Chapter 457: High-Quality Articles Need Not Wait (Seeking Subscriptions)

"Left, retractor. Pay attention to exposure." Fang Ziye's calm, gentle yet decisive voice echoed through the operating room.

The circulating nurse was already accustomed to such a rhythm; at this moment she sat beneath the surgical timer panel playing with her mobile phone.

To her left was a steel tray, on which a pile of consumables had already been clearly laid out, arranged in order, ready to be handed to the operating table at any time.

The instrument nurse also sat on the instrument cart on the operating table, arranging the surgical instruments in order, with the instruments that needed to be repeatedly moved up and down the operating table placed very professionally in the upper left corner.

Before the anesthesia machine, Luo Tingzhu held a notebook while asking Professor Zeng Quanming some questions. Her voice was very soft, but the content of her questions had all been carefully prepared, not the kind of low-intelligence questions.

Instead, Professor Zeng Quanming's answers were sometimes hesitant and evasive.

By Luo Tingzhu's current level, not every doubt in her heart could be resolved by asking a teacher; more often, she needed to find suitable answers herself.

Liu Huanglong entered the operating room, drawing only sidelong glances from the circulating nurse, the instrument nurse, and Luo Tingzhu, among others; the four people on the operating table were all simply focused on the surgery.

After completing a small stage of a small operation, a few people finally turned their heads, each calling out "Professor Liu" and "Teacher Liu" in turn.

"You continue the surgery; I'll observe from the side." Liu Huanglong wore only a surgical gown and did not rush to scrub in and go on stage.

As someone who had once led a group, Liu Huanglong cared more about the operating mode of this small team of Fang Ziye and Yuan Weihong.

Hearing this, Fang Ziye said: "Tian Luo, you continue debridement from your direction; in muscle debridement, it differs from debridement of damaged tendons."

"The activity of tendon tissue within the body differs from muscle; it does not require too much blood supply, so during debridement, we should preserve as much as possible."

"Muscle tissue must have blood supply and energy; tendons are merely connecting devices, while muscles are the source of power; the origin and insertion of muscles mostly rely on tendons to complete contraction!"

Hearing this, Lan Tianluo nodded slightly, took the round knife from Fang Ziye's hand, and began local debridement carefully; his operation was somewhat restrained, not as expansive as Fang Ziye's.

Nevertheless, even so, in Liu Huanglong's view, that Lan Tianluo's debridement technique could reach its current realm still made him feel incredible.

The coordination within the small sect led by Yuan Weihong was indeed beyond what ordinary people could achieve.

……

Liu Huanglong walked slowly around the operating table twice, striving to see the details of the operation and each person's coordination rhythm from every angle, then slowly walked out of the operating room.

Standing before the hand washing station, Liu Huanglong washed and disinfected his hands while looking at himself in the mirror—

To be honest, Liu Huanglong felt some regret.

Although Fang Ziye's teaching ability was plain, without much technique, it won in being untiring and having very deep knowledge reserves; he himself was currently an authority on mangled extremity.

Working behind closed doors leads only to a dead end.

For a long time, Liu Huanglong had thought that after understanding Fang Ziye's understanding principles of mangled extremity, through his own knowledge and his own cunning, he could integrate and master it, and even make a breakthrough.

This was Liu Huanglong's confidence in his own qualification; many previous surgical techniques, after Liu Huanglong came into contact with them, would achieve a certain level of proficiency within a period of time.

Liu Huanglong thought that as long as he did not compare himself with Fang Ziye, even if he let go of all defenses and let go of the knot of comparison with Fang Ziye, he would still be Liu Huanglong.

Even if Lan Tianluo and Yuan Weihong and others had Fang Ziye's teaching and guidance, he could still pull away from Yuan Weihong and others through his own talent.

Nevertheless, at this moment, Liu Huanglong felt he was wrong to a somewhat outrageous degree.

A famous teacher's guidance and one's own qualification are both indispensable.

