In 2013, the Japan Gastroenterological Endoscopy Society introduced the Kyoto classification of gastritis, which is useful to predict Helicobacter pylori infection based exclusively on endoscopic findings. Based on the Kyoto...
Gastritis is common worldwide. The combination of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection with background gastritis, including atrophic gastritis or intestinal metaplasia is implicated as an important etiopathogenetic contributor to gastric...
Recent advances in endoscopic technology, including high-definition and image-enhanced endoscopy such as narrow-band imaging have facilitated close observation and detailed imaging of the gastric mucosa. Currently, endoscopy is performed in...
The gastric cancer risk varies based on the etiology and severity of gastritis, which depends on a history of Helicobacter pylori infection and the secretory capacity of the stomach. Type...
Background/Aims: Compared with other regimens, concomitant therapy (CT) used as a first-line regimen for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is associated with higher eradication rates. We compared the efficacy of...
Autoimmune gastritis (AIG), a chronic inflammatory disease occurs as a result of a complex interaction between host-related and environmental factors. AIG may progress to severe atrophic gastritis secondary autoimmune-mediated parietal...
Gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is the most common type of extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Endoscopic findings are nonspecific and variable; therefore, differentiation of this malignancy from early gastric cancer...
Background/Aims: Standard triple therapy (STT; proton pump inhibitor [PPI]+clarithromycin+amoxicillin) used for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication has shown low treatment success rates in recent years, which is most likely attributable...
