Abstract:
We put forward that ①Etiological factors,pathogenesis and manifestations of a disease must be carefully studied before a syndrome differentiation standard is set up;②The ratio equilibrium of disease and syndrome should be considered when grouping in the process of a study;③In the process of designing a experiment,cases with similar symptoms or contradictory symptoms to the study cases are chosen to the control group;④Similar drug or two drugs used in combination should be adopted for the control drug in case of no same kind drug avalable.
