Objective: The purpose of this paper is to observe the clinical effect of taking Weiwei Tongtiao tang-a prescription from herbal medicine in Guizhou province and combining with injection into acupuncture point on treating chronic atrophic gastritis(CAG). Method: Randomly 120 cases which meet the diagnostic criteria were divided into 4 groups to cureby 4 different methods
the 1st method was only to take Weiwei Tongtiao tang (n=30)
the 2nd was only to choose acupuncture point injection (n=30)
the 3rd was to combine taking Weiwei Tongtiao tang and injection into acupuncture point(n=30)
while the 4th was only to take Weifuchun tablet (n=30). After 3 months treatment
the score changes of clinical symptom and pathological signs before and treatment were compared. Result: We discovered that there was obvious improvement in the 3rd group comparing to others (P<0.05)
and the expression of cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) and Ki-67 of each group also improved evidently (P<0.05). Conclusion: It was suggested that Weiwei Tongtiao tang combining with acupuncture injection can obviously improve clinical symptom of CAG.
