Atrophic gastritis classified according to Kimura from mild to severe includes: C1, C2, C3, O1, O2, O3. Thus, you have the mildest strange C1 level in this category.
Causes of atrophic inflammation are many, but the leading cause of atrophic inflammation is caused by the bacteria Helicobacter pylori (HP).
