Chapter 33 The Teacher Summons Me!
"What's your name? Was it changed to the wrong one?"
The associate professor in charge of recording scores turned his head and glanced at the professor in charge of tallying and announcing the scores.
The professor flipped through the answer sheet again.
"It's 99 points. I lost one point on the orthopedics section, but all the others were perfect."
"It's only one point short, it's easy to tally." Although the professor found it a bit strange that the person recording the scores was talking to him, he didn't pay much attention to it considering how odd the score was.
With this set of exam questions, the few people responsible for setting the questions can get 90 points, but getting 99 is extremely difficult.
After all, it involves the treatment of multiple diseases across multiple specialties.
"Both 99 points and a perfect score require caution; let's refine his answer further!"
"That's strange," a professor said, quickly reaching for the answer sheet.
When grading exam papers, they are circulated and revised among internal and external groups, so the final score of the paper is not considered until the scores are tallied.
There were over 500 test papers, all with comprehensive questions, and everyone was just focused on finishing the task as quickly as possible.
Twenty minutes later!
The exam paper was passed to Dong Anhua.
Professor Qu Lin said matter-of-factly, "Professor Dong, according to your grading standards, this point cannot be deducted."
Dong Anhua spotted Chen Zhuoan's name immediately: "That won't do. This student is from our orthopedics department, and he's my student."
"If there are any mistakes or omissions, points will be deducted from his score."
"Although mild rhabdomyolysis does not put a burden on the body, it has already shown signs and needs to be monitored."
"At least one mention is necessary."
Many people turned to look, and one person even instinctively asked, "Is this your student? And what about him?"
Professor Qu Lin tapped the table and coughed, "Professor Ding, are you questioning the character of the other question setters?"
The six question setters were assembled and put together hastily in the morning.
Each person gave three questions, and in the end, six questions were drawn and sealed.
If Dong Anhua could leak three of his orthopedic exam questions, where did he get fifteen sets of questions from the other five people?
"I didn't mean that," Professor Ding quickly shut his mouth.
Professor Deng, the head of the Department of Surgery, said, "Professor Dong, since he is your student, why don't you call him over? We'll have a face-to-face consultation."
"After all, the publication of these results may cause quite a stir."
"We also need to understand the more specific details."
Dong Anhua put down the exam paper: "Alright."
Dong Anhua then made the phone call.
……
After having dinner with Su Xiheng, Chen Zhuoan took Su Xiheng to her laboratory.
Chen Zhuoan then took his computer to the library to download some documents.
He suddenly received a call from his teacher, so he had no choice but to carry his computer from the administration building to the graduate teaching building.
Upon arriving at the third floor of the graduate school, Chen Zhuoan gently knocked on the door of a large office.
After receiving the instruction to come in, Chen Zhuoan pushed open the door and saw more than twenty people. He then turned his head and focused his gaze on Dong Anhua.
"Master..."
At this point, the scoring was complete, and the total scores and rankings were displayed in the Excel file on the computer.
Chen Zhuoan scored a high score of 99 points, ranking first by a wide margin.
"Zhuo'an, come here for a second. How many points do you think you can get this time?" Dong Anhua beckoned to Chen Zhuo'an.
"Above 95 points, I just saw it, it's 99." Chen Zhuoan calmly pointed to the computer.
A professor of rheumatology and immunology immediately said, "Antibody-positive dermatomyositis-associated rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease?"
"You have some understanding of this as well?"
The three questions in the internal medicine exam were all very rigorous and demanding.
The first question covers the detailed differential diagnosis between cardiology and psychiatry.
The second question concerns interdisciplinary diseases in dermatology, gastroenterology, and hematology, spanning multiple non-surgical departments.
The third question, about rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease, spanned both rheumatology and immunology and respiratory medicine.
Moreover, it is a concept that has only been proposed in recent years.
Chen Zhuoan thought about it seriously for a moment, then stroked his chin: "It should be in 05, when Sato's team in Japan discovered a specific antibody in the serum of patients with amyopathy dermatomyositis and clearly pointed out that it was closely related to rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease."
"Last year, in 09, the antibody's target antigen was confirmed to be the protein encoded by melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5)!"
The professor from the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology looked Chen Zhuoan up and down: "You still read this kind of literature?"
Chen Zhuoan: "These patients have keratosis and cracking of the skin on the outer sides of their fingers and palms, similar to the hands of a mechanic."
"When the prognosis is poor, deeper ulcers may also occur on the extensor surfaces of the elbows, knees, or fingers."
Chen Zhuoan patted himself on the back: "Ulcers are a subspecialty of our hand surgery flap transplantation."
"That's what my teacher does."
"Sometimes, when we encounter small ulcers that are not responding well to treatment, we will also investigate other causes."
Chen Zhuoan is an old hand, and his knowledge is astonishing. His casual answers are so flawless that no one can find any fault with them.
The question stem mentions "household hands," which are rough and cracked—this is exactly what orthopedics does.
In the office, many people looked at each other in bewilderment.
They couldn't find anything wrong with Chen Zhuoan's logic, but that seemed to be the biggest problem.
A professor in the respiratory medicine department suddenly said, "Can you guess the prognosis of this case?"
Chen Zhuoan thought about it for a while, and finally shook his head.
In fact, he knew that if he encountered a patient like this in 10 years, the patient would most likely die in the respiratory ICU.
The pathogenesis wasn't understood until 09, so there was no standard treatment plan at all.
"In orthopedics, we only encounter patients in the complication stage. End-stage patients are usually seen in dermatology and respiratory medicine."
"May I ask the teacher?" Chen Zhuoan bowed slightly.
Chen Zhuoan didn't say much, but every word he uttered perfectly explained his ignorance and thirst for knowledge.
"Sigh..." Professor Kuang from the Department of Respiratory Medicine sighed, and that one sigh said it all.
Professor Kuang continued, "I think Xiao Chen's answers regarding internal medicine are perfectly fine."
If you search for these cases online, you will absolutely not find the correct answers.
Baidu or other search engines either don't understand the question stem or lead you in completely inappropriate directions.
Professor Deng, the director of the Department of Surgery, stated: "We will not shy away from recommending people based on personal connections."
"The surgical questions this time were fairly standard. Apart from the orthopedic case analysis questions which were more detailed, the rest of the answers were well-structured, and the score rate was not low."
"Our surgical department certainly recognizes Chen Zhuoan's achievements!"
Facing numerous gazes, Dong Anhua declared, "I didn't leak the exam questions!"
The professor from the Department of Internal Medicine approached Chen Zhuoan and gently patted him on the shoulder: "Not bad, young man! Knowledgeable and quick-witted."
"Let's try our best to represent our hospital and our school and get good results this time."
"You'll be the captain of the number one seed. How do you plan to build your team from here on out?"
"According to the usual arrangement, our hospital will select the top 30 as candidates to form two teams to participate in the provincial competition."
The skill gap between the top 30 participants is not significant; in the end, the clinical reasoning competition will inevitably be a test of teamwork ability.
Therefore, team formation is relatively flexible.
Chen Zhuoan nodded seriously, quite calmly: "I respect the teachers' arrangements. I will select team members after the list of team members is released."
The matter should have ended here.
But Dong Anhua suddenly fired a cold arrow: "Chen Zhuoan, tell me, what exactly is the standard answer to the last question on the undergraduate exam?"
"The match is over, and the scores have been given."
"But we still don't understand..."
Dong Anhua's words instantly made Chen Zhuoan the focus of attention in the office once again.
Many people stood up spontaneously.
