Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of traditional Chinese medicine technology, specifically relating to a composition for treating chronic gastritis and its preparation method, which has the effect of invigorating qi and strengthening the spleen. Background Technology

[0002] Chronic gastritis is a very common digestive system disease with a high incidence rate in the population. Most people may experience symptoms of digestive system dysfunction such as stomach pain and bloating to varying degrees or for varying lengths of time in their lives. Chronic gastritis is a chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa caused by various factors. It occurs in the gastric mucosal layer and is manifested as inflammatory cell infiltration of the gastric mucosa. Under gastroscopy, it can be seen as congestion, edema, erosion, and bleeding of mucosal cells. Chronic gastritis is very common in clinical practice. Studies have shown that about 80% to 90% of all people who undergo gastroscopy will be diagnosed with chronic gastritis. There are more male patients than female patients, and the incidence of chronic gastritis increases with age. Causes of chronic gastritis (1) Helicobacter pylori infection: Helicobacter pylori infection is the most important cause of chronic gastritis. About half of chronic gastritis is caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. (2) Poor dietary habits: Long-term consumption of strong tea, strong alcohol, and coffee, eating spicy and coarse foods, eating too quickly, liking to eat too hot food, and being too hungry or too full are all bad dietary habits that can easily lead to chronic gastritis. Taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, glucocorticoids, and some drugs for treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases may also cause chronic gastritis. (3) Mental and psychological factors: People engaged in highly competitive occupations with high mental stress have a significantly higher incidence of chronic gastritis than the general population. Tension, anxiety, irritability, sadness, etc. can all cause autonomic nervous system dysfunction, leading to chronic gastritis or inducing the symptoms of chronic gastritis. (4) Climate and environmental factors: When the climate changes and seasons change, if the human body cannot adapt in a short period of time, in addition to the possibility of catching a cold or other diseases, chronic gastritis may also be triggered. For people who have already suffered from chronic gastritis, seasonal changes and cooler weather may cause a relapse of chronic gastritis.

[0003] In addition, genetic factors and other diseases can also promote the development of chronic gastritis. The main cause of chronic atrophic gastritis is stagnation of stomach qi. The stomach functions smoothly when its qi is flowing downwards; if this flow is obstructed, the stomach loses its smooth downward movement, leading to pain. The entire pathological process is complex, but can be summarized in the following aspects.

[0004] 1. Stomach Qi stagnation leads to damp-heat: When stomach Qi stagnates, its function of descending and transforming is disrupted, and it cannot properly digest and transport food downwards. As food fails to be properly transformed, water becomes dampness and food becomes stagnant, and this stagnation can generate damp-heat.

[0005] 2. Prolonged stagnation of Qi can transform into heat or cold. Anger can lead to stagnation of Liver Qi. If Liver Qi stagnation persists, it often transforms into heat, initially consuming body fluids and eventually depleting vital Qi and damaging Stomach Yin. Conversely, worry and anxiety can cause Spleen Qi stagnation, often transforming into cold. Initially, Stomach Yang is injured, and over time, it depletes vital Qi and damages Middle Yang, resulting in various symptoms. Spleen deficiency and impaired Middle Yang function lead to water retention, which in turn produces dampness and phlegm, obstructing the Stomach and Intestines.

[0006] 3. Qi stagnation and blood stasis, prolonged illness affecting the collaterals: Stomach pain, if prolonged, can affect the blood, leading to blood stasis on top of qi stagnation. Hence the ancient saying, "Prolonged pain affects the collaterals." If stomach pain is persistent and unresolved, phlegm and blood stasis may accumulate, obstructing the stomach and worsening the symptoms. In such cases, be alert to the possibility of cancer.

[0024] The application of the aforementioned traditional Chinese medicine composition in the preparation of drugs for treating chronic gastritis, specifically chronic atrophic gastritis.

