Background And Study Aims:
It has been suggested that the combined detection of multiple serum biomarkers can effectively screen out the high-risk population of chronic atrophic gastritis in the general population. Therefore, it is necessary to establish an effective predictive model of chronic atrophic gastritis.
Patients And Methods:
Serum biopsies were assessed using five stomach-specific circulating biomarkers pepsinogen I (PGI), PGII, PGI/II ratio, anti- H. pylori antibody, and gastrin-17 (G-17) to identify high-risk individuals and evaluate the risk of developing chronic atrophic gastritis.
Results:
In the cross-sectional analysis, PGII, the PG ratio, G17, anti- H. pylori IgG were positively associated with the presence of chronic atrophic gastritis, and combined prediction of the five biomarkers was more accurate than single-factor prediction ((0.692 vs 0.54(PG1), 0.604 (PGⅡ), 0.616(PGI/II ratio), 0.629(G-17)).
Conclusion:
The combination of PGI, PGII, the PGI/II ratio, G17, and anti-H. pylori antibodies for serological analysis are helpful to screen chronic atrophic gastritis high-risk subjects from the general population and recommend that these people carry out further endoscopy and biopsy.

01:27Gastritis-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,...
01:17Gastritis-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...

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...
