The numbering of the abstracts follows their order in Dunhuang yiyao wenxian jijiao 敦煌醫藥文獻輯校 (The Dunhuang medical texts edited and collated). In the course of field work for this project Wang Shumin was able to identify several fragments as belonging to a single manuscript. These have been conflated in the following abstracts, creating gaps in the original numbering. For the readers' convenience we have cross-referenced the abstracts with the library manuscript catalogue numbers:
