Molecular Alterations in Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia [PDF]
Gastric cancer (GC) remains one of the most common causes of mortality worldwide. Intestinal metaplasia (IM) is one of the preneoplastic gastric lesions and is considered an essential predisposing factor in GC development. Here we present a review of recent most relevant papers to summarize major findings on the molecular alterations in gastric IM. The

The subtleties of intestinal metaplasia [PDF]
See article on page 73 Even if its incidence has decreased due to the influence of environmental and nutritional factors, gastric carcinoma remains a major concern because of its very poor prognosis. Screening for precancerous conditions, including intestinal metaplasia, is one method of improving the prognosis of gastric carcinoma. Nevertheless, the

Gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM), which denotes conversion of gastric mucosa into an intestinal phenotype, can occur in all regions of the stomach, including cardiac, fundic, and pyloric mucosa. Since the earliest description of GIM, its association with gastric cancer of the differentiated (intestinal) type has been a well-recognized concern.
