DOI: 10.1136/postgradmedj-2020-139183
Abstract: Background We assessed the validity of using serum pepsinogen tests (sPGTs) to differentiate autoimmune atrophic gastritis (AAG) from environmental atrophic gastritis (EAG). We also investigated the correlation and prognostic value between disease stage, according to… read more here.
