Chronic gastritis
Chronic gastritis is a chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa. A number of factors contribute to the development of the disease:
- eating spicy, fatty, hot, and also too cold foods;
- violation of diet;
- food allergies;
- alcohol abuse;
- smoking;
- prolonged use of a number of drugs;
- metabolic disease;
- diseases of the organs of internal secretion;
- infectious diseases;
- occupational hazards.
Helicobacter pylori infection is of global importance in the development of chronic gastritis (gastroduodenitis). This is a spiral gram-negative bacillus, which colonizes the gastric mucosa and is the causative agent of the most common form of gastritis. It is widely distributed throughout the world. According to epidemiological data, about 80% of the adult population is infected in Russia.
Gastritis caused by this infection is the most common variant of gastritis. The presence of H. Pylori and the disease caused by it does not show a specific clinical picture. As a rule, patients' complaints are symptoms of dyspepsia, which become the reason for going to the doctor. This is usually: belching, aching or burning pain in the stomach, lack of appetite, nausea, weight loss.
If the patient has complaints of pain and discomfort in the epigastrium, and ulceration with endoscopy is not detected, then the specialist usually diagnoses PD (functional dyspepsia).
In most patients, chronic gastritis proceeds without symptoms; in some patients, peptic ulcer develops. In others, the progression of gastritis becomes the cause of the development of precancerous disease and the further development of stomach cancer. The disease is morphologically characterized by an inflammatory process, atrophy and impaired regeneration of the gastric mucosa.
