Helicobacter pylori is a spiral-shaped gram-negative bacterium that infects half of the world’s population and is the main cause of chronic gastritis, gastric ulcer and gastric malignancies including gastric adenocarcinoma and mucus-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma [1,2]. Helicobacter pylori is the most common human pathogen and a successful pathogen and has been specifically transmit...

The triple therapy of Helicobacter pylori eradication prevents repeated bleeding from stomach ulcer. The aim of this one-way blind prospective study was to evaluate the efficiency of the two-week triple therapy for Helicobacter pylori eradication in preventing renewed bleeding in patients with stomach ulcer within one year. This research included 60 hospitalized patients with bleeding stomach u...

BACKGROUND Over the past few years, the profile of Helicobacter pylori infection has changed in Japan. In particular, the relationship between H. pylori and gastric cancer has been demonstrated more clearly. Accordingly, the committee of the Japanese Society for Helicobacter Research has revised the guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of H. pylori infection in Japan. MATERIALS AND METHODS ...

Wei Tang Department of Surgery, Graduate School of Medicine, University of Tokyo, Tokyo 113-8655, Japan In this short correspondence, the authors hypothesized Helicobacter pylori infection may promote the development of immune response and thus improve survival rates of patients who have received complete resection of their tumors [1]. The authors based their hypothesis on the fact that patient...

[Objective] To explore the correlation between helicobacter pylori infection and several pathological features of gastritis, provide evidence for analysis diagnosis in associated gastritis. [Methods] We collected 180 patients with gastritis admitted to Seventh Affiliated Hospital Sun Yat-sen University from 2021 2022, make a retrospective their status H. PCR technology. Then we further detected...

BACKGROUND Platelet activation is consistently observed in animal models of Helicobacter pylori infection and could help to explain the alleged epidemiological association between H. pylori and coronary heart disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-two patients with recent acute coronary syndromes were enrolled. Helicobacter pylori-positive patients were randomized to receive a 7-day course of ...

Helicobacter pylori infection is now recognised as a worldwide problem. It is the most common cause of chronic gastritis, and is strongly linked to peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer. A comprehensive understanding of epidemiological ins and outs of H. pylori infection is very important in solving the patho-physiological enigma and might help in leading towards better management and prognos...

In a placebo controlled prospective clinical trial of bismuth salicylate in helicobacter pylori associated gastritis, 52 adult patients were randomly allocated to treatment with bismuth salicylate or placebo. Helicobacter pylori were totally cleared in 77% patients in bismuth group but none in placebo group (P less than 0.001). Resolution of gastritis (P less than 0.001) and improvement of symp...

Helicobacter pylori is a spiral-shaped bacterium that grows in the digestive tract and may be present in more than half of the world's population. The clinical features of Helicobacter pylori range from asymptomatic gastritis to gastrointestinal malignancy. Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is a low-grade B-cell marginal zone lymphoma and Helicobacter pylori has been detected in...
