The concept is cell of the theory. Starting from the concept, is the first and important step in building the modern basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine. Based on the early thought of Changes from phenomenon description to entity elucidation, we firstly introduce conceptual change in this paper and point out its basic meaning and role. To accurately apply the new concept, we have analyzed and demonstrated the concept and its expression object, the concept words' expression forms, as well as the concept explanatory power in details, and pointed out the problems because of ignoring these recognition in researching the concept of chinese medicine and its solutions. We have summarized the laws of the international scientific community realizing the conceptual change focus on the object, explore the unknown, propose new knowledge. and proposed the definition of conceptual change of the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine. According to preliminary findings we have generalized the goal and standard to achieve the conceptual change of the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine and gave examples of proof. As such we have draw an conclusion: the concepts of the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine form the scientific concepts of the modern basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine through conceptual change, and thus guiding the theory, teaching and thinking reform of the Chinese medicine.

AIM: To study the effect of Baixiangdan Capsule (Radix paeoniae alba and Rhizoma cyperi) on expression and behavior and sex hormone of rhesus monkey with premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and liver-qi invasion. METHODS: Twenty-four young rhesus monkeys in high rank and in the ovalatory menstrual cycle were isolated and squeezed 7 h a day for 5 d by specifically designed isolating-cage. At the same time Baixiangdan Capsule orally administed was compared with the control group of Jingqianping Granule. The expression and behavior changes of rhesus monkeys were observed and evaluated by The Measure Table of Emotion Evaluation of Female Experiment Macaque. And the levels of prolactin (PRL),estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P) in serum were investigated by radioimmunoassay. RESULTS: The scores of anxiety factors of the model monkeys were higher than the normal and the serum E2,and P levels decreased and PRL level increased significantly in the control group. As compared with the model group,Baixiangdan Capsule reduced the enhancing anxiety factor scores and also could increase the lower E2 and P levels in serum obviously and decrease PRL level. CONCLUSION: The above findings suggest that Baixiangdan Capsule has good regulative effects and makes it to the normal state on the abnormal expression and behavior and serum sex hormones of rhesus monkey with PMS and liver-qi invasion.
