Abstract：Objective To analyze the characteristics of the terminology of clinical practice guidelines and learn the expression of terminology of guidelines,to provide some reference for the research and construction of the guidelines ontology.Methods UMLS,SNOMED-CT,MeSH,OBI,schema.org,CMeSH,TCM clinical terminology,and TCMLS were systematically searched to identify and extract the terms of the guidelines and analyze the classification structure and mapping relationship of the terms of the guidelines in the ontology.Results The terms"guideline","level of evidence"and"recommendation"were retrieved,and the hierarchical relationship,conceptual representation,and mapping relationship between the terms were analyzed.Conclusion The relevant terms of the guidelines still need to be further improved.Standardized terminology of the guidelines can eliminate the uncertainty of concepts,facilitate the development of the guidelines,and promote the sharing and utilization of guidelines'evidence and recommendations among different countries and regions.
