Chapter 71 Beta-Phenethylamine

"Congratulations, you have obtained the basics of electrocardiogram!"

"Congratulations, you have obtained the basics of literature reading!"

The two skill books turned into a beam of light and flew into Lu Chen's mind.

The first, the basics of the electrocardiogram.

Lu Chen is very clear about this skill book.

The skill book he won for the first time was the basics of electrocardiogram.

This "medium" should be an advanced version.

But this second skill book, the basics of literature reading, Lu Chen was a little confused.

It may be a skill book that increases the efficiency of document reading.

However, most of the literature read by doctors and students is in English.

I wonder if this skill book is helpful for reading foreign literature?
You know, medical English is not the same as orthodox English.

Too many medical terminology needs to be memorized, and basically there is no rule.

The sentence structure and grammar of English literature are not difficult, but the difficulty lies in the extremely rare vocabulary!
In order to verify their own ideas.

Lu Chen took out the mobile phone beside the bed and found an English document he had kept.

This article is the latest published in Nat Commun magazine.

The title is "Cytotoxic CD8+T cells promote granzyme B-depengent adverse post-ischemic cardiac remodeling".

This document is very difficult. Lu Chen has studied it for three days and can only understand the superficial meaning of it.

"call……"

Lu Chen took a long breath, opened the document again, and started reading.

When he read the first paragraph, he froze.

“Acute myocardial infarction is a common condition responsible for…”

The text information in English came into my mind.

but.

Directly output the information in Chinese!

"A common disease leading to heart failure and sudden death during acute myocardial infarction. In this paper, we reveal that after acute myocardial infarction in mice, CD8+ T lymphocytes are recruited and activated in ischemic heart tissue..."

It was as if Lu Chen had already memorized the article, and there was no obstacle in reading it.

But Lu Chen can be sure that he has never read so smoothly before!
Lu Chen continued to look down.

He found that his understanding of this article was not limited to the superficial meaning of the words.

It also has a deeper understanding of the experimental process and research conclusions!
"It can really improve the reading ability of foreign literature!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Lu Chen's eyes.

To be honest, he was extremely annoyed by being forced to learn English since he was a child.

In particular, since medical science, almost all frontier medical knowledge is in foreign language literature.

Now that I have this kind of skill book, I can save a lot of energy and devote myself to medical study.

To be on the safe side, Lu Chen searched for a brand new article again.

One he'd never seen.

There is still no obstacle in reading, this ability still exists!
"Great!"

Lu Chen's face showed joy.

Sudden.

He thought of the "Internet celebrity" fitness powder last night.

The instructions for dry powder are all in English, and many of them are abbreviations.

It's really hard to translate the ingredients if you don't read this line specifically.

Now with this skill book.

He may be able to find the "harmful ingredients" in it!
Just do it!

Lu Chen immediately opened the Douyin app.

Find the instructions for the "Fitness Dry Powder".

(The manual will be placed in the comment area, interested students can read it, all in English.)
There are many ingredients in fitness dry powder.

Lu Chen can only find the ingredients he is familiar with first, make sure that they have no side effects, and eliminate these ingredients.

Then find ingredients you haven't seen before.

Inquire about its specific content on the Internet.

……

It took about half an hour to check.

Relying on the "literature reading" skill book, Lu Chen successfully locked down an ingredient in the dry fitness powder.

Beta-Phenylethylamine!
In the ingredient description of the fitness dry powder, beta-phenylethylamine is described as helping to maintain focus, maintain a good mood, and maintain alertness.

This reminded Lu Chen of another phenethylamine-α-methylphenethylamine.

Also sometimes written amphetamine, is a central nervous system stimulant used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, narcolepsy, and obesity.

This name is not well known to everyone.

But alpha-methylphenethylamine is closely related to another well-known substance, methamphetamine (also known as methamphetamine).

The latter crystalline form is colloquially known as methamphetamine, or "pork" in slang.

It is a potent central nervous system stimulant used primarily as a drug and occasionally to treat ADHD and obesity.

And their good brother, β-phenylethylamine, is approved for dietary health products and fitness supplements because of a similar mechanism.

It's just that everyone who has studied medicine knows it.

If high doses of methamphetamine are taken, it can cause psychosis due to central nervous system stimulation, rhabdomyolysis, generalized seizures, and intracranial hemorrhage.

