Introduction. The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guidance recommends that dyspeptic patients are tested for Helicobacter pylori using a urea breath test, stool antigen test, or serology. Antibiotic resistance in H. pylori is globally increasing, but treatment in England is rarely guided by susceptibility testing or surveillance. Aims. To determine compliance of mic...

Helicobacter pylori infection is usually acquired in early childhood and it can persist throughout life without antibiotic treatment. This study aimed to compare the accuracy of the noninvasive H. pylori Stool Antigen Test-applied on the stool samples with the invasive gold standart Rapid Urease Test-applied on the gastric biopy samples of patients with upper gastrointestinal complaints. After ...

Background and Objectives: Iran, as a developing country, is experiencing high burdens of Helicobacter pylori (Hp)-associated non-communicable diseases. Hp stool antigen test (HpSA) is widely used as an inexpensive and feasible noninvasive method to diagnose Hp infection, instead of invasive approaches. The current study aimed at evaluating th...

objective: helicobacter pylori is to blame for one of the most common chronic infections in humans and can cause peptic ulcer, gastritis, duodenitis and non-ulcer dyspepsia. developing a reliable test to detect the infection is of great importance. for a variety of reasons, the existing tests including the stool culture, biopsy, pcr, and urea breath test are not up to par. the pcr-elisa test is...

background: alkyl hydroperoxide reductase (ahpc) of helicobacter pylori is considered as a diagnostic antigen. there­fore, this antigen can be used to detect h. pylori infection by stool immunoassays such as elisa. the aim of this study was to simplify the ahpc protein purification procedures. methods: for whole cell protein extraction, the bacterial cells were ruptured by octly-β-d glucopyrano...

The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and identify the species of gastric Helicobacter in the stool of dogs with gastritis. The study was carried out on thirty dogs of different breeds, of both genders and of various ages, diagnosed with gastritis. Helicobacter spp. was detected in stool samples using the nested-PCR method. Helicobacter bacteria were identified in stool samples ...

Aim: This was a prospective, multicenter, single-arm intervention, against historical controls, study of the efficacy vonoprazan-based 7-day triple regimen with metronidazole (VPZ-AMPC-MNZ) as first-line therapy for eradicating clarithromycin-resistant Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). Methods: We enrolled 35 patients positive H. pylori, assessed by culture, without history eradication. These we...

The number of children infected by Helicobacter pylori is increasing worldwide. The aim of this study is to identify demographic and maternal risk factors affecting H. pylori positivity in asymptomatic children. One hundred sixty-five asymptomatic children, 75 (45%) females, and 90 (55%) males, between 2 and 12 years of age (mean 6.8 -/+ 3.0 years) were tested for the presence of H. pylori stoo...

Objective: Helicobacter pylori has been shown to cause several gastrointestinal disorders and its frequency increases with age worldwide. Considering the changing nutritional habits socioeconomic level in Türkiye, there is no current epidemiological study conducted on Turkish children. In this study, it was aimed obtain of H. childhood fecal antigen test which demonstrates only active infection...
