Chapter 519 Antioxidant Miracle(1/2)
Although we often hear about drug trials, this is the first time for Li Qing to participate in a clinical trial.
He picked up the "Informed Consent Form" and read it carefully as a habit.
The above content is very detailed, including the purpose of this clinical study, drug information, selection requirements, project procedures, precautions and research compensation, etc., and is explained very clearly.
"Clinical study of new antioxidative enzyme promoter drugs... Candidates must have been exposed to ionizing radiation in a short period of time..."
"The volume of blood collected in the entire trial is about 180 ml for men...the time of admission, taking medicine and leaving the hospital are respectively...diet, tobacco and alcohol taboos..."
"Food and lodging in the hospital for 6 days will provide a compensation of 5,000 yuan."
Li Qing was immediately happy when he saw this.
"Hey, you can make extra money by taking a vacation. It's a good way to do it. No wonder there are so many professional drug testers."
"It's not bad. If you get money, it's much better than a lab rat."
Is it because of good sleep or because of the effectiveness of the medicine?
Li Qing thought for a while and felt that the medicine he had just taken for a day should not have such an immediate effect. It seemed that it was because he slept well and was not stressed.
With both hands operating on the computer, Li Qing's daily test results soon appeared on the screen.
Li Qing still wanted to try harder: "Well, actually I am also a doctor in this hospital, so I can understand it."
After the physical examination, I found some familiar faces.
"No, I have to go find the staff to make sure. I think I'm in good condition these days. I can't be taking a placebo."
Some are obsessed with improving their scores in the fifth row, and are said to have ranked first in their community.
"That's right, the results of your department's drug tests are so good that word has spread all over the place." Lao Fang laughed boldly: "I hurriedly brought these bastards in the department over."
Another doctor was a little worried: "Isn't it said that the greater the risk of the drug, the higher the compensation for the trial drug? It's 5,000 yuan for 6 days. Is this money so easy to get? It feels a bit scary."
However, the number of people was much smaller this time, and the registration staff already had experience and directly handed over an information letter.
"The effect is so obvious, even a blind person can see it. Why do we need to be double-blind? We can just let us all take the medicine together."
The staff member nodded: "Okay, let me see, is it Li Qing?"
Li Qing pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said: "There should be no problem. Sanqing's medicine has always had less side effects. It stands to reason that the risk is not high, and the price is high. It should be because it is a new medicine and there are no similar medicines, so the compensation for trial medicine is not high."
As low as generic drugs.”
Everyone nodded in unison, just like a row of chickens pecking at rice at the same time, with uniform movements.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.
"So, I ran to the staff and revealed my identity as the deputy director of the interventional department, and then I got the results of my blood tests in the past few days."
All I know is that I feel refreshed for a while, but when I take the blood collection in the afternoon, I will probably have a headache.
"Well, I want to ask how the SOD level is? Have the white blood cells increased?"
Some colleagues used their own laptops to watch movies, and directly used up all the storage accumulated in the hard drive over the years.
"I can't wait to see the results of your blood test today."
"Oh! The value has returned to normal?" Everyone gasped at the same time and looked at him in shock.
The pre-check-in inspection is very strict. Everyone has to take off their clothes and check their whole bodies. Even their shoes have to be taken off to check whether there is anything inside.
"What? Your SOD was less than 100 before, but your white blood cells were 2,800?"
In this way, after the two cycles of trial medicine are over, and you have completely recovered, you can come back and continue the surgery to replace Director Yao, the hard-working old scalper.
The previous clinical phases were all done on healthy people, and they all selected young college students, all of whom were very active. Except for the difference in the SOD test data, it was really impossible to see that the drug had any special effect.
"Your face is shining brightly. What's going on? Did you find someone outside behind your sister-in-law's back?"
"Wait a minute, let me take a look at the values when you checked in so that we can compare."
"But returning to normal values within three days is too exaggerated. Is it the result of taking drugs?"
"Hey, isn't this Director Fang from the Interventional Department of the City Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine? Why, are these people from your department?"
But on the third day, when he looked in the mirror and brushed his teeth, he found that the redness, swelling and blisters on his forehead and chin had disappeared.
Colleagues marveled at his condition: "Old Li, are you showing your second youth as a middle-aged man?"
They will return to the interventional department and do some daily work. As long as they do not enter the operating room, the possibility of being exposed to radiation in the department is still relatively small, and it will not have a big impact on the body.
During the middle week, Director Yao had already heard about the miraculous effects of antioxidant drugs, and his mouth watered with envy.
"You all know that before I came in, my radiation dose was the highest, it was 120, and my white blood cells dropped below 4,000. And I am the oldest, so I am really weak."
