          Abstract

          Enquadramento: A medicina tradicional chinesa (MTC) teve origem há mais de 2.500 anos, sendo praticada em Macau desde o século XIX. Recentemente, o Governo da Região Administrativa Especial de Macau (RAEM) criou o Centro Colaborador da Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) para a Medicina Tradicional Chinesa (Macau) e reforçou o investimento na MTC. O ensino de MTC é oferecido em instituições de ensino superior da RAEM. Contudo, ainda não existe um programa de graduação em enfermagem associada à MTC. Objetivos: Descrever o sistema de saúde e a evolução da medicina ocidental e oriental em Macau; identificar a garantia de qualidade e o desenvolvimento futuro da MTC bem como os futuros desafios e implicações para a ciência e o ensino em Macau. Principais tópicos em análise: Neste artigo são apresentadas análises descritivas com base na revisão de dados estatísticos, revisão histórica e da literatura. Conclusão: A cultura oriental e ocidental que caracteriza Macau reflete-se na expansão da MTC, o que, com a colaboração da OMS, permitirá estabelecer a ponte entre Macau e os países de língua portuguesa.

          Guidelines for randomised controlled trials investigating Chinese herbal medicine.

          ETHNOGRAPHIC RELEVANCE: Clinical trials investigating Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) have been frequently criticised for their lack of scientific rigour. As part of the GP-TCM project a team of experienced clinical researchers and CHM practitioners have developed clinical trial guidelines for CHM that combine an appreciation for traditional methods of practice with detailed and practical advice on research methodology. This paper presents an executive summary of this work. It introduces the practice of CHM and the key considerations that need to be addressed whilst researching this traditional medical system. These guidelines emphasise the importance of identifying best practice, and then developing and applying appropriate and rigorous research methodologies to investigate CHM as a whole system. It is hoped that this will encourage a thoughtful and meticulous process of investigation that will clarify the contribution that CHM can make to our future healthcare. Innovative new approaches are considered including the application of the new "omic" technologies and systems biology as a way of enhancing our understanding of traditional practice.
