The evaluation of a new rapid stool antigen test showed different levels of sensitivity for final readings of test results at 20 min (59.1%) and 30 min (76.9%). Significant differences in performance were observed between the two sexes and the various age categories, with higher efficiency in male patients and young adults. Generally, this test is efficient and can be used to detect H. pylori infection in adults. However, further studies are required to confirm its accuracy. 相似文献

The diagnostic significance of the serological detection of antibodies to Helicobacter pylori has been established by numerous investigators. Reports of the clinical reliabilities of commercial enzyme immunoassay (EIA) kits available for this purpose vary as a result of the different H. pylori antigen sources and reference methods used. The 13C urea breath test (UBT) has been shown to be an extremely accurate and reliable method of detecting H. pylori infection. We used the 13C urea breath test as the confirmatory method for H. pylori status to evaluate three commercially available EIA kits designed to detect immunoglobulin G antibodies to H. pylori. These kits were the HM-CAP EIA kit (Enteric Products, Inc.), the PYLORI STAT EIA kit (BioWhittaker, Inc.), and the G.A.P. kit (Bio-Rad Laboratories/Biomerica, Inc.). The evaluations were performed in a double-blind manner with samples from 473 clinically characterized patients. This group included patients with symptomatic gastrointestinal disorders as well as nonsymptomatic volunteers. The sensitivities of the kits were as follows: HM-CAP, 98.4%; PYLORI STAT, 99.2%; and G.A.P., 100%. The specificities were as follows: HM-CAP, 96.4%; PYLORI STAT, 90.1%; and G.A.P., 26.0%. Although the HM-CAP and PYLORI STAT kits performed comparably, the G.A.P. test yielded significantly more false-positive results and an unacceptably high number of indeterminate results. 相似文献

The prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection in a population-based sample of 477 children (mean age plus minus standard deviation, 5.8 plus minus 0.5 years) determined by the [(13)C]urea breath test ([(13)C]UBT) was 10.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 8.1 to 13.8%), and that determined by salivary enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was 11.9% (95% CI, 9.2 to 15.2%). Compared to the [(13)C]UBT, the sensitivity and specificity of the salivary ELISA were 80.9% (95% CI, 66.3 to 90.4%) and 95.3% (95% CI, 92.7 to 97.1%), respectively. 相似文献

A non-invasive serological assay devised in this laboratory had a sensitivity and specificity of 100% as determined by culture and confirmed by histology in a group of 47 patients who had undergone endoscopy. The correlation between serology and the non-invasive [14C] breath test was very good. Only one of 24 culture positive patients was, while all 23 culture negative patients were, breath test negative. In a group of 46 healthy elderly persons, however, significant anomalies between serology and breath test were observed. Only 83% of the breath test negative persons were seronegative, while only 68% of the breath test positive persons were seropositive. These results can be explained in terms of age related atrophic gastritis and immune incompetence, causing reduced colonisation and decreased antibody production, respectively. These investigations suggest that non-invasive tests for H pylori infection may not be reliable in the elderly. 相似文献

The Helicobacter pylori stool antigen enzyme immunoassay (HpSA) was evaluated during posttreatment follow-up of patients in a country with a very high prevalence of H. pylori infection. From among 273 dyspeptic individuals (18 to 55 years) initially recruited from a shantytown in Lima, Peru, 238 participants who met the inclusion criteria and were suspected to be H. pylori positive based on (14)C urea breath test (UBT) results underwent endoscopy. Participants with endoscopy-proven infections received standard eradication therapy and were monitored by UBT and HpSA at 1 month following treatment and at 3-month intervals for 9 months posttreatment. A second endoscopy was performed if UBT results showed evidence of treatment failure or H. pylori recurrence. Biopsy results were considered the "gold standard" in all analyses. Among patients who underwent endoscopy, HpSA had a pretreatment sensitivity of 93%. Two-hundred thirty patients completed the treatment regimen, of whom 201 (93%) were considered to have had successful treatment outcomes based on a negative follow-up UBT. Thirty-two patients with UBT-defined treatment failures or H. pylori recurrences at any point during the 9-month follow-up underwent a second endoscopy. In the posttreatment setting, HpSA had an overall sensitivity of 73% and a specificity of 67%. Agreement between UBT and HpSA diminished throughout the follow-up. Among 14 participants in whom HpSA remained positive at 1 month following treatment despite UBT evidence of treatment success, 12 (86%) became HpSA negative within 3 months posttreatment. Although this study confirmed the validity of the HpSA in the initial assessment of dyspeptic patients, the test demonstrated a reduced overall accuracy in the detection of treatment failures and H. pylori recurrences during 9 months of posttreatment follow-up. Furthermore, in some patients it may take up to 3 months after successful eradication for antigen shedding to diminish to levels within the negative HpSA range. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori infection is acquired mainly in childhood, especially in developing countries, where a low-cost, rapid diagnostic technique which is reliable for all age groups may be useful for the management of H. pylori infection. For this purpose, we used an HpSA test (Equipar) to detect H. pylori infection in children and adolescents from Tehran, Iran. Thirty-five children who were positive or negative for H. pylori infection by endoscopy-based tests were used as positive and negative controls for the HpSA test. Stools were collected from 430 randomly selected children and adolescents (4 to 18 years old) from southwest, near the center, and northwest of Tehran. A questionnaire that included presence of recurrent abdominal pain (RAP), family history of infection and/or peptic ulcer disease (PUD), and income of parents was completed. A good agreement was found between the results of endoscopy-based tests and those of the HpSA test; the sensitivity and specificity of the Equipar-HpSA test were 100% and 83.4%, respectively. Among 430 children and adolescents, 47% were positive by the HpSA test, of whom 82% had RAP. No difference in incidence was observed between the two sexes; the various categories of age showed an increasing incidence, ranging from 24% (ages 4 to 6) to 58% (ages 16 to 18). The rate of infection in children and adolescents from the southwest was significantly higher (70%) than the rate in those from the northwest (32%), and a family history of H. pylori infection or PUD was observed in 59% of the HpSA positive subjects. The HpSA test is a useful test to detect H. pylori infection in children and adolescents from developing countries. 相似文献

