AIM: To investigate the influence of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) exposure on the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) gastritis and intestinal metaplasia.METHODS: Chronic PPI use is associated with masking of H. pylori infection. Patients with H. pylori infection are predisposed to gastric and duodenal ulcers, and long-term infection with this organism has been associated with gastric mucosal atrophy and serious long-term complications, such as gastric lymphoma and adenocarcinoma. Three hundred patients diagnosed with gastritis between January 2008 and April 2010 were included in our study. The computerized medical database of these patients was reviewed retrospectively in order to assess whether the type of gastritis diagnosed (H. pylori vs non-H. pylori gastritis) is influenced by PPI exposure. H. pylori density was graded as low, if corresponding to mild density following the Updated Sydney System, or high, if corresponding to moderate or severe densities in the Updated Sydney System.RESULTS: Patients were equally distributed between males and females with a median age at the time of diagnosis of 50 years old (range: 20-87). The histological types of gastritis were classified as H. pylori gastritis (n = 156, 52%) and non-H. pylori gastritis (n = 144, 48%). All patients with non-H. pylori gastritis had inactive chronic gastritis. Patients with no previous PPI exposure were more likely to be diagnosed with H. pylori gastritis than those with previous PPI exposure (71% vs 34.2%, P < 0.001). Intestinal metaplasia was more likely to be detected in the latter patients (1.4% vs 6.5%, P = 0.023). Multivariate analysis has also demonstrated that in the presence of previous PPI exposure (OR = 0.217, 95%CI: 0.123-0.385), GERD (OR = 0.317, 95%CI: 0.132-0.763, P = 0.01), alcohol intake (OR = 0.396, 95%CI: 0.195-0.804, P = 0.01), the detection of H. pylori was less likely. Chronic use of PPIs may mask H. pylori infections promoting the diagnosis of non-H. pylori gastritis and leads to a significant drop in H. pylori densities and to an increased risk of intestinal metaplasia.CONCLUSION: The use of PPIs masks H. pylori infection, promotes the diagnosis of non-H. pylori inactive chronic gastritis diagnosis, and increases the incidence of intestinal metaplasia. 相似文献

Opinion statement Since the rediscovery of Helicobacter pylori two decades ago, it has become increasingly clear that the true relationships between this organism and diseases of the upper
gastrointestinal tract are highly complex. H. pylori colonization is a strong risk factor for peptic ulceration and distal gastric cancer; however, gastritis has no adverse consequences
for most hosts, and the prevalence of H. pylori is inversely related to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and its sequelae, which include Barrett’s esophagus and esophageal
adenocarcinoma. One clinical implication stemming from these data is that H. pylori eradication may not be appropriate in certain human populations due to potential beneficial effects conferred by persistent
gastric inflammation. However, the majority of published intervention trials indicate that H. pylori treatment neither leads to the development of clinically significant de novo esophagitis nor exacerbates existing reflux
disease. Superimposed upon these observations are reports that long-term acid suppression induced by proton-pump inhibitors
(PPIs) in conjunction with H. pylori colonization may enhance the development of atrophic gastritis, a well-recognized histologic step in the progression to intestinal-type
gastric cancer. Therefore, current evidence-based recommendations regarding management of H. pylori-positive individuals with GERD include the following. H. pylori should not be treated with the intent to either improve reflux symptoms or prevent the development of reflux complications.
However, if patients are to receive long-term acid suppressive therapy, they should be tested for H. pylori and treated if positive, due to the potential for PPIs to accelerate atrophy within H. pylori-infected mucosa. Optimal first-line regimens in this country consist of a PPI in combination with clarithromycin and either
amoxicillin or metronidazole (triple therapy) for at least 7, but preferably 10, days. Because the most effective second-line
regimens contain metronidazole, it is advisable to use amoxicillin instead of metronidazole as first-line therapy in order
to optimize results should subsequent therapy be required. If first-line regimens fail to eliminate H. pylori, patients should receive quadruple therapy consisting of a PPI, bismuth subsalicylate, metronidazole, and tetracycline for
14 days. Due to the availability and accuracy of noninvasive diagnostic tests for H. pylori, it is recommended that successful cure be confirmed after intervention. 相似文献

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection and the characteristics of gastritis and symptoms of patients with erosive and nonerosive gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Methods: We studied 202 consecutive patients with a diagnosis of GERD (symptoms score and endoscopy): group A (n = 110), erosive GERD; group B (n = 92), nonerosive GERD; 200 patients with upper abdominal complaints without abnormalities at endoscopy (functional dyspepsia, group C); and 200 asymptomatic controls tested for H. pylori serum antibody (group D). Antral and body biopsy specimens were taken for histology and the rapid urease test in groups A, B, and C. Results: The prevalence of H. pylori infection was higher in groups B and C (62% and 55%, respectively) than in A and D (36% and 40%) (P < 0.05). In positive patients H. pylori colonization and gastritis grade scores in the gastric body were higher in nonerosive than in erosive GERD and functional dyspepsia (P < 0.05). No differences in H. pylori colonization or gastritis grades were found in the antrum. Fifty-nine patients with nonerosive GERD (64%) and 42 with erosive GERD (38%) showed other dyspeptic symptoms associated with reflux symptoms (P < 0.05). Conclusions: H. pylori prevalence is higher in patients with nonerosive GERD than in normal subjects and in patients with erosive GERD and similar to that of patients with dyspepsia. Patients with nonerosive GERD often show dyspeptic symptoms and higher H. pylori colonization and inflammation grades in the proximal stomach. Our data support the hypothesis that in GERD H. pylori gastritis may, on the one hand, protect against the development of esophageal erosions and, on the other, contribute to the esophageal hypersensitivity to acid which is a feature of GERD. 相似文献

