Purpose: To explore the effect of the clinical treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis Method: 70 patients with chronic atrophic gastritis treated in our hospital from October 2017 to November 2018 were selected and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group with 35 patients in each group. The control group received standard triad treatment with gastroprokinetic drug orally. On the basis of the control group, patients in the observation group received Xianlu Pazhu Wan. The treatment efficiency, eradication rate of helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), incidence of adverse effects and length of stay were compared between the two groups. Result: Compared with the control group, patients in the observation group had a higher treatment efficiency, higher H. pylori eradication rate, lower incidence of adverse effects, and shorter length of stay with statistical significance (P< 0.05). Conclusion: In the clinical treatment of patients with chronic atrophic gastritis, adding Xianlu Pazhu Wan into the basic medication plan can have a better treatment efficiency, reduce the incidence of adverse effects, and shorten the length of stay. Therefore, Xianlu Pazhu Wan should be promoted in the practice.

Abstract Background and Aim: Chronic atrophic gastritis is a common gastric disease which shows a positive correlation with the occurrence of gastric cancer. Traditional chinese medicines have been used in the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis. There is no solid evidence for the curative effects of traditional chinese medicines. This study aimed to investigate the clinical efficacy of Weifuchun tablets on patients with chronic atrophic gastritis. Methods 97 patients of chronic atrophic gastritis without current H. pylori infection were divided into two groups: an experiment group treated with Weifuchun and a control group treated with teprenone and folic acid for six months. Pathological examination of gastric biopsies and clinical symptoms assessment were performed for all patients before and after treatments. Primary outcome was the pathological response rate in each group evaluated by changes of histological scores.Secondary outcome was the clinical symptom scores. Results Twenty four patients in the Weifuchun group and twenty eight patients in the control group completed the study. The pathological response rates for atrophy and intestinal metaplasia were 66.7% and 45.8% in the Weifuchun group and 66.7% and 42.9% in the folic acid group, respectively, without statistical significance between groups.Clinical symptoms failed to improve after treatments in either group. Conclusions Weifuchun is effective to improve pathological changes of chronic atrophic gastritis in patients without current H. pylori infection. Monotherapy of Weifuchun had a similar efficacy to the combined therapy by teprenone and folic acid in the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis.

Background & Aims: Previous genome-wide association studies showed that genetic polymorphisms in toll-like receptor 1 (TLR1) and protein kinase AMP-activated alpha 1 catalytic subunit (PRKAA1) genes were associated with gastric cancer (GC) or increased Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection susceptibility. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between TLR1 and PRKAA1 genes polymorphisms and H.pylori infection, atrophic gastritis (AG) or GC in the European population.Methods: Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were analysed in 511 controls, 340 AG patients and 327 GC patients. TLR1 C>T (rs4833095) and PRKAA1 C>T (rs13361707) were genotyped by the real-time polymerase chain reaction. H. pylori status was determined by testing for anti-H. pylori IgG antibodies in the serum.Results: The study included 697 (59.2%) H. pylori positive and 481 (40.8%) H. pylori negative cases. We observed similar distribution of TLR1 and PRKAA1 alleles and genotypes in H. pylori positive and negative cases. TLR1 and PRKAA1 SNPs were not linked with the risk of AG. TC genotype of TLR1 gene was more prevalent in GC patients compared to the control group (29.7% and 22.3% respectively, p=0.002). Carriers of TC genotype had a higher risk of GC (aOR=1.89, 95% CI: 1.26–2.83, p=0.002). A similar association was observed in a dominant inheritance model for TLR1 gene SNP, where comparison of CC+TC vs. TT genotypes showed an increased risk of GC (aOR=1.86, 95% CI: 1.26–2.75, p=0.002). No association between genetic polymorphism in PRKAA1 gene and GC was observed.Conclusions: TLR1 rs4833095 SNP was associated with an increased risk of GC in a European population, while PRKAA1 rs13361707 genetic variant was not linked with GC. Both genetic polymorphisms were not associated with H. pylori infection susceptibility or the risk of AG.

Abstract Background: Zuojin Pill (ZJP), a famous Chinese medicinal formula, widely accepted for treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) in China. This study aimed to explore the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of ZJP in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) - induced chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) in vivo and in vitro. Methods: CAG rat model was induced by H. pylori. ZJP (0.63, 1.26, and 2.52 g/kg, respectively) was administered orally for four weeks. Therapeutic effects of ZJP were identified by H&E staining and serum indices. In addition, cell viability, morphology and proliferation were detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK8) and high-content screening assay (HCS), respectively. Moreover, relative mRNA expression and protein expression related to JMJD2B/COX-2/VEGF axis was detected to investigate the potential mechanisms of ZJP in CAG. Results: Results showed the symptoms (weight loss and gastric mucosa damage) of CAG were alleviated, and the contents of TNF-α in serum was markedly decreased after treating with ZJP. Moreover, cell viability, proliferation and morphology changes of GES-1 cells were ameliorated by ZJP intervention. In addition, proinflammatory genes and JMJD2B/COX-2/VEGF axis related genes were suppressed by ZJP administration in vitro and in vivo. Meanwhile, immunohistochemistry (IHC) and western blot confirmed down-regulation of these genes by ZJP intervention. Conclusion: ZJP treatment can alleviate gastric mucosal damage induced by H. pylori via JMJD2B/COX-2/VEGF axis.

METHODS: A total of 66 patients with uterine fibroids admitted to our hospital between April 2018 and January 2019 were selected as subjects. According to the two different treatment methods, patients were divided equally. The observation group and the control group, each group of 33 people. The oxytocin drug treatment was medicated to the control group, and the prostaglandin tromethamine combined with mifepristone was medicated to the observation group. The treatment effect, adverse reaction, operation, and uterine muscle before and after surgery were observed in these two groups. Tumor tissue progesterone receptor and estrogen receptor levels. Results: The clinical treatment effect of the observation group was 93.94%, and the clinical treatment effect of the control group was 60.61%. The clinical treatment effect of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group; also the incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group in terms of rash, fatigue, nausea and vomiting was much lower than the control group, and could observe a significant difference. Finally in observation group, the amount of intraoperative blood loss, operation time and hospitalization time were better than those of the control group. The progesterone receptor and estrogen receptor levels in the uterine fibroid tissue after surgery should also be better than the control group, it is worth to make further comparison. Conclusion: Carprostol tromethamine combined with mifepristone is effective in the treatment of uterine fibroids and can be further developed.

Objective: To compare curative effect and safety of omeprazole under different treatment courses in treatment of children with peptic ulcer (PU, diameter ≤1.0cm) and helicobacter pylori (HP) infection and its influence on inflammatory cytokines. Methods: The study was a randomized controlled study and conducted at Baoding children’s hospital from June 2015 to June 2018. In this study 100 PU children with positive HP were chosen and classified into two groups at random. The 58 cases in the observation group were given omeprazole + amoxicillin + clarithromycin, and the antibiotics were not used two weeks later. Then, omeprazole was used to treat for two weeks. 42 cases in the control group were given omeprazole + amoxicillin + clarithromycin for two weeks. Curative effect, HP eradication rate, clinical symptoms, incidence of adverse reactions, level of serum inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) and level of tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) in two groups were compared. Results: Total effective rate, HP eradication rate and clinical symptom relief of observation group were better than those of control group, and the differences showed statistical significance (P<0.05). The differences of two groups in the incidence of adverse reactions had no statistical significance (P<0.05). Serum IL-6 level and TNF-a level of observation group were significantly lower than those of control group and before the treatment, and the differences had statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion: The application of omeprazole in treatment of PU patients with positive HP for four weeks can significantly improve PU cure rate and HP eradication rate, relieve clinical symptoms and reduce inflammatory response, so it deserves to be promoted clinically. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.36.7.3048 How to cite this:Zhang S, Zhang Y, Dong Q, Gu F.

