Are the Serum Biomarkers Pepsinogen I and II Good Predictors for the Detection of Subjects with Atrophic Gastritis in Areas that have Different Gastric Cancer Incidence. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Northern Iran (Ardabil) is characterized by a high gastric cancer (GC) rate, whereas Southern Iran (Kerman and Yazd) has a low GC rate. The aim of this study is to verify the potential for pepsinogen I and II to detect atrophic gastritis ...

Olmesartan‐induced gastritis with no lower gastrointestinal symptoms: A case report
Abstract A 74‐year‐old man with decreased appetite, weight, and heartburn was referred to our hospital. His medications included olmesartan. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed antral‐dominant erosive gastritis and nodular mucosa. A gastric biopsy revealed inflammatory cell infiltration.

Usefulness of Serum Pepsinogen Levels as a Screening Test For Atrophic Gastritis and Gastric Cancer
Objective: The purpose of our study was to research the applicability of measuring serum pepsinogen I (PG I) and PG I/pepsinogen II (PG II) ratios as screening tests for atrophic gastritis, which is the most important predisposition for stomach cancer.

Helicobacter pylori: types of diseases, diagnosis, treatment and causes of therapeutic failure [PDF]
Acute upper gastrointestinal lesions have a multifactorial etiology but, regardless of the cause, they are related to mucosal barrier destruction. Since Helicobacter pylori induces a superficial chronic gastritis with the infiltration of neutrophils in ...

ABSTRACT Objectives A ‘gray color sign’ (GCS) is a new endoscopic feature of fundic gland polyp associated with proton pump inhibitor (PPI‐FGP). Here, we compare the ability of texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) to white light imaging (WLI) with regard to the detection of GCS. Methods In this prospective study, 19 consecutive patients with PPI‐

Current Status of Gastric Cancer Screening and Future Perspectives
ABSTRACT Gastric cancer (GC) remains a major global health concern, particularly in East Asia, Central Asia, and Eastern Europe, where its incidence and mortality rates are high. Helicobacter pylori infection is the primary cause of GC and leads to carcinogenic progression from nonatrophic gastritis to cancer.

ABSTRACT Introduction Anti‐reflux mucosectomy (ARMS) and anti‐reflux mucosal ablation (ARMA) are novel endoscopic treatments for proton pump inhibitor or potassium‐competitive acid blocker‐refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease. These procedures induce scarring of the artificial ulcer at the gastric cardia, which tightens the enlarged cardiac ...

ABSTRACT Objective Gel‐immersion endoscopic injection sclerotherapy (GI‐EIS) addresses the technical challenges in intravariceal injection for esophageal varices (EVs). However, gel accumulation may obscure the variceal morphology. Thus, we developed GI‐EIS under texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI) and evaluated its effectiveness.

Association of IL-1B+3954 and IL-1RN Polymorphisms in Chronic Gastritis and Peptic Ulcer
Background: Helicobacter pylori are the main cause of chronic inflammation and peptic ulcer. We aimed to determine if IL-1B+3954 and IL-1RN polymorphisms are associated with the risk of chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer in Iranian population. Methods:
