T/CACM 1335.2-2020 Standardized Operational Procedures for Whole-Evidence Research in Traditional Chinese Medicine Part 2: Review of Ancient Text Evidence
Basic Information
Scope
Main technical content: This section innovatively establishes a diagnosis similarity evaluation system for ancient and modern disease names, including traditional Chinese medicine disease names, related symptoms and signs, and disease history characteristics. In view of the diagnostic characteristics of Western medicine diseases, we formulate the diagnostic or evaluation points of ancient disease names or syndromes corresponding to modern diseases. We systematically retrieved, sorted out, and evaluated the content related to the studied diseases in more than 1,000 ancient books recorded in the "Chinese Medical Encyclopedia". We comprehensively summarized the evolution of disease naming, the understanding of etiology and pathogenesis, and the clinical treatment rules (common prescriptions, traditional Chinese medicine, and acupuncture points), etc. The systematic sorting out of ancient book evidence will provide a more comprehensive reference for modern TCM clinical practice and provide direction for clinical and experimental research. 1.