Background/aim To use liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) to identify endogenous differential metabolites in the urine of rats with chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG). Materials and methods Methylnitronitrosoguanidine (MNNG) was used to produce a CAG model in Wistar rats, and HE staining was used to determine the pathological model. LC-MS was used to detect the differential metabolic profiles in rat urine. Diversified analysis was performed by the statistical method. Results Compared with the control group, the model group had 68 differential metabolites, 25 that were upregulated and 43 that were downregulated. The main metabolic pathways were D-glutamine and D-glutamic acid metabolism, histidine metabolism and purine metabolism. Conclusion By searching for differential metabolites and metabolic pathways in the urine of CAG rats, this study provides effective experimental data for the pathogenesis and clinical diagnosis of CAG.

Background: The purpose of the study was to see whether chronic alcohol abuse had any effect on the gastric mucosa in a population already affected by a high prevalence of Helicobacter pylori.Methods: 35 males with a history of chronic alcohol abuse were compared with 35 males who were abstinent or social drinkers. All subjects had complaints of dyspepsia. All subjects underwent endoscopy and targeted biopsies were taken from three specific sites in the stomach, namely body, antrum and incisura. Biopsies were studied to look for changes of atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia. The presence or absences of H. pylori on the tissue biopsy were also recorded.Results: Atrophic gastritis were only assessable in 24 alcoholic patients and 21 non-alcoholic patients due to the inadequacy of the depth of the biopsy. AG were found to be equally distributed in both the groups. 23 (64.9%) patients in the alcoholic group and 19(54.5%) in the control group had AG (OR-1.54, p=0.47). Intestinal metaplasia was seen in 10 (28.5%) alcoholic group and 12 (34.2) in the control group (OR-0.65, p=0.45). Of the 42 subjects detected to have AG, 16 (38.1%) had IM. However, IM were always associated with AG. In addition, H. pylori were not seen to be different in the two groups. H. pylori were positive in 18 (51.4%) alcoholic and14 (40%) non-alcoholic patients (p=0.33).Conclusions: Chronic alcohol abuse doesn’t appear to have any major impact on the gastric mucosa in terms of producing premalignant lesions such as atrophic gastritis or intestinal metaplasia or enhancing the prevalence of H. pylori.

Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and adverse effects of hybrid regime in patients with chronic gastritis patients H.pylori positive. Subjects and methods: A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted on 189 chronic gastritis patients at Cho Ray Hospital, from 25/09/2013 to 29/07/2014. All patients underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and biopsy to perform CLO Test and analyse histo-pathological. 92 patients H.pylori with CLO test positive were enrolled in the therapy with hybrid therapy RA-RACM. Results: 92 patients with positive H.pylori (36 males and 56 females), the mean age of population study was 41.65 ± 11.69. The percentage of H.pylori infection was 48.7. The eradication rate of H.pylori was 88.0%. In general, comparison of before and after eradication, the prevalence of epigastric pain was 89.1% vs. 69.1%, delayed gastric empty and sour reflux and the other clinical symptoms were 61.9% vs. 30.8%, 46.7% vs. 30.8% and 31.5% vs. 4.9%, respectively (p < 0.05). Endoscopically, after H.pylori eradication: congestive antritis (from 53.2% to 63.1%), raised erosion (from 15.2% to 14.1%), flat erosion (from 31.5% to 22.8%) (p > 0.05). Histopathology, before H.pylori eradication: Antral active gastritis (61.9%), atrophic gastritis (13.0%), intestinal metaplasia (6.5%), dysplasia (5.4%). Corpus active gastritis (59.8%), atrophic gastritis (5.4%), intestinal metaplasia (2.2%), dysplasia (4.3%); (p> 0.05). Most of lesions were mild. The rate of H.pylori infection in antrum (33.9%), and in corpus (28.0%). The most common adverse effects were 70.6%, mainly bitter taste, none of patients was excluded. Conclusions: The eradication rate of hybrid regime (RA-RACM) is high; the side effects were rare and relatively mild. Hybrid therapy may be considered as a first line of H.pylori treatment in current clinical practice. Key words: Chronic gastritis, hybrid regime (RA-RACM), H.pylori

