Gastritis is a disease associated with inflammation and a dystrophic change in the gastric mucosa. In Russia, this disease is considered the most urgent and widespread. Statistics show that the disease of the digestive system is about 35%, and among diseases of the stomach 80-85%.The most dangerous form is atrophic gastritis, which has a predisposition to the formation of tumors. The incidence of them reaches 5% in people under the age of 30, from 31 to 50 years - 30%, after 50 years - 50-70%.No less relevant in Russia is the acute form, which postpones a negative imprint on the person's health. Statistics show that improper and unbalanced nutrition, as well as bad habits, negatively affect the human body and contributes to the development of diseases associated with the stomach, which are characterized by a certain form and severity. The urgency of the development of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract in our country is large enough, so timely access to specialists will help to identify the disease at an early stage and eliminate the foci that triggered the formation and contribute to the further development of this disease.
Gastritis statistics in Russia show that the acute form of the disease is less relevant to date, but it is the most dangerous for people, as it has a fairly rapid progression. Its appearance is associated with intestinal infections that can cause bacteria and toxins. This form of the disease can be triggered by taking medications and chemicals that damage the gastric mucosa. Statistics show that the most developed acute form of this disease is an erosive gastritis caused by the Helicobacter pylori bacterium, which forms erosion on the gastric mucosa.
The urgency of chronic gastritis exceeds the acute form of the disease and its statistics reaches its maximum. It takes place in the body for a long period of time, for which the gastric mucosa changes. As a result, this disease turns into a chronic form, which is characterized by the appearance of periods of exacerbations. Causes may arise from impaired metabolism and the use of hot food.
Atrophic gastritis is relevant to date and quite dangerous. His statistics are given above. As a result of the inflammatory process, the glands die and the process of splitting the food is broken. Statistics show that this form of gastritis in Russia is quite common and dangerous for human health.
