Atrophic gastritis (also known as Type A or Type B Gastritis more specifically) is a process of chronic inflammation of the stomach mucosa, leading to loss of gastric glandular cells and their eventual replacement by intestinal and fibrous tissues.ype A gastritis primarily affects the body/fundus of the stomach, and is more common with pernicious anemia. Type B gastritis primarily affects the antrum, and is more common with H. pylori infection.
Delayed gastric emptying, or gastroparesis, represents the far end of the spectrum of dysmotility disorders collectively referred to as diabetic gastropathy or the diabetic stomach. The diabetic stomach is a manifestation of diabetic autonomic neuropathy. It is characterized by potentially debilitating gastrointestinal symptoms and can also interfere with glucoregulation by contributing to a vicious cycle of delayed emptying of food or oral medications.