A new rapid one-step immunochromatographic test using monoclonal antibodies for detection of Helicobacter pylori antigen in stool in children was evaluated on coded stool samples from 159 children (mean age, 9.7 +/- 5.0 years; 118 from Munich, 41 from Vienna): 86 children were H. pylori infected defined by positive culture and/or > or =2 other positive tests ([13C]urea breath test, histology, rapid urease test), and 73 children showed concordant negative results. Seventy-nine patients (12.1 +/- 3.8 years; 42 from Munich; 37 from Vienna) were tested 6 to 8 weeks after anti-Helicobacter pylori therapy with urea breath test and stool test. In Munich, all 160 tests (118 pre- and 42 posttreatment) were independently read by two observers. Equivocal results were excluded for calculation of sensitivity and specificity but were considered as false to assess accuracy. The two observers in Munich agreed in 63 out of 65 positive and 89 out of 95 negative results, while eight times (5.0%) they judged the test as equivocal. Pretreatment and posttreatment results for sensitivity were 88.1% (79.2 to 94.1) and 88.9% (51.8 to 99.7), specificity 88.1% (77.8 to 94.1) and 93.9% (85.2 to 98.3), and accuracy 83.5% and 81.5%, respectively. We conclude that the new monoclonal immunochromatographic quick test shows a good interobserver agreement, but equivocal results occur in 5%. Performance is comparable before and after therapy. The test may become a good alternative in children in settings where a [13C]urea breath test or a reliable enzyme immunoassay stool test are not available. 相似文献

A serological test for the diagnosis ofHelicobacter pylori infection (Cobas Core Roche, IgG, 2nd Generation; Roche, France) was compared with the examination of biopsy samples (culture and histology) obtained after endoscopy in 115 children to assess its value. In 94 children (42 positive and 52 negative), results were concordant. In 10 children a positive serological test was associated with an absence ofHelicobacter pylori, while in 11 others a negative serological test was associated with a positive culture. Sensitivity of the test was 79.2% and specificity 83.9%. A relationship between IgG titers and age (r=0.31, p<0.05) was found. Serological tests could be useful for the diagnosis ofHelicobacter pylori infection, but a negative test result does not rule out infection, particularly in children under 10 years of age. 相似文献

