RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) was discovered 40 years ago and has set a milestone in human medicine. The discovery led to rejection of the dogma of the acidic stomach as a sterile organ and requested to rewrite the chapters on gastric pathophysiology and gastroduodenal diseases. SUMMARY: Over a period of 40 years following the discovery, more than 50,000 articles can be retrieved in PubMed as of today and illustrate the amount and the intensity of research around the role of this bacterium. H. pylori emerged as cause of chronic gastritis and principal cause of peptic ulcer disease (PUD). Eradication of H. pylori became standard of care in management in PUD. The importance of this was highlighted in 2005 with the Nobel Prize in Medicine awarded to Barry Marshall and Robin Warren. H. pylori became eventually recognized for its oncogenic potential in the stomach and as the main risk factor for gastric cancer development. KEY MESSAGES: H. pylori gastritis is defined as infectious disease and requires therapy in all infected individuals. Strategies of gastric cancer prevention and development of therapies to overcome the increasing antibiotic resistance are main targets in clinical research of today.

INTRODUCTION: Eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders beyond eosinophilic esophagitis (non-EoE EGIDs) are rare chronic inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Diagnosis is based on clinical symptoms and histologic findings of eosinophilic inflammation after exclusion of a secondary cause or systemic disease. Currently, no guidelines exist for the evaluation of non-EoE EGIDs. Therefore, the European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) and the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (NASPGHAN) formed a task force group to provide consensus guidelines for childhood non-EoE EGIDs. METHODS: The working group was composed of pediatric gastroenterologists, adult gastroenterologists, allergists/immunologists, and pathologists. An extensive electronic literature search of the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases was conducted up to February 2022. General methodology was used in the formulation of recommendations according to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE) II and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) system to meet current standards of evidence assessment. RESULTS: The guidelines provide information on the current concept of non-EoE EGIDs, disease pathogenesis, epidemiology, clinical manifestations, diagnostic and disease surveillance procedures, and current treatment options. Thirty-four statements based on available evidence and 41 recommendations based on expert opinion and best clinical practices were developed. CONCLUSION: Non-EoE EGIDs literature is limited in scope and depth, making clear recommendations difficult. These consensus-based clinical practice guidelines are intended to assist clinicians caring for children affected by non-EoE EGIDs and to facilitate high-quality randomized controlled trials of various treatment modalities using standardized, uniform disease definitions.

Eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases (EGID), such as eosinophilic gastritis (EoG), eosinophilic enteritis, and eosinophilic colitis (EoC), are chronic inflammatory conditions characterized by persistent gastrointestinal symptoms and elevated levels of activated eosinophils in the gastrointestinal tract. EoG and eosinophilic duodenitis (EoD) are strongly associated with food allergen triggers and TH2 inflammation, whereas EoC shows minimal transcriptomic overlap with other EGIDs. The level of expression of certain genes associated with TH2 immune response is associated with certain histopathologic findings of EoG, EoD, and EoC. Current immune therapy for EoG depletes tissue eosinophilia with persistence of other histopathologic features of disease.

Patients with non-eosinophilic esophagitis eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases (non-EoE EGIDs) are prone to nutritional deficiencies due to food-avoidant behaviors, malabsorption, and high nutrition impact symptoms. Nutrient deficiencies correspond to the segment, depth, and extent of the gastrointestinal tract involved and can impact organs distant from the gut. Patients with non-EoE EGIDs are often atopic, and some appear to respond to dietary avoidance of specific food allergens. Tests to identify food triggers other than response to elimination diets are lacking. Dietary restriction therapy should be considered in such patients and is best implemented through a multidisciplinary approach to avoid nutritional complications.

Mast cells play a central role in the pathogenesis of eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders (EGIDs), including eosinophilic esophagitis. Their interactions with immune and structural cells, involvement in tissue remodeling, and contribution to symptoms make them attractive targets for therapeutic intervention. More is being discovered regarding the intricate interplay of mast cells and eosinophils. Recent studies demonstrating that depletion of eosinophils is insufficient to improve symptoms of EGIDs have raised the question of whether other cells may play a role in symptomatology and pathogenesis of EGIDs.

Although eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases, including eosinophilic esophagitis, have been described over the past 2 to 3 decades, barriers to diagnosis and treatment are common and compounded by issues related to social determinants of health, race, ethnicity, and access to care. These barriers contribute to delays in diagnosis, resulting in persistent inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract, which can have significant consequences, including fibrostenotic complications in adults, failure to thrive in children, and decreased quality of life in all affected patients. In this commentary, we summarize gaps in knowledge regarding the epidemiology of eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases, highlight barriers to diagnosis, discuss potential approaches based on best practices in other atopic and chronic gastrointestinal diseases, and provide recommendations for reducing barriers to timely diagnosis of eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases in underserved populations.

