ABSTRACT
Chronic gastritis is the persistent and insidious inflammation of the gastric lining. Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has been identified as the most common cause of chronic gastritis and consequently elimination of H. pylori can lead to its cure. This editorial explores the use of urinary metabolic profiles before and after eradication to identify biomarkers that can aid in prognosis and treatment. Despite providing promising insights, there are limitations such as a small sample size (17 patients), a narrow treatment period of 2 wk, and treatment heterogeneity, which raise concerns. Nevertheless, these findings have opened a gateway to enhancing the treatment and prognosis of chronic gastritis through urinary metabolomics.
