The definition of syndrome b ased on the concep tions of tradition al Ch inese medicine is basically clear, bu t th e qualitative macr o-criteria for syndrome are not stand ardized and the research meth od s for quan tification of such cr iteria are not u nified. These hindered th e p rocessing of the moderni- zation of traditional Ch inese medicin e to a great exten t; ther efore new research m ethod s for syndrome usin g techniques of mod ern sci- ences shou ld be fu rth er investigated . Du rin g the resear ch of syndrome, it is suggested that: ( 1) th e r esearch should be tu rned to com- plex syndrome from the fundamen tal simple syn drome gr adu ally, on th e basis of certain diseases in western medicine ; ( 2 ) animal ex- periment would b e of n o significan ce b efore quite a succ
