Abstract:
Purpose: To observe the clinical efficacy on acupuncture treatment of atrophic gastritis. Methods: Points Zhongwan (CV 12) and Zusanli (ST 36) were selected to treat 38patients with atrophic gastritis by reducing within reinforcing manipulations. The curative effect was evaluated and compared with that in a medication group. Results: A comparison of the comprehensive clinical efficacy between the acupuncture group and the medication group showed that the effective rate was 86.8% and 84.2% respectively. Statistical analysis showed that there was no significant difference in clinical effect between the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion: Acupuncture can get the same effect as medication in treating atrophic gastritis.
