金匱要略

Jīnguì yàolüè
Essential Prescriptions of the Golden Casket

The miscellaneous-disease half of Zhang Zhongjing's work, recovered in the Song.

The Jingui Yaolüe is what survived of the Shanghan Zabing Lun once the cold-damage half had been extracted: chronic and miscellaneous conditions, arranged by disease rather than by conformation.
