ABSTRACT Background and Aims The Endoscopic Pressure Study Integrated System (EPSIS) is a novel endoscopic tool to assess lower esophageal sphincter (LES) function by monitoring intragastric pressure (IGP) through insufflation. While previous studies have confirmed its diagnostic utility for LES dysfunction‐related disorders such as gastroesophageal ...

PGC TagSNP and its interaction with H. pylori and relation with gene expression in susceptibility to gastric carcinogenesis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Pepsinogen C (PGC) plays an important role in sustaining the cellular differentiation during the process of gastric carcinogenesis. This study aimed to assess the role of PGC tagSNPs and their interactions with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)

ABSTRACT Objectives Approximately 10%–30% patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) develop gastric neoplasms (GNs). Although recent reports have suggested the effectiveness of gel‐immersion endoscopic mucosal resection (GI‐EMR) for FAP‐associated GNs, given its simplicity and safety, treatment outcomes for such lesions have not been evaluated.

Significance of Serum Pepsinogens in Atrophic Gastritis
Background: Chronic atrophic gastritis is a precancerous lesion. A commonly used test for the diagnosis of chronic atrophic gastritis, gastric endoscopy with biopsy collection, and a good serological test would be best include low levels of pepsinogen I (
