Core Tip
Core Tip: To improve the 5-year survival rate of patients with gastric cancer and the detection rate of early gastric cancer (EGC), this study gathered the screening of patients with EGC and precancerous lesion (PCL) as a breakthrough for relevant research. We included 385 patients with gastric lesions in the Youcheng area for clinical analysis and revealed that pepsinogen ratio has the highest diagnostic efficiency in differentiating patients with benign lesions from those with EGC, followed by differentiating patients with PCL from those with EGC and finally distinguishing patients with benign lesions from those with PCL. The combined pepsinogen ratio and Helicobacter pylori detection exhibited a significant efficacy improvement effect in distinguishing patients with benign lesions from those with PCL, as well as differentiating patients with benign lesions from those with EGC.