The condition of gastric mucosa was assessed in relatives of patients with gastric cancer (RPGC). The study included 108 RPGC (main group) and 102 patients with no family history of gastric cancer who were screened for dyspepsia. All study participants were subjected to clinical examination, questioning and esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGDS) with a biopsy, in which the gastric mucosa state was assessed according to the modified Sydney system, the OLGA and OLGIM systems, and the definition of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. It was established that the prevalence of H. pylori infection in the main group was 58.3 % (95 % CI 48.8–67.7), in the control group – 56.0 % (95 % CI 46.1–65.6). At RPGC, atrophy of any localization (46.3 % (95 % CI 39.4–53.2) versus 26.5 % (95 % CI 20.4–32.6), respectively, was found more often than in the control group, respectively, p = 0.002), antral atrophic gastritis (41.6 % (95 % CI 34.8–48.4) versus 26.5 % (95 % CI 20.4–32.6), respectively, p = 0.020), and isolated atrophy in the stomach body (4.6 % (95 % CI 1.7–7.4) versus 0 % ( p = 0.03). In RPGC, atrophy developed at a younger age (48.0 years (95 % CI 44.0–52.0) versus 53.0 years in the control group (95 % CI 48.3–57.8) p = 0.000). There were no significant differences between the groups in the incidence of metaplasia and dysplasia. The following risk factors for development of atrophy were identified in the factor analysis: age over 6f0 years (odd ratio (OR) 53.0; 95 % CI 12.2–390.1; p < 0.001), age over 40 years (OR 4.0; 95 % CI 2.0–8.2; p < 0.001), heredity burdened by gastric cancer (OR 2.7; 95 % CI 1.4–5.7; p = 0.006) and the use of strong alcoholic beverages (OR 5.5; 95 % CI 1.6–21.6; p = 0.009). The frequency of the atrophy development of the gastric mucosa is increased in RPGC, and atrophic gastritis develops at a younger age in comparison with individuals without a burdened hereditary history. In addition to the hereditary factor, the risk of atrophy is associated with age and alcohol use.

Background Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is thought to be the etiology of chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, and risk factor for gastric cancer. Management of H. pylori infection in children is associated with several problems such as compliance to therapy, untolerated side effects, and antibiotic resistance. Probiotic is reported to give beneficial effect in the management of H. pylori infection and there is no study yet on the effect of probiotic in eradication of H. pylori infection in Indonesian children.Objectives To study the effect of additional probiotic in the standard therapy on the rate of H. pylori infection eradication in children and its side effect.Methods This was a double blind randomized controlled trial performed in 23 children with H. pylori infection at Kampung Melayu and Rawa Bunga District. The diagnosis was determined based on Helicobacter pylori stool antigen test (HpSA). Subjects were randomly assigned to either receive receive amoxiycilin, clarithromycin, omeprazole, and probiotic (2 x 109 cfu of Lactobacillus acidophilus La5 and Bifidobacterium lactis Bb12) or amoxicillin, clarithromycin, omeprazole dan placebo (maltodextrin). HpSA examination was evaluated again after 2 weeks of therapy.Results Two of 13 subjects in the treatment group and 6 of 10 subjects in the control group experienced side effects. Eradication rate in the treatment group is higher than the control group (13/13 vs 7/10) but the correlation between additional probiotic with the eradication rate of H. pylori is not statistically significant.Conclusions Probiotic can reduce the incidence of side effects due to antibiotic used in H. pylori eradication (2/13 vs 6/10, p < 0.012).
