What causes mid- to late-stage gastric cancer? Pay attention to these four points

There are many causes of middle and late stage gastric cancer, mainly including genetic factors, dietary factors, etc. In addition, chronic gastritis and Helicobacter pylori infection are also one of the causes of middle and late stage gastric cancer. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to a comprehensive examination after the onset of the disease so that symptomatic treatment can be given. During the treatment, you should also actively cooperate and regulate your emotions to facilitate the recovery of your body.

Regardless of the stage of gastric cancer, patients must take good care of the disease. In fact, the treatment of gastric cancer is the same as the treatment of most cancers. As long as the patient chooses the appropriate method according to his or her condition, a relatively satisfactory effect can be achieved. The symptoms of mid- and late-stage gastric cancer are obvious, and treatment should be started early. Let's take a look at what causes mid- and late-stage gastric cancer?
1. Genetic factors <br/>Most retrospective survey data believe that the role of genetic factors in the etiology of gastric cancer is relatively positive, with a clear tendency to familial aggregation. It is generally believed that the incidence of gastric cancer in the family members of gastric cancer patients is 4 times that of the control group. If a close relative with a blood relationship suffers from digestive tract cancer, it is important to pay attention to the examination work, because if there is a close relative, a gastroscopy should be performed regularly. Generally speaking, the closer the relationship, the higher the risk of gastric cancer. Especially when abdominal discomfort occurs, it is even more important to go for an immediate examination.
2. Dietary factors <br/>Diet is closely related to the pathogenesis of gastric cancer. In recent years, the incidence of gastric cancer in developed countries in Europe and America has been on a downward trend. This is mainly related to dietary factors. For example, eating too fast, overeating, eating too hot food, eating barbecue, high-salt, fried, pickled food, smoking and drinking frequently, etc.
3. Chronic gastritis Gastric cancer is closely related to chronic gastritis, especially atrophic gastritis. The occurrence of this type of gastric cancer is related to the severity of atrophic gastritis and the length of medical history. Due to atrophic gastritis, the function and structure of the mucosa are abnormal, the free acid in the gastric juice decreases, the bacteria in the gastric juice increase, and the synthesis of nitroso compounds increases. Nitroso compounds have been proven to cause gastric cancer. This is also the cause of gastric cancer.
4. Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection <br/>Helicobacter pylori infection in the stomach is one of the important causes of gastric cancer. The difference in HP bacteria species may lead to differences in the occurrence of gastric cancer. Therefore, you must pay attention to find that you feel uncomfortable and get checked in time. You should also adjust your life and do a good job of prevention.
