Abstract | Background: Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study enrolled 273 participants from June 2008 to November 2019. All participants underwent a gastroscopy procedure and three tests including serum PG test, pathology test, and Hp- Igg Elisa test. The Kimura-Takemoto classification and OLGA system were used to classify the mild versus moderate-severe atrophic gastritis. Receiver Operating Characteristic curve was used to assess the value of PGI, PGII and PGR. Results: Based on Kimura-Takemoto classification, the AUC of PGI and PGR was 0.635 (p = 0.008, 95% CI 0.554-0.716) and 0.766 (p < 0.001, 95% CI 0.676-0.857) respectively. The best cut-off values were PGI ≤69.0 and PGR ≤4.6 (sensitivity: 73%, specificity: 83.9%, positive predictive value: 41.5%, negative predictive value: 95.2%, accuracy: 82.4%). According to the OLGA system, the AUC of PGI and PGR was 0.612 (p = 0.004, 95% CI 0.540-0.684) and 0.689 (p < 0.001, 95% CI 0.621-0.758) respectively. The best cut-off values were PGI ≤63.5 and PGR ≤5.2 (sensitivity: 49.4%, specificity: 82.1%, positive predictive value: 52.1%, negative predictive value: 80.5%, accuracy: 72.9%). Conclusions: The serum pepsinogen II and pepsinogen I/II ratio had reliable diagnostic value for screening of moderate and severe atrophic gastritis among Vietnamese population. Further research was recommended to focus on larger scale to improve the diagnostic yield and to continue finding the cut-off values for diagnosis of gastric cancer among Vietnamese population.
