Effect of Tongluo-Jiedu-Huazhuo decoction on hemorheological indexes and gastric juice components in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis / 国际中医中药杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the effects of Tongluo-Jiedu-Huazhuo decoction on hemorheological indexes and gastric juice components in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis.Methods According to the inclusion criteria,84 patients with chronic atrophic gastritis were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group,with 42 cases in each group.The control group received the routine clinical treatment,and the observation group was treated with Tongluo-Jiedu-Huazhuo decoction on the basis of the control group.The clinical symptoms were scored before and after treatment.The blood viscosity,plasma viscosity,hematocrit,fibrinogen and erythrocyte aggregation index were measured bY automatic hemorheology instrument,and gastric juice pH,free acid,pepsin and nitrite levels were measured by serial gastric juice detection method.The clinical efficacy was evaluted.Results The total effective rate of the observation group was 90.5％ (38/42),and the total effective rate of the control group was 76.2％ (32/42),with statistically significant difference (Z=-2.683,P＜0.05).After treatment,the scores of epigastric pain,stomach swelling,nausea and vomiting,acid reflux and dietary deficiency in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (t were 4.865,4.632,4.716,4.582,4.433,respectively,all Ps＜0.05),and the whole blood viscosity,plasma viscosity,hematocrit,fibrinogen and erythrocyte aggregation index were significantly lower than those in the control group (t were 5.044,4.462,5.274,4.231 and 4.485,respectively,all Ps＜0.05).The gastric juice pH (2.28 ± 0.33 vs.2.75 ± 0.38,t=4.825),nitrite (33.27 ± 4.45 mg/L vs.38.80 ± 4.93 mg/L,t=5.136) in the observation group were significantly lower than the control group (P＜0.05).The free acid (22.13 ± 3.36 mmol/L vs.18.65 ± 2.54 mmol/L,t=5.382),pepsin (144.56 ± 15.86 U vs.137.16 ± 14.63 U,t=5.736) in the observation group were significantly higher than the control group (P＜0.05).Conclusions The application of Tongluo-Jiedu-Huazhuo decoction in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis can improve the hemorrheology index and regulate the function of gastric secretion,which is helpful to protect the gastric mucosa and relieve the clinical symptoms.
