Is gastric intestinal metaplasia a risk factor for colorectal neoplasms?
Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2021 Colorectal cancers are one of the most common types of cancer. Gastric intestinal metaplasia is considered a precancerous lesion that can progress into gastric cancer.

Alcohol consumption and the risk of gastric intestinal metaplasia in a U.S. Veterans population [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Background Chronic alcohol use is a risk factor for non-cardia gastric adenocarcinoma. However, it is less well understood whether alcohol use is a risk factor for premalignant mucosal changes, namely gastric intestinal metaplasia.

Alimentary factors in the development of gastric intestinal metaplasia in functional dyspeptic patients [PDF]
Arquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2012 CONTEXT: Intestinal metaplasia of the stomach is a lesion in which metaplasia of gastric epithelial cells occurs for an intestinal phenotype. Gastric intestinal metaplasia is a lesion associated with an increase in the risk of gastric carcinoma ...

Intestinal metaplasia of the stomach. A status report [PDF]
Cancer, 1994 Intestinal metaplasia in the stomach increases the risk of gastric cancer, and the increased risk is proportional to the extent of the metaplasia. This risk could be generated by one or more mechanisms: (1) the metaplastic tissue is an early step in a multistep induction process; (2) the metaplastic tissue is an epigenetic change that raises the pH of ...

TFF3 initiates gastric intestinal metaplasia by activating JAK2 and STAT3 under high salt conditions [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe mechanism underlying the role of trefoil factor family 3 (TFF3) in intestinal metaplasia remains unclear. This study reveals the molecular mechanism by which TFF3, in the process of gastric mucosal epithelial cell intestinal metaplasia (IM) induced ...

Towards deep-learning based detection and quantification of intestinal metaplasia on digitized gastric biopsies: a multi-expert comparative study [PDF]
Scientific ReportsCurrent gastric cancer (GCa) risk systems are prone to errors since they evaluate a visual estimation of intestinal metaplasia percentages in histopathology images of gastric mucosa to assign a risk.
