Board Exam Prep
Source: as Chinese medicine developed, the theory of the Five elements (5E) was not
always applied and was not always the most popular theory; 5E theory was very
popular during the period of the Warring States (475-221 BC) and was applied to
medicine, astrology, music, and politics; however, during the 1st century 5E theory was
seen as too rigid to correctly interpret natural phenomenon where one philosopher said
"If the rooster belongs to Metal and the hare belongs to Wood, why is it that roosters do
not devour hares?"; with the Han Dynasty (206 BC - 220 AD) the 5E theory began to
wane and from the Ming Dynasty (1368 - 1644 AD) onward 5E theory decreased in
influence and medicine was dominated with identification of patterns according to the
Cold Diseases, Four Levels and Three Burners - The Foundations of Chinese Medicine,
Maciocia, 2015, page 20; 2005 Edition, page 20; 1989 Edition, page 16

Source: The pupil is associated with the Kidneys. Both canthi are associated with the
Heart. The theory of the Five Wheels is used in the diagnosis of eye disorders. It divides
the eyes into five areas called Wheels. The BLOOD WHEEL is associated with the
Heart and corresponds to both canthi. The Heart goversn the Blood. In the inner canthi
are small openings (called palace of tears) from which tears flow and disperse essential
qi that moistens and nourish the eyeball. The WIND WHEEL is asociated with the Liver
and corresponds to the iris (black of the eye) and defends the pupil-spirit. The Liver
governs Wind. The QI WHEEL is associated with the Lungs and corresponds to the
sclera (whites of the eye) which protects the inner system of the eyeball. The Lungs
govern qi. The WATER WHEEL is associated with the Kidneys and corresponds to the
pupil-spirit which should be clear and bright, reflecting the importance to vision. The
Kidneys govern water. The FLESH WHEEL is associated with the Spleen and
corrresponds to the eyelids (top and bottom). The upper eyelid and the eye lashes help
to protect the eyeball. The Spleen governs the muscles.

types of diagnosis and patterns of differentiation in order to arrive at a determination of
energetic configuration.

Source: There are only three bars. The first index finger joint (closest to the knuckle) is
the Wind Bar, the middle joint is the Qi Bar, and the last joint is the Life Bar. In children

empty pulse on the right middle position. What is the Stomach zang-fu pattern?

A. Stomach Yin Deficiency

C. Stomach Fire

, D. Stomach Phlegm-Fire - ✔️✔️A. Stomach Yin Deficiency

after eating) with Empty Heat (night sweating, afternoon fever); the floating-empty pulse
and rootless coating can manifest in either (just Stomach Yin Xu or Stomach Yin Xu
with Empty Heat); there are symptoms of dryness because the fluids (yin) originate in
the Stomach; when the Stomach is deficient there can be symptoms of dryness; what is
unique and typical about Stomach Yin Deficiency is the dry mouth with a desire to drink
in small amounts; if the only sign is an absence of coating at the center of the tongue, is
enough to make the diagnosis of Stomach Yin Deficiency; the treatment principle is

Source: in Greek philosophy the elements (Air, Water, Earth, Fire) can mix with each
other and can even transform into one another; for example, Earth (cold-dry) can
generate Water (cold-wet) if wetness of Water replaces the dryness of Earth; the

theory of the Five Elements; both philosophies see the elements as the transformative
qualities of nature - The Foundations of Chinese Medicine, Maciocia, 2015, page 19;
