Food was believed to have some medicinal properties apart from its everyday sustenance in Japan in the Edo period (1603-1867). The dietetic materia medica then became a knowledge system in Japan with reference of the knowledge system of traditional Chinese materia medica, following some related books published.Dietetic Materia Medica (Yue Fu Shi Wu Ben Cao) was written by Nagoya Genyi as the pioneer work on dietetic materia medica in the Edo period. The book was divided into two volumes. The first one involved a total of 290 types of dietetic materia medica and 167 types of botanical medicines (grains, vegetables, aquatic plants, fungi, fruits, and herbs). The second volume included 123 types of animal medicines (fish,meso, poultry and animal sections). Its author, Nagoya Genyi, was the first doctor to link food with clinical treatment in Japan. He mainly focused on disease treatment in terms of specific classification and exposition. In this sense, the book was characteristic of materia medica rather than its museum properties. The content of the book showed the writing style and the medical tendency of the early food materia medica in the Edo period. Researching this book can help in understanding the compilation of dietetic materia medica represented by physicians in this period in Japan.

The Treatise on Febrile Diseases (Shang Han Lun) inscripted and published by Zhao Kaimei in the Ming Dynasty was believed to be reprinted from the version of the Northern Song Dynasty, based on its official dispatch, at the beginning of the book, in the third year of the Yuanyou Period of the Northern Song Dynasty. However, the authenticity of the official dispatch remained controversial among scholars of medical history and literature. This paper reports on an investigation of the formation process of the official dispatch, classifies the titles recorded after the inscription, makes comparisons with the medical books inscripted in the same period, and analyzes the causes of the official dispatch and the title in Treatise on Febrile Diseases inscripted by Zhao Kaimei. It was found that the inscription, the official dispatch and the titles were authentic and that the position of the official dispatch was moved from the end of the book to the beginning of the book.

The name of the Chinese medicinal plant peony (Mu Dan) was discussed widely in many studies, but has not been fully substantiated to date. This paper examined the history of the tree peony in China and reviewing early relevant medical literature by drawing on the results of historical studies, early literacy works and the cultivation time of ornamental peonies. The paper found that the Chinese plant named Mu Dan was normally referred to as the Ardisia species before the early Tang Dynasty. The plant names and physical items in terms of medicinal materials were not equivalent but one-to-many in most cases. This research attempts to provide a basis for further research.

Medical History in the Past and Present (Gu Jin Yi Shi), written by Wang Honghan, has been valued by historians since its discovery. Its publication was linked to Zhu Kerou but the relationship between the book and Zhu had been unclear for a long time. This paper examined medical books, medical notes, letters and local chronicles and other related materials. It was found that Zhu Kerou, also named Wengang and Yanyu, lived in Wu County, Jiangsu. He had studied under Miao Zunyi, a well-known doctor at that time, as his medical teacher for more than ten years. However, he did not maintain medicine as his career, but made a living with arts. He wrote Notes of Orchid (Di Yi Xiang Bi Ji) and had it published, collated and edited as part of the first seven volumes of Medical History in the Past and Present (Gu Jin Yi Shi). He also contributed to two additional volumes of this book.

Fermented mustard brine was a unique liquid fermented with mustard long used in traditional Chinese medicine. It was previously known as Ji Shui, which refered to the yellow salty water after vegetables were fermented. Fermented mustard brine was not established in TCM until the Ming Dynasty. It was found that the original plant of ancient mustard was Brassica juncea (L.) Czern et Coss. var. juncea, and the origin of the mustard used in mustard brine mainly refereed to the cultivated species of Brassica (Brassica juncea var. multiceps Tsen et Lee) in the Brassica branch of the Cruciferae family, which belonged to the mustard leaf class in tillering mustard. Fermented mustard brine tasted spicy and salty and was considered as a feature of cold, and went to the lung meridian. Its effects were of clearing heat and reducing phlegm, calming coughing and expelling pus. It was mainly used for the treatment of lung carbuncle, and also for diseases such as lung impotence, laryngeal tinea, wheezing, coughing, vomiting pus and blood, and facial swelling. The ways to use it involved taking it directly (or taking it warm), taking it with hot soybean milk, having it with food, mixing it with decoction, and mixing it with houttuynia cordata juice. It was mainly produced in the Jiaxing area of Zhejiang province, especially famous for the collection by the Tianning Temple in Tianning in Jiashan, not the Tianning Temple in Changzhou.

The original version and title of Zhong Jing Quan Shu referred to the collection of four books - Shang Han Lun, Zhu Jie Shang Han Lun, Shang Han Lei Zheng and Jin Gui Yao Lue Fang Lun, published by Zhao Kaimei in the Ming Dynasty. Then, Zhang Qingzi Shang Han Lun was written by Zhang Qingzi. After that, a Japanese scholar compiled a new collection based on Zhong Jing Quan Shu held in the Cabinet Library in Japan consisting of three books - Shang Han Lei Zheng, JinGui Yao Lue Fang Lun and Zhang Qingzi Shang Han Lun. The preface and content in this collection was adjusted for some practical purposes and was published in the second year of Manji in Japan (1659). This book, Zhang Qingzi Shang Han Lun was based on Shang Han Lun from the early and mid-Edo period of Japan. It was then returned to China in the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. It was soon republished by Deng in Chengdu, with Yun Qi Zhang Jue Lu and Shang Han Ming Li Lun, added as a collection of five books with the same name Zhang Zi Qing Shang Han Lun, being popular in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. This book was understood to be from Zhong Jing Quan Shu published by Zhao Kaimei during this period. These two books were distinguished from each other when Shang Han Lun published in the Song Dynasty, drew people's attention. However, Zhang Qingzi Shang Han Lun was still believed valuable for both clinical and literature studies.

In the period of the Republic of China, the maternal and infant mortality rates were high, most of which were caused by puerperal fever and neonatal tetanus. In this sense, Chinese traditional midwives were often regarded as "dirty". After western obstetrics was introduced into China in the late Qing Dynasty and the early period of the Republic of China,the occurrence of postpartum infection was effectively reduced with childbirth disinfection. To improve the health status of women and infants, the government of the Republic of China put in place measures to develop midwifery. The training of the traditional midwives was included in midwifery education. The delivery basket was used to help promote the new method of delivery and popularise the concept of sterilization of delivery. Thus, midwifery was remodeled and the remodeled midwives played an important role in family midwifery education.
