About this study

The objective of this study is to observe gastric mucosal injuries in NSAID and non-NSAID users with magnetically-controlled capsule gastroscopy, and explore the effects of NSAIDs on gastric mucosal damage.

Read the detailed description

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are widely used in all kinds of people in China. A major limitation to their use is the adverse effects they cause on the gastrointestinal tract, including the formation of stomach lesions, ulcers due to stress reactions, and damage to the healing of gastric ulcers. The purpose of this prospective, single-center study was to monitor the gastric mucosal injury in patients with and without NSAIDs using magnetron capsule gastroscopy, and to explore the effect of NSaids on gastric mucosal injury.

For people taking NSAIDs, it is necessary to regularly detect gastric mucosal damage, and timely intervention treatment is required if relevant lesions are found, and the medication plan is adjusted. Magnetron capsule gastroscope has the advantages of comfort, safety, no anesthesia, no risk of cross infection, etc. It is highly accepted by the population, and is a beneficial supplement to traditional gastroscopy, so that some people with absolute or relative contraindications of traditional gastroscopy can get timely endoscopy, and can be diagnosed and treated early.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Gastric diseases detected (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