Immune-related adverse events (irAEs) are complications of the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). ICI-associated gastritis is one of the main irAEs. The gastric microbiota is often related to the occurrence and development of many gastric diseases. Gastric microbiota adjustment may be used to treat gastric disorders in the future. Faecal microbiota transplantation can alter the gut microbiota of patients and has been used for treating ICI-associated colitis. Therefore, we propose gastric microbiota transplantation as a supplementary treatment for patients with ICI-associated gastritis who do not respond well to conventional therapy.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has been introduced by since 1983 by Marshal and Warren to play the main role in the pathophysiology of gastritis and gastric ulcers. Almost half of the world population1 is infected by H. pylori. Current therapeutic regimen against H. pylori includes the use of a proton pump inhibitor plus two or more antibiotics. However, the efficacy of this regimen is decreasing mainly due to antibiotic resistance and side effects of medications. This fact has resulted in public interest in other therapeutic options and the role of probiotics merits special attention in this regard. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of honey-derived Lactobacillus rhamnosus on H. pylori-induced gastric inflammation and gastro-intestinal infection in C57BL/6 Mice. METHODS: The 24 C57BL/6 Mice were randomly divided into three groups of eight mice each. All the mice were fed with 1cc suspension containing 5*1010 CFU/ mL of ATCC43504 strains of H. pylori for 3 consecutive days, twice daily via polyethylene gavage tubes. At the end of 4th week, infection with H. pylori was confirmed with stool Ag (ELISA) and following sacrifice of one mouse from each group, histopathologic study confirmed gastritis. The groups were subjected to different therapies as stated, 1: without Bismuth (Bi), Omeprazole (Om) and L. rhamnosus prescription, 2: Bi, Om and Clarithromycin (Cl) and 3: Bi, Om plus 1cc of suspension of 109 CFU/mL of L. rhamnosus. After 2 weeks, the stool was analyzed for Ag and the mice were sacrificed for evaluation of histopathologic changes. RESULTS: Treatment with L. rhamnosus group provided Zero titer of stool Ag and was associated with improved gastric inflammation in all subjects, similar to the clarithromycin group. CONCLUSION: Honey-derived L. rhamnosus probiotics provides similar results as clarithromycin in terms of improvement of H. pylori infection and gastritis in C57BL/6 Mice model, without its cons of antibiotic resistance.
RESUMO CONTEXTO: O Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) foi reconhecido em 1983 por Marechal e Warren como protagonista principal na fisiopatologia de gastrite e úlceras gástricas. Quase metade da população mundial está infectada por H. pylori. O regime terapêutico atual contra H. pylori inclui o uso de um inibidor da bomba de prótons associada a dois ou mais antibióticos. No entanto, a eficácia deste regime está diminuindo principalmente devido à resistência aos antibióticos e efeitos colaterais de medicamentos. Este fato resultou no interesse público em outras opções terapêuticas e o papel dos probióticos merece atenção especial a este respeito. OBJETIVO: Este estudo visa avaliar a eficácia do mel-derivado do Lactobacillus rhamnosus na inflamação gástrica e infecção gastrointestinal H. pylori-induzida em camundongos C57Bl/6. MÉTODOS: Vinte e quatro camundongos C57Bl/6 foram divididos aleatoriamente em três grupos de oito camundongos cada. Todos os ratos foram alimentados com suspensão de 1cc contendo 5*1010 UFC/mL de cepas ATCC43504 de H. pylori por 3 dias consecutivos, duas vezes por dia através de gavagem por tubos de polietileno. No final da 4ª semana, a infecção com H. pylori foi confirmada pelo antígeno fecal (ELISA) e após o sacrifício de um rato de cada grupo, o estudo histopatológico confirmou gastrite. Os grupos foram submetidos a diferentes terapias, como indicado, 1: sem prescrição de bismuto (BI), Omeprazol (Om) e L. rhamnosus, 2: Bi, Om e claritromicina (CL) e 3: Bi, Om mais 1cc de suspensão de 109 UFC/mL de L. rhamnosus. Após 2 semanas, as fezes foram analisadas para o antígeno e os ratos foram sacrificados para a avaliação das alterações histopatológicas. RESULTADOS: O tratamento com o grupo L. rhamnosus forneceu o título zero de antígeno e foi associado com a inflamação gástrica melhorada em todos os camundongos, similar ao grupo claritromicina. CONCLUSÃO: O probiótico mel-derivado L. rhamnosus fornece resultados semelhantes ao da claritromicina em termos de melhoria da infecção H. pylori e gastrite em C57Bl/6 camundongos modelos, sem os inconvenientes de resistência aos antibióticos.

