Serum Pepsinogen I(Pgi) in Children With Gastritis 64

Endoscopic gastritis, serum pepsinogen assay, and Helicobacter pylori infection

Endoscopic findings of the background gastric mucosa are important in the Helicobacter pylori-seroprevalent population. It is strongly correlated not only with the risk of gastric cancer, but also with the excretion ability of gastric mucosa cells. In noninfected subjects, common endoscopic findings are regular arrangement of collecting venules, chronic superficial gastritis, and erosive gastri...

Serum gastrin 17, pepsinogen I and pepsinogen II in atrophic gastritis patients living in North-East of Iran

BACKGROUND Gastric carcinoma is the second most common cause of cancer-related death in Iran. It is well-known that atrophic gastritis is a major risk factor for gastric cancer, which leads to variations in the serum levels of gastrin 17 (G-17), pepsinogen I (P-I), and pepsinogen II (P-II). The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of these serum biomarkers in the early d...

Serum levels of pepsinogen I, pepsinogen II, and gastrin-17 in the course of Helicobacter pylori gastritis in pediatrics.

To the Editors: as a comment to the editorial of Oderda et al: In an interesting editorial in this issue of the journal, Oderda et al (1) review which tests may be used to diagnose Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in children. Some are invasive (i.e. upper gastro-intestinal endoscopy and multiple gastric biopsies), and some are non invasive (i.e. serology, C-urea breath test and stool antigen de...