Lan Tianluo and Yuan Weihong were not ordinary people; they were not something he could casually cast aside just by spending time immersing himself.

Liu Huanglong had just looked around; under Fang Ziye's guidance, Yuan Weihong's level was gradually approaching his own.

Liu Huanglong knew that a few days ago, Yuan Weihong's proficiency was still slightly behind his own.

Lan Tianluo was far from comparable to himself; his accumulation was too shallow. Considering the time Lan Tianluo had been exposed to clinical practice, no matter how extraordinary he was, his basic skills still needed years of accumulation.

"It seems that the outer garment I need to take off is not only the comparison with Fang Ziye, but also arrogance. Be humble in seeking advice and modest in self-examination."

"Now everything is still in time; seek advice more, communicate more. Making differentiation into self-differentiation is also not conducive to team growth."

"Correcting a mistake is a great goodness." Liu Huanglong murmured in a low voice.

After this bit of self-comfort, the corners of Liu Huanglong's mouth curved slightly into a subtle arc, but this arc could not be seen by others, nor by the mirror, nor by Liu Huanglong himself.

But Liu Huanglong himself could feel it.

After Liu Huanglong quickly put on the sterile surgical gown and sterile surgical gloves and went on stage, he actively requested: "Weihong, can we temporarily switch positions? I want to say a few words to Ziye."

Liu Huanglong's courteous voice made it hard to refuse.

One does not strike a smiling face; moreover, Liu Huanglong was still the team leader on the surface. Yuan Weihong immediately let Liu Huanglong take the first assistant position back-to-back with him, standing diagonally opposite Fang Ziye.

Yan Zhiming was squeezed to an even more corner position.

Fang Ziye and Lan Tianluo only began to coordinate and proceed with further operations after Liu Huanglong stood firm.

After hearing Fang Ziye say a few words, Liu Huanglong then spoke: "Ziye, when you conduct teaching on the operating table in the future, you can prepare the teaching plan in advance."

"Teaching is different for every person. If giving a large class to undergraduates or master's students, a one-size-fits-all approach is not blameworthy."

"But here is the operating table; you can treat the operating table as a private tutorial in a small setting; there are only so many people on the operating table."

"For example, Tian Luo is obviously more inclined toward data. At this time, you can guide him toward the way he is better at for explanation and interpretation."

"For example, when you guide Lan Tianluo in debridement technique, you can add some simple mathematical terms, such as one-half, or precise to how many centimeters."

"The basic operation of debridement is cut, split, and oblique. These operations actually have certain angle ranges; if you can roughly summarize these angle ranges in detail, Tian Luo will receive stronger feedback!"

"I privately inquired among the people in the department about Tian Luo's operational progress and found that in the skill training room, whenever there are operational ladders with relatively objective standards, he can climb them very quickly."

"As for your teacher Yuan Weihong, he is more sensitive to anatomical positions and anatomical structures; don't say here, there, left, right."

"Use more precise descriptions: say which muscle is which muscle, tibial side, fibular side, the approximate position of which muscle, and the depth at approximately which layer."

"You must trust your teacher's basic skills; after you tell him these things, he can very precisely locate the content you express."

"Another example is Yan Zhiming."

"If I haven't guessed wrong, what Yan Zhiming is currently more sensitive to is charts. The reason I have this guess is that Yan Zhiming often looks at surgical anatomical charts rather than textual descriptions of anatomy."

"He also took notes, translating the content of the charts into words, proving that his spatial sense is relatively strong."

"Of course, we may not have such strong three-dimensional spatial sense as him; this requires him to organize and analyze it himself……"

Hearing this, Fang Ziye found that not only was he looking at Liu Huanglong in surprise, but Lan Tianluo and Yuan Weihong were also casting similar glances.

Fang Ziye himself had never done professional teaching; his teaching was just spitting out his own things, and how much others could receive depended entirely on their own fortune.

But as the saying goes, a good teacher is the touchstone that turns iron to gold on your path ahead.

"Alright, alright, thank you, Teacher Liu." Fang Ziye nodded repeatedly.

