OBJECTIVE The study begins by analysing the psychometric properties of the Nepean Dyspepsia Index-Short Form (NDI-SF), before moving on to study quality of life in patients with functional dyspepsia (FD) and the psychopathological features that underlie the disorder in three groups of subjects: patients with eating disorders (ED), psychiatric patients (non-ED), and a group of students, all of w...

background: endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract is the most accurate method for the diagnosis of most disease conditions associated with dyspepsia. however, endoscopy involves some discomfort, significant social inconvenience, and cost. attempts to identify those patients most likely to benefit from endoscopy have met with variable success. to evaluate endoscopic findings of the upper...

The aim of our study was to evaluate the clinical performance a monotherapy by Enterococcus faecium-based probiotics and indigenous autoprobiotics against H. pylori associated dyspepsia.
 Materials methods. There were examined 95 patients with dyspepsia. entire patient cohort underwent evaluation including filling out questionnaire assess dyspepsia symptoms before after treatment, gastric ...

OBJECTIVES It has remained controversial how to manage patients who present with symptoms of dyspepsia. Should all dyspeptic patients undergo a radiological or endoscopic procedure to diagnose peptic ulcer, or would a serological test for Helicobacter pylori provide sufficient evidence to start all H. pylori-positive patients on empirical antibiotic therapy? METHODS The outcome of serological...

OBJECTIVE This study evaluated Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy in terms of symptomatic response in patients with functional dyspepsia. On the other hand, we analyzed the importance of histologic findings as a predictor of treatment response. In particular, we studied whether antral gastritis (which is associated with peptic ulcer) may predict a greater symptomatic response to Helicobact...

Background/Aims To assess the long-term effect of Helicobacter pylori eradication on symptomatic improvement according to the type of antibiotic and the duration of treatment in H. pylori-associated functional dyspepsia. Methods We searched Pubmed, Embase, CINAHL, and the Cochrane library databases for randomized controlled trials written in English and undertaken up to August 2016 that met o...

Introduction Dyspepsia is a common symptom with an extensive differential diagnosis. Endoscopy alone may miss serious mucosal lesions in about 15 to 30% of cases. The aim was to determine histopathological features of gastric and duodenal mucosal biopsies in patients with dyspepsia and normal looking upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy. Materials and methods One hundred and five adult patie...

Background: The association of Helicobacter pylori with functional dyspepsia is widely reported, but it remains unclear whether H. pylori infection actually causes symptoms or is just an associated finding. Aims: This study was conducted to determine the role of H. pylori in causing symptoms of functional dyspepsia and to observe any improvement in symptoms after eradication of H. pylori. Setti...
