王阶

Wang Jie, about whom limited public information is available, is known to have written four medical works that concentrate on traditional Chinese medicine and on the clinical study and treatment of cardiovascular disease. His books include a biography of the national medical master Lu Zhizheng, specialized monographs such as Research on Cardiovascular Disease Syndromes and Practical Integrative Chinese and Western Medicine in the Treatment of Cardiovascular Disease, and a work on the clinical application of Panax notoginseng saponin preparations. Judging from the titles and subject categories, his writing combines accounts of physicians' lives with the organization of diagnostic and therapeutic experience in integrative Chinese and Western medicine. Aimed at clinicians and medical researchers, the works emphasize syndrome differentiation, treatment practice and drug application, and are practical rather than rhetorical in style. They offer useful reference material for integrative research on cardiovascular disease and preserve the life and scholarship of a leading contemporary Chinese physician.