Actually, what Liu Huanglong said wasn't difficult for Fang Ziye at all; he just needed to pay slightly more attention to the wording of his explanations in advance.

But these very wordings could give completely different understandings to different people.

Everyone has their own learning anchors and strengths.

Some people, their grades might not be good, but their spatial positioning is extremely precise, their sense of direction extremely strong; basically, any path they've walked, no matter how complex, they can memorize precisely.

And some people are extremely sensitive to numbers. Their memory might not be good, but as long as it's a historical event related to numbers, they can recite it backwards fluently.

Some people have formed a very systematic spherical system of knowledge themselves, organized very clearly; when you explain and supplement knowledge to them, they will naturally incorporate these knowledge supplements into their own spherical system, forming spherical branches, with profound memory.

And Liu Huanglong's kind of extremely precise and profound analysis of a person's strengths was what Fang Ziye paid more attention to.

Therefore, Fang Ziye paused the surgical operation and asked carefully: "Then what about Jie Han, Teacher Liu?"

"Jie Han, Jie Han is suited for self-study."

Liu Huanglong finished speaking, paused for a full ten-odd seconds, then replied: "I haven't interacted with Jie Han for long, but I also know, Jie Han's thinking is too divergent; you tell him one thing, and he will radiate that thing out in a radial pattern."

"Only by relying on himself to gradually retract it, condensing it into a single line."

"This is almost unsolvable. The more you explain to him, the more sufficient the details, the more lines he can radiate."

Yuan Weihong nodded vigorously: "That's right, Professor Liu, I've suffered from this for a long time."

"Then let him go to me?" Liu Huanglong chuckled foolishly, poaching the person.

"But I also enjoy it willingly." Yuan Weihong's pupils shrank.

Fang Ziye and the others, not a single one of them would he let go. Isn't this gouging out the heart?

Sending Fang Ziye to Deng Yong to read for a doctorate was because Yuan Weihong really had no other way. Being able to take these several students, what great fortune is this?

Others couldn't beg for them even if they tried; Yuan Weihong would never cut off his own arm.

Jie Han was right there on the side, listening to Liu Huanglong's words, wanting to speak but stopping; then after such a cycle several times, he ultimately still spoke out: "Teacher Liu, do you think it's possible that this way might be a bit better?"

"Choose a learning plan more suitable for yourself, organize a way you're most adept at understanding, and hand it to Senior Brother."

"After we build the framework of the problem, Senior Brother can fill in the framework and the details under the framework; if Senior Brother Fang Ziye lays out the framework and details completely in exhaustive detail, wouldn't that be even more of a waste of time?"

This is something Jie Han often does; his own doubts, he picks them out himself!

Then asks them in a concentrated manner; this can save a lot of time, and also reduce Senior Brother's and teachers' anger.

After all, concentrated speechlessness and anger, compared to scattered speechlessness and anger, are easier for the angry person to accept.

"This works too."

"This might be better, because what I just explained was only my one-sided understanding; the one who understands oneself more is oneself."

"Active learning, articulate your own gaps in the way you understand most easily, leave blanks for Fang Ziye to supplement as appropriate."

"Ziye, seems I've roped you into another big job." Liu Huanglong apologized.

Fang Ziye then said: "It's fine, Teacher Liu, I think this idea is very good."

In his heart he silently recited: Boundless Heavenly Venerable; anyway, nobody knows, you all learning Mangled Extremity is actually a disguised form of 'working for me'.

Now with just Nie Mingxian and Lan Tianluo's two people 'working', Fang Ziye has benefited enormously; the rate of Knowledge Points increase has risen by at least twenty percent.

Now, less than ten-odd days have passed, and Fang Ziye's Knowledge Points have surged again to forty thousand points.

This is forty thousand points, not four thousand points, let alone four hundred points!!

Excluding weekends, Fang Ziye's daily Knowledge Points increase rate is around five thousand points.

