Objectives : The study was aimed to analyze the correlation between Herbology and contemporary research results, KCD-codes, and terms. The study will present information that can be used to find the direction of further researches and be applied to the education of Herbology. Methods : Papers were searched in PubMed, ScienceDirect, and KISS. Papers were then categorized as "medicine and pharmacy articles" or "articles unrelated to medicine and pharmacy." Medicine or pharmacy articles about Clerodendri Trichotomi Folium were matched with treatments in Herbology and KCD-codes. Medicine and pharmacy articles not researching Clerodendri Trichotomi Folium mainly, and articles unrelated to medicine and pharmacy were categorized and analyzed. KCD-codes and terms were arranged by treatments in Herbology. Research types, the number of papers, and the citation count were arranged by each treatment in Herbology. Degrees of Herbology research were represented as a number and a graph. Results : There were 25 Medicine and pharmacy articles about Clerodendri Trichotomi Folium, 6 medicine and pharmacy articles which did not studied Clerodendri Trichotomi Folium mainly. Among in vivo researched herbology treatments, Hypertension scored 47, migraine scored 47, and abscess and scabies scored 53. Conclusions : The category 'Abscess and scabies' was the most researched treatment in Herbology. Of the medicine and pharmacy articles that did not match treatments in Herbology, there were in vivo researching on reflux oesophagitis, Malignant neoplasm of bronchus and lung, and that of breast which can be used in the Herbology education field.
