Brief Summary Template for the Study:
The goal of this observational study is to examine the relationship between digestive symptom scores, serum pepsinogen indices, and histopathological OLGA and OLGIM systematic staging of the gastric mucosa in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis(CAG), aiming to determine the degree of correlation between clinical manifestations, non-invasive laboratory tests, and the gold standard of diagnostic histopathology.To evaluate the comprehensive therapy, readiness and acceptance of acupuncture, utilization rates of various acupuncture therapies, self-assessed efficacy of acupuncture, and endoscopic histopathological alterations in patients with CAG.According to the aforementioned study, it is anticipated to enhance the optimization of acupuncture clinical research protocols for chronic atrophic gastritis, improve treatment efficacy, and offer more effective and rational therapy alternatives for patients.The main question it aims to answer is:
To determine if the outcomes of combined serologic testing of symptoms in patients with CAG can serve as a method for monitoring disease development and if long-term follow-up can be supported？
A group of participants with recorded GI symptom scores and blood pepsinogen levels will respond to online survey questions regarding the severity of their chronic atrophic gastritis progression over the course of 1 year.
This study is a multicenter cross-sectional pilot survey

| Correlation between gastrointestinal symptom scores combined with serum pepsinogen indexes and histopathologic OLGA and OLGIM systematic staging of gastric mucosa in patients with CAG | The investigators gathered clinical data on the overall condition, occupation, personal history, family history, H. pylori infection, gastrointestinal symptom scores, serum pepsinogen index, gastroscopy reports, pathological findings, and other biological characteristics of CAG patients, along with data pertaining to acupuncture treatment. The investigators then analyzed the correlation between the gastrointestinal symptom scores, the serum pepsinogen index, and the gastric mucosal histopathology OLGA and OLGIM. The investigators examined the relationship between gastrointestinal symptom scores, serum pepsinogen levels, and the histopathological OLGA and OLGIM stages of gastric mucosa to determine the correlation between clinical manifestations, non-invasive laboratory tests, and the definitive diagnostic standard of histopathology, thereby offering support for clinicians. | Gastroscopy and pathology reports within one year, serology and symptom assessment within one week of participant enrollment |

| Correlation coefficients of relevant exposure factors (including acupuncture treatment status) with OLGA, OLGIM pathologic stage and GI symptom score, respectively | With the goal of further optimizing the clinical research protocols of acupuncture for CAG, improving the therapeutic effects, and offering a more effective and affordable treatment option for patients with chronic atrophic gastritis, the investigators examined the overall treatment of CAG patients, willingness and acceptance of acupuncture treatment, application rate of various acupuncture therapies, self-perceived acupuncture efficacy, and endoscopic histopathological changes. |
