Key information

About this study

Japanese endoscopic gastric atrophy (EGA) classification, operative link on Gastritis Assessment (OLGA), operative link on intestinal metaplasia assessment (OLGIM) and gastritis pattern are used in evaluating the severity of gastritis and intestinal metaplasia in different countries, which are risk factors of gastric cancer. The aim of the present study was to evaluate characteristics of background mucosa in early gastric cancer (EGC), and to seek for the optimal assessment for EGC screening.

A prospective study was conducted encompassing EGC patients (cases) and non-EGC patients (controls). All patients were performed endoscopic examination and systematically biopsied. Outcome measures were assessed and compared, including EGA classification as well as the OLGA/OLGIM assessment. Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) status was detected in the meantime. A stepwise logistic regression model was performed to analyze correlations between EGA, OLGA, OLGIM and EGC.

Treatment and study plan

gastric atrophy and intestinal metaplasia

Other

use Japanese endoscopic gastric atrophy classification, Operative Link on Gastritis Assessment (OLGA), Operative Link on Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia Assessment (OLGIM) to evaluate the severity of gastric atrophy and intestinal metaplasia

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of patients with severe gastric atrophy and/or intestinal metaplasia in early gastric cancer and non-early gastric cancer

    Time frame: up to 27 months

    use the Japanese endoscopic gastric atrophy (EGA) classification(it has 6 stages-C1,C2,C3,O1,O2,O3), Operative Link on Gastritis Assessment (OLGA,it has 4 stages-I,II,III,IV), and Operative Link on Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia Assessment (OLGIM,it has 4 stages-I,II,III,IV) to pick out severe gastric atrophy and/or intestinal metaplasia(EGA stage C3-O3,OLGA/OLGIM stage III-IV)

Secondary outcomes

  1. correlations between Japanese endoscopic gastric atrophy (EGA) classification, Operative Link on Gastritis Assessment (OLGA), Operative Link on Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia Assessment (OLGIM) and early gastric cancer

    Time frame: up to 27 months

  2. correlations between Helicobacter pylori infection and moderate-to-severe EGA classification, OLGA stage III-IV, OLGIM stage III-IV

    Time frame: up to 27 months

    EGA means endoscopic gastric atrophy classification,OLGA means Operative Link on Gastritis Assessment, and OLGIM means Operative Link on Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia Assessment
