International Pancreatic Fistula Study Group?
Chen Cang’s mind conjured up the image of this organization.
There are all sorts of specialized bodies internationally, and such a group specifically created due to the complication of pancreatic fistula does highlight the level of concern for the disease.
In fact, there still isn’t a standardized method for pancreatic anastomosis after resection, and the existence of pancreatic fistula truly poses a threat to everyone’s health.
Thus, it was that some of the leading figures in pancreatic surgery worldwide combined efforts to establish the International Pancreatic Fistula Study Group.
The purpose of this organization was to ensure that pancreatic surgeons worldwide could use observable indicators and a unified terminology for communication. Unfortunately, any organization tends to go astray over time.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Cang started reading the article.
It was not so much a systematic article as it was a report resembling a commentary.
“Over the past 20 years, thanks to our efforts, the mortality rate for pancreaticoduodenectomy has fallen to below 5%, but the occurrence of complications is still high. Failure of pancreatic anastomosis, especially the incidence of pancreatic fistula, remains the most critical complication and influencing factor!”
“Standardized techniques and international criteria can help reduce complications and mortality rates, and also facilitate communication and exchange among us,”
“However, in the current Chinese pancreatic disease training program, there is a lack of consensus on industry standards, as well as a lack of clinical basis and evidence-based medicine data to support the establishment of standardized guidelines, making it impossible to enter the certification system of our group.”
There were some more specific details following that.
After reading it, Chen Cang couldn’t help but laugh.
This International Pancreatic Fistula Study Group really was something, presenting a long-winded academic jargon that seemed so profound.
But to put it plainly, it was because Chen Cang’s proposed concepts had started raising concerns for them.
Firstly, Chen Cang hadn’t adhered to the standardization set by the International Pancreatic Fistula Study Group, as they were primarily promoting those common anastomosis techniques, and Chen Cang simply bypassed these methods, embarrassing these academic standard-setters.
Secondly, there was the infringement on their interests.
The funding sources for the International Pancreatic Fistula Study Group included dedicated funds from the World Health Organization and domestic and international charitable funds. Of course, such international academic organizations are very good at siphoning money, especially from pharmaceutical companies!
This was a huge piece of the pie!
After Chen Cang’s method emerged, they saw a potential competitor.
How could they not rush to make a statement?
This was like Chen Cang stepping forward to bypass their standards, and then publicly concluding that his method was better than theirs.
This would undoubtedly make them lose face.
Of course, there was another reason, which was to squeeze the easy targets.
If the Mayo Medical Center suddenly stood up to make this statement, it would surely cause a sensation.
According to the latest world rankings in medical research and clinical work:
The Mayo Medical Center scored an impressive 97.31 in the global research index for general surgery, and their clinical index also reached 90.12.
Meanwhile, the research index for the top tier Chinese hospitals, including Xiehe, was merely 12.11.
This gap was almost ninefold.
This rating was the result of third-party statistical organizations and was quite objective data.
Having read through this, Chen Cang leaned against the headboard, stroked Qin Yue’s hair, and started to think of a strategy.
What should he do at this time?
“Hey, stop touching my hair! It’s falling out, and you’re still messing with it,” Qin Yue complained, and casually pulled Chen Cang’s hand into her arms to keep him still.
Then, Qin Yue asked, “Was that Austar just now? What did he say?”
Chen Cang smiled, “The International Pancreatic Fistula Study Group is picking holes, saying we haven’t followed their standards and that we’re not scientific enough.”
“If you were me, what would you do?”
Qin Yue couldn’t help but laugh,
“If I were you, right now, I’d be sleeping with the beauty beside me! I wouldn’t think about these troublesome matters. Life is short, the dawn comes early, and from now on, the emperor ignores his morning court.”
Qin Yue playfully teased Chen Cang with a seductive voice, cracking a joke.
Jokes aside, after saying this, Qin Yue also sat up, leaned against the headboard, and after thinking for a while, finally said,
“If I were you, I’d do a few things.”
“First off, we were using their guidelines before, weren’t we? We’ll just do this surgery to the utmost perfection, even better than the leading academic figures in their research group!”
“Next, we prove the deficiencies and flaws of this surgery!”
“And lastly, we defeat them completely with our new surgical approach!”
“How cool is that! We beat them at their own game, and then we innovate on top of that!”
…
…
The next day, right after Chen Cang had finished his shift and was preparing to start work, He Zhiqian from General Surgery rushed over.
“Dr. Chen, come, I have something to tell you.”
Seeing this, Chen Cang nodded and followed him out, “What’s going on?”
He Zhiqian spoke directly, “The Secretary-General of the International Pancreatic Fistula Study Group has come to the hospital and wants to meet with you. I told them you were in surgery.”
After hearing this, Chen Cang was momentarily stunned, “Well, that’s impressive, sending a Secretary-General to take notice!”
These research groups and councils are more or less the same.
The biggest one is the President, followed by the Secretary-General, then the Vice-President, followed by the Executive Directors, and lastly, the ordinary Directors.
Chen Cang actually anticipated that they might come.
Being this eager to prepare defenses certainly indicated how much they regarded him.
After all, the day before yesterday’s surgery had already been appraised by the International Pancreatic Fistula Study Group, it was nothing but worry.
He Zhiqian also spoke somewhat indignantly, “These people really are something, they just named us yesterday, and today they’re here to see us!”
“What’s the deal? Hit us with a stick and then expect us to be happy with a sweet afterward? Dream on!”
He Zhiqian was actually a Director in this International Pancreatic Fistula Study Group.
It was an international organization, with many countries participating.
“Dr. Chen, are you going to see them or not? If not, I’ll just send them away.”
Chen Cang laughed, “You’re not afraid the Secretary-General will make things difficult for you?”
He Zhiqian snorted, “It’s just an academic organization, what can they do? Do they really think joining it raises your academic status?”
“I see it very clearly now, self-reliance is the key. Otherwise, joining any number of organizations is useless!”
“Mayo isn’t even a part of this organization, and they still wouldn’t dare to underestimate them!”
Chen Cang was actually quite curious about what they wanted, “Let’s go then, let’s see. Maybe they’re here to apologize!”
