Scientific titleAge, smoking and weight are main contributors for the development of intestinal metaplasia of the cardia
Study objectivesThe aim of this study was to assess the respective roles of Helicobacter pylori (HP), gastroesophageal reflux, age, smoking habit and obesity on the development of intestinal metaplasia of the cardia (IMC)
Ethics approval(s)In 2003, at the start of this study no Ethical commission existed. The study design was approved by the head of University Hospital Geneva and University Hospital Lausanne, where the patients were recruited.
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedIntestinal metaplasia of the cardia (IMC)
Intervention217 patients were studied. The appointment letter was sent to the patient with the written information leaflet usually within one week before endoscopy. Patient consent to participate was obtained only upon his/her arrival for the endoscopic procedure. Therefore, all patients signed an informed consent form upon their arrival.
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), smoking habit, body mass index (BMI) and age were recorded. Biopsies were histologically evaluated for specialised intestinal metaplasia.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measureAssessment of the respective roles of HP, GERD, age, smoking habit and obesity on the development of IMC
