RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is associated with gastric cancer. Early and accurate diagnosis of H. pylori infection can reduce risk of gastric cancer. Conventional white light imaging (WLI) and image-enhanced endoscopic (IEE) techniques such as narrow-band imaging (NBI), linked color imaging (LCI) and blue laser imaging (BLI) plays pivotal role in H. pylori diagnosis. This study aimed to determine diagnostic performance of real-time endoscopy between WLI and other IEE techniques for diagnosis of H. pylori infection. METHODS: This prospective study compared endoscopic images by gastroscopy using WLI and IEE techniques (LCI, Magnifying-BLI, and Magnifying-NBI) at Thammasat University Hospital, Thailand between January 2020, and July 2021. All participants underwent gastroscopy. Three biopsies at gastric antrum and two biopsies at body were obtained for H.pylori diagnosis. H. pylori infection was defined as a positive test of either one of the following tests: rapid urease test, histopathology, H. pylori culture. RESULTS: Of 167 dyspeptic patients undergoing gastroscopy, 100 were enrolled in this study. Overall H. pylori infection was 40%. Patients had the mean age of 59.1 years and 53% were males. Enlarged gastric folds and antral nodularity can predict H. pylori infection with 100% PPV, while fundic gland polyps and red streak provided 100% PPV for exclusion of H. pylori infection on WLI. Sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and accuracy for diagnosis of H. pylori infection for WLI were 80%, 71.7%, 65.3%, 84.3% and 75% respectively, while those for LCI were 90%, 70%, 66.7%, 91.3% and 78% respectively. M-NBI and M-BLI endoscopy demonstrated elongated pits in H. pylori-positive patients. Sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and accuracy for M-BLI were 95%, 80%, 76%, 96% and 86% respectively, whereas those for M-NBI were 92.5%, 86.7%, 82.2%, 94.6% and 89% respectively. Sensitivity of M-BLI was better than WLI, while sensitivities of LCI and M-NBI were also numerically higher than WLI without statistical difference (M-BLI 95%vs.WLI 80%, p = 0.03; M-NBI 92.5%vs.WLI 80%, p = 0.13; LCI 90%vs.WLI 80%, p = 0.22). Sensitivities of all IEE modes were not different from one another (LCI 90%vs.M-BLI 95%, p = 0.50; LCI 90%vs.M-NBI 92.5%, p = 1.00, M-BLI 95%vs.M-NBI 92.5%, p = 1.00). CONCLUSIONS: M-BLI significantly improved sensitivity of real-time endoscopic diagnosis of H. pylori infection compared with WLI. Enlarged gastric folds and antral nodularity could be reliable predictors for H. pylori infection, while fundic gland polyps and red streak could be important endoscopic findings for H. pylori-negative mucosa.

RESUMEN

Introduction: Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries have high Helicobacter pylori infections, and gastric cancer (GC) is a leading fatal cancer in this region, especially in female patients. This study aimed to compare clinical manifestations, histopathological subtypes, and prognostic factors associated with the overall survival rate of female GC patients in this important region. Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted between 2007 and 2022 at a tertiary care center in Thailand. All clinical information, endoscopic findings, and histological types were extensively reviewed. Furthermore, all qualified studies in ASEAN published in PubMed and Scopus between 2000 and 2022 were extracted and thoroughly analyzed. Young female GC patients are defined as those ≤50 years of age. Results: A total of 98 Thai female GC patients were included, with a mean age of 58.99 ± 14 years; 70.4% were elderly women. The common presenting symptoms were weight loss (69.4%) and dyspepsia (68.4%). Younger female GC patients had significantly more common diffuse-type GC than elderly female GC patients (82.8% vs. 53.6%, p-value = 0.007). Moreover, elderly female GC patients demonstrated significantly better survival than younger female GC patients (44.8% vs. 20.7%, odds ratio = 3.49; 95% confidence interval: 1.20-10.14, p-value = 0.022). Furthermore, a total of 1,491 female GC patients from ASEAN were reviewed and included in this study, aged 15 to 93 years. The top three countries with the highest proportion of female GC from ASEAN were Indonesia (66.7%), Thailand (44.9%), and Singapore (38.4%). Conclusion: GC in women is not uncommon in ASEAN and presents at an advanced stage with a grave prognosis. This study showed that ASEAN countries with the highest disease burden were Indonesia, Thailand, and Singapore. Overall, survival rates for female GC patients in ASEAN countries were relatively low, highlighting the need for proactive measures such as intensive H. pylori eradication and the development of early detection methods for GC.
