The PPI challenge identifies chronic atrophic gastritis with high accuracy among patients with borderline pepsinogen I levels.
A 30% increase in pepsinogen I after PPI indicates significant results, with 95% positive predictive value.
This observational analysis involved 102 patients with varying pepsinogen I levels underwent endoscopy and biopsies before PPI challenge.
Results show high sensitivity (83%) and specificity (96%) of the method, highlighting its diagnostic importance.
