Objectives: Gastric cancer has been a heavy burden in Eastern Asian countries. Helicobacter pylori infection has a central role in gastric cancer development, so eradication of this infection is expected to reduce gastric cancer development. In 2012, the Japanese government decided to introduce H. pylori eradication for chronic gastritis among asymptomatic people, including having this procedur...

Helicobacter pylori is a spiral-shaped gram-negative bacterium that infects half of the world’s population and is the main cause of chronic gastritis, gastric ulcer and gastric malignancies including gastric adenocarcinoma and mucus-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma [1,2]. Helicobacter pylori is the most common human pathogen and a successful pathogen and has been specifically transmit...

background h. pylori infection in the stomach was the first major cause of gastritis and peptic ulcer disease and gastric adenocarcinoma and lymphoma (malt). evaluation of the infection eradication is important. h. pylori infection was associated with gastric glands dysfunction such as increased serum gastrin and increased secretion of pepsinogen. in recent years the measurement of serum gastri...

Background: A decreased rate of successful helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection treatment has revealed serious demand for more effective regimens to eradicate infection. Therefore, probiotics have recently been considered to increase the rate of antibiotic regimens efficacy in H. pylori infections. In current randomized controlled trial, we evaluated the effect of double strain probiotic co...

Triple therapy was given to 49 chronic helicobacter pylori positive chronic duodenal ulcer cases to see its efficacy in H. pylori clearance, eradication and ulcer healing. H. pylori clearance and eradication rates at week 5 and 8 were 87.8% and 81.5% while ulcer healing rates 68.2% and 81.5% respectively. Seven (18%) cases failed to clear H. pylori and were classified as non-responders. Histolo...

background and purpose: successful treatment of helicobacter pylori infection causes not only eradication of pathogen, but also prevents the associated diseases such as peptic ulcer, gastric carcinoma and lymphoma. the aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 7 days triple therapy as a lowest drug resistance, shortest duration and fewer numbers of drugs in children. materials and metho...

To investigate whether Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) eradication would influence the risk of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) in patients with peptic ulcer disease. From the Longitudinal Health Insurance Database 2000, 6061 patients with peptic ulcer and receiving H pylori eradication therapy were recruited. The study cohort was subdivided into early (within 1 year) and late (after 1 year) e...

OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to assess the outcome of antimicrobial susceptibility-guided therapies in Helicobacter pylori-infected individuals who had undergone unsuccessful prior eradication treatments. METHODS From October 2004 to December 2013, 481 H. pylori-positive patients with prior unsuccessful eradication treatments were administered susceptibility-guided salvage eradi...
