Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is when gastric mucosa gets injured due to the increase of acid and pepsin enzyme. The common risk factors are infection Helicobacter pylori bacteria misused NSAIDs. This review article aims describe role caspase in PUD. Methods used selection articles PubMed. Caspase a protease enzyme that plays an apoptotic inflammatory reaction can be activated dimerized or cleaved...

host innate immunity can affect the clinical outcomes of helicobacter pylori infection, including gastritis, gastric ulcer, gastric adenocarcinoma, and malt lymphoma. nucleotide binding oligomerization domain (nod)-1 and -2 are two molecules of innate immunity which are involved in the host defense against h. pylori . this study aimed to evaluate the effect of the expression level of nod1 and n...

Substance use disorders (SUD) have been shown to be linked to various neuronal and behavioral impairments. In this study, we investigate whether there is a connection between the integrity of white matter (WM) and attachment styles as well as different affective states including spirituality in a group of patients diagnosed for poly-drug use disorder (PUD) in comparison to non-clinical controls...

BACKGROUND There is a close relationship between Helicobacter pylori (H pylori)-specific factors and different gastroduodenal diseases. The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of vacA d1, d2 genotypes in the H pylori isolates from patients with gastric adenocarcinoma, peptic ulcer disease (PUD) and gastritis in East Azerbaijan region, where the incidence of gastric cancer (GC) is ...

cigarettes smoked. In Israel, the lifetime prevalence of PUD is 89/1000 men (37), similar to that in the United States. Smokers or ex-smokers had a prevalence of PUD (primarily duodenal) of 10.2 percent compared to 6.2 percent of nonsmokers (25). These differences were highly significant. Medalie, et al. made the interesting observation that as the smoking habits of first-generation Israelis of...

Infection with Helicobacter pylori strains harboring determinants of pathogenicity may lead to a strong inflammatory response in gastric mucosa. In this work, we examined the frequency of the cagA, vacA and iceA genotypes in H. pylori strains isolated from Brazilian patients and correlated these with the clinical manifestations. H. pylori was isolated from 165 patients [30 with non-ulcer dyspep...

BACKGROUND Although Helicobacter pylori and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the main causes of peptic ulcers disease (PUD), recently the prevalence of idiopathic peptic ulcer (IPU) is increasing in most parts of the world. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of IPU in Kerman, the center of largest province in south-east Iran. METHODS We included 215 patients wi...

Objective This study aimed to find out prevalence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in peptic ulcer disease (PUD) which is highly endemic disease in Kashmir.Method This study consisted of 50 PUD patients and 30 asymptomatic volunteers. Peptic ulcer was diagnosed by endoscopic examination and H. pylori was detected by histology (using Giemsa stain), one minute endoscopy room test (OMERT) and mo...
