Abstract:
33 patients with chronic atrophic gastritis were divided into 2 groups. Among them, 19 patients were treated with small doses of pentagastrin for 8 weeks, whereas the other 14 served as a control group. The therapeutic effect was decided by overall observations of the subjective symptoms, biopsy of the gastric mucosa and the change in cytodynamics before and after the treatment. The results showed that small doses of pentagastrin can markedly relieve the clinical symptoms of atrophic gastritis, lessen the pathological changes to some extent, and reduce labelling indices in a part of the patients with a-trophic gastritis in the gastric body. The treatment showed no definite therapeutic effect on atrophic gastritis in the gastric antrum.
