Abstract:
Research on disease-syndrome combination is the main approach and method of research on integrative traditional Chinese and Western medicine. Disease-syndrome combination embodies the complementary advantages of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine. It discusses the relationship between diseases and syndromes through an interdisciplinary approach, and explores rules of disease diagnosis and treatment based on differential diagnosis. Thanks to the development of modern life science techniques, research on disease-syndrome combination has made great achievements. This article mainly introduced the application and the development prospects of new techniques, such as data mining, system biology, epigenetics, biological network and network pharmacology in the research on disease-syndrome combination in recent years, with a purpose to provide the ideas and the methods for further research and clinical application.