[0025] The above-mentioned Pinellia ternata is ginger-processed Pinellia ternata. The processing method for ginger-processed Pinellia ternata is as follows: Take clean Pinellia ternata, separate them by size, and soak them in water until the inside is no longer dry; separately, take sliced ​​ginger and decoct it in water, add alum and cook together with the Pinellia ternata until thoroughly cooked, remove, air dry until semi-dry, slice thinly, and dry completely. For every 100kg of Pinellia ternata, use 25kg of ginger and 12.5kg of alum. This product is in the form of flakes, irregular granules, or near-spherical shapes. The surface is brown to brownish-brown. It is hard and brittle, with a light yellowish-brown cross-section, often with a horny luster. It has a slightly fragrant odor, a bland taste with a slightly numbing sensation on the tongue, and is slightly sticky when chewed.

[0026] Beneficial effects:

[0027] 1. The *Suwen* (Plain Questions) chapter on Bi syndrome states, "When one eats twice as much, the stomach and intestines are damaged." Zhu Danxi, in *Zheng Yin Mai Zhi* (Causes and Treatments of Diseases), points out that stomach pain can be caused by excessive labor, irregular eating habits, insufficient Qi, and invasion of cold pathogens. However, prolonged illness easily leads to "stagnation and the generation of heat, or pre-existing heat, where deficiency and heat combine and stagnate in the stomach, causing pain; or food stagnation and phlegm; or Qi and food stagnation that cannot be dispersed, causing pain in the stomach." Therefore, prolonged stomach pain, whether due to the use of warming and drying medicines, or liver Yin deficiency and liver Yang hyperactivity, which scorches stomach Yin and depletes kidney water, often manifests as stomach Yin deficiency. Symptoms include dull stomach pain, dry mouth and throat, poor appetite, constipation, red tongue with little coating, and a thready and rapid or thready and wiry pulse, indicating chronic gastritis. Gastroscopy often reveals chronic atrophic gastritis. Due to stomach yin deficiency, this invention uses Rehmannia glutinosa and Ophiopogon japonicus to nourish yin and benefit the stomach. For liver yin deficiency or liver yang hyperactivity that scorches stomach yin, Paeonia suffruticosa and Gardenia jasminoides are used to clear liver fire. For liver fire invading the stomach, Phragmites communis and Dendrobium nobile are used to clear stomach heat. Rehmannia glutinosa, Ophiopogon japonicus, Paeonia suffruticosa, Gardenia jasminoides, Phragmites communis, and Dendrobium nobile are the principal herbs. Moreover, since chronic and recurrent stomach pain inevitably involves phlegm and blood stasis, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Corydalis yanhusuo, Angelica sinensis, and Ligusticum chuanxiong are used to invigorate blood and remove blood stasis. Among them, Angelica sinensis and Ligusticum chuanxiong also have the effect of soothing the liver and relieving urgency, inhibiting liver yang hyperactivity. Bupleurum chinense is used to soothe the liver, Lycium barbarum is used to nourish the liver and kidneys, and Pinellia ternata and Citrus reticulata are used to regulate qi, strengthen the spleen, dry dampness and resolve phlegm. Salvia miltiorrhiza, Corydalis yanhusuo, Angelica sinensis, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Bupleurum chinense, Lycium barbarum, Pinellia ternata, and Citrus reticulata are the assistant herbs. Among the above herbs, Rehmannia glutinosa and Angelica sinensis can also treat constipation due to fluid deficiency, targeting dry stools. When wood is stagnant, earth weakens. Atractylodes macrocephala and Poria cocos support earth and suppress wood. Dioscorea opposita, malt, coix seed, polygonatum sibiricum, and chicken gizzard membrane promote diuresis, eliminate dampness, strengthen the spleen, and calm the mind, serving as adjuvant herbs. Citrus aurantium and costus root promote qi circulation and relieve pain, serving as guiding herbs. The entire formula takes nourishing yin and benefiting the stomach, clearing liver fire, and clearing stomach heat as its main treatment principles, while also regulating qi and blood. It helps the deficient to flow smoothly and helps the stagnant to be released. It includes Rehmannia glutinosa, Ophiopogon japonicus, Paeonia suffruticosa, Gardenia jasminoides, Phragmites communis, Dendrobium nobile, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Corydalis yanhusuo, Angelica sinensis, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Bupleurum chinense, Lycium barbarum, Pinellia ternata, Citrus reticulata, Atractylodes macrocephala, Poria cocos, Dioscorea opposita, malt, coix seed, polygonatum sibiricum, chicken gizzard membrane, Citrus aurantium, and costus root, and is used to treat chronic gastritis of the stomach yin deficiency type.

