White light Endoscopy Versus Magnification Endoscopy with Optical Enhancement for the Evaluation Of H. Pylori Gastric Mucosal Changes and Atrophic Gastritis: a Randomized Trial


Abstract:

Aims We aimed to compare white light endoscopy versus magnification endoscopy with an optical enhancement for the evaluation of H. pylori gastric mucosal changes and atrophic gastritis. Methods A single-center, cross-over diagnostic trial. Consecutive patients complaining of dyspepsia (March/2020-Oct/2020) were submitted for a white light EGD and then to a magnification endoscopy with optical enhancement (MEOE) by another independent operator. Gastric mucosa was evaluated using a standardized protocol and biopsies were taken following Sydney guidelines. The final diagnosis was based on histopathology results.
