Abstract:
Objective To investigate the syndrome elements of chronic gastritis; To provide references for syndrome differentiation and treatment of chronic gastritis. Methods Totally 300 patients of chronic gastritis were investigated through a pre-designed scale. Syndrome elements were summarized with factor analysis. Results There were 6 common factors (syndrome elements) picked up by factor analysis. Syndrome elements of disease locations were stomach, spleen, liver, and syndrome elements of disease characteristics were qi deficiency, qi stagnation, blood stasis, stagnated heat, damp obstruction, and dampness-heat, which were consistent with clinical observation. Conclusion It is feasible to apply factor analysis to syndrome elements of chronic gastritis, which can provide references for syndrome differentiation and treatment.
