  • The Canon of Medicine (c. 1000) - Described by Sir William Osler as a "medical bible" and "the most famous medical textbook ever written".[19] The Canon of Medicine introduced the concept of a syndrome as an aid to diagnosis, and it laid out an essential framework for a clinical trial.[20] It was translated into Latin by Gerard de Sabloneta and it was used extensively in European medical schools.[20][21] It also became the most authoritative text on anatomy until the 16th century.[22]
  • Commentary on Anatomy in Avicenna's Canon (c. 1200): First description of the pulmonary circulation system,[23] and the first description of the presence and function of coronary circulation.[24]

Over thousands of years traditional Chinese medicine has developed a theoretical and practical approach to the treatment and prevention of disease. The first documented sources of Chinese medical theory, the Huangdi Nei Jing ("Inner Classic of the Yellow Emperor") was written between 300 BC and 100 BC. It describes the diagnosis and treatment of a huge range of disorders and gives advice about healthy lifestyles, exercise, and diet which conforms remarkably well with current recommendations for the prevention of chronic disease. There is also accurate dietary advice about how to avoid micronutrient deficiency diseases such as beri-beri, xerophthalmia, and goitre.
