Abstract

Although several studies have investigated excessive salt intake as a risk factor for gastric precancerous lesions such as atrophic gastritis (AG) and intestinal metaplasia (IM), the evidence is insufficient to make conclusion. We evaluated the association between gastric precancerous lesions and salt intake. From 2008 to 2015, the medical records of 728 subjects who underwent upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and sodium excretion in 24-hr urine tests were retrospectively reviewed. Sixty-six subjects were excluded due to diuretics use (n = 55), diagnosis with a gastric neoplasm (n = 4), or the cases of IM in the absence of atrophy (n=7), so 662 subjects were included. AG and IM were diagnosed by endoscopic findings. The subjects were grouped into three levels by tertiles of 24-hr urine sodium excretion. A total of 192 (29.0%) had AG without IM and 112 (16.9%) had AG with IM. The number of 276 subjects (61.5%) were infected with Helicobacter pylori (Hp). In multivariate analyses, Hp infection (OR = 14.17, 95% CI 7.12-28.22) was associated with AG without IM. Highest level of sodium excretion (OR = 2.870, 95% CI 1.34-6.14), heavy smoking (≥ 20 pack-year) (OR = 2.75, 95% CI 1.02-7.39), and Hp infection (OR = 3.96, 95% CI 2.02-7.76) were associated with AG with IM. Our endoscopy based study suggested that high salt intake could be associated with an increased risk of AG with IM. Low salt diet might be helpful to prevent gastric carcinogenesis.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 7. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 July 2023.
All research outputs
#5,167,753
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention
#1,394
of 4,849 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#82,750
of 326,085 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention
#26
of 76 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 79th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,849 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 16.4. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 71% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 326,085 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 74% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 76 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 65% of its contemporaries.
