Surveyed 119 men in flight personnel. All were performed esophagogastroduodenoscopy and morphological study of biopsy material. Level of specific antibodies to Helicobacter pylorus (Hp) by enzyme immunoassay was determined, performed breathing Helika-test; Hp was determined by cytological method. Performed acidogastrometry. In 8 patients revealed erosive antral gastritis, 99--chronic gastritis, 12 patients have no stomach or duodenal ulcers. All patients with erosive gastritis were infected with Hp. antibodies to Hp were detected in all patients with chronic gastritis, and Helika-test and cytology for Hp were negative in 18.2% of patients in this group.

This case report presents a rare occurrence of Sarcina ventriculi in a 15-year-old male patient with a clinical history of renal failure due to chronic rejection status post kidney transplantation, with persistent symptoms of diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and fatigue. Despite exhibiting normal gastrointestinal mucosa upon endoscopy, biopsy analysis revealed chronic gastritis accompanied by the presence of Sarcina ventriculi in a tetrad arrangement across the stomach, duodenum, and distal esophagus. Interestingly, immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining targeting the Helicobacter pylori organism (H.

Background: Berberine (BBR) is widely used to treat gastrointestinal diseases. However, the pharmacological mechanism of action of BBR in anti-chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the mechanism of action of BBR in CAG by integration of molecular biology and multi-omics studies strategy.
