To assess the predictive value for chronic autoimmune gastritis (AIG) of the combined assay of anti-parietal-cell antibodies (PCA), anti-intrinsic-factor antibodies (IFA), anti-<jats:italic>Helicobacter pylori<\/jats:italic>(Hp) antibodies, and measurement of blood gastrin.<jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>. We studied 181 consecutive patients with anemia, due to iron deficiency resistant to oral replacement therapy or to vitamin B12 deficiency.<jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. 83 patients (45.8%) tested positive for PCA and underwent gastroscopy with multiple gastric biopsies. On the basis of the histological diagnosis, PCA-positive patients were divided into 4 groups: (1) 30 patients with chronic atrophic gastritis; they had high concentrations of PCA and gastrin and no detectable IFA; (2) 14 subjects with metaplastic gastric atrophy; they had high PCA, IFA, and gastrin; (3) 18 patients with nonspecific lymphocytic inflammation with increased PCA, normal gastrin levels, and absence of IFA; (4) 21 patients with multifocal atrophic gastritis with \u201cborderline\u201d PCA, normal gastrin, absence of IFA and presence of anti-Hp in 100% of the cases.<jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>. The assay of four serological markers proved particularly effective in the diagnostic classification of gastritis and highly correlated with the histological profile. As such, this laboratory diagnostic profile may be considered an authentic \u201cserological biopsy.\u201d<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2012\/520970","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,29]],"date-time":"2012-11-29T16:25:15Z","timestamp":1354206315000},"page":"1-5","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":43,"title":["Clinical Usefulness of the Serological Gastric Biopsy for the Diagnosis of Chronic Autoimmune Gastritis"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2012","author":[{"given":"Antonio","family":"Antico","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratorio Analisi Chimico-Cliniche, Ospedale Civile, 35013 Cittadella, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marilina","family":"Tampoia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratorio di Patologia Clinica, Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria, Policlinico di Bari, 70124 Bari, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Danilo","family":"Villalta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Allergologia e Immunologia Clinica, Azienda Ospedaliera S.
