background: helicobacter pylori is a common cause of chronic infection in human beings. the infection has universal prevalence and contracts all age groups. probably, these bacteria are the cause of the most common chronic bacterial infection in man and have infected approximately half of the world population. the urease of these bacteria degrades the urea in stomach’s mucosa to ammoniac which ...

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 ...

INTRODUCTION Recent studies found that Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection plays a role in cardiometabolic disorders. The objective of this study was to assess the association between H. pylori infection and overweight or obesity in a Chinese population. METHODOLOGY A cross-sectional analysis using data from the subjects who underwent a health examination between January 2010 and June 2...

BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is reported to be associated with various extragastrointestinal conditions such as insulin resistance, diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome. H. pylori infection and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are associated with oxidative stress, this cross-relation between H. pylori induced infection in T2DM and oxidative damage is still debated. Th...

PURPOSE Impaired control of gastric juice secretion is observed in chronic gastritis due to Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. G cells are stimulated by such cytokines as tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha), interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) and interleukin-8 (IL-8). The number of D cells producing somatostatin decreases simultaneously. An increase in gastrin levels could also depend on alkali...

The recent paper by Rotimi and colleagues 1 does not mention the acridine orange stain 2 when comparing staining methods for the identification of Helicobacter pylori. The acri-dine orange stain uses ultraviolet fluores-cence in the identification of bacteria. The typical curved morphology of H pylori can easily be diVerentiated from other bacteria. I have used this quick, cheap, and reliable s...
