根除Hp治疗对高原地区Hp相关性溃疡患者血清6种细胞因子水平的影响及其临床意义

目的观察根除幽门螺杆菌治疗对高原地区幽门螺杆菌相关性溃疡病患者血清IL-1β、IL-2、IL-4、IL-6、IL-8和TNF水平的影响,以探讨其在溃疡病发病中的可能致病机理。方法应用放射免疫法测定55例溃疡病患者血清6种细胞因子的含量,比较幽门螺杆菌感染与非感染患者含量的差异,对幽门螺杆菌感染患者进行以洛赛克为中心的三联1周疗法,比较根除前后及根除者和未根除者其含量的差异,同时比较幽门螺杆菌根除组和未根除组溃疡的愈合率。结果55例患者中,幽门螺杆菌感染者30例,感染者血清IL-4含量明显低于非感染者(P<0.01),幽门螺杆菌根除后其含量极明显高于根除前(P<0.001),未根除者前后比较无变化(P>0.05),根除者明显高于未根除者(P<0.05),而根除幽门螺杆菌治疗对IL-1β、IL-2、IL-6、IL-8和TNF均无显著性影响(P>0.05),幽门螺杆菌根除组溃疡愈合率明显高于未根除组(P<0.05)。结论幽门螺杆菌感染后IL-4降低导致的Th2免疫应答下调可能是幽门螺杆菌相关性溃疡病发生的主要致病机制之一;根除幽门螺杆菌可使IL-4分泌明显增加,Th2免疫应答上调,从而加速溃疡愈合;血清IL-4的检测有望成为根除幽门螺杆菌和溃疡愈合疗效判定的有用指标。

Methods to optimize the management of Helicobacter pylori infection. The comparative efficacy of the triple and quadruple therapy used as a first line therapy]

The study involved a dynamic comparative efficacy survey of the standard triple and quadruple therapies recommended by the Maastricht Consensus as first line therapies for eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection with the time period of 5 years. The study included 199 Hp-positive patients with stomach ulcer; 101 of them were under examination in 1997 and 98 in 2002. Depending on the therapy type, patients were assigned to one of two groups: the OCM/A group (48 and 53 patients in 1997 and 2002, respectively) was treated with Omeprazole, Clarithromycin and Metronidazole for 7 days and ODTM group (46 and 52 patients in 1997 and 2002, correspondingly) was treated with Omeprazole, De-Nol, Tetracycline and Metronidazole. To discover and confirm Hp eradication, cytological, histological and rapid urease tests were used. Hp eradication was considered as successful when all the tests were negative. The eradication frequency was assessed with the help of ITT and PP analyses. In the OCM/A group Hp was eradicated in 81.3% and 62.3% (p<0.05) of patients when analyzed by the intention-to-treat and in 88.6% and 66.0% (p<0.01) of patients when analyzed by per-protocol in 1997 and 2002, respectively. In the ODTM group Helicobacter pylori was eradicated in 89.1% and 88.5% (p<0.05) of patients when analyzed by intention-to-treat and 95.3% and 93.9% (p<0.05) when analyzed by per-protocol in 1997 and 2002, respectively. The frequency of ulcer cicatrisation and cuticularization of erosions did not depend on the type of the treatment. There was no significant difference between the compliance and side effects of the triple and quadruple therapies. Taking into account the decrease in the efficacy of the triple anti-Hp therapy, the need to use the quadruple therapy as a first line therapy for Hp infection eradication was substantiated.

Short-term recurrent abdominal pain related to Helicobacter pylori infection in children

