Association of Serum Pepsinogens With Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Risk: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis [PDF]
BackgroundSerum pepsinogens are serological biomarkers of gastric atrophy, and the latter is a risk factor for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, the association of serum pepsinogens with ESCC risk remains unclear. This systematic review

Association of serum pepsinogens and gastrin-17 with Helicobacter pylori infection assessed by urea breath test [PDF]
BackgroundAssociation of gastric atrophy or cancer with levels of serum pepsinogens, gastrin-17 and anti-Helicobacter pylori IgG antibody have been extensively studied. However, the association of serum pepsinogen and gastrin-17 with H.

Assessment of Serum Pepsinogens with and without Co-Testing with Gastrin-17 in Gastric Cancer Risk Assessment—Results from the GISTAR Pilot Study [PDF]
Introduction––Serum pepsinogen tests for gastric cancer screening have been debated for decades. We assessed the performance of two pepsinogen assays with or without gastrin-17 for the detection of different precancerous lesions alone or as a composite ...

Significance of Serum Pepsinogens as a Biomarker for Gastric Cancer and Atrophic Gastritis Screening: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
BackgroundHuman pepsinogens are considered promising serological biomarkers for the screening of atrophic gastritis (AG) and gastric cancer (GC). However, there has been controversy in the literature with respect to the validity of serum pepsinogen (SPG)

The Role of Serum Pepsinogen Tests for Detecting Gastric Cancer Between Sexes and Among Age Groups [PDF]
Gastric cancer (GC) remains a significant concern worldwide, with a very high incidence in Japan, South Korea, and China. Early diagnosis of GC is important for reducing its mortality; to achieve this, screening of individuals at a high risk for ...

Serum pepsinogens and risk of esophageal squamous dysplasia. [PDF]
AbstractPepsinogens are a class of endopeptidases that are secreted by the gastric epithelium and released into the circulation. Low serum pepsinogen I (PGI) and low serum pepsinogen I/pepsinogen II ratio (PGI/II ratio) are markers of gastric fundic atrophy, and have recently been shown to be associated with increased risk of esophageal squamous cell ...

Monitoring the follow-up of autoimmune chronic atrophic gastritis using parietal cell antibodies and markers of gastric function [PDF]
Increased interest in the pathogenesis and the evolution of autoimmune chronic atrophic gastritis (A-CAG) has led to the search for serological markers that can be used to detect changes in the gastric mucosa at an early stage and to monitor the course ...