A test using monoclonal antibodies for detection of antigen in stool samples was compared with culture and histology for noninfected (n = 25), Helicobacter pylori-infected (n = 25), and Helicobacter felis-infected (n = 6) mice. Sensitivity and specificity were 96%. The monoclonal antibody-based test is therefore a noninvasive technique that is able to diagnose H. pylori infection in mice. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the Helicobacter pylori ClariRes assay (Ingenetix, Vienna, Austria) for the detection of H. pylori infection and the simultaneous clarithromycin susceptibility testing of the H. pylori isolates in stool samples from 100 symptomatic children. The results obtained by this novel biprobe real-time PCR method were directly compared with the results obtained from histological examination of gastric biopsy specimens, culturing, the [13C]urea breath test, and a monoclonal antibody-based stool antigen enzyme immunoassay (EIA). Fecal specimens from all 54 children who were shown to be noninfected by "gold standard" tests gave true-negative PCR results (specificity, 100%). Of the remaining 46 individuals with a positive H. pylori status, 29 were found to be positive by real-time PCR (sensitivity, 63%). For these 29 cases, the H. pylori ClariRes assay confirmed all results from phenotypic clarithromycin susceptibility testing by Etest. In summary, this investigation demonstrates that detection of Helicobacter DNA in stool samples by real-time PCR is a difficult task and that this method cannot replace the stool antigen EIA (sensitivity, 95.7%) for the accurate diagnosis of H. pylori infection in children. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori is now recognized as possibly playing an etiologic role on the development of chronic gastritis, peptic ulcers and adenocarcinoma of the distal stomach. CLO test and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay are rapid, biopsy-dependent diagnostic tests for H. pylori identification. In this study, we assessed four diagnostic methods (CLO test, PCR assay, culture and histological examination) for H. pylori detection in biopsy specimens from 78 patients with gastroduodenal diseases and investigating the efficiency of CLO test and PCR assay for the diagnosis of H. pylori infection. H. pylori was identified in 75.6%, 75.6%, 64.1%, 69.2% of patients by CLO test, PCR assay, culture and histological examination, respectively. Compared with the detection of H. pylori by culture and/or histological examination, the sensitivity and specificity of the CLO test were 98.2% and 81.8%, respectively, whereas the sensitivity and specificity of PCR assay were 96.4% and 77.3%, respectively. According to the H. pylori infection state as determined from the results of three concordant tests, the sensitivities of culture, CLO test, histological examination, and PCR assay were 90.9%, 96.4%, 98.2% and 100%, respectively. Whereas, the specificity was 100%, 95%, 95% and 90% for culture, CLO test, histological examination, and PCR assay, respectively. We found that both CLO test and PCR assay were highly sensitive and specific for H. pylori identification; however, PCR assay was more sensitive than other methods for detecting the specimens after patients received treatment. The results of this study suggest that CLO test is a rapid and sensitive method of screening for H. pylori infection and that PCR assay could provide an accurate indication of the state of infection both during treatment for eradication of H. pylori and at follow-up. 相似文献

Infection and associated disease caused by Helicobacter pylori are common in Poland, as in much of Eastern Europe, although the genotypes of strains have not been much studied, especially in terms of traits that might be important in disease. This study developed a sensitive and efficient polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test for the presence of H. pylori in gastric biopsy samples with ureA gene-specific primers and primers for the virulence-associated cag pathogenicity island (PAI). These tests were used with biopsy samples from 246 symptomatic children (age range 1-17 years) and 82 adults (age range 18-53 years) in Warsaw. An assessment was also made of the success of metronidazole-based therapy intended to eradicate infection. H. pylori was detected by ureA-specific PCR in 83 (76.9%) children and in 41 (87.2%) adults with histologically proven gastritis, and in 28.4% and 29.2%, respectively, of the 38 children and 7 adults with little or no evidence of gastritis. In general, H. pylori was detected more often by PCR than by culture (70.3% compared with 52.8% in children and 62.8% compared with 38.6% in adults), although in several cases a negative PCR was associated with a positive culture result. The rate of H. pylori infection increased with age from 5.4% in children up to 5 years old to 29.2% to age 10 and 65.4% to age 18. The tests detected the cagPAI in 97 (75%) and 44 (85%) of the H. pylori-infected children and adults, respectively. Some H. pylori-infected patients with a ureA+ PCR result contained the 'empty site' of the cagPAI and only four patients were infected with mixed cag+ cag- strains. PCR with cagPAI and 'empty site' of the cagPAI represents a novel tool for fast screening of mixed cag+ cag- infection. These results confirm and further illustrate that direct PCR of biopsy specimens can be useful for detection of infection and genotyping of resident strains, and that H. pylori infection is very common among children as well as adults in Poland. They also show that Polish strains vary with regard to the presence or absence of the cagPAI, and suggest that the proportion of strains that are cag+ is higher in Poland than in Western European countries, which may reflect the relatively higher risk of infection in this society. 相似文献

Commercially available complement fixation test reagents (Institute Virion Ltd., Rüschlikon, Zurich, Switzerland) available in package format were evaluated for the serodiagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection. The assay was compared with bacterial culture and histological Giemsa stain of gastric biopsy specimens obtained from 930 patients of different ages and from different ethnic groups, with a variety of upper gastrointestinal tract symptoms. The prevalence, sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values, respectively, were 35, 71, 90, 80, and 85% for Belgian patients aged 40 years or younger, 50, 81, 93, 92, and 83% for Belgian patients older than 40 years, and 83, 83, 79, 95, and 48% for Mediterranean patients. Using 645 serum specimens from 226 patients, we also evaluated the complement fixation test for its ability to monitor the eradication of H. pylori following antimicrobial therapy. Overall, H. pylori was eradicated from 122 patients while 104 patients remained infected with the organism. A significant decrease in antibody levels was observed 3 to 6 months after the end of therapy in the group of patients from whom H. pylori was eradicated. 相似文献

