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-sectional process and we compared histological changes observed in helicobacter pylori chronic gastritis in 30 patients with peptic ulcer and 30 patients without the ulcer and then classified them according to sydney scoring system, and after collecting data, we analyzed them by spss software. results: sixty percent of patients with ulcer were male and forty percent were female. in addition, 56.7% of patients without ulcer were male and 43/3% were female without a statistically significant difference (p = 0.793). mean age in ulcer group was 56.4 years and in non-ulcer group was 48.9 years that there was no significant statistical difference (p = 0.057). chronic gastritis frequency increases within people in their sixth decade and after that. there was no significant difference for degree of infection with helicobacter pylori (p = 0.346), metaplasia (p =0.885), chronicity (p = 0.796) and degree of activity (p = 0.249), atrophy (p = 0.781) in patients with or without ulcer. conclusion: there was no significant difference in any of the variables of the study including degree of infection with helicobacter pylori, chronicity, disease activity and intestinal metaplasia between both groups with and without peptic ulcer.

Determination of Helicobacter pylori virulence-associated genes in duodenal ulcer and gastric biopsies

Background: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori or Hp) has been strongly associated with the peptic ulcer diseases, chronic gastritis, ulcers, and gastric cancer. Genes associated with pathogenicity have been designated for H. pylori, and some of them appear to be related to more severe clinical consequences of the infection. The present study was conducted to determine cagA, vacA, cagE, iceA1, oipA...

Helicobacter pylori infection in peptic ulcer disease and gastric malignancy.

Helicobacter pylori infection is the world's most common chronic infection in humans and is the cause of most gastritis cases. This infection is accepted as the etiology of the majority of peptic ulcers. It has been implicated as a significant contributing factor in the development of gastric malignancy--both gastric MALT lymphoma and gastric adenocarcinoma. Both endoscopic and non-endoscopic t...

Helicobacter pylori, peptic ulcer and gastric cancer in China.

INTRODUCTION Recent epidemiological evidence supports a strong relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and gastric cancer [1-11]. The relative risk for cancer with an infection of five years and over is in the region of three to six (Table 1). The identification of almost universal coexistence of H. pylori related antral gastritis in patients with duodenal ulcer disease [12, 13] and ...

THE ASSOCIATION OF CAMPYLOBACTER PYLORI (HELICOBACTER PYLORI) WITH GASTRITIS AND PEPTIC ULCER

We studied the relationship between gastroduodenal inflammation and the presence of Campylobaeter pylori from biopsy specimens of the gastric mucosa in 91 patients with gastritis with or without ulcers and 9 controls, healthy or suffering from other diseases. 68 of the patients were positive for the presence of C. pylori in their gastric mucosa. C. pylori was confirmed bacteriohistological...
