Practice and thinking on the traditional Chinese medicine treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis based on pathological evaluation

Abstract

Chronic atrophic gastritis is a precancerous gastric disease with intestinal epithelial hyperplasia and heterogeneous proliferation based on mucosal atrophy. In recent years, the international guidelines and consensus on the treatment of precancerous gastric disease have been gradually updated, emphasizing the treatment of precancerous gastric disease and lesions based on the pathological changes as the outcome. Chinese medicine is widely used in the clinical treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis, but there are fewer research ideas of Chinese medicine based on the pathological evaluation of the results. In this article, the pathological concepts related to chronic atrophic gastritis and the clinical research ideas and practice strategies of traditional Chinese medicine based on the evaluation of pathological outcomes are compiled.
