Abstract
    Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a common and frequently-occurring disease in digestive system,which can injure stomach yin over time. As far as dryness is concerned,it means that the damp heat in the stomach is rather severe,which makes the stomach shut up,and dampness causes qi and body fluid to be prevented from spreading,thus forming the dryness of the stomach,which runs through the whole process of yin deficiency syndrome,so it is said that "yin deficiency must be dry". The phrase "dryness syndrome should be treated by moistening therapy" comes from Suwen·Zhizhenyaodalun,that is,moist products are used to treat the deficiency of body fluid,and any medicine that can restore the softness of stomach can be called moistening agent. Professor LIU Qingquan,a famous Chinese medicine doctor in China,treated atrophic gastritis with stomach yin deficiency syndrome based on his clinical experience for many years and the theory of "dryness syndrome should be treated by moistening therapy". In the early stage of CAG,yin was injured by qi stagnation or damp-heat,so sweet and cold regulating qi drugs were used to nourish stomach yin. In the middle stage,because "mother-organ affecting the child-organ" affected the lungs,it is advisable to moisten the yin of lung and stomach with light-hearted drugs. In the later stage,according to the theory that "the five internal organs are connected,and every movement has its own order","the injury of the five internal organs must affect the kidney",salty and cold tonic were used to nourish the yin of stomach and kidney to restore the yin.
