Progress in Clinical Research on Treatment of Chronic Atrophic Gastritis of Spleen-Stomach Deficiency-Cold Type with Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine

Abstract

Chronic atrophic gastritis of spleen and stomach deficiency cold type is a common digestive disease in clinical practice, and significant progress has been made in its treatment research in recent years. This condition is mainly caused by the weakness of spleen and stomach function and the internal generation of cold, with clinical manifestations including dull pain in the stomach area, preference for warmth and pressure, loss of appetite, and fatigue. In modern medicine, Western medicine often employs methods such as eradicating Helicobacter pylori, promoting gastric motility, and inhibiting gastric acid, but these approaches have issues such as numerous adverse reactions and a high tedency for recurrence. Traditional Chinese medicine has shown unique advantages in the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis of spleen and stomach deficiency cold type. Therefore, the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine has also become a major trend. This article provides a review of the research on the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis of spleen and stomach deficiency cold type.
