Abstract:
Chronic gastritis is a common gastrointestinal disorder with variable clinical presentations and the accuracy of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy in reflecting histopathological changes remains inconsistent. Therefore, it is of interest to compare endoscopic findings with histopathological grading in 189 adult patients with chronic gastritis. The most frequent endoscopic finding was erythematous gastritis, followed by erosive and nodular changes, while histopathology revealed mild to severe chronic gastritis. Therefore, this study advances knowledge by providing valuable insights into the correlation between endoscopic and histopathological findings, which could improve diagnostic accuracy and management of chronic gastritis.

Few clinical manifestations differentiate gastric ulcers from duodenal ulcers. Distinctions in the location, timing, and pain relief are crucial for healthcare providers in differentiating between gastric and duodenal ulcers during clinical assessments.

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-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...
