Relaciones Intrafamiliares y Riesgo de Suicidio de Estudiantes Mexicanos de Bachillerato
Authors: Herrera Orozco Ariel , Paramo Castillo Daniel
Published: August 2022

La cantidad de muertes por suicidio en México aumenta en promedio 2.35% cada año y se concentra en los grupos de edad de 15 a 24 años. Aunque se sabe que múltiples factores familiares intervienen en el comportamiento suicida de los adolescentes, las formas de evaluarlos han sido heterogéneos. El objetivo fue identificar la relación entre las relaciones intrafamiliares y el riesgo de suicidio en estudiantes de un bachillerato de Aguascalientes. Se implementó un diseño correlacional con muestra tipo censo mediante el uso de las escalas de Plutchik de riesgo suicida y Relaciones Intrafamiliares, cuyas subescalas evalúan unión y apoyo, expresión y dificultades. La información se analizó fue mediante estadísticas descriptivas, de correlación y regresión lineal. De los 946 participantes se encontró riesgo suicida en casi 20%, predominando las mujeres. Se encontró una relación significativa entre el riesgo suicida y las tres subescalas de relaciones intrafamiliares, aunque sólo Expresión y Dificultades mantuvieron esa correlación en el modelo de regresión lineal. Se concluye que la dinámica familiar en que se desarrollan los jóvenes influye en el riesgo suicida, aunque no constituya causa suficiente. Se sugiere considerar variables psicosociales y usar instrumentos adaptados a cada población en el estudio del suicidio adolescente.

Authors: Del Conde Schnaider Ekaterina , López Sánchez Cinthya Vanessa , Velasco Matus Pedro Wolfgang
Published: August 2022

Introducción: Los avances científicos y tecnológicos del último siglo han promovido estilos de vida inactivos y nocivos para la salud humana, resultando en repercusiones tanto físicas como mentales que han terminado por acentuarse durante el confinamiento por la pandemia de COVID-19. Considerando a la actividad física como “cualquier movimiento corporal producido por los músculos esqueléticos que exija gasto de energía” (OMS, 2020, p.1) se indagó su posible relación con los factores de estrés y ansiedad, al igual que su influencia sobre el autoconcepto y autoestima (VanKim & Nelson, 2013 en Ramirez et al., 2018), dependiendo de las horas horas invertidas en la actividad física (considerando desde niveles sedentarios hasta ejercicio físico). Objetivo:Identificar la relación que tiene la actividad física con variables de la salud mental (el estrés, la ansiedad, el autoconcepto y la autoestima) en adultos jóvenes mexicanos. Método: Se utilizó una muestra no probabilística de 273 personas voluntarias, entre las edades de 18 a 25 años, quienes respondieron la Escala de Estrés Percibido, el Inventario de Ansiedad Rasgo-Estado, la Escala de Autoestima y el Listado de Adjetivos para la Evaluación del Autoconcepto en Adolescentes y Adultos. Resultados: Se llevó a cabo un análisis de correlación entre estrés y ansiedad, donde ambas variables mostraron significancia en la autoestima positiva, el autoconcepto físico y el autoconcepto emocional. El análisis de varianza mostró diferencias estadísticamente significativas en las variables de estrés, autoconcepto y autoestima total al compararse con algunos de los grupos. Los jóvenes sedentarios presentaron los niveles más altos de estrés, mientras que aquellos más físicamente activos mostraron mayor ansiedad. El grupo que realiza de 4 a 5 horas de ejercicio semanal presentó los niveles de autoconcepto y autoestima más altos. Discusión: La ansiedad mantiene una relación variable dependiendo de las horas dedicadas al ejercicio físico, mientras que el estrés se relaciona con el sentimiento de capacidad que la persona tiene de sí misma (Moral & Cázares, 2014). El autoconcepto y autoestima se ven afectadas positivamente con la presencia de actividad física por un incremento de percepción de bienestar, control y salud emocional (Watson, 1988, en Gómez et al. 2012).
Rahasia Keagungan Ilahi Dibalik Penafsiran Sastra Bint Asy-Syati’
Authors: Aziz Nasaiy , Daud Mohd Kalam
Published: August 2022

