[Lipid peroxidation and antioxidant system in treatment dynamics of patients with chronic gastritis]
Abstract:
POL (peroxidation of lipids) processes in GMM (gastric mucous membrane) and blood have been studied in 107 CG (chronic gastritis) patients in relation to gastritis activity and GMM contamination with H. Pylori. The author studied also treatment dynamics, with vitamin E being additionally prescribed. Concentration of primary POLs (diene, oxodiene, triene and tetraene conjugates) in GMM and secondary POLs (malonic dialdehyde) in blood have been determined along with the determination of general blood AOA (antioxidation activity) and vitamin E concentration in blood by spectrophotometry. A disbalance has been found between POL processes and AO protection, which was expressed in antioxidant undersupply, excessive peroxidation caused by primary and final POLs in GMM and blood of CG patients. A prolonged persistence of H. pylori in GMM is treated as the factor able to cause breakage of GMM epithelial biomembrane structure with consequent disorganizing its albumin-lipid complexes and developing excessive peroxidation. A therapeutical scheme (omeprazole, metronidazole, amoxicilline) obtained a further pathogenetic substantiation of B type CG patient treatment with additional antioxidant vitamin E use at the dosage of 300 mg/day for three weeks.

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...
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...
Peptic Ulcer Disease IV: Management
The therapeutic approach involves ensuring adequate rest, implementing drug therapy, promoting smoking cessation, making dietary modifications, and emphasizing long-term follow-up care.
Pharmacological management
The prevailing therapy for peptic ulcers involves a combination of managing the patient's current medication...
