Discussion on several statistical problems in establishing quality standards of standard decoctions.

ABSTRACT: Since 2016, a number of studies have been published on standard decoctions used in Chinese medicine. However, there is little research on statistical issues related to establishing the quality standards for standard decoctions. In view of the currently established quality standard methods for standard decoctions, an improvement scheme is proposed from a statistical perspective. This review explores the requirements for dry matter yield rate data and index component transfer data for the application of two methods specified in "Technical Requirements for Quality Control and Standard Establishment of Chinese Medicine Formula Granules," which include the average value plus or minus three times the standard deviation ( X-±3SD ) or 70% to 130% of the average value ( X-±30%X- ).
