Risk factors for early gastric cancer: focus on Helicobacter pylori gastritis.
Background: Gastric cancer is a global health problem, and the incidence and geographical distribution of different types of gastric cancer varies. Particularly, noncardiac gastric cancer is more prevalent in East Asia, Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America, and Africa. Infection with Helicobact...

Particularly, noncardiac gastric cancer is more prevalent in East Asia, Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America, and Africa. Infection with Helicobacter pylori, which was discovered in 1982, is a common cause of chronic gastritis, and the association between H. pylori infection and gastric adenocarcinoma is well established. Current Concepts: Gastric cancer is histologically divided into 2 types: intestinal and diffuse. H. pylori infection is considered as the main risk factor for the development of both types of gastric tumors. The most documented course of development of stomach cancer is following cellular metaplasia due to chronic inflammation, damage, and repair. Various molecular alterations caused by H. pylori are identified not only in gastric cancer but also in precancerous lesions. Recently, many studies have attempted to diagnose H. pylori gastritis and precancerous lesions using endoscopy. Discussion and Conclusion: Recent studies have shown that eradication therapy stabilizes or reduces the risk of developing gastric cancer. Therefore, the diagnosis and understanding of gastritis and precancerous lesions caused by H. pylori are the first step in the prevention of gastric cancer. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: pictorial tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: Korean refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
