The old man suffered from Alzheimer’s disease, and the cartoonist’s son recorded his father’s story with a paintbrush.

When Rod Hosband began to forget his phone number, lock the door, date and go home, his family realized that Old Rod was suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. His cartoonist son Tony Husband recorded his father’s life after suffering from Alzheimer’s disease with a paintbrush. His father was still with him, but he gradually lost his memory of the family he loved deeply and his ability to take care of himself. Although Tony tried to record and express with humorous strokes, we could still feel the heartache of our family and the helplessness we could not cope with in the pictures. Father was originally a happy and comfortable old man. ▼ He loves painting ▼ Play the piano ▼ Often get Read More …

How should platform surgery be done? Reflections on a Medical Dispute in Massachusetts General Hospital

For surgeons, it is quite common for the chief surgeon professor (including the chief assistant) to perform the table-taking (platform-jumping, platform-flying) operation after completing the key operation of the main parts, and the assistant, resident doctor or intern to complete the less difficult operation part. However, a recent medical dispute in the United States has given us new thinking. How should platform surgery be done? Medical Disputes in Top Hospitals in the United States This medical treatment occurred at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), which ranks first in clinical comprehensive treatment in the United States.

The nutrition department of the hospital can help you do what?

As an auxiliary department of the hospital, the nutrition department is doomed to be impossible to go to emergency rescue like the popular internal medicine and surgery department. As a nutrition doctor, although I hate the embarrassing position of the nutrition department, complaining alone cannot play a role in what. Therefore, I very much hope to use the platform of Clove Garden to share with my clinical colleagues that our nutrition department can help everyone to do what, and we can jointly provide what for patients. Identify malnourished people and benefit them. Most clinical colleagues may think this is simple, as long as they see thin people. However, it may not be common for colleagues to think of considering nutritional Read More …

Synovial Sarcoma, Used Car and Our Future

I wanted to buy a car recently, but I was short of money. Taking advantage of the vacation, I came to the used car market. In front of the identical BMW, the boss stopped and said to me, “150,000 on the left and 250,000 on the right are all the same as the new ones. You can choose them.” I turned around the two cars three times and could not see any difference between what. [Which one is better? I asked. The boss squatted on the ground and looked at me smiling and said, “Every penny counts, depending on what you are trying to do.” I know myself for the sake of face, so I chose the 150,000 car.

Learn cardiopulmonary resuscitation well, human life may be saved by it.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation, a life-saving technology, has not been paid attention to and used correctly for a long time. What’s more, in the eyes of many people (including many medical personnel), it has become a “ceremony to announce the death of patients”. Why does this good technology give everyone such an illusion? What’s wrong? Wrong time, place and wrong indications. Incorrect cardiopulmonary resuscitation has made the success rate almost zero. Step 1: Wrong Time From 2000 to 2010, I was engaged in pre-hospital first aid, that is, I took an ambulance to the first aid site every day to give first aid to patients. However, in the past ten years, I have only saved one person. Why has only one person Read More …

Why is the skin of private parts darker?

There is a saying circulating on the Internet: [Goddess is black fungus]. It implies that although beauty is gentle, she has already had sex, blackening her perineum and showing her disdain, as if as long as a woman has a blackened perineum, she is worthless. In fact, this is not the case at all. Privates are inherently darker than normal skin. The depth of skin color depends on the number of melanocytes. Melanocytes are located in the basal layer of the epidermis of our skin. They are like factories that constantly produce melanin. However, the distribution of melanocytes in different parts of the body is different. For example, the density of melanocytes in facial skin is twice as high as Read More …
