Ultrastructural observation of the gastric mucosa in chronic gastritis patients treated by traditional Chinese medicine

Table 2 The therapeutic effect of the intercellular space, nuclear membrane and plasmacyte

Ultrastructural changes	Differentiation	Injured	Recovery	Markedly	Effective	Ineffective	Total effective

The intercellular space of mucosal epithelial cells widened	PXG	14 (87.5)	2	6	3	3	78.6
	GBG	12 (80.0)	2	5	3	2	83.3
The intercellular space of antral mucous cells widened	PXG	13 (81.3)	4	5	2	2	84.6
	GBG	13 (86.7)	3	6	3	1	92.3
The nuclear membrane of the mucosal epithelial cells and the antral mucous cells folded and sank in	PXG	10 (62.5)	3	3	2	2	80.0
	GBG	10 (66.7)	2	4	3	1	90.0
The rER in the plasmacyte enlarged	PXG	6 (37.5)a	1	3	0	2	66.7
