A 69-year-old man visiting our hospital with an epigastralgia and tarry stool was diagnosed as having Behçet's disease on the basis of repetitious aphthous stomatitis, erythema nodosum and arthralgia in 1991. The next year, he suffered from double active ulcers in the antrum of the stomach, and he had been operated on for intestinal perforation. In 1994, endoscopic examination revealed the gastric mucosal bridge between the double ulcers. The double ulcer healed after an eradication therapy of H. pylori, but the gastric mucosal bridge has remained there on the gastrointestinal endoscopy. The gastric mucosal bridge with Behçet's disease has not been reported in Japan, being considered to be very rare.

Oxyntic gland adenomas (OGAs) are benign gastric neoplasms composed of gland-forming epithelial cells with predominantly chief cell differentiation resembling oxyntic glands confined to the mucosa. If the tumor has submucosal invasion, it should be classified as gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland type. The OGAs can pose a diagnostic challenge, as they can resemble aggressive gastric neoplasms.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: The pathogenesis of alcoholic gastric injury has long been a significant topic in the medical field. Dan-Shen-Yin (DSY), a classic traditional Chinese medicine formula, has been shown to alleviate gastric mucosal injury and to treat stomachaches in clinical settings. However, the mechanism by which DSY against alcoholic gastric injury requires further investigation.

Microbiome analysis has become a crucial tool for basic and translational research due to its potential for translation into clinical practice. However, there is ongoing controversy regarding the comparability of different bioinformatic analysis platforms and a lack of recognized standards, which might have an impact on the translational potential of results. This study investigates how the performance of different microbiome analysis platforms impacts the final results of mucosal microbiome signatures.
