The ABC method combined with Helicobacter pylori antibody and serum pepsinogen is a useful predictive method for stomach cancer. Kyoto classification is a new grading system for endoscopic gastritis. However, the consistency of the Kyoto score with the ABC method remains unclear. The Kyoto classification score, which ranges from 0 to 8, is based on the following findings: atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, diffuse redness, nodularity, and enlarged folds. Furthermore, we defined a simplified Kyoto classification score as the sum of scores of just atrophy and intestinal metaplasia. The association between the Kyoto classification score and the ABC method was analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis and Steel-Dwass tests. A total of 307 subjects were enrolled. Kyoto classification scores were similar in groups B, C, and D, while scores in group A were significantly lower than those of the other groups. The simplified Kyoto classification score showed the same stepwise increase as the classification of the ABC method. In conclusion, unlike the Kyoto classification score, the simplified Kyoto score showed the same significant stepwise increase as the classification of the ABC method.
