摘要
Promoting the international acceptance of clinical studies about traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)interventions is a key strategy for internationalization of TCM.However,the complexities of TCM interventions—in terms of the theories,practice patterns,and components—pose challenges to the design and implementation of clinical studies that are well accepted by the international community.This article summarized the current status of clinical studies about TCM interventions that were published in international journals,explored underlying barriers hindering the international acceptance,and discussed potential strategies for future development.