The surgery continued; after Liu Huanglong also participated in the surgery, very obviously, the surgery's rhythm became even smoother.

The higher the assistant's capability, the more seamless the coordination with the lead surgeon.

Fang Ziye can be certain that if now, he combined with Liu Huanglong and Nie Mingxian, the three of them combined, a Mangled Extremity case could be finished in two hours to over three hours.

Even a Functional Reconstruction surgery could have its time controlled within five hours.

Compared to May, where a Functional Reconstruction surgery took six to seven hours or even over ten hours, this saved too much time.

This is the surging explosive power after both the lead surgeon's and assistant's capabilities have improved.

……

Afternoon, four-thirty.

Today's two Functional Reconstruction surgeries both reached a conclusion.

After Lan Tianluo, as the bed-management doctor, sent the patients back to the ward, Liu Huanglong led the remaining crowd toward the changing room.

While putting on his watch, Liu Huanglong said: "Four-thirty."

"Strictly keeping each day's work hours controlled around eight hours, this kind of rhythm is very good, balancing work and rest."

"In this kind of state, there's temporarily no need to add another case."

"Surgery prioritizes quality; there's no need to demand quantity."

"Weihong, do you have arrangements today? If not, let's go eat together?"

"This month, everyone has worked hard."

Yuan Weihong heard this, thought for a moment, and said: "Then thank you, Professor Liu; I'll send a message home."

In July, the department's team reorganized. Up to now, everyone's coordination is still considered tacit, the atmosphere also considered gradually improving.

Balancing work and rest, tired for nearly half a month, a small group internal gathering is also a normal thing.

"Then I'll book the spot; you little brats, does anyone have a prior date arranged? If so, say so in advance; if not, I'll assume you're all free in the evening." Liu Huanglong asked Fang Ziye's group.

Friday, the weekend is approaching.

The weekend is a good season for dates.

Fang Ziye saw Liu Huanglong's gaze stab toward himself, and smiled asking: "Teacher Liu, do you mind adding one more person?"

Strictly speaking, Luo Tingzhu doesn't quite count as an outsider.

Originally, as the only female graduate student in Trauma Surgery (doctorates are also graduate students), Luo Tingzhu was the department's 'group pet'; at least everyone was still quite kind to her.

"Rest assured, I'll call Ceng Zhuren from Anesthesiology and his student Xiao Luo the Anesthesiologist myself. Anyone else you want to invite?" Liu Huanglong gave Fang Ziye a wicked smile.

It was obviously hinting at whether Fang Ziye wanted to openly stage a scumbag's asura field.

Fang Ziye twisted his scapula while going downstairs: "Teacher Liu, then call Senior Brother Li too? Brother Pei currently manages the group internal affairs in an orderly manner, it's also quite hard work."

This time Fang Ziye returned to the department, he truly discovered he was very relaxed.

Li Yuanpei was too powerful; Fang Ziye only needed to run flat consultations, occasionally go to the training room, and sign discharge medical records.

Even the assignment work of intern doctors no longer needed Fang Ziye to do it.

Fang Ziye had proposed giving Li Yuanpei some money, but Li Yuanpei was also embarrassed to accept, so Fang Ziye was also embarrassed to force it and insult him — making it seem like Li Yuanpei was his hired assistant.

"Good, you call the people up." Liu Huanglong said while editing a message.

While speaking, the group arrived at the wardrobe in the changing room, and Fang Ziye began taking off his clothes and putting on his own casual clothes.

Jie Han suddenly spoke: "Master, Master! ~ Teacher Liu, there's a reply."

Yuan Weihong was also taking off his scrub suit, heard the words and was startled, pulled on the neck under his chin, almost got sent away on the spot.

The blue scrub suit was pinched in Yuan Weihong's hand, looking at Jie Han.

But after Jie Han stretched his phone screen in front of Yuan Weihong, he smiled: "Master, first review directly to acceptance. And the editorial department also has subsequent commissioned manuscripts, you and Teacher Liu go back?"

