| Core Tip |
Characteristics of gastric cancer and gastric mucosa in Mongolian patients were observed. Approximatery half of the Mongolian cancers were located in the upper part of the stomach. The infection rate of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) was higher in Mongolians than Japanese (75.9% and 48.3%, respectively, P < 0.0001). Mongolians were infected with non-East Asian-type H. pylori strains. Both atrophic score and intestinal metaplasia score were lower in H. pylori infected Mongolians than in Japanese (P < 0.0001). The type of gastritis changed from antrum-predominant gastritis to corpus-predominant gastritis with age in both populations.