Al-Qur'an in Islam is God's guidance to all humans at all times and throughout the world whose contents must be understood and practiced. To better understand the content and meaning of the Qur'an, a study of the interpretation of the Qur'an is very necessary in order to know the message of Allah behind the texts. The study of the Qur'an actually always experiences a fairly dynamic development, along with the development of socio-cultural conditions and human civilization. This is evidenced by the emergence of works of interpretation, ranging from classical to contemporary, with various styles, methods and approaches used. Bint ash-Syati' is the first female interpreter to live in contemporary times, through language interpretation with a philological and literary approach, which she initiated tries to apply examples of interpretation and apply them in people's lives. It is hoped that the study of the interpretation model will be able to provide a sharper and more specific picture of the method model in question. ABSTRAK Al-Qur’an dalam Islam merupakan petunjuk Allah kepada seluruh manusia di segala zaman dan seluruh dunia yang isinya harus dipahami dan diamalkan. Untuk lebih memahami isi dan makna Al-Qur’an, kajian tafsir Al-Qur’an sangat diperlukan guna mengetahui pesan Allah di balik teks-teksnya. Kajian Al-Qur’an sebenarnya selalu mengalami perkembangan yang cukup dinamis, seiring dengan perkembangan kondisi sosial-budaya dan peradaban manusia. Hal ini terbukti dengan munculnya karya-karya tafsir, mulai dari yang klasik sampai kontemporer, dengan berbagai corak, metode dan pendekatan yang digunakan. Bint asy-Syati’ adalah penafsir perempuan pertama yang hidup di zaman kontemporer, melalui penafsiran bahasa dengan pendekatan filologi dan sastra yang digagasnya mencoba mengaplikasikan contoh-contoh penafsiran dan mengaplikasikan dalam kehidupan masyarakat. Kajian model penafsiran tersebut diharapkan akan dapat memberikan gambaran yang lebih tajam dan spesifik yang dimiliki oleh model metode dimaksud
THE DEVELOPMENT OF CIVIL LAW COMPETENCE AS A FACTOR OF PARTICIPATION OF RUSSIAN YOUTH IN PRACTICAL POLITICS
Authors:   Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration, GOLOVIN D.A.
Published: August 2022

The purpose of the article is to analyze the factors influencing the development of practical skills of civil-law competence of Russian youth. Much attention is given to research methods such as an interdisciplinary system approach, a sociological method and a factor analysis. The author emphasizes that the priority attention of Russian researchers is devoted to the improvement of the educational component of civil law competence of a new generation. It is stressed that the issue of practical skills developing of civil and political participation of young people is undeservedly overlooked. The author draws attention to the fact that a new generation of Russians needs to test the theoretical knowledge obtained in political practice. A number of factors that prevent Russian youth from testing democratic practices of civic participation are revealed. As a result of the research, the author draw conclusions that shortage of mechanisms of civic participation cannot be compensated by the state policy actively pursued today to improve the standard of living of young people, patriotic education, stimulating the development of traditional family values and improving the efficiency of social elevators. The necessity of developing an appropriate mechanism for the development of civil law competencies of young people in practice is argued. The active involvement of young people in the activities of public reception offices at state bodies and public organizations, human rights schools, intellectual analytical projects and competitions are recommended.

The biogeographic and evolutionary processes shaping population divergence in Laupala
Authors: Blankers Thomas , Shaw Kerry
Published: August 2022

Speciation generates biodiversity, and the mechanisms involved are
thought to vary across the tree of life and across environments. For
example, well-studied adaptive radiations are thought to be fueled by
divergent selection in ecologically variable environments, but
additionally are influenced heavily by biogeographic, genomic and
demographic factors. Mechanisms of non-adaptive radiations, producing
ecologically cryptic taxa, have been less well-studied but should
likewise be influenced by these latter factors. Comparing among these
contexts can help pinpoint universal mechanisms and outcomes. Here, we
investigated the contributions of biogeographic and evolutionary
processes to population divergence in Laupala cerasina, a
wide-spread endemic on Hawai’i Island and one of 38 ecologically and
morphologically cryptic Laupala species. The nine sampled
populations showed striking population genetic structure at small
spatio-temporal scales, fitting a progression rule pattern where
populations have sequentially colonized progressively younger volcanoes
on Hawai’i Island. The rapid differentiation among populations and
species of Laupala shows that neither a specific geographic
context nor ecological opportunity are pre-requisites for rapid
divergence. Genomic heterogeneity was strongly dependent on
recombination rate and background selection. The genomic landscape was
further shaped by elevated divergence in regions harbouring mating song
loci in the most recently diverged population pairs. Comparing our
findings with recent work on complementary systems supports the
influence of mostly universal factors in the speciation process.
Non-neuronal TRPA1 encodes mechanical allodynia evoked by neurogenic inflammation and partial nerve injury in rats
Authors: Logu Francesco De , Siena Gaetano De , Landini Lorenzo , Marini Matilde , Araújo Daniel Souza Monteiro de , Romitelli Antonia , Iannone Luigi , Geppetti Pierangelo , Nassini Romina
Published: August 2022

