Abstract:
We examined: 1 group--16 children with chronic gastritis (CG) and autoimmune thyroiditis (AT); 2 group--41 children with functional thyroidal pathologies; 3 group--23 children with CG only. The average age in all groups was 11.17 +/- 2.98. HP (68%) was revealed equally frequently in all the groups. Antibodies to H+/K(+)-ATPase of parietal cells were revealed in the first and second groups only (31-36%), p < 0.05 as compared to the third group. CG of the stomach body was more frequently revealed in the first group using endoscopic and histological tests. The second group had more frequent and more apparent lesions of the antral part. Thus, in case of concomitant diseases of the thyroid gland CG has an autoimmune nature of an inflammation of the mucous coat of the stomach.

Gastritis-I: Introduction and Types
Acute gastritis presents as a sudden inflammation triggered by various stressors to the stomach lining, such as exposure to corrosive agents, local irritants like aspirin and other NSAIDs, alcohol consumption, radiation therapy, physical trauma, severe burns, sepsis,...
Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology
In acute gastritis, the gastric mucosa becomes swollen and red and undergoes superficial erosion. Superficial ulceration may lead to bleeding.
In chronic gastritis, persistent or repeated insults lead to chronic inflammatory changes and, eventually, thinning or atrophy of the gastric tissue.
Gastritis can stem from various causes, each...
Gastritis III: Clinical Manifestations and Management
Clinical manifestations of acute gastritis
The patient with acute gastritis may have a rapid onset of symptoms, such as epigastric pain or discomfort, dyspepsia, anorexia, hiccups, or nausea and vomiting, which can last from a few hours to a few days. Erosive or hemorrhagic gastritis may cause bleeding, which may manifest as blood in vomit or as...
