During the process of its circulation, it was separated into two stems of circulated edition, the Shang Han Lun and Jin Gui Yu Han Jing, and the system of 3- yin and 3- yang, order of entries diagnosis based on differentiation of 6 channels, and polish of languages were completed during the process of its circulation. The edition collated by Lin Yi of the Song dynasty was the one circulated until today.