BACKGROUND AND AIM: The causal relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and recurrent abdominal pain in children is still under debate. This study assessed the relationship between H. pylori infection and recurrent abdominal pain (RAP) in preschool and school children. METHODS: A total of 1271 preschool and school children completed a questionnaire to define the RAP or short-term RAP (SRAP) with pain duration from 2 weeks to 3 months. The serum samples of 118 children with RAP, 60 with SRAP and 212 control children without abdominal pain were all tested for anti-H. pylori IgG. Children with abdominal pain and anti-H. pylori seropositivity were followed for 1 year to assess the relationship of H. pylori infection and recurrent abdominal pain. RESULTS: The prevalence rates of RAP and SRAP in children were 9.8% (124/1271) and 5.5% (70/1271), respectively. Children with SRAP had a higher anti-H. pylori seropositive rate than those with RAP (25%vs 5%, P < 0.001) and control (25%vs 9%, P = 0.001). Among children with SRAP, the epigastric pain was related to H. pylori infection (P = 0.002). One year later, 71% (15/21) of the follow-up children (15 with SRAP, six with RAP) became symptom free regardless of the persistence of H. pylori. CONCLUSION: H. pylori infection is more commonly found in children with short-term RAP, and presentation of epigastric pain in these cases can be considered as a warning alarm to screen for H. pylori infection.

13C-urea breath test,referral patterns,and results in children

BACKGROUND: The family is the core unit for Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection. In most instances, Hp colonization occurs in early childhood, and correlates with socioeconomic parameters. Helicobacter pylori infection is highly prevalent in many countries, and may cause chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer in adults and in children. Gastritis induced by Hp may be associated with recurrent abdominal pain in children, and eradication of the bacterium may improve the clinical symptoms.AIM The primary aim of this study is to characterize the group of pediatric patients according to the referral patterns and results of 13C-urea breath test (13C -UBT) in our laboratory. The secondary aim is to investigate the result of different treatment combinations for Hp eradication. METHODS: The 13C-UBT was performed with 75 mg urea labeled with 13C in 200 mL orange juice. Breath samples were collected at 0 and 30 minutes, and the results expressed as the change in the 13C/12C ratio at T30' minus T0' The cutoff for Hp eradication was 3.5. The physicians who ordered the test completed a questionnaire covering demographic data (age, gender, and origin), indication for the test was use of a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), and type of combination eradication therapy. RESULTS: The study sample consisted of 1655 children, aged 1 to 18 years, 992 (59.9%) boys and 663 (40.1%) girls, from all parts of the country. The 13C-UBT was positive in 763 (46.1%). The prevalence of positive results was directly correlated with age. History of peptic disease was the main indication for the test, in 1346 (81.4%) cases. Details on eradication therapy were available for 435 children of whom 42.5% had a positive 13C-UBT, indicating a successful eradication rate of 57.5%. Compared with Israeli and American-European origin, children of Asian-African origin had a higher rate of referrals for reason of validation of successful Hp eradication, greater long-term PPI use, and a higher rate of 13C-UBT positivity. No significant difference was demonstrated between the triple therapy regimens used. CONCLUSION: 13C-UBT may be performed in children of all age groups. The main indication is a history of peptic ulcer disease. The prevalence of Hp infection increased with age and the only factor associated with increased Hp infection was Asian-African origin. The most frequent eradication therapy used in children is a combination of omeprazole, amoxicillin, and clarithromycin.

Symptomatic response to Helicobacter pylori eradication in children with recurrent abdominal pain: double blind randomized placebo-controlled trial

BACKGROUND: Controlled trials considering the effect of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication on gastrointestinal symptoms in children are scant. We aimed to study the connection between recurrent abdominal pain and dyspepsia and H. pylori infection in children. STUDY: This was a double blind randomised controlled trial. Twenty children with recurrent abdominal pain (RAP) being H. pylori positive as measured with the C urea breath test (UBT) were randomized either to receive omeprazole, amoxycillin and clarithromycin (n = 10), or omeprazole and 2 placebos (n = 10) for 1 week after gastroscopy. Symptoms were registered prior to the treatment and at follow up visits 2, 6, 24, and 52 weeks after stopping the treatment. Control UBT was performed on all patients 6 weeks post-treatment and again at the 52 week follow-up visit, when also re-endoscopy with biopsies was done to all participants. RESULTS: All infected children had histologic gastritis. Bacterial eradication was achieved in 8/10 in the triple treatment group and in none in the placebo group. There was no change in symptom index in either group at 2 weeks post treatment. At 52 weeks a similar reduction in symptom index was observed in both groups irrespective of the healing of gastritis, which was more commonly achieved along the eradication. CONCLUSIONS: Bacterial eradication and healing of gastric inflammation does not lead to symptomatic relief of chronic abdominal pain in children.