Background and Purpose. The proalgesic transient receptor potential
(TRP) ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channel, expressed by a subpopulation of primary
sensory neurons, has been implicated in various pain models in mice.
However, evidence in rats indicates that TRPA1 conveys nociceptive
signals elicited by channel agonists but not those associated with
tissue inflammation or nerve injury. Here, in rats, we explored the
TRPA1 role in mechanical allodynia associated with neurogenic
inflammation and moderate (partial sciatic nerve ligation, pSNL) or
severe (chronic constriction injury, CCI) sciatic nerve injury.
Experimental Approach. Acute nociception and mechanical hypersensitivity
associated with neurogenic inflammation and sciatic nerve injury (pSNL
and CCI) were investigated in rats with TRPA1 pharmacological antagonism
or genetic silencing. TRPA1 presence and function was analyzed in
cultured rat Schwann cells. Key Results. Hind paw mechanical allodynia
(HPMA), but not acute nociception, evoked by local injection of the TRP
vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) agonist, capsaicin, or the TRPA1 agonist, allyl
isothiocyanate, was mediated by calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP)
released from peripheral nerve terminals. CGRP-evoked HPMA was sustained
by a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent TRPA1 activation, probably
in Schwann cells. HPMA evoked by pSNL, but not that evoked by CCI, was
mediated by ROS and TRPA1 without the involvement of CGRP. Conclusions
and Implications. As found in mice, TRPA1 mediates mechanical allodynia
associated with neurogenic inflammation and moderate nerve injury in
rats. The channel implication in mechanical hypersensitivity following
inflammation and partial nerve damage is a common rodent feature and
might be explored in humans.

Published: August 2022

Background Total Intravenous Anaesthesia (TIVA) with propofol infusion
is done by manual co’ntrolled infusion (MCI) or by target-controlled
infusion (TCI) devices. This is a comparative study of MCI/TCI
administration. Method In this randomized controlled trial, Anaesthesia
was induced with propofol 1%, using a target blood concentration of 5
Meg/ml in the TCI group or at a dose of 1.5 mg/kg at an infusion rate of
1200 ml/h in the MCI group. Subsequently, a step-down maintenance
regimen (10, 8 and 6 mg/kg/h at 10-min interval) was commenced for the
MCI group. Primary outcome was the time to induction of anaesthesia in
both groups. Data was analysed using Statistical Package for Social
Sciences (SPSS) version 20.0. Results 52 patients were recruited into
the study. The duration of induction of anaesthesia in the TCI group
compared to the MCI group was (94.62 ± 11.34 sec vs. 79.50 ±16.23 sec, p
= 0.001). The induction dose of propofol TCI against MCI was (118.00 ±
22.33 mg vs.133.04 ± 20.58 mg, p = 0.015). Both groups were comparable
in terms of total dose of propofol (I 152.92 ± 234.47 mg vs. 1014.97 ±
264.18 mg, p = 0.052), recovery time (8.45 ± 2.13 min vs. 7.86 ± 2.05
min, p = 0.314), haemodynamic parameters and incidence of adverse
events. Conclusion Manual controlled infusion was comparable to target
controlled infusion for the induction and maintenance of general
anaesthesia using propofol; providing similar quality and ease of
anaesthesia as a viable option in resource challenged settings.
Statistical analysis of fibre reinforced frozen soil
Authors: Amit Kumar  , Dharmender Kumar Soni
Published: August 2022

