Network of basic Chinese herbs used in the treatment of RA and CHD. This network is constructed with data set downloaded from SinoMed on Aug. 24, 2010. First, a list of Chinese herbs pairs is built under the condition that any two nodes connected with each other by an edge are DescriptorName pairs on co-occurrent frequency. Then, supervised by TCM professionals, four basic Chinese herbs are selected out.