Overdose can also cause mild brain damage due to dopamine-activated and serotonin-activated neurotoxicity.

The long-term existence of these substances will produce a continuous stimulating effect on the post-synaptic membrane and stimulate the central nervous system to continue to be excited.

Increase the contractility of the heart, increase the excitability, accelerate the conduction, increase the cardiac output, and accelerate the heart rate; at the same time, it strengthens the contraction of the blood vessels and increases the blood pressure.

Seeing this, the cause of the "net celebrity" finally became clear.

And at this moment, Lu Chen suddenly received a prompt from the system.

"Congratulations, the completion of the system upgrade has increased by 1%!"

It seems that the culprit of everything is β-phenylethylamine!
Lu Chen immediately edited his discovery into a document and sent it to Sun Guoguo.

……

Jinghua Second Hospital, in a rental house in a nearby community.

"Guoguo, you just got off the night shift and you're still not asleep? You can write the thesis tomorrow."

Liu Mei and Sun Guoguo are roommates sharing the rent.

She was about to go to bed, but when she passed Sun Guoguo's room, she was still sitting in front of the computer.

Sun Guoguo shook her head vigorously, picked up the coffee on her desk, and took a big sip.

"I'm not writing a thesis, I'm reading an instruction manual in English to find out what ingredients are on it."

"Instructions?" Liu Mei walked into the room and leaned her head over, "What's going on?"

"It's the thing that happened in the eighth district of our hearts last night." Sun Guoguo said helplessly, "We suspect that the thing happened after he ate this dry fitness powder, but we haven't found out the specific ingredients, so we can't make a conclusion .”

Liu Mei raised her eyebrows.

"You just hand this over to the School of Pharmacy to check it out. You check it out one by one. When will you check it out?"

Sun Guoguo shrugged and said, "The school of pharmacy has also contacted, but now this matter is imminent. If they wait another ten days and a half months, the day lily will be cold when their research results come out."

"Okay, then go to bed early." Liu Mei yawned and was about to leave.

At this moment, Sun Guoguo let out a soft "Huh".

Liu Mei stepped forward and looked back at Sun Guoguo.

At this time, Sun Guoguo opened the email from Lu Chen with a puzzled look.

Sun Guoguo was slightly taken aback by the content of the entry.

Here's what's on that fitness dry powder ingredient list.

"Beta-phenylethylamine...stimulates the central nervous system to continue to excite. It increases the contractility of the heart, increases the cardiac output, increases the heart rate, and at the same time strengthens the contraction of blood vessels, increasing blood pressure..."

Sun Guoguo was surprised and delighted after reading the entire document.

Fortunately, I finally found the "harmful ingredients" in the dry fitness powder!
Surprisingly, it was Lu Chen who found it!

This kind of drug instructions in English has complicated ingredients and rare words.

Even students majoring in pharmacy have to analyze for a long time.

Lu Chen actually found it so quickly!
"Guoguo, what's the matter?"

Liu Mei looked at Sun Guoguo who looked surprised.

"found it!"

"Ah? Didn't you just say it would take a long time?"

"It wasn't me, nor the school of pharmacy, it was Junior Brother Lu Chen!" Sun Guoguo excitedly said, "He found it!"

"Lu Chen? Is that handsome guy from your group?" Liu Mei asked in surprise.

"Ah."

Sun Guoguo nodded, and was going to forward the document sent by Lu Chen to Director Guo of the Medical Department and Mentor Li Yao.

"I think he is very good in clinical practice, but I didn't expect him to be so good in academics." Liu Mei smiled, "Director Li really recruited a good student this year."

Sun Guoguo glanced at Liu Mei who was wearing pink pajamas, "Hurry up and find a boyfriend, don't bully the kids."

Liu Mei spread her hands and left Sun Guoguo's room with a smile.

Sun Guoguo ignored Liu Mei.

Click the forward button to send Lu Chen's email!
……

Li Yao, who is in the office of the director of the eighth district in the heart.

The first time I saw the email sent by Sun Guoguo.

"Beta-phenylethylamine? Is this..."

The corners of Li Yao's mouth could not help but curl up.

A faint smile appeared on her originally indifferent face.

At the same time, Director Guo of the medical department.

He also received an email from Sun Guoguo.

A "counterattack" from the hospital kicked off!