[0028] 2. Compared with the blank group, the pepsin activity of rats in the model group was significantly reduced (P<0.01); compared with the model group, the high, medium and low dose groups of Example 1 of the present invention and the positive control group could all increase the pepsin activity of rats, and the high dose group of Example 1 of the present invention and the positive control group had significant effects (P<0.05), indicating that the present invention can increase the pepsin activity of rats and has the effect of treating chronic gastritis.

[0029] 3. In this study, a total of 100 patients were collected in the clinical experimental group. 45 patients were cured, 28 patients showed significant improvement, 15 patients showed improvement, and 8 patients showed no improvement. The total effective rate was 92%. It can be seen that the traditional Chinese medicine composition of the present invention has a good clinical therapeutic effect on chronic gastritis of the stomach yin deficiency type.

The modeling group received a combination of chronic injury factors: ① 60% ethanol, administered by gavage every 3 days on an empty stomach (with feed removed the previous night), 8 mL / kg each time; ② 20 mmol / L sodium deoxycholate, administered by gavage once daily, 8 mL / kg each time; ③ 0.1% ammonia solution was prepared daily as the rats' drinking water for free access, and the daily intake was recorded; ④ 0.05% indomethacin, administered by gavage once daily, 8 mL / kg each time; ⑤ An irregular feeding method was used: 2 days of adequate feeding, followed by 1 day of fasting. Modeling was continued for 40 weeks. At 30 weeks of modeling using the comprehensive method, rats were randomly selected every week, and gastric mucosal tissue was taken for pathological examination to determine the pathological changes of gastric mucosal atrophy. Treatment began after the pathological formation of gastric mucosal atrophy in the CAG model rats. CAG rats were numbered according to their body weight and randomly divided into a model group, a positive control group, and high, medium, and low dose groups according to Example 1 of this invention, with 8 rats in each group.

[0058] Administration: In Example 1 of this invention, the high, medium, and low dose groups were administered 24, 12, and 6 g of medicinal material / kg of Example 1 of this invention via gavage daily (equivalent to 12, 6, and 3 times the dose for a 60 kg adult, respectively); the positive control group was administered 0.30 g / kg of vitamin B complex via gavage daily (equivalent to 6 times the dose for a 60 kg adult). The equivalent dose was calculated according to the human-animal coefficient. Administration continued for 120 days. The daily administration volume was 10 mL / kg. The blank group and model group were administered an equal volume of distilled water via gavage.

[0059] Specimen Collection and Testing: After anesthesia and euthanasia, gastric mucosal tissue was rapidly dissected under low temperature conditions, rinsed with ice-cold physiological saline, blotted dry with filter paper, weighed, and quickly minced with ophthalmic scissors. The tissue was then placed in a homogenizer and homogenized with 9 times its weight of physiological saline. The homogenate was centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 10 min, and the supernatant was collected and stored at 4°C for testing of gastric tissue protease activity. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0062] Note: Compared with the blank group, ** P < 0.01; compared with the model group, △ P < 0.05

[0063] Compared with the blank group, the pepsin activity of rats in the model group was significantly reduced (P<0.01); compared with the model group, the high, medium and low dose groups of Example 1 of the present invention and the positive control group could all increase the pepsin activity of rats, and the high dose group of Example 1 of the present invention and the positive control group had significant effects (P<0.05) and showed a dose-related relationship, indicating that the present invention can increase the pepsin activity of rats and has the effect of treating chronic gastritis.

[0064] Example 7: Clinical application of the traditional Chinese medicine composition of the present invention

[0065] 7.1 We collected 100 patients who met the inclusion criteria.

[0066] Traditional Chinese Medicine Diagnostic Criteria: Meets the diagnostic criteria for chronic gastritis (stomach pain), referring to the "Consensus Opinion on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Atrophic Gastritis in Traditional Chinese Medicine" (Spleen and Stomach Diseases Branch of China Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine) and the "Guiding Principles for Clinical Research of New Traditional Chinese Medicine Drugs" (2002). It meets the criteria for chronic gastritis with stomach yin deficiency syndrome, with symptoms such as dull stomach pain, dry mouth and throat, poor appetite, dry stools, red tongue with little coating, thready and rapid or thready and wiry pulse, and varying degrees and types of stomach pain, abdominal distension, belching, nausea, loss of appetite, and acid reflux.

