Abstract:Objective:To observe the clinical effect of Jinweitai Capsules combined with triple therapy for chronic superficial gastritis. Methods:A total of 135 cases of chronic superficial gastritis were selected and divided into the treatment group and the control group according to the random number table method, with 68 and 67 cases in each group respectively. The control group was treated with triple therapy,and the treatment group was treated with Jinweitai Capsules combined with triple therapy. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores and the levels of motilin (MTL) and gastrin (GAS) in serum before and after treatment,and clinical effects and the recurrence rates after one- month treatment were observed in the two groups. Results:The total effective rate was 95.59% in the treatment group and 83.58% in the control group,the difference being significant between the two groups (P<0.05). After treatment,TCM syndrome scores including distension and fullness in the stomach cavity,pain in the rib side,nausea,belching,and incomplete defecation in the two groups were decreased when compared with those before treatment, and each TCM syndrome score in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no significant difference being found in the comparison of the levels of MTL and GAS in serum between the two groups (P>0.05). After treatment,the levels of MTL and GAS in the two groups were increased when compared with those before treatment (P<0.05),and the two levels in the treatment group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The recurrence rate was 7.69% in the treatment group and 21.43% in the control group,the difference being significant between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion:Jinweitai Capsules combined with triple therapy has a definite curative effect in the treatment of chronic superficial gastritis,which can significantly relieve TCM syndromes,effectively regulate levels of gastrointestinal hormones,and reduce the recurrence rates of the disease.
