However, since the symptoms are localized to this organ, the typical symptoms of stomach problems include nausea, vomiting, bloating, cramps, diarrhea and pain. [en.wikipedia.org]

Clinical Features and Natural HistoryTop Patients may present with dyspepsia, nausea, emesis, or loss of appetite. [empendium.com]
Because a similar therapeutic response is also seen in children with functional dyspepsia (12), we wonder whether chemical gastropathy may be present in some children with dyspepsia. [journals.lww.com]
Characteristically, patients with Ménétrièr's disease are older than 60 years of age and have epigastric pain, weight loss, nausea, diarrhea, and dyspepsia, with or without a history of peptic ulcer disease. [annals.org]

Loss of Appetite
Symptoms include abdominal pain, loss of appetite, and weight loss. Diarrhea is also a symptom that can develop, so checking stools for the appearance of blood is important. [en.wikipedia.org]

Irritability
BACKGROUND: Gastric mucus is considered to play an essential role in gastric mucosal defense mechanisms, especially when irritants are present in the stomach. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Acute erosive gastropathy Acute erosive gastropathy may occur after contact with irritating substances, such as NSAIDS, alcohol, or cocaine. [niddk.nih.gov]
It is possible that chemical irritation caused by these medications may have played a role in pathogenesis of chemical gastropathy in some patients in our study. [journals.lww.com]
Diagnostic Crisis The PHG diagnosis through endoscopy has various entities that include lesions in gastric walls that are commonly found as a result of irritant injury due to some nonsteroids. Other considerations are GAVE or watermelon stomach. [news-medical.net]

Workup
METHODS: All consecutive patients with RYGB and a diagnosis of chronic abdominal pain, and a negative diagnostic workup (including physical examination, routine laboratory work, cross-sectional imaging, and standard upper endoscopy), who underwent device-assisted [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A complete laboratory workup evidenced normal complete blood cell count, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, sodium, and potassium. [care.diabetesjournals.org]
An extensive workup, including ultrasonography (cases 1-4 and 9), computed tomographic (cases 1-4 and 6-9), and 2-[fluorine-18]fluoro-2-deoxy- d -glucose positron emission tomographic scans (cases 2, 4, 6, and 8); colonoscopy (cases 2, 4-6, and 9); and [bloodjournal.org]
Treatment
Remnant gastropathy due to bile reflux is a treatable cause of chronic abdominal pain in RYGB patients, and ursodiol should be considered for empiric treatment in RYGB patients with unexplained chronic abdominal pain. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Patients receiving zinc sulfate had increased gastropathy risk compared with those receiving no treatment or d-penicillamine. [tandfonline.com]
Prognosis
Distinction from Menetrier's disease is emphasized as the condition is characterized by abrupt onset, short duration, eosinophila and good prognosis. The association with hypersensitivity as a possible etiology is more suggestive in this condition. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
According to our data, the presence of PHG could be used as an index of prognosis. However, the presence of PHG or the degree of PHG was not associated with the development of HCC. [bmcgastroenterol.biomedcentral.com]

Epidemiology
BACKGROUND: The epidemiology of reactive gastropathy and its relationship with other conditions of the gastrointestinal tract associated with NSAID use have not been evaluated. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Epidemiology The incidence of PUD in children is lower than that in adults. [pedsinreview.aappublications.org]
In contrast to H pylori gastritis, the surface epithelium lacked Ki67 expression and a downward elongation of the proliferative zone was noted.[4] Epidemiology[edit] Reactive gastropathy is the second most common pathologic diagnosis rendered on gastric [en.wikipedia.org]
Epidemiology The main cause of PHG is liver cirrhosis. Even though about 65% of patients with portal hypertension develops PHG, it occurs greatly in patients with liver diseases. [news-medical.net]

Prevention
Prevention of NSAID-related gastropathy is an important clinical issue, and therapeutic strategies for both the primary and secondary prevention of adverse events are continually evolving. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Propranolol was equally effective in preventing recurrent bleeding from gastritis and esophageal varices. [acpjc.acponline.org]
Reporting the symptoms to a doctor is recommended to prevent further complications. Cancers of the stomach are rare and the incidence has been declining worldwide. [en.wikipedia.org]
