaking, after protein enters the gastrointestinal tract, it will be digested. into individual amino acids, which are then absorbed by the small intestine to become nutrients."

"Gluten protein cannot be completely decomposed into single amino acids, and some small fragments containing several amino acids will be retained. Such fragments are called polypeptides. Polypeptides can trigger the body's immune response, which is why some proteins have certain biological activities after oral administration s reason."

"Brave!" Su Yun looked at Zheng Ren with contempt and said.

If these words came out of other people's mouths, Zheng Ren would bear it. But is there any reason for a guy who has become a genius in ETC to say that he is a genius? !

"Uh... Boss Zheng, Xiao Su, can you speak more simply? It's too professional, and I, a layman, can't understand it." Song Ying was not polite, and if he didn't understand, he didn't understand, so he asked directly .

"Gluten allergy is also an overly general concept. In fact, detailed classification can be divided into three categories: celiac disease, non-celiac wheat sensitivity, and wheat allergy." Su Yundao, "The girl I mentioned was finally diagnosed as wheat allergy. A little bit of gluten can cause breathing difficulties that can be life-threatening."

"Wheat..." Song Ying sighed, "But wheat is often eaten, didn't she know it before?"

"Many people only discover that they have allergic reactions to certain foods when they are 2 or 30 years old. This is not surprising. It may be a change in the body's immune function, or it may be a problem with dietary adjustment." Zheng Rendao, "The situation of allergies It can range from mild to severe, and the patient in front of me is highly suspicious of celiac disease related to gluten allergy."

Song Ying didn't ask why, but just looked at Boss Zheng and Su Yun quietly. The two of them were also waiting, although they looked calm, they were actually a little absent-minded.

What they eat is really not important to them, the most important thing is to judge whether a condition is correct or not. Song Ying smiled wryly in his heart, he really wasn't crazy and couldn't survive.

Zheng Ren and Su Yun were still absent-minded until they started eating.

"Zheng Ren, what are you thinking?" Xie Yi asked, holding Zheng Ren's hand.

"One case, I think it might be a flour allergy." Zheng Ren said with a smile, "I don't want to, just eat."

Until then, there was a glimmer of life on the dining table.

Song Ying sincerely thanked Xie Yiren. It seems that the old saying is true, the strongest fortress is breached from the inside. If you want to please Boss Zheng, you must first please Xie Yiren.

Boss Zheng is like a rock, he doesn't seem to have any interest at all except medical issues. Su Yun may have more hobbies, but this person is too cunning, it is difficult to raise his favor quietly.

Just covering Moutai with iron is definitely not enough, especially after Song Ying learned about some superficial things about going to Europe this time, his mind became active.

It seems that I still have to follow the wife's route in the future, and find my lover, Xie Yiren, Chang Yue and the others to get in touch more. Are women together, shopping, shopping, should not be difficult to get along with.

It was just a very rough idea, Song Ying chatted while serving the wine. He briefly asked about Bota's private hospital and laboratory, and after listening to Su Yun's description, he had a certain concept in his mind.

This kind of laboratory is definitely not something that can be built with one's own financial resources. Only the world's top consortia are capable of doing these things.

Song Ying sighed inwardly. Boss Zheng is playing too high-end now, and if he doesn't pay attention, he doesn't seem to be able to use it if he wants to invest money.

More than an hour later, Zheng Ren received a call, and he immediately asked Su Yun to open the email to view the video material sent over.

Song Ying watched the light of the screen shine on the faces of the two, feeling a little weird in his heart.

"The middle and distal parts of the jejunum showed enlarged intestinal lumen, effusion and barium deposition." Su Yundao.

"Well, the intestinal flexure is segmented into snow flakes; the mucosal folds are thickened or the intestinal wall is smooth, showing the "wax tube" sign; the barium agent passes through time delayed, which can basically indicate that the patient has celiac disease from imaging." Zheng Ren said in a deep voice.

"The TSH value has been wrong and there is an explanation, which is caused by poor absorption in the gastrointestinal tract."

"It is recommended to go to the city for relevant examinations. Many examinations cannot be done in mental hospitals." Su Yun said, "Boss, your clinical experience is not rich enough this time."

Zheng Ren smiled and nodded, not thinking about winning or losing.

"Can't you be a little depressed? Or...you make me feel like I have no victory. If you can take a break, I'll ask you if you can!" Su Yun said contemptuously.

"What's the matter?" Chang Yue asked.

"Nanshan Mental Hospital has a patient with persecution delusions and progressive emaciation. The boss didn't know what the problem was after reading the medical records. I happened to have seen a patient with wheat allergies before, and I have researched on this aspect."

Su Yun said proudly.

For him, this is a major victory. The boss who seems to be invincible like a rock is actually a paper tiger!

Chang Yue frowned and asked: "I have mental problems and weight loss. Isn't this caused by poor eating? How can it be related to allergies?"

"What do you know?" Su Yun said, but when Chang Yue raised his hand to push the glasses, he smiled and said: "Celiac disease is an autoimmune systemic disease that can affect multiple organs. Gastrointestinal tract, causing diarrhea, abdominal pain, anorexia, vomiting, abdominal flatulence and other gastrointestinal symptoms. In addition to the involvement of the digestive system, it can also affect nerve cells, skin, bones, liver and other parts."

"It sounds like diarrhea, not as serious as a wheat allergy, but once you have mental symptoms, it's scary." Su Yunbi explained to Chang Yue with gestures, "Who would have thought that being persecuted and delusional is eating flour."

"Impossible, if there is a problem, don't you have to eat flour every day?" Chang Yue asked with some doubts, "I don't think it's very strict."

"How did you learn to speak up?" Su Yun said contemptuously: "I remember talking about my allergy to the antihypertensive drugs I took for a lifetime. Did you study medicine?"

Chang Yue pushed his glasses, without making any distinctions, but picked up a bottle of Moutai with an iron cap.
