The sign forecast according to the human shape type diagnosis is mainly the sign of the super-early stage, The difference of the shape type has the difference of the special affinity about the disease. Accordingly we can find the sign forecast from the latent disease in the early stage. In NAE-GYEONG(內經), the theory of "five body form's type" can be pre-estimated the latent tendency and the clue of the disease and the growing tendency of disease in relation to the Differentiation of Syndrome, In the disease pre-estimate side, the graspe and management of the sign forecast from the latent disease will be the part of the new development.

Dr. Lawrence H Jones developed innovative approach for the treatment of neuromuscular and musculo-skeletal disorders such as fibromyalgia, myofacial pain syndrome, any other muscle pain. This technique is called Strain/Counterstrain technique which uses effect of neuromuscular reflex for treatment of strain. First, Relieving spinal or other joint pain by passively putting the joint into its position of greatest comfort; secondly relieving pain by reduction and arrest of the continuing inappropriate proprioceptor activity. This was accomplished by markedly shortening the muscle that contains the malfunctioning muscle spindle by applying. mild strain to its antagonists. In other words, the inappropriate strain reflex is inhibited by application of counterstrain. Many other techniques have been developed for treating of muscle pain due to somatic dysfunction, but we want to introduce you to strain/counterstrain technique because this is basic concept and theory of Chum therapy for controling motor system.

Objectives : This study was to verify the Attributive Channel theory of herbal medicine. Methods : [$^{131}I$]iodohesperetin was synthesized, separated, and refined from hesperetin, the major component of Citrus species, followed by observing the biodistribution in an organism of C57 BL/6 mice with and without Lewis Lung Carcinoma. Results : Iodohesperetin 27.5 mg was obtained through column cliromatography after a reaction with 50 mg of Hesperitin and 8 mg of Nal. The radiochemical yield of [$^{131}I$]iodohesperetin synthesis was 25 % when checked with Radio TLC chromatography. [131I]iodohesperetin was most largely distributed in the stomach, lung and liver of C57BL/6 mouse. The highest %ID/g in stomach was 40 min, in lung and liver was 20 min after injection. The % ID/g of tumor tissue was comparable with that of blood. Conclusions : The fact that [$^{131}I$]iodocurcumin was most largely distributed in the stomach, lung and liver was related with the Attributive Channel theory. And there was no significant finding related to tumor cells.

Formative ability of color fields in a formative early Oriental Medicine history as well. Color is a very important factor and a necessary step of visible diagnosis. As a human's body is maintained and alive under the control of spirit and spirit is stored by five viscera, so spirit expresses the change of five viscera and is reflected by color. Visible diagnosis consists of spirit, appearance, Qi and color and movement. The purpose of each visible diagnosis is that we would know states of essence, Qi and spirit in patient's body. To ancient Asia people 'to see' was a kind of insight to the object as a whole. Similarily the activity of seeing the human body was the integral part of making diagnosis of a patient. This was the cause that there was suggested the discussion of the Five color theory in Oriental Medicine as a counterpart to that of the 'Goethe for Zur Farbenlehrer'. The inspection of Oriental Medicine was not a simple gazing of the eye as a sense organ, but the total insight to the internal state of the patient. For that reason, the eye－perception in early Chinese medicine was the reading the signs of the internal body which had have not the visual form but the flux of the internal life.

Sasanag Contitution Medicine(SCM) is the traditional medicine theory based on constitutional medicine in Korea. It is most import ant that a personal SCM type is determined accurately ahead of applying any Sasang treatments. For this, many researches have been studied to diagnose the SCM type using constitutional clinical data. The decision tree is a tree-structured data-mining methodology. Recently, in the Korean traditional medicine society, there have been several efforts to find diagnosing tools using the decision tree method. So, we developed a decision tree program based on web for analyzing constitutional clinical information. It can use various clinical data as input data, offer filtering function to select clinical data to be used. We can find useful factor to be influential on SCM types using this program.
