Several reports of estimates for precancerous conditions for gastric adenocarcinoma can be
found in the current literature. Our aim was to systematically review and estimate the …

Background & Aims: A cascade of precursor lesions (eg, atrophic gastritis, intestinal
metaplasia, and dysplasia) precedes most gastric adenocarcinomas. Quantification of …

There are no established criteria to classify patients into high or low risk of progressing to
gastric cancer (GC). The aim of the study was to identify predictors of GC occurrence among …

Background: The pre-malignant gastric lesions atrophic gastritis (AG), intestinal metaplasia
(IM) and dysplasia (DYS) have long been identified as principal risk factors for gastric …

BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori is the main risk-factor for gastric cancer through a
cascade from gastritis through atrophic gastritis (AG), intestinal metaplasia (IM), dysplasia …

Atrophic gastritis (AG) and intestinal metaplasia (IM) are the main precursor lesions of
gastric cancer as the incidence of gastric cancer increases in the gastric mucosa involved …

Intestinal-type gastric adenocarcinoma arises from a multistep process starting with
Helicobacter pylori infection followed by gastric atrophy, gastric intestinal metaplasia and …

Methods: We conducted a hospital-based study that included all patients with gastric IM
between 1992 and 2010, and the development of gastric adenocarcinoma was evaluated …

Objective To accurately measure the incidence of gastric cancer among patients with gastric
precancerous lesions, and to quantify the excess incidence in comparison with people with …

For the prevention of gastric cancer, the detection of risk factors associated with
precancerous conditions may be more informative. The aim of this study was to identify the …
