The association between Campylobacter-like organisms (CLOs) and lesions of the gastric mucosa was studied in 59 consecutive biopsies. Hematoxylin and eosin and Warthin-Starry silver stains, as well as high-resolution light microscopy (HRLM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), were used. The organisms were found in intimate contact with foveolar cells showing abundant phagolysosomes and alterations of the intercellular complexes. CLOs also were seen in close proximity of parietal cells in resting phase, some of which showed degenerative changes. The findings are discussed in light of recent reports linking CLOs to the cause of gastritis.

This study is aimed at comparing the clinical characteristics and histological types of symptomatic and asymptomatic patients with heterotopic gastric mucosa in the upper esophagus (HGMUE) and exploring the factors influencing the occurrence and severity of laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) symptoms in these patients. HGMUE is a potential cause of LPR symptoms. This retrospective analysis evaluated 70 patients with HGMUE using a detailed questionnaire.

Objective: To investigate the role of heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase 2 (HS6ST2) in gastric cancer (GC).
Methods: HS6ST2 expression in GC and adjacent normal gastric mucosa was first detected via immunohistochemical (IHC) staining. The correlation between the expression level of HS6ST2 and clinicopathological parameters were observed.

Gastric cancer (GC) ranks among the top five most diagnosed cancers globally, with particularly high incidence and mortality rates observed in Asian regions. Despite certain advancements achieved through early screening and treatment strategies in many countries, GC continues to pose a significant public health challenge. Approximately 20% of patients infected with develop precancerous lesions, among which metaplasia is the most critical.

Purpose: Daily online adaptive radiation therapy (oART) opens the opportunity to treat gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma with a reduced margin. This study reports our early experience of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)-based daily oART treating gastric MALT lymphoma with breath-hold and reduced margins.
Methods And Materials: Ten patients were treated on a CBCT-based oART system.

Objective: To investigate the role of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) in the diagnosis and treatment of upper gastrointestinal bleeding of unknown origin in liver cirrhosis, focusing on patients with recurrent treatment of esophageal and gastric varices who failed to identify the bleeding site under direct endoscopy.
Background: Esophagogastric variceal bleeding is one of the severe complications of decompensated liver cirrhosis, and serial endoscopic therapy can improve the long-term quality of life of patients. Most acute bleeding can be detected under direct endoscopy with thrombus or active bleeding, but there are still some patients with recurrent bleeding after repeated treatments, and it is difficult to find the bleeding site, especially in gastric variceal bleeding.
