Abstract:
The nomenclature of rheumatism is very miscellaneous and varied,seriously influencing academic intercourse and development.In order to standardize the nomenclature and classification,this article,on the basis of studying historical documents and learning from clinical achievements,closely combined clinical practice to research every disease’s name in history corresponding to every patient in clinic.After testing,verifying and comparing repeatedly,these names are now standardized into 4 classes over 60 names from 15 classes over 400 names in history.These new over 60 rheumatism names which are classified after taking view of cause,site,symptom,and characteristics of disease possess scientific and practical value.