A smug smile appeared on Li Qing's face, he was both satisfied and contented, and he spoke slowly.
The staff looked sympathetic: "It's true, you are in the interventional department, right? It's really not easy."
These are the injuries caused to the body over many years. Even if you take a break for a week or two, it will be difficult to fully recover.
After he was replaced, he didn't even return home and went straight from the operating room to the clinical building.
After putting on gray pajamas and arriving on the second floor, Li Qing went directly to bed, feeling relaxed and comfortable.
Although there are some patients in the second clinical phase, there are more elderly people, and the rise and fall of SOD values are also measured. Even if the elderly are healthy, their performance will be limited.
"Let's go together."
Li Qing glared angrily and said, "Okay, okay, you guys are eating and drinking well here. If you sleep enough for 8 hours a day, even if you take a placebo, your health should be better."
"Well, the SOD value is 145 and the white blood cells are 4280. Although it is not high, it is within the normal range."
"Is this the scary thing about the experimental group? Damn it, I hate it so much. Why am I in the comfort group?"
"Director, this can't be done. I remember that when you first came in, the radiation dose was so high that the staff didn't dare to stay around you for fear of being radiated by you."
After a silence, it was like a hornet's nest exploding, and the crowd became excited.
Because the performance of the subjects who took the medicine was so obvious, their physical fitness has been greatly improved, and they are extremely healthy.
The Sanqing clinical research team is also very happy.
Li Qing enjoyed most of the time here. The air-conditioning temperature was neither too hot nor too cold, and each meal consisted of three meats and two vegetables. He could spend as much time as he wanted when he was not collecting blood.
Director Yao didn't even look at it. He just signed and went for a physical examination.
Li Qing recalled that value and felt a little scared, but after thinking about it, he asked again.
Although the test subjects who did not take the medicine but only took the placebo rested well and regained their energy, they still suffered from backaches and backaches as they either lay down or sat every day.
The staff member raised his head and glanced at him, seeming to remember something, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "This is a double-blind trial, I can't say anything about the relevant information casually."
"I know that radiation sickness depends on internal or external radiation. Mine is caused by small doses of external radiation. As long as I no longer receive radiation, it will slowly heal little by little."
Whether it's watching a drama, playing games, or even gathering people to play cards in public areas, no one cares.
Li Qing was also surprised, but he was more delighted. Anyone who could regain health in a short period of time would be overjoyed.
Due to long-term exposure to rays, skin is prone to allergies and hair loss is easy. No matter how thick my hair was when I was young, hair would fall out all over the place when I showered at night. Now my hair has fallen out less.
"Look at it this way, I should be in the experimental group, not the control group?"
Director Yao took a closer look, suddenly smiled, stretched out his hand from a distance, and greeted him.
Who would have thought that if it were these traumatized middle-aged people, the effect would be so good.
"No way, a regular schedule is just so effective." Li Qing couldn't help but mutter to himself.
As for personal items such as cigarettes, lighters, and water bottles, they are kept in the clinical building and can only be returned when you leave.
After a while, he stammered: "Your value rose so fast. It returned from a low value to normal in two days. No wonder you feel in good condition."
"Even if you rest for a few days and your body will slowly recover, it won't be possible for you to recover so quickly."
Li Qing did not participate in any of these activities. His schedule was very regular. He watched the news and played short videos in the morning, played Landlords with a few poker friends in the afternoon, watched the news and TV series in the evening, called his family for half an hour before going to bed, and then hit the clock at ten o'clock.
sleep.
Because his life was too healthy, he didn't know who to attribute it to for a while.
In this way, the contrast between the two is too sharp, and the experimental group and the control group completely lose their meaning.
When he said this, he was extremely happy and started praising:
"The new drug Sanqing is really effective and it works so quickly. It's amazing."
It's like taking a shot of chicken blood, all kinds of physical data are constantly rising, and the contrast is full.
Li Qing persisted and said: "That's right, I've been feeling very good these past two days, so I'm a little curious, so just tell me the white blood cell count. I'll naturally know what's going on."
However, some people immediately guessed: "Lao Li, your state is indeed a bit too good. Are you lucky enough to be in the experimental group? Those of us who don't feel it are just taking a placebo."
He was an optimist. He turned to the last page without even looking at it, signed the consent form, and went straight to the physical examination room.
"Director Yao, are you there too?" A strong, bald man strode towards him.
The routine physical examination ended soon, and all the people in the interventional department met the recruitment conditions and were successfully selected.
Whether it is the test results or the doctors' own feelings, they all feel that they are refreshed, their waists are no longer sore, their backs are no longer painful, there are no acne on their faces, new hair has grown on their foreheads, and their skin has become smooth.
Much better, not as rough as before.
