This research attempted to clarify the clinical diagnostic value of combined detection of gastric function and Helicobacter pylori (Hp) serotyping in chronic gastritis and gastric cancer (GC). The 80 chronic non atrophic gastritis (CNAG) patients treated in our hospital from October 2021 to October 2022 received selection as the CNAG group. The 96 chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) patients diagnosed by gastroscopy and pathology in the same period received selection as CAG group. During the same period, 50 patients diagnosed with GC received inclusion in GC group. Pepsin I (PG I), PG II (PG II), gastrin-17 (G-17) and Hp serotyping received detection and comparison in three groups. The diagnostic efficacy of PG Ⅰ, PG Ⅱ, G-17, the ratio of serum PG I to PG II (PGR), and Hp serotyping in chronic gastritis and GC received evaluation by receiver operating characteristic (ROC). Relative to in the CNAG group, PG I and PGR levels in the other two groups exhibited depletion (P 0.05); relative to the CNAG group, the G-17 level in the other two groups exhibited elevation (P < 0.05). Total Hp positive rate was 61.06 %, among which GC group exhibited the highest positive rate (72.00 %), and type I Hp positive rate also exhibited the highest in GC group (60.00 %). The type II Hp positive rate exhibited the highest in CNAG group (15.00 %). The PG I and PGR levels in type I Hp positive patients exhibited depletion relative to those in type II Hp positive patients, whereas PG II and G-17 levels exhibited elevation. When testing each indicator alone, the area under the curve (AUC) of PG I exhibited the highest in CNAG group, which was 0.874. When testing each indicator alone, AUC of Hp typing exhibited the highest in CAG group, which was 0.515. When testing each indicator alone, AUC of G-17 exhibited the highest in GC group, which was 0.787. The performance of combined detection was better than that of individual detection, with AUCs greater than 0.9 in three groups. In conclusion, changes in PG I, PG II, PGR and G-17 levels and Hp serotyping can receive application as screening indicators for chronic gastritis and GC, which can reflect relevant status of gastric mucosa to varying degrees. Combined detection of indicators has higher diagnostic performance and can receive application as an auxiliary diagnostic indicator in addition to gastroscopy biopsy, providing a reference basis for the formulation of clinical diagnosis and treatment plans.
