Distribution Characteristics of Helicobacter Pylori
Sponsor: Jilin University
Summary
This study aimed to analyze the distribution characteristics of Helicobacter pylori（H. pylori） in varying stages of atrophic gastritis and early gastric cancer using immunohistochemical staining, with the goal of providing guidance for the early screening of gastric cancer. A retrospective analysis was conducted on gastric biopsy cases that underwent H. pylori immunohistochemical staining at our center from March 1, 2023, to August 15, 2025. Cases were classified into non-atrophic and atrophic groups based on the presence or absence of gastric atrophy. All cases were further divided into non-open and open atrophy groups and additionally into early gastric cancer and non-cancer groups. The distribution of H. pylori across subgroups was compared, and multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors associated with the development of early gastric cancer.

immunohistochemical testing
Immunohistochemical results were reviewed independently by two experienced pathologists, with disagreements resolved by a third. Immunohistochemical staining was performed using an anti-H. pylori antibody (Beijing Zhongshan Golden Bridge Biotechnology Co., Ltd, Beijing, China). Positive results were graded as mild (1+): occasional bacteria or colonization in \<1/3 of the specimen length; moderate (2+): colonization exceeding 1/3 but \<2/3 of the specimen, or continuous but sparse distribution on the epithelial surface; and severe (3+): clusters of H. pylori distributed across the full length of the specimen. The gastric body and antrum were assessed separately, and distribution patterns were classified as gastric antrum \> gastric body, gastric antrum = gastric body, or gastric body \> gastric antrum. The distribution of H. pylori across subgroups was compared, and multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors associated with the development of early gastric cancer.
