普仁健康知识网是为了习惯于用中文的读者所建立。 目的是让读者了解如何预防，控制一些常见慢性病的发展的知识。网站的文章内容主要是来自于美国政府的疾病防控中心 （CDC） 以及国家卫生研究院的公共网站 （NIH）， 这些机构向广泛大众提供可共享的健康知识。因此，把文章内容翻译，为中文读者的服务就有了可能。 这些机构在其网站毫不含糊的说明，它们所提供预防疾病，保护健康的知识是有充实的调查研究结果作基础的。这一说明非常重要。 在当今信息膨胀的时代，有时有些真伪科学混杂的网络文章会误导读者。文章翻译的最高追求是表达原文意思，对译文的文法没有给予太多的注意。为了方便读者，在必要时译者加注了英制/公制的重量或体积的转换公式。虽然加注时，对英制/公制单位转化，以及血糖检查结果不同单位制的表达尽量准确， 读者仍需再次审查， 尤其是血糖单位转换。这是非常重要的，例如，低血糖的定义。所有的健康知识普及文章都强调所涉及的内容是以教育为目的，个人疾病的诊断 或治疗必须是由各人的医疗保健者作决定, 普仁健康知识网收集的文章内容也不例外。来源不同的文章，甚至同一来源的不同文章在讨论相同的题目时，部分內容会有重复，但是，各自不同的细节部分都给读者提供非常有价值的健康知识。 因此，本网站并不回避部份内容的重复。目前，普仁健康知识网的内容只涉及几种最常见的疾病，希望将来能扩大范围，提供读者更多的文章内容，了解对更多疾病的防治知识，这也是CDC和NIH所希望看到的。
PurenHealthInfo.com is designed for the readers who may have the difficulty of reading in English or prefer reading in Chinese. The goal of this website is to help readers to gain the current knowledge of protecting their health. The contents of information resources about how to prevent some of the most common chronic diseases are primarily from the websites of Center of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as well as National Institute of Health (NIH) of US government. Thanks to those resources published in the public domains, the translation of the information contents into other languages become possible. Thus, the knowledge of protecting people’s health can be shared, benefited extensively by all peoples without langue barriers. Regarding the name of this website, the word, “Puren” in Chinese, means Universal Benevolence, which is consistent with CDC and NIH’s mission. Based on scientific data, these organizations provide trustworthy information. This is extremely important. In the era of internet, false information of all kinds are rampant, articles of pseudo-science travel fast, misleading their readers in taking care their health. In the work of translation, the efforts on the translating accuracy superseded others such as sentence grammars in Chinese writing skills. To help those readers who are used to metric system, footnotes of conversion formulas have been added to some original passages. Although the serious efforts have been made on the accuracy of the conversion between the imperial units and metric units in some charts or tables, readers are strongly encouraged to do their own “double checking”, because some unit numbers are critically important, such as for the definition of Hypoglycemia. All educational materials on health indicate that the recommendations in the materials are not to replace health providers’ consultation for clinical decisions. This principle applies to the contents of PurenHealthInfo.com without exception. When discussing a same health condition, articles from different sources may have repetitive or similar descriptions. However, the different details of an individual article are greatly valuable for readers who are concerned about their health. Therefore, this website does not shun away from posting articles on a same subject.
