Shenyang Research Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine

The Shenyang Research Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine has a limited publishing output, and publicly available information about it is likewise limited. At present, only one book from this publisher is held in the collection: Gu Fang Jin Bing (Ancient Formulas for Modern Illnesses), authored by Hu Xingyuan and Wang Guoli. This title indicates that the institute's publishing focuses on clinical traditional Chinese medicine and the application of formulas, with attention to the practical use of classical prescriptions in modern diseases, as well as on medical and health reading. Its author resources consist mainly of practitioners in clinical Chinese medicine and Chinese materia medica research. Its publishing is characterized by a grounding in the academic traditions of Chinese medicine and an orientation toward clinical diagnosis and treatment and public health needs, with an emphasis on practical experience and the use of formulas and medicinals. Owing to the limited disclosed information, the full scope of its publishing and future plans cannot be ascertained; the available materials reflect only the above-mentioned focus on Chinese medical formulas and clinical practice.