Fang Ziye heard this, took off his clothes, and also stretched his head to look at Jie Han's phone screen — read through it once, summarized as follows.

Jie Han's mangled extremity limb salvage surgery article submitted to JAMA main journal has been accepted, the editorial department sent a message to congratulate.

At the same time, the editorial department also enthusiastically invited, hoping to name the specialty surgical technique, and hoping subsequent research achievements can continue to be submitted to JAMA.

JAMA can even reserve manuscripts in the form of commissioned manuscripts, as long as the manuscript is sent over, it will be reviewed at the first time and arranged for publication as soon as possible.

Worldwide, patients amputated due to mangled extremities number in the millions.

This is a very huge trauma damage data, currently the whole world has no better solution, and it is also a future popular development direction.

Even though JAMA journal's prestige is very impressive, but encountering such a manuscript, it certainly won't let it go.

Technology must develop right? Automobile and other industries must also continue to progress right?

With the development of cities, more and more high-energy damages are increasing, the incidence of mangled extremities will only increase and not decrease.

Under such circumstances, such an article will definitely be an article that improves JAMA's impact factor!

Yes, the journal's impact factor can be improved.

Impact factor = total number of articles cited in the current year / total number of articles published in the previous two years.

Generally JAMA main journal's annual total number of articles is fixed, if an article's citation count is very high, that is high quality literature, it will certainly be able to improve the journal's impact factor.

This mangled extremity maternal-fetal article, the citation volume will definitely explode.

Naturally, it could also be submitted to Nature journal, but reaching JAMA and Nature such level, which journal is no longer important.

Because a single article's impact factor can also be improved.

If your citation volume explodes, actually this impact factor thing is no longer that important, instead your team and author's name becomes a benchmark.

Yuan Weihong instantly also didn't pursue accountability for Jie Han almost scaring him into being strangled.

How does a saying go?

If you can publish JAMA such journal during master's period, or say, don't need JAMA, as long as BMJ, you can all shout "Xiao Yuan, pour me a cup of tea".

This is of course exaggeration, but actually has a certain degree of truth.

The corresponding authors are Fang Ziye, Liu Huanglong, and Deng Yong three people as co-corresponding authors.

Liu Huanglong read it and also said: "Ziye, this matter you just handle it, whether to continue submitting to JAMA later, you choose yourself."

"Be slightly more polite, play hard to get is best, don't refuse too directly, but also don't agree, otherwise foreigners will think you agreed."

Liu Huanglong feared Fang Ziye had no corresponding author experience, so he guided him.

Fang Ziye looked at Yuan Weihong, Yuan Weihong also said: "You learn to handle it yourself, in the future you'll also bring students, you have to start contacting the editorial department yourself sooner or later."

"You still count on your master to help you for a lifetime?"

Fang Ziye hehe laughed: "Master you definitely will."

"Then should celebrate properly, have some alcohol tonight. Yuan Weihong, no problem?"

"Now there are many people on duty in the department, basically all emergency surgeries, Ziye and them can handle, what they can't handle, we these people are also old." Liu Huanglong proposed again.

"Yeah, old. Do a little then do a little." Yuan Weihong is the biggest winner, where would he have any disagreement?

However, although Liu Huanglong and Yuan Weihong's tones had a kind of enjoying old age frustration, in Fang Ziye and the others' eyes, it appeared Zhen Jier individual strange.

Liu Huanglong is thirty-eight this year, Yuan Weihong thirty-seven.

Medical specialty!

Old!

This age and old completely don't connect.

Many people, in the clinical medicine field, are just starting to exert force, still far from golden period and peak period, still in rapid rising period.

But, if Master is willing, he's happy then it's good.

A group of people teamed up and rushed to the eating place.

Liu Huanglong drove alone, leaving space for Yuan Weihong and them.

Yuan Weihong directly used the electric scooter to carry Fang Ziye away, performing the three words "snob" to the fullest...

Lan Tianluo and Jie Han and others in the rearview mirror touched their noses while hailing a taxi.
