161 cases of chronic gastritis (including 59 superficial gastritis, 86 atrophic gastritis, 16 superficial gastritis combined with atrophic gastritis) typed in deficiency syndrome (including 64 Spleen-deficiency syndrome, 97 Spleen-Kidney-deficiency syndrome) were studied clinically with modern medicinal multiple-index. The gastroscope image, pathologic changes of gastric mucosa, stomach barium meal examination, gastric acid, serum gastrin, urine pepsinogen, urine 17-ketosteroid, vegetative nerve function, peripheral blood picture, etc. were selected as observation indices. The preliminary findings showed that in Spleen-deficiency patients, the superficial gastritis constituted the majority, the asthenic stomach constituted the minority, the gastric secretion and the serum gastrin were on the high side, the urine pepsinogen, the adrenocortical function and the hemoglobin were on the low side, but the white blood cell was rather normal; otherwise, in Spleen-Kidney deficiency patients, the atrophic gastritis and the asthenic stomach constituted the majority, the gastric secretion decreased, the serum gastrin level was higher, while the urine pepsinogen, the adrenocortical function, white blood cell and the hemoglobin were on the low side. It was also found that in certain same inflammation changes, the gastric secretion of the Spleen-Kidney-deficiency syndrome was markedly than that of Spleen-deficiency syndrome. With the treatment method of invigorating the Spleen and reinforcing the Spleen-Kidney, each index was relatively improved. The degree of seriousness to inflammation changes of gastric mucosa and the disturbance or imbalance of gastric secretion function were reflected from the Spleen-deficiency and the Spleen-Kidney-deficiency syndromes of chronic gastritis. It is suggested that hemopoiesis and hypothalamo-adenohypophysial-adrenal cortical axis be influenced.
