Biopsy specimens have been taken from five standard sites in the stomach and from the duodenal bulb in order to investigate the association of gastritis and duodenitis with duodenal ulcer. Twenty patients with chronic duodenal ulcer were investigated in this manner and in addition had gastric secretion tests and a radio-immune assay of serum gastrin under differing conditions. The patients were...

The gastric cancer risk varies based on the etiology and severity of gastritis, which depends a history Helicobacter pylori infection secretory capacity stomach. Type A gastritis is associated with reverse atrophy corpus type B progressive extending from antrum to corpus. Diffuse or spotty redness in together high serum pepsinogen (PG) II levels low PG I/II ratio are observed patients H. when s...

Atrophic gastritis is understood as a progressive inflammatory process of the gastric mucosa, characterized by loss glands. Helicobacter pylori infection (HP) and autoimmune are recognized most common etiological factors causing atrophic gastritis. The results retrospective analysis prevalence chronic associated with H. in patients non-cardiac cancer Bukhara city were described. In addition, an...

Helicobacter pylori-induced gastritis is a risk factor for developing gastric pathologies. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of a multidrug-resistant H. pylori strain isolated from a chronic gastritis patient in Mexico City, Mexico. Nonvirulent VacA and cag-pathogenicity island (PAI) genotypes were found, but the presence of a potential mobilizable plasmid carrying an IS605 element i...

AIM To determine whether the pattern of involvement of the gastric mucosa in lymphocytic gastritis is predictive of the presence or absence of duodenal pathology. METHODS 50 cases (M:F, 26:24; median age 57 years) diagnosed as lymphocytic gastritis between 1986 and 1998 with concurrent duodenal (D2) biopsies were identified from a computer search of the pathology records and validated by coun...

Accepted for publication 8 December 1993 Abstract To investigate whether the occurrence of chronic gastritis (and Helicobacter pyloni acquisition) has changed in Finland in the past 15 years, the prevalence rates of chronic gastritis in biopsy specimens in consecutive series of outpatients (aged 20 or more) who had undergone diagnostic upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in 1977 (702 patients), 19...

we studied the relationship between gastroduodenal inflammation and the presence of campylobaeter pylori from biopsy specimens of the gastric mucosa in 91 patients with gastritis with or without ulcers and 9 controls, healthy or suffering from other diseases. 68 of the patients were positive for the presence of c. pylori in their gastric mucosa. c. pylori was confirmed bacteriohistologically in...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study is evaluating the correlation of postprandial fullness with chronic gastritis or rapid inflow of gastric content into duodenum, based on double-contrast barium X-ray imaging. METHODS 253 healthy subjects who underwent upper gastrointestinal barium X-ray examination were analyzed. Chronic gastritis was judged from mucosal atrophy and hypertrophic thickened fold...

BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori infection has recently been incriminated in the pathogenesis of gastric carcinoma and chronic atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia are considered to be precursors of this condition. Although the incidence of Helicobacter pylori infection in India is high that of gastric carcinoma is low. We, therefore, decided to examine the association between Helicobacte...

Helicobacter pylori (HP) is associated with chronic gastritis and gastric cancer, and more than half of the world's population is chronically infected. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate whether an irregular meal pattern is associated with increased risk of gastritis and HP infection. The study involved 323 subjects, divided into three groups as follows: subjects with HP inf...
