On the morning of January 1th, Gu Jun, accompanied by Wu Shiyu and Cai Zixuan, walked into the building of the Institute of Psychology at the Headquarters Department of Medicine.

After entering this simple building, they came to a brain advanced function research laboratory on the 5th floor. Shen Court Academecian was waiting there, as well as Professor Chief-In-Charge Ma Jun and a group of researchers in the laboratory. Professor Ma is one of the best brain specialists in China, and he is also a member of Gu Jun’s treatment team.

Gu Jun’s brain is in an abnormal state, not with ordinary mental disorders, anxiety, depression, agitation, delirium, etc., and his temperament has not changed.

But when he comes into contact with “abnormalities” and “supernatural powers”-including Zug, illusions, spells, illusions, aliens, Laleille, etc., he will have headache symptoms, and exposure means including Hear what others say, think about it, get involved in action.

Hearing what others are talking about is the mildest symptom. If he just listens and does n’t think about it, his head is swollen and painful; but once he listens to his brain and thinks about it himself, the symptoms will quickly increase and his brain will be strong The pain of the crack; if you participate in person, it will be more serious.

But regardless of the severity of the symptoms, when he interrupts contact, his headache will gradually ease. Without contact, nothing happens.

On the contrary, the longer the contact time, the more the pain will increase, which can cause the symptoms of epilepsy stiffness and convulsions, and transient syncope.

3 days ago Gu Jun was just reading a GOA document sent by Master Tong in the ward. The document has not been read, and it has not been read for less than 2 pages. He twitched and fainted, which really scared the people around him. Fortunately, the medical staff was about to start first aid, and he woke up slowly.

After that, the mood of the medical staff sank again, and everyone knew that there was a big trouble.

Gu Jun also knows that he is not optimistic, just for a moment, his mental exhaustion bottomed out, he was tired and uncomfortable, and he slowed down for a day before slowing down.

The human brain is too complicated. His brain has grown over tumors, lack of oxygen, injured, and operated on. Moreover, the site of injury and bleeding is the right prefrontal lobe, and the damage of the cerebral leukoplakia is the prefrontal region. It is very difficult to say about this area.

There is evidence that his situation is similar to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and “abnormal things” are his source of stress.

Jack Wells had symptoms of PTSD that year, and some survivors of other countries in the joint force had mild PTSD symptoms.

But Gu Jun is different from them in that there is no typical clinical manifestation of PTSD, no invasive traumatic recurrence, no negative changes in cognition and mood, no excessive alertness, irritability and anger, etc. Regarding the psychological dilemma, I did not want to evade those event memories.

However, his brain showed a strong avoidance of things similar or related to stress. Once faced or exposed to related things, although there is no psychological pain, there is a strong physiological response, which is in accordance with the diagnosis of PTSD. .

For the situation of Gu Jun, the senior officials of the headquarters are very nervous, as are Tong Ye and Yao Shinian.

In personal relationships, Tong Ye wouldn’t want to see Gu Jun like this; for the sake of the overall situation, they also don’t want Gu Jun to stop contacting anomalies. In the past 2 years, Gu Jun ’s contribution and role need not be said much. If the treatment does not come back, it means that he can only recuperate for a long time or even retire …

So for the celestial bureau, for the global people, it is a huge loss.

It is for this reason that the treatment team is once again responsible for a great deal. Liu Mingfeng and other body treatment personnel have left the field, while the brain researcher such as Professor Ma Lin has taken on a heavy responsibility.

Their first task is to find out the pathological mechanism. Whether this is just Gu Jun’s psychological problem, or his brain is damaged and dysfunctional, is the cause.

Gu Jun has tried to use the old printed purification stones before, not at all measured mental erosion. He hasn’t done an S-value check yet, and Shen Court Academecian they worry that the impact of the trauma scene may cause him to fall into a coma again, which will only make the situation more difficult.

At this time, Gu Jun, Wu Shiyu and Cai Zixuan entered this laboratory, where advanced and complete equipment can do some more detailed brain examinations for him.

The laboratory is very bright and spacious, divided into an antechamber, and the antechamber is connected to several examination rooms with different equipment.

After everyone greeted each other, Professor Gu and the others took Gu Jun to the FMRI examination room. FMRI is functional magnetic resonance imaging. The device looks similar to nuclear magnetic resonance, but it does not need to inject radioactive substances during detection. The test he is going to do is BOLD-FMRI, and the blood oxygen level depends on functional magnetic resonance imaging.

“This is a functional neuroimaging examination method.” Shen Court Academecian explained to Wu Shiyu, “The examination will allow A Jun to complete the stimulation task. By measuring the signal changes of his blood oxygen level dependence, it can reflect his local brain activity. This accurate positioning can help diagnose his pathological mechanism. “

“Unintelligible.” Wu Shiyu looked through the glass window of the examination room and watched Gu Jun lie down on the FMRI machine bed. “Shen Court Academecian, can you explain briefly?”

In fact, Cai Zixuan doesn’t know much about FMRI. Modern medicine really has too many detailed fields. Those who are not specializing in neurology can’t even hear about them.

He still accompanied his old friends to check because of the holiday today, and he also wanted to learn and read some documents to understand.

“That is to say.” Shen Court Academecian thought about it and preached in plain language: “If the brain activity of which brain area in the brain is enhanced, blood flow will increase, and more oxygen molecules will be taken than active neurons. Actual oxygen consumption, so the increase in blood flow caused by nerve activity will increase the blood oxygen content of the corresponding brain area, which is the BOLD signal. This can help us find out where the nerve activity of the brain has increased when he is stressed. “

After listening to Shen Court Academecian, Wu Shiyu nodded: “Oh okay, I still don’t understand.”

“It’s …” Shen Court Academecian felt it necessary to repeat it from the beginning. “The BOLD signal is the difference in the degree of neuronal activity affecting local oxygen consumption and cerebral blood flow, which changes the relative content of local deoxyhemoglobin, thus Causing the local magnetic field to change … “

“Shen Court Academecian, the more I listened to you, the more confused I was.” Wu Shiyu raised his hand and interrupted. “I’ll talk about my understanding first. Xian Jun did this check. It was in the brain when he took the stress. Excited, find this position and judge what is wrong with him. “

Cai Zixuan thinks she understood correctly, this remark made it very clear.

“It’s almost like this.” Shen Court Academecian said, “but the brain is very complicated …”

Wu Shiyu listened and thought, because the brain is so complicated, she can only understand this level.

At the same time, the equipment in the examination room started to run, and the examination bed carrying Gu Jun was moved towards the ring magnet in the murmur.