Las enfermedades del aparato digestivo son frecuentes y en ocasiones incapacitantes para la vida diaria y laboral. Dentro de ellas la gastritis es una de las que más incidencia tiene en el mundo entero. En gran parte de los casos la gastritis está acompañada de la infección por Helicobacter Pylori, bacteria que está relacionada con el cáncer de estómago. Los tratamientos que actualmente se llevan a cabo en la medicina tradicional, además de que son muy agresivos, todavía dejan muchas dudas sobre sus efectos secundarios y los daños que pueden llegar a provocar en el organismo, dentro de ellos el cáncer. Por eso mismo se ha visto el incremento en la utilización de las terapias alternativas para el manejo de la gastritis, dentro de ellas la homeopatía, la cual ha tenido una muy buena aceptación y resultados, pero desafortunadamente, todos estos avances no están lo suficientemente documentados. Para la realización de éste trabajo primero se hizo una Revisión Narrativa de la Literatura existente en los últimos 20 años, encontrando en las bases de datos que algunos remedios homeopáticos han demostrado resultados favorables en el manejo de la gastritis y tienen publicaciones muy interesantes en la literatura, pero la gran mayoría de remedios sólo se encuentran relacionados en las materias médicas. Sin embargo, este trabajo logró establecer los medicamentos homeopáticos útiles en la gastritis basándose en los síntomas que reportan las principales Medicinas Internas conocidas, como son las de: Harrison, Cecil y Farreras. Tomando éstos síntomas se pasaron al lenguaje repertorial homeopático, luego se realizó un ejercicio repertorial que nos revela varios remedios policrestos muy valiosos para el manejo de los síntomas de la gastritis. Además se realizó otra repertorización buscando sólo remedios pequeños, que nos pone delante de los ojos, opciones medicamentosas muy útiles que probablemente nunca habríamos pensado. Dentro de los remedios policrestos y semipolicrestos que se encontró tenían la mejor cobertura de síntomas de gastritis están: Arsenicum álbum, Nux vómica, Sulphuricumacidum, Sulphur, Magnesia carbónica, Lycopodium, KaliBichromicum, Iris Versicolor, Graphites, Crocus sativa, Carbovegetabilis, ArgentumNitricum, Bismuthum, Anacardiumorientale, Phosphorus, Plumbummetallicum, Bryonia, NatrumMuriaticum, Lachesis, China officinalis y Pulsatilla. Dentro de los pequeños remedios se encontraron en los primeros 5 lugares: ArsenicumIodatum, Tabacum, SecaleCornutum, FerrumPhosphoricum y Oxalicumacidum; los cuales son incluidos en la tabla de resultados de medicamentos para gastritis, junto con los policrestos y otros remedios de gran valor en el manejo de la gastritis. Este trabajo será de gran ayuda y motivación especialmente para los médicos que trabajamos con la homeopatía, para seguir publicando cada vez con mayor dedicación y detalle con el fin de dar a conocer todas las maravillas que la homeopatía nos demuestra día a día.

Necrotizing gastritis is an infrequent severe pathology. The rich vascular supply and intramural arterial anastomosis protects stomach from vascular disease and embolism. Gastric infarction and necrosis presents as an acute abdominal emergency that requires rapid resolution, which in general includes surgery. Other important etiologies reported are chemical agents, mechanical distention, postoperative, bulimia and infectious diseases. In this article, we report a case of necrotizing gastritis in a 29 years-old male patient, with chronic consumption of NSAIDs for low back pain. He was admitted in the emergency room due to acute abdominal pain that appeared, after alcohol and raw fish consumption. Antral wall thickening was observed in the abdominal computed tomography. Upper gastric endoscopy showed necrosis of antral mucosa and biopsies confirmed necrotizing gastritis. He received medical therapy with antibiotics and proton pump inhibitors with an excellent response with clinical and endoscopic resolution in one month.
La gastritis necrotizante es una patología infrecuente muy grave. Esto se debe en parte a la rica irrigación y a las anastomosis arteriales intramurales que protegen al estómago de enfermedades vasculares y embolias. El infarto gástrico se presenta como una urgencia abdominal, que requiere resolución precoz, frecuentemente quirúrgica. Otras etiología importantes reportadas incluyen agentes químicos, factores mecánicos, bulimia e infecciones. En este artículo se presenta el caso de un paciente de 29 años, sexo masculino, con antecedentes de uso crónico de anti-inflamatorios no esteroidales (AINES), que ingresa a urgencia con dolor abdominal agudo, posterior al consumo de alcohol y pescado crudo. Destaca un engrosamiento antral marcado, sin neumatosis en la tomografía computada de abdomen. En la endoscopia digestiva alta se observa extensa necrosis de la mucosa antral y se confirma el diagnóstico de gastritis necrotizante por biopsias. El paciente tuvo una excelente respuesta a tratamiento con reposo intestinal, antibióticos e inhibidores de bomba de protones. Luego de 1 mes, presentó recuperación completa clínica y endoscopía.

