Core Tip Approximately 10% of asymptomatic subjects with normal blood tests have small intestinal mucosal breaks. A reanalysis of our previous studies showed that small intestinal mucosal breaks were strongly correlated with body mass index, were significantly more prevalent in Helicobacter pylori-infected individuals and were more prevalent in men. These may be risk factors for small intestinal mucosal breaks. Overall, 1-2 small ulcerative lesions in asymptomatic patients are considered to be in the normal range and do not require close examination, and it is assumed that a follow-up medical examination is required.