Across the globe, cold region areas experience frequent freeze and thaw cycles. Sometimes these natural cycles become so impacteous that the engineering properties of soil get affected adversely and supported structures like pavements damage or collapse by the time. In the present study chicken eggshell powder, sodium chloride and polypropylene fibres were used to stabilise the soil. Strength properties of 21-day cured virgin and treated soil samples were determined after keeping under 3, 5 and 10 freeze–thaw cycles. For durability assessment, mass loss was also determined after the same number of freeze–thaw cycles. Finally, optimal conditions were determined through analysis of variance. Results showed that the natural additives and synthetic fibres promise as better provision against harsh weather conditions. Design of experiments was made by the Taguchi technique using a statistical software Minitab® 17. Further analysis was done to find out the probability distribution of the responses. Probability distribution showed a large variation in the responses that implies that although the results were found satisfactorily as per the engineering purposes, yet not suitable to make any relationship between strength and durability properties.

Published: August 2022

Women have experienced sexual abuse, and very few of them report to the police or seek other services, such as medical attention. This study aims to gain insight into the barriers women with disabilities face when accessing police, health, and counselling services after experiencing sexual abuse. Barriers such as long distances, physical barriers at service sites, communication barriers, gender issues, lack of confidence in the service providers, and an overall lack of resources were reported. In a study undertaken in Zimbabwe, women with disabilities encountered intersecting barriers such as the intersection of disability, and gender, poverty, unemployment, and low levels of education aggravated structural and social impediments for women with disabilities when seeking services after sexual abuse.

Authors: Ojo Ochuko M. , Babatola Josiah O. , Olabanji Taiwo O.
Published: August 2022

This study is aimed at assessing the relationship between different anaerobic digestion parameters (biogas quality, retention time, pH, temperature, biogas pressure, volume of biogas produced and cumulative volume of gas produced) in a Pig-dung (PD) aided Water Hyacinth (WH) digestion process in order to maximize biogas yield in terms of quantity and quality. 25 - litre capacity plastic prototype digesters were used in the study and eleven (11) mix ratios of PD and WH were prepared namely: 10 WH: 0 PD, 9 WH: 2 PD, 8 WH: 2 PD, 7 WH: 3 PD, 6 WH: 4 PD, 5 WH: 5 PD, 4 WH: 6 PD, 3 WH: 7 PD, 2 WH: 8 PD, 1 WH: 9 PD and 0 WH: 10 PD. The digestion process was evaluated for a retention period of 40 days. A bivariate Pearson correlation analysis was carried out to examine the relationship between the quality of gas produced and other variables. The results revealed that daily gas production yields greatly improved in the co-digestion runs with mix 3 WH: 7 PD recording the highest maximum daily yield of 9.5 L with a cumulative gas volume of 140 L. For this mix, the methane content of the gas produced increased from 5.8% on day 4 to 69.2% on day 20. The least quantity and quality of gas was produced by mix 10 WH: 0 PD with a maximum daily yield 2.34 L and a cumulative gas yield of 32.18 L. The digestion of all the mixes occurred within a mesophilic temperature range of 28.2 to 31.4 0C and an increase in temperature within the digestion resulted in an increase in the quality of gas produced. The gas pressure ranged from 1 bar to 3.324 bars with an increase in gas pressure leading to a corresponding increase in volume of gas produced. The pH of the substrates ranged from 6.1 to 8.4 with the values low at the start of the digestion process and gradually increasing to its maximum at the end of the digestion process. The results revealed a very strong, positive and significant association between the quality of the biogas produced and other digestion parameters.

Published: August 2022

Formal education that used to be done face-to-face in schools is now being conducted online. Changes in the implementation of this learning certainly have an impact on various parties. The purpose of this study was to determine the perception of the implementation of online learning from the teacher's point of view and what obstacles were encountered. The research method used in this research was descriptive-qualitative method with questionnaires and interviews as instruments. As a result, there were three obstacles in the implementation of online learning, namely quotas and signals, dependence on parents, and boredom of students in the learning process. The media used by the teachers were WhatsApp, Zoom Meeting, Edmodo, Google Classroom, Google Meet, Google Form, and Youtube. All of them hope that face-to-face class activities as usual can be carried out soon because the effectiveness of learning is better if it is done face-to-face.

