Up to one-third of patients have autoimmune thyroid disease and about 6-10% of patients with type 1 diabetes have VTE. Patients with glandular autoimmune disease often have a high rate of megaloblastic anemia. Other diseases that have been recorded at the same time with VSD include albinism, Addison's disease, and myasthenia gravis.
1. An overview of autoimmune gastritis
Autoimmune gastritis is an atrophic gastritis of the stomach lining that focuses mainly on the body and stomach due to the appearance of antibodies against the parietal cells of the stomach and intrinsic factors, which can lead to destruction of the mucosal layer. gastric mucosa, resulting in anemia and vitamin B12 deficiency, even leading to stomach cancer.

2. The relationship between VTE and H. pylori infection
H. pylori itself also causes chronic atrophic gastritis (VTNMDDM). There are some differences between autoimmune and H. pylori atrophic gastritis, but they are not always easily distinguishable. In many cases, patients with VTE may have H. pylori infection.
And conversely, in some patients infected with H. pylori may promote the occurrence of VTE due to a number of mechanisms such as increasing the number of B cells, T cells in the gastric mucosa, promoting the death process. programmed by inflammatory response, decreased acid secretion, increased gastrin concentration.
In addition, some authors hypothesized that there is a phenomenon of cross antigen presentation between H+K+ATPase and some proteins of H. pylori bacteria, leading to T-cell proliferation and production of cytokines by H+K+ATPase. Th1 cells. According to a study, the detection rate of antibodies against H+K+ATPase enzyme in H.Pylori infected patients is 20-30%. Thus, in fact, UTIs can be divided into three groups:
Group caused by H. pylori alone, characterized by diffuse inflammation, multiple foci of atrophic inflammation with intestinal metaplasia and no antibodies Group due to autoimmune mechanism alone with focal inflammatory lesions in the body, no lesions in the antrum, history and no current H. pylori infection The third group is patients with a combination of both causes Differences between gastritis Autoimmune gastritis and chronic atrophic gastritis due to H.Pylori
Autoimmune gastritis: There is a mechanism by antibodies against the enzyme H+K+ATPase, lesions are usually concentrated in the body. In the early stage: lesions are less difficult to detect on endoscopy, there may be microcytic iron deficiency anemia, late stage: pseudopolyposis atrophy in the body, macrocytic anemia due to vitamin B12 deficiency, dangerous dysplasia or gastric adenocarcinoma, increased risk of Carcinoid type I. Important treatment is vitamin B12 supplementation. Chronic atrophic gastritis caused by H.Pylori : Mechanism caused by H.Pylori, lesions concentrated in the antrum, endoscopic image: Atrophic mucosal inflammation from the antrum spreads to many areas of damage, Clinically without iron deficiency anemia, there is a risk of dysplasia or gastric adenocarcinoma. The most important treatment H.pylori.
