Abstract
between the two groups. From the histological point of view at cardia level, no differences have been documented between GERD + or in terms of cardial-type mucosa (78% vs. 81.7%), non active (28% vs. 31.7%) and active inflamatory changes (56% vs. 54.8%), and intestinal metaplasia (9% vs. 9.6%). Inflamatory changes, but not intestinal metaplasia, were statistically more frequently associated to HP infection (94% vs.79%,<O.O1).Conclusions:in our study 1.no statistically significant data are emerged correlating GERD either to infiamatory changes or intestinal metaplasia at cardia level. 2.inflamatory changes at cardia level are statistically correlated to Helicobacter pylori presence in stomach.
