What are the causes of gastric tumors?

Gastric tumor is a common tumor disease, but many people do not understand how gastric tumor occurs, which will bring inconvenience to the prevention and treatment of gastric tumor. Therefore, we should first understand the cause of gastric tumor, so that we can better prevent the occurrence of gastric tumor.

1. Certain diseases are precancerous lesions of gastric tumors, such as gastric polyps, gastric ulcers, and atrophic gastritis. About 10% of patients may develop gastric tumors. For example, the incidence of gastric tumors in patients with pernicious anemia is 21.9 times higher than that of the general population. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the diagnosis and treatment of such patients to prevent the occurrence of gastric tumors.

2. The incidence of gastric tumors is closely related to the patient's living habits, occupation, drinking water, environmental soil, etc.

3. There is no definitive answer to the genetic problem of cancer, but the medical community has noticed its family tendency. For example, patients with multiple colon polyps have a high incidence of colon cancer, which is known as one of the causes of gastric tumors. However, whether it is hereditary or caused by a family living in the same environment and being affected by the same cancer-causing factors needs further analysis and research. Nevertheless, it reminds people that if there is a family history of cancer, they should pay attention to regular physical examinations and take preventive measures.

4. The risk of gastric tumors in patients infected with Helicobacter pylori (HP) is 6 times that of HP-negative people. HP can produce ammonia in the stomach: ammonia can neutralize gastric acid, and nitrates in the stomach can be converted into nitrites in an alkaline environment. Nitrites combine with secondary amines in food to form nitrosamines. Nitrosamines are strong carcinogens. The author once fed rats with diethylnitrosamine, and all rats developed gastric tumors, liver cancer or lung cancer after 8 months. The author has measured vegetables and foods on the market in Linpu Town. The results showed that a local "Sherry Red" pickled vegetable contained a particularly high level of nitrite. Therefore, it is good to eat less "pickled vegetables" on a regular basis, and the incidence of gastric tumors can also be reduced.

These are the causes of gastric tumors. If you want to prevent the occurrence of gastric tumors, you must take preventive measures in your daily life. If you find symptoms of gastric tumors, you should go to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time.
