Background: Chronic gastritis is a chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa, accompanied by changes in mucosal histology with or without Helicobacter pylori infection. Changes in the gastric mucosa include gastric mucosal atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, and epithelial dysplasia. Purposes: This study aims to determine the microscopic appearance of the mucosa in chronic gastritis patients based on standard histopathological criteria, which include gland atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia with or without Helicobacter pylori infection at Pertamina Central Hospital Jakarta period 2018 - 2019. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in a cross-sectional study from March 15 to March 25, 2020. Results: This study reported 303 cases of active chronic gastritis (38.4%) out of 790 total samples that met the inclusion criteria. Microscopic changes of the mucosa were found in the form of atrophy of the mucous glands in 254 cases (32.2%), intestinal metaplasia in 25 cases (3.2%), and epithelial dysplasia cases in 23 cases (2.9%). Conclusion: the proportion of active chronic gastritis patients found in this study was helicobacter pylori infection is more dominantly found in patients with active chronic gastritis than in non-active chronic gastritis. The description of atrophic glands in chronic gastritis patients was more dominant than parameters based on intestinal metaplasia and epithelial dysplasia. It was a finding of intestinal metaplasia compared to all cases showing risk factors that require further clinical observation (follow-up) to detect potential malignancies earlier so that it is necessary to do more preventive action.

The aim is to study the effect of Helicobacter pylori infection on risk of developing gastroesophageal reflux disease. Materials and methods - cross-sectional observational study of 1007 patients with dyspepsia syndrome who underwent videoesophagogastroduodenoscopy with biopsy and histological examination of biopsy specimens of the gastric mucosa by OLGA-system. The age, gender, overweight, cigarette smoking, presence of Helicobacter pylori infection and gastritis stage were assessed. Results - the study showed a significant decrease in the incidence of gastroesophageal reflux disease in patients with positive H. Pylori status by 4% (RR 0,68; 95% CI, 0.49-0.94, p=0,041). The risk of developing gastroesophageal reflux disease significantly higher in overweight (RR 2,62; 95% CI 2,0-3,56; р<0,001) men (RR 1,76; 95% CI 1,33-2,32; р=0,0046) who smoked cigarettes (RR 3,23; 95% CI 2,45-4,24; р<0,001) and was not associated with the patient’s age and the stage of gastritis (р>0,05). Conclusion - a significant reduction in the frequency and risk of developing gastroesophageal reflux disease in patients with Helicobacter pylori infection is demonstrated.

Introduction We evaluated the effect of Helicobacter pylori (HP) eradication on p53, cyclin D1 expression, and cell proliferation in gastric mucosa. Materials and Methods We assessed p53, cyclin D1, and ki67 immunoexpression in gastric mucosa from 31 HP chronic gastritis patients and 12 controls. Reassessment was performed 6 months after successful HP eradication. Results Successful eradication resulted in significant decrease of p53 (1.53 ± 0.16 vs 0.83 ± 0.19, P = 0.01) and ki67 (9.84 ± 0.96 vs 4.77 ± 0.27, P < 0.001) staining in the antrum. Similarly, p53 immunoreactivity significantly decreased in the corpus (1.27 ± 0.20 vs 0.46 ± 0.15, P = 0.02), while there was a trend for decreased corpus cyclin D1 and ki67 expression (0.17 ± 0.07 vs 0.0, P = 0.08 and 8.71 ± 1.24 vs 5.85 ± 0.54, P = 0.09, respectively). Importantly, after successful HP eradication, the immunoreactivity of the studied parameters was similar to that of controls. Conclusion Successful HP infection eradication restores p53, cyclin D1, and ki67 immunoreactivity in the gastric mucosa to the level of controls.

Background: Intestinal metaplasia is a precancerous lesion. Helicobacter pylori is identified as an important cause of gastric cancer. This study is aimed at assessing the intestinal metaplasia and Helicobacter pylori infection and their relation in patients with chronic gastritis. Patients and methods: Study includes 75 patients with chronic gastritis diagnosed by clinical, endoscopic and histopathological criteria. Intestinal metaplasia is diagnosed by HE stain. Hp infection is tested by CLO-test from Viet A Ltd. Results: Hp infecton rate in this study is 66.67% and is highest in patients with antral gastritis. Intestinal metaplasia is found in 29.33% of patients with chronic gastritis with the predominance of complete intestinal metaplasia. The rate of intestinal metaplasia is the highest in the group with chronic atrophic gastritis. There is a significant relationship between intestinal metaplasia and Hp ìnfection. Conclusion: Hp and intestinal metaplasia are found at significant rates in chronic gastritis. The rate of intestinal metaplasia is clearly higher in the group with Hp-positive chronic gastritis.

Background: More than half of the world’s population is infected with Helicobacter pylori, the primary cause of chronic gastritis. Chronic gastritis is associated with peptic ulcer and in advanced stages with an increased risk of developing gastric adenocarcinoma. The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection in dyspeptic patients and its relationship with gastroduodenal pathologies using gastric biopsy histology.Methods: A cross sectional prospective study was conducted from 1st January 2018 to 30th June 2019. It included out-patients and in-patients, presenting with dyspeptic symptoms and undergoing upper GI Endoscopy, at S. Nijalingappa Medical College and HSK hospital, Bagalkot, Karnataka, India. Endoscopic impressions were noted. In case of any abnormal findings on upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, endoscopic biopsy was obtained. Histopathological assessment of gastric mucosa was done after staining with H and E stain and Giemsa stain. The histopathological diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection in biopsy specimen will be mainly done using the Modified Giemsa stain.Results: 105 patients with dyspepsia were studied in total. Out of which, 44 patients (41.9%) were detected positive for Helicobacter pylori infection.Conclusions: The burden of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients with dyspepsia was high. Early diagnosis and eradication of Helicobacter pylori not only improves symptoms but also help to prevent complications associated with Helicobacter pylori infections.

Objective. To evaluate the effect of the genetic characteristics of Helicobacter pylori on the nature of pathomorphological disorders in the gastric mucosa in chronic Hp-associated gastritis in young people. Material and methods. Forty-two adults (25 men and 17 women) aged 19 to 40 years with Hp-associated chronic gastritis were examined. The severity and activity of inflammation, as well as the presence of atrophy and intestinal metaplasia were determined in gastrobioptates. Genetic typing of Hp was performed for 16 pathogenicity factors of infect: CagA, CagM, CagT, CagH, CagC, CagF, CagE, VacAs1 and As2, IceA, Baba; HpaA; OipA, AlpB; UreB and UreI using polymerase chain reaction. Results. Pathogenic Hp strains were detected in 59.5 % of patients. Factors of adhesion HpaA (83.3 %), OipA (81 %), and AlpB (83.3 %) were identified with the highest frequency. In 57.1 % of cases, cytotoxin of the Cag group was detected, and 54.8 % of patients had a positive CagA-status. The VacA S1 allele was registered in 73.8 %, VacA S2 in 4.8 %, IceA in 38.1 %, and BabA in 45.2 % of cases. The presence of Hp strains in the gastric mucosa, which have three or more pathogenicity island genes, significantly increases the severity and activity of the inflammatory process, revealing signs of moderate atrophy of the digestive tract and intestinal metaplasia. Conclusions. Colonization of the gastric mucosa in young patients with Hp-associated chronic gastritis by highly pathogenic Hp strains leads to severe violations of its morphology.
