Now, although medical technology is more and more developed, many scientists and doctors still feel headache about cancer. It is still difficult to defeat cancer completely. So recently, scientists predict that cancer will be conquered. What's going on? Is it true or false? Let's solve the mystery with Xiaobian.
Is cancer really so simple that it has been conquered by Chinese scientists?
Recently, a news about malaria infection and cancer treatment exploded in the media. Professor Chen Xiaoping, Guangzhou Institute of biomedicine and health, Chinese Academy of Sciences, delivered a speech at the forum of 'self Gezhi Lun Dao', introducing the principle and phased achievements of Plasmodium infection in the treatment of advanced cancer. CCTV news gave a large report at 30 points. Subsequently, various media comments poured in, and voices of support and doubt were heard. At the same time, patients all over the country have exploded their consultation calls.
At present, there is almost no official voice of clear support. Only cancer patients or their families expressed a certain degree of excitement and expectation, but this voice has little scientific significance.
More position is to question. The most intense accusations are Professor Chen Xiaoping's disregard for life, academic corruption, violation of medical ethics, commercial profit-making and other acts. For example, an article entitled "behind the popularity of malaria cancer treatment: a patient committed suicide and the investor is going to be listed for two years" cites a lot of information, which is very confusing, but the article is quite lax and full of hostility, which is not written by professionals.
So, how to treat Professor Chen Xiaoping's research? I think we have to return to the lecture video released by him at the forum of 'self Ge Zhi Lun Dao', which is the only basis we can get for judging this matter at present.
When all other media reported Professor Chen Xiaoping's research results, there were too many professional errors, amplified and advocated the research results, so they did not well reflect Professor Chen Xiaoping's original intention. The report with 30 points of CCTV news should be a simple editing by a reporter after integrating a lot of information without strict review. In fact, there are also many loose places in the report. In the era of proliferation of we media, everyone wants to say something. As a result, it is beyond recognition.
Judging from all Professor Chen Xiaoping's speeches, his every sentence is basically rigorous, and his preciseness is said while giving a speech while thinking, which is not easy. Although he is engaged in immunology, it can be seen that his knowledge of cancer medicine is also in place. Based on this, I respected his scientific spirit in a previous article.
For example, Professor Chen Xiaoping said in his speech: 'two of them may have been cured.' Please note that the word "possible" is used here, which shows that he has a deep understanding of cancer. One of the two patients was a patient with lung cancer with neck metastasis numbered 01003, from Taiyuan, Shanxi Province. One month later, all metastatic lesions in the neck of the patient completely disappeared, and some morphological and histological changes occurred in the primary lesions of the lung. Then, the primary lesions of the lung were removed surgically. The patient has survived for nearly two years without recurrence and metastasis. It should be a miracle if Professor Chen Xiaoping does not make up facts about the treatment of advanced lung cancer to such an extent. According to common sense, Professor Chen Xiaoping and his team are unlikely to cheat on this matter, and their clinical trials should be strictly standardized. At least during this period, the patients should not receive any other treatment, otherwise, the clinical trials will be affected by other factors, so this case needs to be eliminated. If it is true that it is so casual to fake, it is incredible, because Professor Chen Xiaoping is not doing it alone, but under the supervision of other members of his team, clinical units, subjects and the health administrative department that approved the clinical trial.
In the field of cancer, it's amazing to say the sentence "may be cured", and many doctors may not understand this truth. In fact, according to Professor Chen Xiaoping's description, the two patients who 'may be cured' meet the medical standard of 'clinical cure'.
Cancer, cure in the strict sense, is extremely rare, so the word cure is usually not used in medicine for cancer. The most standard term is' clinical cure ', which means that the patient has no tumor entity and corresponding cancer symptoms, which means clinical cure. Anyone who uses the word cure indiscriminately is not rigorous. Professor Chen Xiaoping said that it may be cured, which is the embodiment of the spirit of science and seeking truth from facts.
