Metronidazole-resistant Helicobacter pylori is more prevalent in patients with nonulcer dyspepsia than in peptic ulcer patients in a multiethnic Asian population.
The trend of increasing prevalence of antibiotic resistance among Helicobacter pylori strains has been suggested as a cause of the failure of treatment of H. pylori infections. In this study, 120 of 211 antral biopsy specimens from patients with dyspeptic symptoms were found to harbor H. pylori. The isolates from the 120 specimens were tested by the agar dilution method, and 38 (31.7%) were fou...
متن کاملPsychological factors in patients with peptic ulcer and functional dyspepsia
Abstract Background: The role of psychological factors in peptic ulcer disease (PUD) and functional dyspepsia (FD) has not been clearly determined. In this study the role of conflict management styles, psychiatric symptoms, and alexithymia were assessed in patients with PUD and FD and in the healthy individuals. Methods: Ninety subjects [30PUD (15 women, 15 men), 30 FD (15 women, 15 men), and...
متن کاملPrevalence of Helicobacter pylori Infection in Patients with Peptic Ulcer Diseases and Non-Ulcer Dyspepsia
BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori is known to be a cause of active chronic gastritis and has been proposed as an etiologic factor in the development of peptic ulcer disease, but controversy continues regarding the pathogenic importance and mechanism. We examined the prevalence of H. pylori infection in patients with peptic ulcers and non-ulcer dyspepsia. METHOD 749 patients (373 with duodenal ul...
متن کاملGenome Sequencing of 10 Helicobacter pylori Pediatric Strains from Patients with Nonulcer Dyspepsia and Peptic Ulcer Disease
We present draft genome sequences of 10 Helicobacter pylori clinical strains isolated from children. This will be important for future studies of comparative genomics in order to better understand the virulence determinants underlying peptic ulcer disease.
متن کاملHistological Changes In Gastric Biopsies From Helicobacter Pylori-Infected Patients With And Without Peptic Ulcer
Background and Objective: Long period risk of gastric carcinoma in people affected with chronic Helicobacter pylori gastritis is 5 times more than normal people. Perhaps histological changes due to helicobacter pylori infection could be used for screening people at risk of gastric carcinoma and peptic ulcer. Materials and Methods: This study has been carried out as a cross...
