Prevention Of Stomach Cancer

Amount of stomach cancer has decreased because of the following elements:

Better socio-economic needs

The widespread use of refrigeration for food preservation

Adopt a diet rich in fruits and vegetables

In areas where the incidence of stomach cancer remains high, such as Japan, the selection of programs including undergraduate and GI barium, survival rates, more recently, endoscopy has improved.

Doctors are finding more cases at an early stage of development.

The elimination of Helicobacter pylori infection in patients with peptic ulcer disease may also reduce the rate of stomach cancer.

It was suggested that people who had portions of their stomachs removed for 20 years or older should receive endoscopies a year. This is due to increased risk of stomach cancer after the surgery.

Evidence does not support mass screening of populations with low rates of stomach cancer.
