Abstract:
Autoimmune gastritis(AIG) is a CD4 + T cell-mediated organ specific autoimmune disease of the stomach, characterized by the inherent gland atrophy in the stomach and intestinal metaplasia and/or pseudopyloric gland metaplasia. The diversity and nonspecificity of clinical features make the diagnosis difficult. In the past, AIG was thought to occur in the West, but in recent years, more and more studies have shown that the prevalence rate of AIG in China is not low. However, the disease has not attracted the attention of domestic clinical workers. Therefore, this paper reviews the latest research progress in the etiology, clinical characteristics, relationship with other diseases, diagnosis and treatment of AIG, so as to improve the understanding of clinical workers and improve the treatment rate and prognosis of AIG.
