Metaplastic chronic atrophic gastritis (MCAG) is a precancerous lesion. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), its core pathogenesis is considered to be insufficient yang transforming into
qi
and excessive
yin
forming into substance. Based on years of clinical and theoretical research, Professor ZHANG Xuezhi proposed the method of “strengthening earth and smoothing the middle” for the treatment of MCAG. Taking "
yang
transforming into
qi
and
yin
forming substance" as the conceptual entry point to explore the underlying mechanism, strengthening earth aims to tonify the healthy
qi
of the spleen and stomach and restore their transport and transformation functions, corresponding to "
yang
transforming into
qi
”. Smoothing the middle, by unblocking
qi
movement, addresses the pathological accumulation of
yin
, corresponding to “
yin
forming substance”. This treatment has demonstrated remarkable clinical efficacy and provides a novel approach for the management of MCAG.
