摘要

Precision medicine (PM) refers to the tailoring of the prevention and treatment strategies to the individual characteristics of each patient. Following the vigorous advocacy of the U.S. President Obama and China's President Xi

PM has now become a hot topic of common concern worldwide. PM does not merely refer to the skill set level but rather a comprehensive medical methodology. Hence

there is PM that builds on the analytical methodology of Western medical system as well as PM that builds on Chinese medicine (CM). The differences between the two systems

fundamentally speaking

are the differences in methodology to describe the body constitution that based on reductionism and holism. Today

as science advances to complex systems

the mainstream analytical reductionism advances to the holistic synthesis era

it is imperative to introduce CM's holistic body constitution to the modern medical system in order to progress to PM. PM with its foundation on holistic body constitution

is a medical system that integrates Western medicine and CM

is the highest attainment of "PM" in the future.

Abstract

PM has now become a hot topic of common concern worldwide. PM does not merely refer to the skill set level but rather a comprehensive medical methodology. Hence

there is PM that builds on the analytical methodology of Western medical system as well as PM that builds on Chinese medicine (CM). The differences between the two systems

fundamentally speaking

are the differences in methodology to describe the body constitution that based on reductionism and holism. Today

as science advances to complex systems

the mainstream analytical reductionism advances to the holistic synthesis era

it is imperative to introduce CM's holistic body constitution to the modern medical system in order to progress to PM. PM with its foundation on holistic body constitution

is a medical system that integrates Western medicine and CM

is the highest attainment of "PM" in the future.