We investigated whether a novel monoclonal stool antigen test for detection of Helicobacter pylori performs with the same accuracy as the (13)C-urea breath test (UBT) for adult outpatients in the setting of a private office. The two tests showed identical levels of sensitivity when used to identify H. pylori-infected patients before and after eradication therapy. 相似文献

Histology has been recognized as the gold standard for the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection in children. For ethical reasons, the number of mucosal biopsies obtained during endoscopic procedures is limited in the pediatric population. The aim of this study was to identify the optimal location where Hp organisms are colonized. Children who were scheduled for upper endoscopic procedures were prospectively recruited for the study. At least 2 mucosal biopsy samples were obtained from the following anatomic locations: greater curvature (mid-fundus [B3], mid-body [B1], and mid-antrum [A1] and lesser curvature mid-body [B2], incisura angularis [A3], and mid-antrum [A2]). In addition, a biopsy sample for a rapid urease test was obtained. The biopsy samples were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and Giemsa for the detection of inflammation and Hp colonization. The degree of mucosal inflammation and Hp colonization was assessed. The study group comprised 206 children, of whom 16 (8%) were positive for Hp infection. Hp colonization was significantly greater in the antral locations (A1, A2, and A3) than the body locations (B1, B2, and B3) (P <.001). The degree of mucosal inflammation correlated with the presence of Hp organisms, Hp density, and antral location. The mid-antrum location (A2) was superior for the detection of Hp organisms. The antrum, especially mid-antrum, at the lesser curvature is the best location in which to detect Hp organisms in children who have not recently used antibiotics or proton pump inhibitor medications. 相似文献

Accurate noninvasive tests for diagnosing Helicobacter pylori infection in very young children are strongly required. We investigated the agreement between the [13C]urea breath test ([13C]UBT) and a monoclonal ELISA (HpSA) for detection of H. pylori antigen in stool. From October 2007 to July 2011, we enrolled 414 infants (123 from Brazil and 291 from Peru) of ages 6 to 30 months. Breath and stool samples were obtained at intervals of at least 3 months from Brazilian (n = 415) and Peruvian (n = 908) infants. [13C]UBT and stool test results concurred with each other in 1,255 (94.86%) cases (kappa coefficient = 0.90; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.87 to 0.92). In the H. pylori-positive group, delta-over-baseline (DOB) and optical density (OD) values were positively correlated (r = 0.62; P < 0.001). The positivity of the tests was higher (P < 0.001; odds ratio [OR] = 6.01; 95% CI = 4.50 to 8.04) in Peru (546/878; 62.2%) than in Brazil (81/377; 21.5%) and increased with increasing age in Brazil (P = 0.02), whereas in Peru it decreased with increasing age (P < 0.001). The disagreement between the test results was associated with birth in Brazil and female gender but not with age and diarrhea. Our results suggest that both [13C]UBT and the stool monoclonal test are reliable for diagnosing H. pylori infection in very young children, which will facilitate robust epidemiological studies in infants and toddlers. 相似文献

AIM: We evaluated the performance of Helicoblot 2.1 which differentiates the reactivity to each of the various Helicobacter pylori antigens, and compared the results with those obtained by standard techniques (rapid urease test and histological examination of gastric biopsy) in symptomatic children of different ages living in Antalya, Turkey. METHODS: Eighty-eight children (mean age, 9.15 years) were divided into two groups. The first group included 66 children who were found to be infected with H. pylori. The second group included 22 children who were negative for H. pylori. Serum samples collected from all patients were tested for H. pylori IgG antibodies by immunoblot assay (Helicoblot 2.1). RESULTS: The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values for detection of H. pylori infection were 80%, 100%, 100% and 85%, respectively. In children under 7 years of age, the sensitivity of the test was found to be lower than other age groups (P<0.05). No relationship was found between peptic ulcer and cagA antibody positivity (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Helicoblot 2.1 is a useful non-invasive diagnostic tool for H. pylori infection in children over 6 years of age. 相似文献

A commercial ELISA for the detection of Helicobacter pylori IgG antibodies was evaluated using serum from 242 patients attending an endoscopy clinic. The efficacy of the ELISA was assessed in relation to the histological detection of H pylori on antral mucosal biopsy specimens. In patients under 61 years of age (n = 138) the ELISA was 97.5% sensitive and 85.5% specific for H pylori infection, with a positive predictive value of 91% and a negative predictive value of 96%. Over the whole group the sensitivity of the ELISA was 93.8% and the specificity 79.3%. The positive predictive value and negative predictive values were, respectively, 90% and 87%. These results suggest that the Bio-Rad GAP IgG H pylori ELISA is suitable for serodiagnosis of H pylori infections for most clinical purposes and thus makes H pylori serology available to routine diagnostic laboratories. 相似文献
