Chapter 803: with translation of chapter title

Chinese present: yes.

yes.

yes.

Thus line 3: "But after Su Yun heard Zheng Ren finish speaking, they fell silent again."

yes.

yes.

yes.

Su Yun felt relieved.

Boss, as long as you don't suddenly turn into a saint with water in your head, it's fine; if it's for the Nobel Prize, you could even sacrifice some benefits.

After all, should everything give way for the Nobel Prize?

If one could actually win the award, what's money? Why bother about current small change?

Peng Jia was drenched in sweat.

He didn't know Zheng Ren and Su Yun's situation; although he could roughly guess a clue, he didn't know the specifics.

But that doesn't matter; what matters is Zheng Ren's attitude.

Things went unexpectedly smoothly, giving Peng Jia a feeling that fortune was turning.

This must be a dream...

Peng Jia also didn't dare to probe too much, lest he offend that pretty, girlish doctor and end up shooting himself in the foot.

He put forward his few requests to Zheng Ren, stating the solution he had thought of for a long time, and Zheng Ren was fairly satisfied.

On our side, we don't need to increase workload and can still do publicity. As for later matters, Zheng Ren has considered them, but only the big picture; he hasn't thought much about the details.

Overthinking is useless; just walk with head down, occasionally looking up at the road is enough.

Thinking is not as good as doing; this is Zheng Ren's consistent style.

Su Yun began to take charge, working out the details with Peng Jia in detail; it seemed Su Yun couldn't wait to livestream the next batch of TIPS Surgery patients.

While they were chatting, Zheng Ren's phone rang.

"Brother Yang, what's up?"

"Oh, I'm discussing something outside; I'll head back now."

"No need, no need; I'll go to your place."

After saying that, Zheng Ren hung up the phone and said with a smile: "Professor Yang has a patient who wants me to look at a scan; you guys keep talking."

Peng Jia: "……"

The main person isn't even here; how can we discuss this?

Zheng Ren saw his expression and comforted him: "Su Yun can make the decision; you two discuss it, let's get this started as soon as possible."

After saying that, Zheng Ren picked up his outerwear and walked out.

Seeing Zheng Ren leave, Peng Jia still felt a bit dazed.

Su Yun loudly asked: "Boss, what patient?"

"They say it's pancreatic cancer, but Professor Yang feels something's off, so he asked me to consult." Zheng Ren said, already walking away.

Peng Jia felt dazed for a moment.

The professors at 912 are unsure; they want to find Zheng Lao Ban for a definite diagnosis? This standing in the martial world is higher than I imagined.

He immediately reflected, realizing he had still underestimated Zheng Lao Ban. They are a Nobel Prize Nominee; one shouldn't be lax or neglectful just because they're young.

Peng Jia adjusted his attitude, becoming more gentle, and his conversation with Su Yun went more smoothly.

……

……

Zheng Ren left the café, hailed a car, and returned to 912.

The café isn't far from the hospital, but Zheng Ren still took a car to save time.

Dealing with Peng Jia, this kind of administrative work, Zheng Ren felt some resistance. But it's much better than when he was in Hai Cheng; before, Zheng Ren wouldn't have agreed to meet Peng Jia at all.

Returning to 912, Zheng Ren changed clothes and strides to the Gan Dan Wai Ke.

"Brother Yang, what patient?" Zheng Ren and Professor Yang were already familiar; he greeted upon entering.

The patient with hepatic hydatid disease had smoothly been transferred out of the ICU and is now in the recovery period. This patient's surgery quickly brought Zheng Ren and the General Surgery Department closer.

High skill, good temper, honest person—Professor Yang greatly appreciates Zheng Ren, so whenever he has an uncertain diagnosis, he calls on Zheng Ren to take a look.

Such patients are few, only a few every three to five days.

Zheng Ren also gradually adapted to the work environment and pace at 912, and things began to go smoothly.

"The hospital's diagnosis below is pancreatic cancer with liver metastasis, but looking at the images I always feel something's off." Yang Rui waved his hand, signaling Zheng Ren to come in quickly, then he picked up the lab report and examined it.

"Hmm." Zheng Ren walked in, saw the abdominal CT placed on the viewer, with a film bag on the table before the viewer, glanced at it, and it should be a contrast-enhanced Nuclear Magnetic Resonance.

