message: Has anyone come across evidence that colonization by a microorganism in the mucus gel layer of the stomach induces infiltration of immune cells in the mucus gel?  I've seen reports on the in vivo distribution of H. felis in the mucus gel of mice and that it induces mild gastritis, but it is unclear in the document where these immune cells are.

message: The article breaks down gastritis into erosive vs non erosive.  The issue is much more complicated than this.  "CLASSIFICATION OF GASTRITIS AND GASTROPATHY — Several classifications of gastritis and gastropathy (such as the Sydney system) [5] have been proposed [5-10]. However, classification remains controversial because of gaps in knowledge of etiology and pathogenesis, variation in nomenclature, and the coexistence of more than one type of gastritis or gastropathy in individual patients. Thus, comparisons across studies using different nomenclature can be difficult.  Most classification systems distinguish acute, short-term from chronic, long-term disease. The terms acute and chronic are also used to describe the type of inflammatory cell infiltrate. Acute inflammation is usually associated with neutrophilic infiltration, while chronic inflammation is usually characterized by mononuclear cells, chiefly lymphocytes, plasma cells, and macrophages. A practical clinicopathologic framework for the classification of gastritis and gastropathy based upon these factors can be proposed (show table 1) [8]."http://www.uptodate.com/online/content/topic.do?topicKey=acidpep/7980&selectedTitle=2~150&source=search_result
It then adds H. Pylori to the non erosive category.  The ref however says "H. pylori bacteria grow in the protective mucus layer of the stomach lining, where they are less exposed to the highly acidic juices produced by the stomach. Virtually all people who have H. pylori infection have gastritis, which may affect the entire stomach or only the lower part (antrum). Infection can sometimes lead to erosive gastritis. H. pylori contributes to ulcer formation by increasing acid production, interfering with the normal defenses against stomach acid, and producing toxins."http://www.merck.com/mmhe/sec09/ch121/ch121b.html
This page is dealing with a medical disease which mean the data on the topic is huge.  And many of the references should refer to peer reviewed and published academic papers.  Pubmed is a great source for abstract and will sometime give you the whole copy free. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez
"Other medicine" in the lead is very vague...  Are we talking antibiotics?  Are we taking H2 blockers, PPI...
No mention is made about cancer.  "Metaplasia is highly relevant to the pathogenesis of atrophic gastritis and to its complications (eg, pernicious anemia, gastric ulcer, and gastric cancer)."

thread_title: Section on history and how this intersects with culture

message: One needs to write from a neutral POV.  When one says "doctors may recommend".  This is from the patients POV and should be avoided.  One should rather say for example that PPI have been found to help however many people they help, but there are concerns about C. dif for example.--Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 18:41, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Sections the article should contain

message: I would strongly advise against this article being made GA. For one thing, the references are completely unsuitable per WP:MEDRS. Some of the language employed is overly lay-oriented (e.g. the use of "B12 shots" for vitamin B12 injections). Essential topics and terms are not covered, e.g. the concept of melaena is alluded to but the term is not identified. JFW | T@lk 14:42, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  gastritis 

message: The sentence which introduces this article reads "Gastritis is an inflammation of the lining of the stomach, sike. It doesnt and has many possible causes."
Reads fine up to the word "stomach".  Don't understand how the word "sike" fits into the context of this subject, and following with the sentence "it doesn't (which needs an apostrophe BTW) and has many possible causes", comes across as unprofessional and in any case, given the use of the word "sike" in the previous sentence, doesn't make sense anyway.
Something appears to be missing here, i.e., a description as to the possible causes of Gastritis or something that would provide context for the statement "....and has many possible causes".  Otherwise I would omit everything after the word "stomach", and then follow that with the sentence that discusses possible causes.

thread_title: secondary sources on asymptomatic gastritis

message: Hi folks, so I'm reading in some papers and reviews that the two terms coincide and others negate that saying for exemple that: "The term acute gastritis is not specific for an etiology but is used to indicate gastritis with an acute clinical presentation, with symptoms that promptly resolve if the underlying condition is corrected. This term should not be confused with active gastritis, with the latter term indicating the presence of neutrophils." ref= Torbenson M. (2019) Common Types of Gastritis. In: Zhang L., Chandan V., Wu TT. (eds) Surgical Pathology of Non-neoplastic Gastrointestinal Diseases. Springer, Cham p122
I agree with making the two term distinct, and therefore changing the body text of acute gastritis and maybe adding something on active gastritis. Thanks Walidou47 (talk) 11:33, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
