The evaluation indexes of the symptom changes were screened and summarized.RESULTS: In total, 243 evaluation indexes for 256symptoms were summarized. Among them, common symptoms were frequency, quantity, degree,mobility, color, and correlation with fatigue.CONCLUSION: There are many aspects to evaluating the changes in a symptom. Some symptoms occur with other simultaneous symptoms. The alleviation or aggravation of simultaneous symptoms could reflect the corresponding changes in a symptom. The changes of inducing factors are important to judging changes in symptoms.展开更多
