The Sports Healer Starting from Milan

Chapter 113 A Testing Theory Ahead of Its Time

As soon as Lin Mu finished speaking, the conference room fell silent.

There was no response from the other end of the phone.

Roberto Mochini gave the head of the endocrinology department, Sadrike, a wink.

The other person responded with a shocked expression.

Currently, almost no one attempts to perform thyroid function tests under stress on athletes with hypothyroidism.

Because it is not standardized.

There are no guidelines either.

Lin Mu shrugged in response to the surprised looks on everyone's faces.

In 2006, sports medicine remained relatively conservative.

This viewpoint actually became quite popular five years later.

In 2015, the International Federation of Sports Medicine even recognized this as a consensus, and it was among the basic knowledge learned in the classes before the forest crossing.

"Could you explain in more detail?"

"Torini asked."

Anna immediately held the phone up to Lin Mu.

"In fact, under normal resting conditions, patients' TSH can be considered barely normal. However, if nothing unexpected happens, patients' TSH will spike after exercise, FT3 will not rise, and rT3 will rise, resulting in poor metabolism, poor muscle recovery, joint edema and a series of other problems."

Lin Mu said that TSH is thyroid-stimulating hormone and FT3 is free triiodothyronine.

These are all indicators for assessing the thyroid gland.

"My suggestion is to conduct load tests in stages: resting, moderate intensity, and high intensity. If possible, add a post-race test and look at the dynamic curve instead of individual values."

Lin Mu didn't notice the shocked eyes in the conference room. "This is to obtain a more precise dosage."

As he spoke, he opened the system.

[Dynamic thyroid function assessment: Lv1 (20/50)]

Below are other skills that can be upgraded, such as "Thyroid Exercise Physiology" and "Personalized Drug Administration".

However, no additional trees are allowed to be planted.

Inter Milan's victory over Roma earned him 140 experience points.

He spent 1400 on Totti before, so he's not exactly flush with cash right now. He's even planning to go into spine surgery.

There is no extra experience to add to the field of endocrinology.

"I haven't seen this idea in the literature."

The other hospitals echoed this sentiment.

"Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it's wrong. I agree with Wood's direction. The synthesis and secretion of thyroid hormones have a reserve mechanism. Hypothyroidism means that the reserve is damaged. Once you add exercise load, the demand exceeds the reserve, and the problem is exposed."

Dr. Sadrick, head of the endocrinology department at San Rafael Hospital, stated directly.

Cody Anderson, sitting opposite him, twitched at the corner of his mouth.

He thought to himself that now almost every department in the hospital, including orthopedics, endocrinology, and neurosurgery, knew what the consequences of opposing Lin Mu would be.

They were humiliated and humiliated.

Cody Anderson felt he was being used as a cautionary tale.

"That makes a lot of sense."

Torelli's voice came through the phone, "Dr. Wood has very sharp clinical thinking; is he a student of Professor Finni at the University of Milan?"

She had heard the other person boast about having a very good student at an academic conference.

It seems to be called "Wood".

Cody Anderson immediately changed his expression, barely able to suppress the upward curve of his lips.

"Well..."

Sadrick said awkwardly, "Dr. Wood is an orthopedic surgeon and a student of Professor Mochini."

"Are you kidding me?"

Torene was stunned.

"Dr. Wood also has some knowledge in areas other than orthopedics."

Sadrick had heard of the infamous scene where Lin Mu had driven a group of neurosurgeons to the brink of collapse.

Scholes's complex illness was diagnosed in three minutes.

"All right."

Torene's voice was muffled, clearly indicating that she had been shocked.

The person on the other end of the phone was different.

"Let's continue the meeting. Next, we'll discuss the patient's knee injury. Due to a series of previous injuries, the patient has developed calcified bone fragments in his knee."

"The patient is currently requesting to avoid surgery before the World Cup, meaning conservative treatment."

The group started discussing it again.

Actually, there's not much to discuss regarding conservative treatment.

Lin Mu pulled out a piece of paper, but after patting himself down, he couldn't find a pen.

At that moment, a ballpoint pen appeared from the side.

Lin Mu glanced sideways and saw that Anna had handed it to him.

Lin Mu also noticed that Anna's white coat seemed to have many guns hidden in its bulging pockets.

"That explains why I couldn't find my pen."

Lin Mu took the pen, stuffed it into his pocket, and beckoned to Lin Mu.

Anna pouted and reluctantly took another one and put it in Lin Mu's hand.

Lin Mu drew a flowchart on the paper.

Knee problems are my specialty, such as calcification of the left tibia with bone fragments.

What are the outcomes of conservative treatment?

It hurts so much!

Having bone fragments in your knee is like having pebbles in your shoe.

The latter can still persevere, but the former will not be able to do physical therapy and will need to take painkillers.

No one can stick with it.

"But three months is too short, isn't it?"

Anna leaned closer and asked.

"It's quite extreme. We can perform minimally invasive surgery, arthroscopic removal of calcifications, and removal of loose bone fragments. He should be able to recover to the intensity of playing matches three months after the surgery."

Lin Mu casually placed the pen on the table, "Although high-intensity sprints and changes of direction still cause pain."

Anna looked at the paper.

The surgery was performed in mid-March, the swelling subsided in ten days, and it took a month and a half for a mild recovery. Three months later, the team was able to participate in sparring and joint training.

This means that Ronaldo can go to the World Cup with a relatively healthy body.

"I can perform the surgery here, and the recovery period is within three months."

77

Lin Mu said to the person on the other end of the phone.

Unlike Torelli's questioning, no one raised any objections this time.

As orthopedic surgeons, they know the value of "Wood" and are even more aware of Wood's expertise in the field of knee joint surgery, especially in double-bundle reconstruction and meniscus repair.

Lin Mu mastered both of these difficult techniques with ease.

Not to mention cleaning up the calcification.

In their view, this minimally invasive surgery is not difficult, but it is difficult to clean it completely.

In addition, Ronaldo has suffered too many old knee injuries.

Slight carelessness could lead to complications.

The risk is too great.

"OK!

The meeting ended quickly.

As for the tear of the primary fiber of the soleus muscle, it was not considered a problem by most people.

Lin Mu was just about to leave.

Sadrick approached him, his tone slightly ingratiating, "Wood, have you written down that theory you just proposed? Which journal are you planning to submit it to?"

"Thyroid function test under exercise load?"

Lin Mu countered with a question.

"Yes!" Sadrick nodded.

"I haven't thought about it."

Lin Mu's words struck Sadrick like a thunderbolt.

Could such a brilliant idea have come up on a whim?

He was able to understand his neurosurgery colleagues.

"If you'd like, I can take a look for you. It's not about adding any name, it's just that I think this idea needs to be known by more people."

Sadrick pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Roberto Mochini walked over. "You old bastard, you want to steal my student's research results, don't you?"
