Evaluation of frequency polymorphism Interleukin 1B gene in patients with peptic ulcer and chronic gastritis

Introduction: Helicobacter pylori is the main cause of chronic inflammation and peptic ulcer. More than half of the world population is afflicted with Helicobacter, while only 20% of people show the clinical symptoms of the disease. Genes encoding the cytokines interleukin (IL)-1B play a key role in the inflammatory responses of gastric mucus. This study aims to analyze polymorphism in the IL-1...

Comparison of demographic, clinical and endoscopic characteristics of peptic ulcer due to Helicobacter Pylori and NSAIDs
