Filter by:Despite declining incidence rates, gastric cancer (GC) ranks the fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortality and the fifth most common cancer worldwide, with the highest incidence reported in Eastern Asia. The 5-year overall survival rate of early GC exceeds 90%, which was well above advanced GC. Most intestinal-type GCs follow the Correa cascade-inflammation,atrophy, intestinal metaplasia (IM), dysplasia and subsequent carcinoma. The presence of gastric mucosal atrophy and intestinal metaplasia are important risk factors for GC. The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of GC attributed to atrophic gastritis in a region with high incidence of GC.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the risk factors associated with incident HGD/GA in patients with CAG with or without IM who are enrolled in endoscopic surveillance, as well as to compare GA incidence according to the OLGA and OLGIM scales in patients 18 years or older. . The main questions it aims to answer are: - What risk factors are associated with incident HGD/GA in patients with CAG with or without IM? - What is the comparative HGD/GA incidence according to the OLGA and OLGIM scales?
Grading endoscopic atrophy according to the Kimura-Takemoto classification can assess the risk of gastric neoplasia development. However, the false negative rate of chronic atrophic gastritis is high due to the varying diagnostic standardization and diagnostic experience and levels of endoscopists. Therefore, this study aims to develop an AI model to identify the Kimura-Takemoto classification.
The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a clinical decision support system based on automated algorithms. This system can use natural language processing to extract data from patients' endoscopic reports and pathological reports, identify patients' disease types and grades, and generate guidelines based follow-up or treatment recommendations
Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a common and frequently-occurring disease, characterized by atrophy of gastric mucosal epithelium and glands, thinning of the mucosa, thickening of the submucosal muscle layer, intestinal metaplasia, and atypical hyperplasia. The course of the disease is protracted and often recurrent, which seriously affects the work and physical and mental health of the patient. Moreover, epidemiological studies have shown that the risk of gastric cancer in patients with chronic multifocal atrophic gastritis is significantly higher than that of the general population. Because CAG intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia can easily develop into gastric cancer, the World Health Organization (WHO) listed CAG's gastric mucosal atrophy, intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia as precancerous lesions of gastric cancer in 1978. Therefore, reversing and disappearing the precancerous state of gastric cancer is an effective measure to prevent the occurrence of gastric cancer. The cause of CAG is complicated. Modern medicine believes that CAG is closely related to biological factors, physical and chemical factors, immune factors, and genetic factors. At present, there is no specific treatment, but symptomatic treatment is the main treatment. The disease belongs to the categories of "stomach pain" and "suffocation" in traditional Chinese medicine. In many years of surveys and studies in Mainland China, it is found that Dendrobii granules have a good effect on chronic atrophic gastritis. It is planned to explore the possibility, effectiveness and safety of Dendrobii granules in the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis through clinical trials. 20 subjects will be randomized into the treatment group and placebo group with 18 weeks of treatment.
Since much is unknown about factors that lead to progression of the pre-neoplastic lesions and cancer. In addition, there is ongoing debate on the optimal surveillance intervals and techniques. To solve these important clinical questions, the establishment of a registry for a longitudinal study is planned.
To establish a prospective cohort of individuals diagnosed with gastric pre-malignant conditions (chronic gastritis, atrophic gastritis, autoimmune gastritis, intestinal metaplasia, intestinal dysplasia) to monitor and study disease progression. The Investigators will like to survey cohort participants for lifestyle behaviors and environmental exposures associated with gastric pre-malignancy and cancer. Analyzing patient biospecimens to identify and characterize host and microbiome biomarkers associated with initiation and progression of gastric pre-malignancies.
The primary objectives of this study are: - To identify clinical or histological factors associated with gastric cancer development in patients with IM and AG - To establish a machine learning algorithm for prediction of future gastric cancer risks and individual risk stratification in patient with IM and AG
Introduction: Gastric atrophy and intestinal metaplasia are the principal precursors for gastric cancer and, therefore, are considered gastric premalignant conditions. Although current guidelines recommend surveillance of individuals with these conditions, the best method for its identification and staging (histological vs endoscopy) and the best time schedule for follow-up are still controversial. Aims: To describe for the first-time patients with premalignant conditions both clinically (familial history), histologically (OLGA/OLGIM; complete/incomplete metaplasia) and endoscopically (EGGIM) using validated scales and to describe evolution of these parameters through time. To estimate prospectively the gastric cancer risk according to EGGIM stages. To define the best endoscopic surveillance follow-up for the several stages considering clinical, histological and endoscopic factors. Methods: Multicenter study involving different gastroenterology departments from several countries. Consecutive patients older than 45 years scheduled for upper endoscopy in each of these centers will be evaluated by High-Resolution- endoscopy with virtual chromoendoscopy and EGGIM will be calculated. Guided biopsies (if areas suspicious of IM) and/or random biopsies (if no areas suspicious of IM) in antrum and corpus will be made and OLGA/OLGIM stages calculated. Patients will be evaluated in clinical consultation and database will be fulfilled. All patients will be eradicated for Helicobacter pylori infection if positive. At that occasion, all the patients with EGGIM>5 and/or OLGA III/IV and/or OLGIM III/IV will be randomized for yearly (12 to 16 months) or every three years (32-40 months) endoscopic follow-up during a period of 6 years (SUPREME I). Endoscopic observational follow-up will be scheduled for patients with EGGIM 1-4 and OLGIM I/II at 3 and 6 years (SUPREME II). For individuals with no evidence of IM (EGGIM 0 and OLGIM 0, OLGA 0-II) a follow-up endoscopy 6 years after will be proposed (SUPREME III).
This will be a pilot study investigating the feasibility of using pressurized irrigation of the stomach mucosa to obtain gastric aspirate cell samples for analysis and identification of premalignant lesions of the stomach.
