Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of pepsinogen and endothelial function changes in patients with Helicobacter pylori(Hp)infection for the early evaluation of atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 163 patients with chronic gastritis complicated with Hp infection admitted from July 2022 to December 2023.Among them,78 patients with erosive gastritis complicated with Hp infection were in the Hp group,57 patients with chronic atrophic gastritis complicated with Hp infection were in the atrophic group,and 28 patients with gastric cancer complicated with Hp infection were in the gastric cancer group.The serum pepsinogen Ⅰ(PG Ⅰ),pepsinogen Ⅱ(PG Ⅱ)levels,and PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio,as well as the levels of plasma nitrogen oxide(NO),endothelin-1(ET-1),intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1)and other endothelial function indicators among the three groups of patients were compared,and Spearman correlation method was applied to analyze the relationship between the levels of pepsinogen and endothelial function indicators in patients with chronic gastritis complicated with Hp infection with the severity of their lesions.ROC curve was drawn to analyze the early evaluation value of pepsinogen and endothelial function indicators in patients with chronic gastritis and Hp infection for their progression to chronic atrophic gastritis or gastric cancer.Results Compared with those of the Hp group,the serum PG Ⅰ,PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio,and plasma NO levels in the atrophic group and gastric cancer group decreased,while the plasma ET-1 and ICAM-1 levels in the atrophic group and gastric cancer group increased(P＜0.05);Compared with those of the atrophic group,the serum PG Ⅰ,PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio,and plasma NO levels in the gastric cancer group decreased,while plasma ET-1 and ICAM-1 levels in the gastric cancer group increased(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the levels of serum PG Ⅱ among the three groups(P＞0.05).The Spearman correlation analysis results showed that the serum PGⅠ,PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio,and plasma NO level in patients with chronic gastritis complicated with Hp infection were negatively correlated with the severity of the disease(P＜0.05);The levels of plasma ET-1 and ICAM-1 were positively correlated with the severity of the lesion(P＜0.05).The ROC curve analysis results showed that serum PG Ⅰ,PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio,and plasma NO,ET-1,and ICAM-1 levels all have certain early evaluation efficacy for the progression of chronic gastritis complicated with Hp infection to chronic atrophic gastritis or gastric cancer.Among them,the combined detection of various indicators had the best early evaluation efficacy.Conclusion Hp infection can lead to a decrease in pepsinogen levels and endothelial dysfunction in patients,and the combined detection of the levels of the two related indicators may serve as reference indicators for early risk assessment of Hp infection progression to chronic atrophic gastritis or gastric cancer.
