After gastroscopy, the standardized constitution in Chinese medicine questionnaire was used to evaluation the scores of all kinds of constitutional types. The Constitutional types of Chinese medicine of primary bile reflux gastritis among different seasons were analyzed. Results Among all seasons, the positive detection rate showed significant difference (χ2=13.041, P=0.005), and summer group showed the highest among the four seasons (23.38% vs. 17.63%,χ2=12.414, P<0.001). Among all seasons, constitutional types of Chinese medicine of primary bile reflux gastritis had significant difference (χ2=37.441, P<0.001). Damp-heated type had significant difference among seasons (χ2=8.472, P=0.037), especially during the summer (χ2=5.847, P=0.016).
