[Deficiency and excess syndrome of chronic atrophic gastritis]

In this study, Syndrome of Deficiency revealed that gastric acid secretion, cellular immunity, hematopoietic and synthetic metabolism were all decreased. The RBC, Hb, TG, HDL-C, CD8, infection rate of HP, the degree of atypical hyperplasia and the staining intensity of PNA were different for Spleen-Kidney-Deficiency syndrome from spleen-Deficiency syndrome, the former was lower than the latter, while LPO was higher and ESR was faster for the former. Syndrome of Excess revealed that the serum gastrin level was higher, humoral immunity and catabolic metabolism were increased, its blood was in hyperviscosity and hypercoagulation state. The Qi Stagnation with Blood Stasis was different from the Qi stagnation alone which including the atrophic degree of the former was severer, the ESR was faster than that of the later. The Heat Stagnation (HS), retention of Dampness (RD) and Damp-Heat (DH) have some difference. First, for secretion of gastric acid. HS was the lowest, DH the next, RD the third. Second, for the level of LPO, HS was the highest.
