ABSTRACT
We aimed to determine the diagnostic value of anti-parietal cell antibodies (anti-PCA), anti-intrinsic factor antibodies (anti-IFA), pepsinogen ratio (PGI/II), and gastrin-17 (G-17) in corpus-restricted atrophic gastritis (CRAG) detected by ELISA (Inova, Biohit). Our study compared 29 CRAG cases against 58 age- and sex-matched controls with mild or no atrophy. Anti-PCA and anti-IFA positive cutoff values were ≥25 units for both. PGI/II value <3 was considered characteristic for atrophy; positive cutoff values for G-17 and anti-H. pylori IgG were >5 pg/L and >30 EIU. Anti-PCA was positive in 65.5% For CRAG cases and 13.8% of the controls (p < 0.0001), anti-IFA was positive in 13.8% and 0% (p = 0.01), respectively. Decreased pepsinogen levels were present in 79.3% of CRAG cases and 10.3% of the controls (p < 0.0001). PGI/II ratio was the best single biomarker, with sensitivity = 79%, specificity = 90%, and AUC 0.90. The combined use of PGI/II and anti-PCA resulted in AUC 0.93 for detecting CRAG. Our study suggests that the best combination of non-invasive biomarkers for detecting CRAG is PGI/II with anti-PCA. The addition of G-17 and anti-IFA is of little utility in clinical application.
