aim : to evaluate the diagnostic value of helicobacter pylori stool antigen test before and after eradication background : there are different methods for diagnosis and follow up of helicobacter pylori infection, including invasive methods done with endoscopy and non invasive ones such as ubt and urine analysis antibody. one of non invasive new methods is analysis of helicobacter pylori stool a...

Helicobacter pylori prevalence is decreasing globally and prevalence of non H. pylori gastric ulcers is increasing. The following study was conducted to assess the prevalence of H. pylori in benign gastric ulcers in a sample of Sri Lankan patients. This was a cross-sectional study of 59 dyspeptic patients with benign gastric ulcers. Multiple endoscopic gastric biopsies were obtained and histolo...

Background: Polymorphisms in the immune related genes are important in the clinical outcome of Helicobacter pylori infection. Myeloperoxidase -463 G/A polymorphism has been shown to reduce enzyme expression and activity. Objective: the aim of the present study is to investigate the association of myeloperoxidase G-463A polymor-phism with clinical outcome of Helicobacter pylori infection. Method...

Helicobacter pylori is a worldwide spread bacterium, that invades the submucosal membrane of stomach via feco-oral or feco-fecal transmission, causing several gastric and duodenal diseases. The study aims to assess risk factors for symptomatic infection their epidemiological distribution. A cross-sectional was conducted from October 2020 May 2021 in Baquba, Iraq. It on sample outpatient patient...

Background and Aims: Several studies have shown that host genetic factors can be associated with the risk of developing Helicobacter pylori infections. Therefore, we evaluated the most prevalent toll-like receptors (TLRs) polymorphisms in Helicobacter pylori positive subjects and their possible role in susceptibility to Helicobacter pylori infections. Materials and Methods: Using related keywo...

Since old times plants have been a resource used by human beings an important sources of biologically active products. Recently, efforts have been made in order to identify new antiulcerogenic drugs from natural sources, having as the main target the Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium considered as the most important etiological agent of the human peptic ulcer. It has been shown to be a rich sour...

Objective(s): Treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection by common drugs may be associated with several problems such as antimicrobial resistance to commonly used antibiotics and side effects of employed drugs. Therefore, exploration of non-chemical compounds which are safer than chemical ones is becoming important as an alternative therapy. The purpose of this study w...