[0067] Western medicine diagnostic criteria: Refer to the "Chinese Consensus Opinion on Chronic Gastritis" (Second National Consensus Conference on Chronic Gastritis of the Chinese Medical Association Gastroenterology Branch, 2006, Shanghai). Common symptoms of chronic gastritis include upper abdominal pain, abdominal distension, early satiety, decreased appetite, reduced food intake, or heartburn and acid reflux. Symptoms lack specificity, and diagnosis depends on endoscopic examination and pathology. (1) Endoscopic diagnosis: The submucosal mucosa is red and white, with white predominating. The mucosal folds are flattened or even disappear, mucosal blood vessels are exposed, and the mucosa is granular or nodular. If accompanied by bile reflux, erosion, or intramucosal hemorrhage, it is described as atrophic gastritis or superficial gastritis with bile reflux, erosion, or intramucosal hemorrhage. (2) Pathological diagnosis: 2-5 biopsy tissues can be taken as needed. The pathology should classify HP, chronic inflammation, active inflammation, atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, and dysplasia. Chronic gastritis can be diagnosed as atrophic gastritis based on the presence of atrophy of the intrinsic glands on biopsy. The number and extent of atrophic lesions in the biopsy specimen need not be considered. Clinicians can make a judgment on the extent and degree of the lesion by combining pathological results and endoscopic findings.

[0068] 7.2 Efficacy Evaluation Criteria: The efficacy evaluation was based on the Consensus Opinion on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Gastritis in Traditional Chinese Medicine issued by the Spleen and Stomach Diseases Branch of the China Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine (2009).

[0069] Evaluation criteria: Evaluation criteria for the efficacy of main symptoms, recording and evaluation of main symptoms (stomach pain and bloating). The percentage of improvement of main symptoms is calculated as follows: (Total score before treatment - Total score after treatment) / Total score before treatment * 100%. (1) Cured: Symptoms disappear. (2) Significantly effective: Percentage of improvement of symptoms ≥ 80%. (3) Effective: 50% ≤ Percentage of improvement of symptoms < 80%. (4) Ineffective: Percentage of improvement of symptoms < 50%.

[0070] 7.3 Treatment Plan: The patient shall take the herbal composition (prepared as granules) of Example 1 of this invention, twice daily (morning and evening), with the following daily dosage: Rehmannia glutinosa 23g, Ophiopogon japonicus 20g, Paeonia suffruticosa 14g, Gardenia jasminoides 20g, Phragmites communis 22g, Dendrobium nobile 10g, Salvia miltiorrhiza 20g, Corydalis yanhusuo 14g, Angelica sinensis 22g, Ligusticum chuanxiong 20g, Bupleurum chinense 20g, Lycium barbarum 20g, Pinellia ternata 16g, Citrus reticulata 22g, Atractylodes macrocephala 20g, Poria cocos 24g, Dioscorea opposita 24g, Hordeum vulgare 20g, Coix lacryma-jobi 22g, Polygonatum sibiricum 22g, Gallus gallus domesticus gizzard lining 20g, Citrus aurantium 15g, Aucklandia lappa 14g. One course of treatment is 30 days, and two consecutive courses are recommended. During the treatment period, patients must follow the doctor's instructions to change their lifestyle, such as: quitting smoking, reducing alcohol consumption, avoiding spicy and stimulating foods, avoiding lying down immediately after meals and eating before bed, ensuring sufficient sleep, and maintaining a reasonable diet.

[0071] 7.4 Results: In this study, a total of 100 patients were collected in the clinical experimental group. 45 patients were cured, 28 patients showed significant improvement, 15 patients showed improvement, and 8 patients showed no improvement. The total effective rate was 92%. It can be seen that the traditional Chinese medicine composition of the present invention has a good clinical therapeutic effect on chronic gastritis of the stomach yin deficiency type.
