ABSTRACT

Objective: To explore the pathological basis of classification of splenasthenic syndrome in chronic gastritis by integrating TCM with modern medicine.Methods: Histopathology and sub cellular ultra structure(nuclei and mitochondrial) of gastric mucosa of 188 cases of splenic asthenia patients and 42 cases of voluntary blood donors usually devoid of clinical symptoms were analyzed by means of optical microscope,SEM,TEM and histochemical staining.Results: The gastric mucosa of patients with syndrome of deficiency of spleen-QI(SDSQ) and syndrome of deficiency of spleen-YANG(SDSY) could either be affected by organic lesion(type G occurring on the basis of CSG,CAG) or unaffected(type F chiefly belonging to functional indigestion);syndrome with splenic-yin asthenia(SSYA) and syndrome of spleen-deficiency and QI-stagnation(SSDQS) both occurred on the basis of CSG and CAG;and the degree of mucosa inflammatory cells infiltration,the degree of the decrease of gl and ular organs in lamina propria,and the incidence of IMⅡ_(b) in CSG,CAG were more serious than those of G-SDSQ,G-SDSY,P
