Sir, Eradication therapies for Helicobacter pylori infection are not yet satisfactory, although many therapeutic strategies have been studied to improve the eradication rate for this infection. Children rarely have symptoms of this infection and, therefore, are a suitable group in which to assess therapies that are non-aggressive compared with those used for adults. 1 The use of probiotics in t...

BACKGROUND The use of quadruple therapy for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication is a highly efficacious, gold standard regimen. However, according to a number of studies, this regimen has numerous compliance problems and adverse effects. In the current study we have evaluated the H. pylori eradication rate following a quadruple therapy that included omeprazole, bismuth subcitrate, amoxi...

helicobacter pylori, the most important cause of gastritis and peptic ulcer, has recently been associated with several extradigestive diseases. the aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of helicobacter pylori infection and effects of bacterium eradication in 50 patients affected by idiopathic chronic urticaria. helicobacter pylori was assessed by serology or biopsy and urease test or 1...

OBJECTIVES: Current nonendoscopic tests for Helicobacter pylori include antibody tests and the urea breath test. After the administration of C-urea, serum bicarbonate measurement can identify those infected with H. pylori. In this study, our aims were to determine the accuracy of the urea blood test, and to compare the accuracy of the urea blood test with that of rapid urease testing of gastric...

Detection of Helicobacter pylori after triple therapy is usually carried out by either rapid urease test (RUT), urea breath test (UBT), histology, bacterial isolation, and single round PCR or serological tests. In this study, antral biopsy specimens from 25 patients were tested for H. pylori by RUT, culture, histology, and nested PCR in their antral biopsy specimens before and after treatment. ...
