BACKGROUND Efficacy of Helicobacter pylori stool antigen enzyme immunoassay (HpSA) and stool PCR was evaluated, before and after treatment, in a country with a high prevalence of H. pylori infection. METHODOLOGY A total of 52 patients with dyspeptic symptoms were included in the study. Antral biopsy was collected during pre- and post-therapy periods for rapid urease test (RUT) and PCR. Simila...
BACKGROUND Recent availability of tests for Helicobacter pylori antigens in stool samples has provided potentially useful tools for epidemiological studies and clinical settings. The aim of this study was to evaluate a monoclonal antibody-based H. pylori antigen stool test in the primary diagnosis of H. pylori infection, and to study the test performance after patients were treated with lanzopr...
Background/Aims The correlation between the Bristol stool form scale (BSFS) and colonic transit time (CTT) has been reported in Western populations. Our study aims to study the relationship between BSFS, stool frequency, and CTT in Eastern patients with chronic constipation. Methods A total of 144 chronic functional constipation patients underwent colonic transit study by using radio-opaque m...
BACKGROUND Stool specimen collection is challenging and informal feedback has indicated that participants find the process difficult. Increasing stool specimen returns would improve the investigation of outbreaks of diarrhoeal and food-borne disease. AIM To explore the barriers to stool sample collection and specimen return to ascertain which factors may help to improve the process. DESIGN ...
We aimed to investigate the diagnostic yield of stool cultures and identify predictive factors for positive cultures in patients with diarrheal illness.A total of 13,327 patients who underwent stool cultures due to diarrheal illness were reviewed. Stool cultures were performed for enteric pathogens, including Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio, Klebsiella oxytoca, and Yersinia. The culture-positive g...

0001420 Expected /Beneficial bacteria make up a significant portion of the total microflora in a healthy & balanced GI tract. These beneficial bacteria have many health-protecting effects in the GI tract including manufacturing vitamins, fermenting fibers, digesting proteins and carbohydrates, and propagating antitumor and anti-inflammatory factors. Clostridia are prevalent flora in a healthy i...
BACKGROUND Faecal microbial transplant (FMT) for recurrent Clostridium difficile infection (rCDI) is greatly facilitated by frozen stool banks. However, the effect of frozen storage of stool for greater than 2 months on the viability of stool bacteria is unknown and the efficacy of FMT is not clear. AIM To evaluate the viability of bacteria in stool frozen for up to 6 months, and the clinical...
