Figure 2 Prevalence of Operative Link on Gastritis Assessment, endoscopic grading of gastric intestinal metaplasia, and Operative Link on Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia scores, respectively in the 85 patients before and after Helicobacter pylori eradication. OLGA: Operative Link on Gastritis Assessment; EGGIM: Endoscopic grading of gastric intestinal metaplasia; OLGIM: Operative Link on Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia.

Figure 3 Gastric white-light endoscopy, narrow band imaging and histological evaluation before Helicobacter pylori eradication. A, B: Gastritis during white-light endoscopy and narrow band imaging assessment of corpus before Helicobacter pylori eradication; and C: Histological evaluation: moderately atrophic chronically active gastritis with lymphoplasmacellular infiltration of the lamina propria and foveolar epithelium hyperplasia (fundus before Helicobacter pylori eradication. Sections of 3 microns colored with Hematoxylin Eosin and Giemsa respectively. Magnifications: × 10).
