متن کاملHelicobacter pylori Eradication in Adult Patients with Acute Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP)
Background and Objective: Different studies have investigated the link between helicobacter pylori and extra digestive diseases such as idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. However, the relationship between ITP and H pylori is less clear. Most of the studies have focused on H pylori eradication in chronic ITP, so we focused on the effect of H pylori eradication on chronicity of ITP in adult pat...
متن کاملHelicobacter pylori infection and childhood idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura.
BACKGROUND Several studies showed some chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) patients with complete platelet recovery after Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication and cited the cause of persistent thrombocytopenia as inability to eradicate H. pylori. So we studied H. pylori infection status in pediatric ITP patients at diagnosis and address whether such infection played a role ...
متن کاملChronic Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia Purpura and Helicobacter pylori Eradication: A case study
Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an immune-mediated thrombocytopenia. ITP is the result of accelerated platelet destruction by the reticuloendothelial system, primarily the spleen. The prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection and the effect of its eradication were monitored in an ITP patient over a period of 12 months. Eradication of Helicobacter pylori led to the increased plate...
