Results

Total and acyl plasma ghrelin levels demonstrated no significant change from before treatment to 48 weeks after eradication; however, there was a significant difference between open-type and closed-type atrophic gastritis. The PG I/II ratio increased significantly from 48 weeks after H. pylori eradication. The severity of the histological intestinal metaplasia scores correlated inversely with plasma total ghrelin levels from before to 48 weeks after H. pylori eradication.

Baseline Characteristics

The severity of atrophic gastritis is significantly associated with the risk of gastric cancer. Although the current gold standard for assessing the gastric cancer risk is esophagogastroduodenoscopy with a pathological examination, the development of less-invasive biomarkers is warranted for efficient risk stratification of gastric cancer. Serum pepsinogens (PGs) are biomarkers used to predict the extent of gastric mucosal atrophy; however, they are not an accurate reflection of gastric mucosal atrophy after Helicobacter pylori eradication. The present study was conducted to investigate the usefulness of plasma ghrelin levels as a marker for gastric mucosal atrophy, and as a risk stratification marker for gastric cancer, even after H. pylori eradication.

Participant flow

Patients who received H. pylori eradication treatment were enrolled in the study. The severity of gastric mucosal atrophy was evaluated both endoscopically and histologically. Serum pepsinogen and plasma ghrelin levels were measured before and at 1, 12, 24, and 48 weeks after treatment. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Keio University School of Medicine (no. 20140102; July 8, 2014).

Adverse events

None

Outcome measures

The severity of gastric mucosal atrophy was evaluated both endoscopically and histologically. Serum pepsinogen and plasma ghrelin levels were measured before and at 1, 12, 24, and 48 weeks after treatment.