Authors: Ahmad Habib Al Fikry
Published: August 2022

Today, online gender-based violent crime is a global crisis phenomenon. This crime that takes human rights is spreading like cancer cells because it is in line with the development of the world which is closely related to advances in information and communication technology. This condition then places humans to have an attachment to these entities in everyday life. The coherence is the increasing incidence of these crimes that have transcended the scale of the crisis through the dimensions of cyberspace that give rise to complexity. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the legal system that focuses on victims of online gender-based violence. The aims of this paper are: (i) to explain online gender-based violence as a crime in cyberspace; and (ii) describe the framework for strengthening the legal system to combat online gender-based violence in Indonesia. The author uses a normative juridical writing method. The results show that: (i) online gender-based violence is part of crime in cyberspace; and (ii) the framework for strengthening the legal system is carried out through a 3-point approach, including aspects of the system, legal culture, and access to justice. These three aspects are carried out as a form of preventive and repressive efforts so that online gender-based violent crime law enforcement can work effectively. In addition to empowering women and reducing the number of crime cases, through this comprehensive framework, crime victims can obtain legal protection so that their rights can be fulfilled.

Published: August 2022

Mathematical communication skills are very important for students, especially for elementary school students. Students' communication skills in each student are always different, as are different learning styles for each student. The purpose of this study is to describe the mathematical communication process carried out by students in each type of learning style they have. The learning styles referred to refer to Honey-Mumford, namely; (1) Theoretical; (2) Pragmatic; (3) Activist; and (4) Reflective. The research was carried out at SDN 44 Ampenan, with the subjects being all of the fifth-grade students, totaling 39 students. Data collection was carried out by providing 2 instruments, namely a learning style questionnaire and math problems followed by semi-structured interviews to students who had finished. The results showed that the number of students with theoretical learning styles was the highest and students with active learning styles were the least. The results of the study also show that there are differences in mathematical communication in each learning style, but mathematical communication errors made by all types of learning styles are errors in writing formulas and conclusion sentences

Mathematical Calculus Modeling in Improving the Teaching Performance of Shot Put
Authors: Chen Liang , Chen Jike
Published: August 2022

The article applies mathematical calculus modeling to analyze the force of shot put. We emphatically analyzed the relationship between the angle of the shot and the initial velocity and calculated the motion trajectory equation of the shot put. The above research results are used to assist in the analysis and help improve the teaching performance of sports shot put. The study found that different forces have different effects on the horizontal displacement of the shot. Under the comprehensive force analysis, the horizontal velocity gradually decreases with time, and under the gravity analysis, the horizontal velocity of the shot is constant. The horizontal displacement of the shot put is related to the shooting angle and initial speed. Under the comprehensive force analysis, the influence of air resistance and buoyancy on the throwing distance is different due to the different combinations of shooting angle and initial speed.

Social media use in international marketing: Impact on brand and firm performance
Authors: Witek-Hajduk Marzanna K. , Zaborek Piotr
Published: August 2022

This research investigates the influence of brand and customer orientations on social media (SM) marketing engagement and how applications of SM in international marketing affect brand and firm performance in foreign markets. The study relies on a survey of a representative sample of 245 medium and large companies using SM in international branding. Performance metrics include an index of brand performance (BP) in a foreign market and return on assets (ROA). Structural equation modeling analysis reveals the overall effect of SM use in international branding as positive, with brand-image creation and market research being significant contributors to brand and firm performance in a foreign market. SM effectiveness is negatively moderated by foreign partner involvement and centralization degree. Firms co-owned by foreign entities turn out to be more successful than their Polish-only counterparts. Of the two antecedents of SM international marketing engagement, customer orientation is significant for all firms, while brand orientation is meaningful only for those with foreign capital.
Surge-type Uisu glacier and its undisturbed forefield relief, Eastern Pamir, Tajikistan
Authors: Gądek Bogdan , Rojan Elżbieta , Suska-Malawska Małgorzata
Published: August 2022

The surge-type Uisu glacier and its forefield in the Tajik part of Eastern Pamir are described. To this end, 1977–2019 Landsat satellite imagery, the DEM, and a high-resolution orthophotomap were used, and detailed geomorphological mapping was carried out. The results show that the present-day position of the terminus of the studied glacier results from a surge that occurred before 1947. Currently, the glacier is losing mass. However, despite the visible characteristics of its thawing, the extent of the terminal zone has remained stable for several decades. Outside the glacier, there are no glacial landforms. This indicates that advances of surging glaciers may not create any surge-diagnostic features in their forefields.

