Abstract:

Clinical research methods have been rapidly developing,and the design of clinical trials including traditional Chinese medicine is advancing.To a certain extent,all of these ensure that the results of clinical research are objective and scientific,but whether these results and the resulting guidelines or consensus have much practical significance on clinical practice is still controversial.The authors engage in both clinical practice and clinical research;they strongly feel that it is necessary to discuss the relationship between clinical trials and clinical practice.This essay discusses this relationship in four parts.
