ABSTRACT
Even though the twelve meridians are connected with five zang and six fu organs separately according to the record in Huangdi Neijing (Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic), the relations of meridians with corresponding zangfu organs are different in characteristics. Through comparing the relative characteristics between meridians and zangfu organs, it is believed that the relationship is established earlier and is quite closer between meridians and five zang organs. There is a great correlation between the disorders of five zang organs and the disorders of meridians. The disorders of five zang organs are commonly treated by the corresponding five-shu points of meridians. The relationship between meridians and six fu organs is established relatively late and the correlation between them is not as closer as that between meridians and five zang organs. The disorders of six fu organs are generally treated by the lower he-sea points. The different characteristics of the correlation between meridians and zangfu organs are relevant with the degree of their integration, the philosophical and cultrual factors and the recognition of ancient masters on zangfu organs.
