Many upper gastrointestinal diseases such as peptic ulcer, chronic gastritis, functional dyspepsia and so on can induce the symptom of epigastralgia. In September 1983, National Symposium on Spleen and Stomach Disease was held by China Association of Chinese Medicine of Physicians, and programmed Diagnosis and evaluation standard of stomachache (draft )[1].

These 42 cases included 18 cases of deficiency syndrome type, 13 excess syndrome type and 11 mixed type of deficiency and excess. Zhongwan (CV 12), Neiguan (PC 6) and Zusanli (ST 36) were punctured combined with other acupoints according to syndrome patterns. After treatment, 32 cases (76.19%) were cured, 6(14.29%) had remarkable improvement and 4 (9.52%) had improvement, with a cure plus markedly effective rate of 90.48%. Gastroscopic and EGG examination suggested that the function and structure of the stomach returned to normal after acupuncture. In addition, acupuncture stimulation had a bi directional regulative action on gastric acid secretion, gastrin content, EGG activity, etc. Conclusion: Acupuncture treatment has a good regulative action on gastric function and structure in epigastralgia patients.展开更多
