Brief summary
In order to inform clinical treatment decisions and maximize treatment outcomes, this observational study set out to examine the relationship between pathological severity and sleep quality in patients with CAG. The idea that if the stomach is not in harmony, you will be restless is supported by this evidence from traditional Chinese medicine. Assessing patients' knowledge and acceptance of acupuncture therapy, determining the current general trend in CAG treatment, and assessing the initial effectiveness of acupuncture therapy in treating CAG with sleep disturbances. It is envisaged that the aforementioned investigations will aid in further refining the clinical research strategy of acupuncture and moxibustion with CAG with sleep disorders, enhance the effectiveness of treatment, and offer a more cost-effective and practical choice for treating CAG with sleep disorders. The primary research issue is: can the traditional Chinese medical notion of restlessness due to disharmony of the stomach be validated in order to ascertain whether there is a correlation between pathological severity and sleep quality in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis? The pathological conditions of CAG patients were gathered based on the most recent gastroscopy report within a year, and the patients' sleep quality scores from the previous month were gathered via a questionnaire.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The correlation coefficient between various pathological stages of Operative Link on Gastritis Assessment (OLGA) and Operative Link on Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia (OLGIM) and sleep quality in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is the main o | Gastroscopy and pathology reports within one year and sleep quality assessment within one week of participant enrollment | General condition (age, gender, height, weight, etc.), occupation, personal and family history, Helicobacter pylori infection history, acupuncture treatment, Pittsburgh sleep quality index, serum pepsinogen index, gastroscopy results, and clinical data (OLGA and OLGIM for gastric mucosal histopathology) were among the information that the researchers gathered. The association between the histological stages of OLGA and OLGIM in stomach mucosal histopathology and the sleep quality index in CAG patients was then examined by the researchers. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Acupuncture treatment response and sleep quality relationships, as well as other pertinent risk factors, were secondary outcomes | Patient's treatment to date after diagnosis of chronic atrophic gastritis, and whether participant has received acupuncture in the last 3 months | The clinical research program of acupuncture and moxibustion with CAG with sleep disturbances was further adjusted to evaluate the relationship between acupuncture treatment and sleep quality in CAG patients. The researchers looked into how CAG patients were treated overall, including whether they had previously undergone acupuncture treatment, their preferences for different acupuncture treatments, and their willingness and acceptance of acupuncture treatment. Additionally, the quality of the CAG patients' sleep throughout the previous month was examined. |
