The Kyoto Classification of Gastritis was based on the sum of scores of the five endoscopic findings and ranges from 0 to 8. According to previous research [8], gastric cancer risk stratification according to Kyoto Classification of Gastritis scoring system is as follows: regarded as low risk, regarded as medium risk, and regarded as high risk.