On the image, brightly visible is a space-occupying lesion in the pancreatic head, irregular in shape. Moreover, there are two space-occupying lesions in the left liver, though not large; the first impression considers pancreatic cancer with liver metastasis.

Cancer with metastasis to other organs is considered end-stage. In previous years, it was a surgical contraindication; only radiotherapy and chemotherapy could be used, aiming to maintain the patient's survival period.

In recent years, with surgical minimally invasive techniques reducing trauma, some have advocated surgical treatment. But even then, it's only a tumor-reducing surgery; postoperatively, there remains the risk of the patient's immunity dropping and the tumor tissue massively erupting and spreading.

This image reminded Zheng Ren of a case he had studied.

"Do you think it looks like Jobs' disease?" Yang Rui, looking at the upper abdomen CT, asked.

Yes, Zheng Ren thought, it was also Jobs' case.

This case was tortuous and bizarre; the entire process was never disclosed to the outside, and one can only speculate based on some known facts.

As a doctor specialized in the General Surgery Department, Zheng Ren had conducted research on this.

As early as 1987, a reporter at Jobs' press conference described his symptoms of "slightly yellowing hands that kept trembling".

But Jobs himself did not pay attention to it, or the examination failed to uncover the truth.

yes.

does NOT have quotes; it's an instruction.

Translate: "In October 2003, after experiencing chest and abdominal pain for about five years, Jobs finally went to the Hospital for consultation. The initial images were similar to this CT scan before him, indicating advanced pancreatic cancer with liver metastasis."

does NOT have quotes; it's a note.

We'll output as one line.

Because he was a Buddhist, and moreover Jobs resisted modern medicine, he initially tried to manage it through diet alone, which delayed the start of treatment.

Translate: "Because he was a Buddhist, and Jobs resisted modern medicine, he initially relied on dietary adjustments, which delayed the earliest treatment opportunity."

no quotes.

Of course, that's what the media says, but Zheng Ren doesn't see it that way.

【81】

has quotes: yes.

【87】

Translate: "After being diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer, Jobs refused Shou Bing, preparing to wait for death. Later, persuaded by doctors, he underwent a series of examinations including endoscopic biopsy."

But note: "Shou Bing" appears twice? Only once. We'll replace that.

【91】

Translate: "The diagnostic results showed that what he had was not pancreatic cancer, but a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor."

Unlike pancreatic cancer, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors can be treated with Shou Bing, and the cure rate exceeds 50%.

【94】

At the end of July 2004, Jobs underwent a surgical Shou Bing at Stanford University Medical Center. The details of the Shou Bing procedure were not disclosed publicly, and Zheng Ren speculated that it was likely a pancreaticoduodenectomy.

【100】

Thus line: "In late July 2004, Jobs accepted external surgical Shou Bing at Stanford University Medical Center. The Shou Bing procedure was not disclosed publicly; Zheng Ren guessed it should be a pancreaticoduodenectomy."

We must keep the translation of 'external surgery' as 'surgical Shou Bing'. We could also translate 'external' as 'surgical', resulting in 'surgical Shou Bing' for 'external surgery'. This is fine: we keep 'external' as 'surgical'. Surgery becomes Shou Bing. Likewise, 'surgery method' becomes 'Shou Bing method', and we translate 'method' as 'procedure', giving 'Shou Bing procedure'. We'll output natural English: 'surgical Shou Bing' and 'Shou Bing procedure'.

Thus: "In late July 2004, Jobs underwent surgical Shou Bing at Stanford University Medical Center. The Shou Bing procedure was not disclosed to the public; Zheng Ren guessed it should be a pancreaticoduodenectomy."

【105】

We need to replace the term surgery with Shou Bing. Also note that Chinese uses simplified characters, but it's the same. 'Post-op' means after the procedure. Jobs' recovery was ordinary. After all, the pancreaticoduodenectomy procedure is very traumatic to the body. Moreover, after the Shou Bing, Jobs did not recover.

【109】

But we must keep the translation of 'after the surgery' as 'after the Shou Bing'. We'll translate it as 'after the Shou Bing'.

【112】

Replace the term surgery with Shou Bing and the term hospital with Hospital. For example, the institution name translates to Methodist University Hospital.

Now line: "Five years later, the metastatic tumor in his liver enlarged, and he flew to Methodist University Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, to undergo a liver transplant Shou Bing."

We need to output lines for each of these.

Two years after the surgery, Steve Jobs passed away on October 5, 2011.
