The Nidāna as a separate book is mentioned once in the Indian books of the Paradise of Wisdom. The term Nidāna appears on two other occasions, where it is not the Mādhavanidāna that is referred to, but the Nidāna section of some other treatise. Neither a direct translation of parts of the Mādhavanidāna is traceable nor of passages from the Caraka-, Suśruta- and Aṣṭāngahṛdayasaṃhitā, for ‘Alī ibn Sahl only gives summaries of Indian medical doctrines.