Introducción: El uso de la sangre de grado para el tratamiento de la gastritis y úlceras gástricas se realiza de manera empírica. En investigaciones anteriores hemos observado su capacidad cicatrizante y protectora de la mucosa gástrica, por la estimulación de la secreción de moco, secreción del jugo gástrico sin alterar el pH e incremento de la actividad péptica; por sus componentes, podría además tener capacidad antioxidante, lo que potenciaría su actividad citoprotectora. Objetivo: Determinar la capacidad antioxidante de la sangre de grado (Croton palanostigma) sobre la mucosa gástrica en animales de experimentación, por la prueba de TBARS. Diseño: Estudio prospectivo, analítico-experimental y longitudinal. Lugar: Centro de Investigación de Bioquímica y Nutrición Facultad de Medicina UNMSM. Material biológico: Cuarenta ratas albinas machos, entre 220 a 250 g de peso, distribuidas en 4 grupos. Intervenciones: Previo ayuno sólido de 24 h, se administró a las ratas por canulación orogástrica, en dosis única, del modo siguiente: Grupo basal: glucosa 37,5 kcal/kg de peso. Grupo injuria: alcohol 37,7 kcal/kg en glucosa. Grupo control: alcohol 37,7 kcal/kg con piroxicam 10 mg/kg en glucosa. Grupo experimental: alcohol 37,7 kcal/kg con sangre de grado 0,8 mL/kg, en solución de glucosa. Los animales tuvieron agua para consumo ad libitum. Seis horas después, bajo anestesia con éter vaporizado, se practicó una cirugía abdominal, se extrajo el estómago y se obtuvo la porción glandular, se separó una porción representativa de aproximadamente 0,5 g. El tejido gástrico fue homogenizado con buffer fosfato de sodio 50 mmol/L, a pH 7,4. Se determinó la lipoperoxidación midiendo sustancias reactivas al ácido tiobarbitùrico (TBARS), por método espectrofotométrico a 535 nm y se expresó en nmol/gramo de tejido gástrico. Principales medidas de resultados: Capacidad antioxidante de la sangre de grado (Croton palanostigma) sobre la mucosa gástrica, en animales de experimentación...
Introduction: Sangre de grado use in gastritis and gastric ulcer treatment is done empirically. In previous investigations we have observed sangre de grado both gastric mucosa healing and protection capacity by stimulating mucous secretion, gastric juice secretion without pH change, and increase in peptic activity; due to its components it may have also antioxidant capacity, thus strengthening its citoprotector activity. Objective: To determine sangre de grado (Croton palanostigma) antioxidant capacity on gastric mucosa in experimentation animals by using TBARS test. Design: Prospective, analytic-experimental and longitudinal study. Setting: Biochemistry and Nutrition Research Center, Faculty of Medicine, UNMSM. Biologic material: Forty male albino rats between 200 and 250 g. Interventions: Following 24 hours solid food fasting, the rats received by orogastric cannulation and in unique dose the following: Basal group: glucose 37,5 kcal/kg. Alcohol supplied group: alcohol 37,7 kcal/kg in glucose solution. Control group: alcohol 37,7 kcal/kg with piroxicam 10 mg/kg in glucose solution. Experimental group: alcohol 37,7 kcal/kg plus sangre de grado 0,8 mL/kg in glucose solution. All animals received water ad libitum. Six hours afterwards, abdominal surgery was practiced under vaporized ether anesthesia, the stomachs were extracted and a representative portion of approximately 0,5 g of their glandular portions was obtained. The gastric tissue was homogenized with buffer sodium phosphate 50 mmol/L, at 7,4 pH. Lipoperoxidation was determined by measuring substances...

Os autores reconhecem que seria impossível o tratamento com antimicrobianos, visando a cura da gastrite e a erradicaçao do Helicobacter pylori, considerando sua prevalência em mais da metade da populaçao mundial, a maioria assintomática. Apesar da posiçao oficial das sociedades de gastrenterologia, nao recomendando tratamento para os pacientes com dispepsia funcional associada à gastrite por Hp, os autores sugerem que aqueles poderiam ser beneficiados com a terapêutica. Destacam que, mesmo nao existindo evidências de que a gastrite por Hp exerça algum papel na sintomatologia e na fisiopatologia da dispepsia funcional, a cura da infecçao evitaria o risco potencial de desenvolvimento de úlcera péptica e poderia modificar a epidemiologia do câncer e linfoma gástricos. Propoem esquema terapêutico de curta duraçao apenas nos pacientes com sintomatologia exuberante, com gastrite endoscópica grave, presença de Hp na mucosa gástrica e processo inflamatório ativo e intenso à histopatologia. Consideram que ainda há necessidade de observaçoes clínicas mais aprofundadas por meio de estudos controlados.