Background: Dyspepsia is a common complaint in clinical practice. Correlation between Helicobacterpylori (H. pylori) and functional dyspepsia had been reported in many studies, but studies that analyzed theseverity of dyspepsia and H. pylori were limited and the results were controversial. This study is about to knowthe correlation between the severity of dyspepsia and H. pylori infection. Method: A retrospective descriptive analysis to patients with dyspepsia at Permata Bunda Hospital, Medan was done in 2010-2014. Simple random sampling was done to get 44 patients with dyspepsia, 22 are H. pylori positive and 22 patients are H. pylori negative. The severity of dyspepsia assessed with Porto Alegre DyspepticSymptoms Questionnaire (PADYQ) scoring instrument. Univariate and bivariate analysis (Chi-square andSpearman correlation) were done using SPSS version 22. Results: Epigastric pain is the most common symptom in dyspepsia patients. There is a correlation betweenulcer type dyspepsia and H. pylori infection (p = 0.030), while dysmotility type and mixed type were not correlated.The severity of epigastric pain has significant positive correlation with H. pylori (r = 0.386; p = 0.01), while theseverity of other symptoms such as nausea, vomit, and abdominal bloating have negative correlation with H.pylori. Dyspepsia total scoring is significantly lower in H. pylori positive than in H. pylori negative (p = 0.033). Conclusion: There is a positive correlation between the severity of epigastric pain and H. pylori infection,negative correlation between the severity of nausea, vomit, and abdominal bloating and H. pylori infection, andcorrelation between lower dyspepsia total scoring and H. pylori infection.Keywords: dyspepsia, Helicobacter pylori, PADYQ, epigastric pain

Portal Hypertensive Gastropathy: the Twilight Zone

As one of the major complication of liver cirrhosis, portal hypertensive gastropathy (PHG) should be an interesting topic to study. Until now the exact mechanism on how this phenomenon happened is yet, not clear.1 The occurrence of PHG is quite high in patient liver cirrhosis and some relationship occurred between PHG and portal hypertension. In liver cirrhosis patients, PHG may be closely associated with hepatic vein pressure gradient(HVPG).2 However, PHG may not be directly associated with portal pressure because the mucosal damage not linearly correlated with portal hypertension, hence other mechanism involved in the etiopathogenesis of PHG. In this regards, the most important factor related to PHG is the pressure in the splanchnic vasculature. Based on histopathology study in PHG, vascular congestion resulted from increased portal pressure reduced oxygen for gastric mucosa, hence exposed mucosal layer to irritants.2 Moreover, the congestion somehow increased the production of nitric oxide, either through the shearstress locally or as the result of increase production of splanchnic vasculature due to portal hypertension.

Background: Chronic atrophic gastritis is a well-established precursor of gastric cancer. The development of atrophic chronic gastritis is multifactorial, involving the environment as well as host responses to the Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. The aim of this study is to determine prevalence and risk factors of chronic atrophic gastritis.Method: The study was a cross sectional study on gastritis patients admitted to endoscopy units at Adam Malik General Hospital and Permata Bunda Hospital, Medan, from May-October 2014. A simple random sampling was performed to obtain 50 patients. Data concerning sociodemographic factors and H. pylori status were collected. H. pylori were considered positive from the positive results of the campylobacter like organism (CLO) test. Univariate and bivariate analyses were performed using the SPSS 22 with 95% confidence interval. Bivariat analysis was performed using a Chi-square test. Results: Prevalence of chronic atrophic gastritis was 40%. There were associations between age and chronic atrophic gastritis (95% CI = 1.05-2.80; p = 0.021; OR = 1.73), body mass index and chronic atrophic gastritis (95% CI = 1.1-3.1; p = 0.011; OR = 1.85), and H.pylori infection and chronic atrophic gastritis (95% CI = 1.23-4.88; OR = 2.45; p = 0.001). There were no associations between gender, ethnicity, or rural-urban classification and chronic atrophic gastritis (p 0.05).Conclusion: Elderly status, low BMI, and H. pylori infection are risk factors for the development of chronic atrophic gastritis. Keywords: chronic atrophic gastritis, Helicobacter pylori, gastric atrophy, body mass index