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GORD) is highly prevalent in the general population.In the last decade,a potential relationship between Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) eradication and GORD onset has been claimed.The main putative mechanism is the gastric acid hypersecretion that develops after bacterial cure in those patients with corpus-predominant gastritis.We performed a critical reappraisal of the intricate pathogenesis and clinical data available in this field.Oesophagitis onset after H.pylori eradication in duodenal ulcer patients has been ascribed to a gastric acid hypersecretion,which could develop following body gastritis healing.However,the absence of an acid hypersecretive status in these patients is documented by both pathophysiology and clinical studies.Indeed,duodenal ulcer recurrence is virtually abolished followingH.pylori eradication.In addition,intra-oesophageal pH recording studies failed to demonstrated increased acid reflux following bacterial eradication.Moreover,oesophageal manometric studies suggest that H.pylori eradication would reduce-rather than favor-acid reflux into the oesophagus.Finally,data of clinical studies would suggest that H.pylori eradication is not significantly associated with eitherreflux symptoms or erosive oesophagitis onset,some data suggesting also an advantage in curing the infection when oesophagitis is already present.Therefore,the legend of "crazy acid" remains-as all the others a fascinating,but imaginary tale. 相似文献

The prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) ranges from 2.5% to 7.1% in most population‐based studies in Asia. There is evidence that GERD and its complications are rising, coinciding with a decline in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. Asian GERD patients share similar risk factors and pathophysiological mechanisms with their Western counterparts. Possible causes for the lower prevalence of GERD include less obesity and hiatus hernia, a lesser degree of esophageal dysmotility, a high prevalence of virulent strains of H. pylori, and low awareness. Owing to the lack of precise translation for ‘heartburn’ in most Asian languages, reflux symptoms are often overlooked or misinterpreted as dyspepsia or chest pain. Furthermore, a symptom‐based diagnosis with a therapeutic trial of the proton pump inhibitor (PPI) may be hampered by the high prevalence of H. pylori‐related disease. The risk stratification for prompt endoscopy, use of a locally‐validated, diagnostic symptom questionnaire, and response to H. pylori‘test and treat’ help improve the accuracy of the PPI test for diagnoses. PPI remain the gold standard treatment, and ‘on‐demand’ PPI have been shown to be a cost‐effective, long‐term treatment. The clinical course of GERD is benign in most patients in Asia. The risk of progression from non‐erosive reflux disease to erosive esophagitis is low, and treatment response to a conventional dose of PPI is generally higher. Although H. pylori eradication may lead to more resilient GERD in a subset of patients, the benefits of H. pylori eradication outweigh the risks, especially in Asian populations with a high incidence of gastric cancer. 相似文献

AIM: To assess the role of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), age, smoking and body weight on the development of intestinal metaplasia of the gastric cardia (IMC).METHODS: Two hundred and seventeen patients scheduled for esophagogastroduodenoscopy were enrolled in this study. Endoscopic biopsies from the esophagus, gastroesophageal junction and stomach were evaluated for inflammation, the presence of H. pylori and intestinal metaplasia. The correlation of these factors with the presence of IMC was assessed using logistic regression.RESULTS: IMC was observed in 42% of the patients. Patient age, smoking habit and body mass index (BMI) were found as potential contributors to IMC. The risk of developing IMC can be predicted in theory by combining these factors according to the following formula: Risk of IMC = a + s - 2B where a = 2,…6 decade of age, s = 0 for non-smokers or ex-smokers, 1 for < 10 cigarettes/d, 2 for > 10 cigarettes/d and B = 0 for BMI < 25 kg/m2 (BMI < 27 kg/m2 in females), 1 for BMI > 25 kg/m2 (BMI > 27 kg/m2 in females). Among potential factors associated with IMC, H. pylori had borderline significance (P = 0.07), while GERD showed no significance.CONCLUSION: Age, smoking and BMI are potential factors associated with IMC, while H. pylori and GERD show no significant association. IMC can be predicted in theory by logistic regression analysis. 相似文献

Refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is very common and may affect up to 40% of patients who use a proton pump
inhibitor (PPI) once daily. Refractory GERD can present as incomplete or lack of response to PPI therapy. The disorder is
clearly driven by patients, who present with a wide range of symptom severity and frequency while on PPI treatment. Poor compliance
and improper timing of PPI consumption should always be excluded before further evaluation of this patient population. The
putative mechanisms for refractory GERD include weakly acidic reflux, duodenogastroesophageal/bile reflux, visceral hypersensitivity,
delayed gastric emptying, psychological comorbidity, and concomitant functional bowel disorders. Reduced PPI bioavailability,
rapid PPI metabolism, PPI resistance, nocturnal reflux, and Helicobacter pylori infection status have very limited roles in refractory GERD. The contribution of eosinophilic esophagitis to refractory GERD
is still unknown. Pill-induced esophagitis, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, achalasia, and other disorders are rarely responsible
for PPI failure and usually are not confused with GERD. 相似文献

AIM: To evaluate the trends in the eradication rate of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) over the past 11 years in a single center.METHODS: This retrospective study covered the period from January 2000 to December 2010. We evaluated 5746 patients diagnosed with gastric ulcers (GU), duodenal ulcers (DU), GU + DU, or nonpeptic ulcers associated with an H. pylori infection. We treated them annually with the 2 wk standard first-line triple regimen, proton pump inhibitor (PPI) + amoxicilin + clarithromycin (PAC; PPI, clarithromycin 500 mg, and amoxicillin 1 g, all twice a day). The follow-up test was performed at least 4 wk after the completion of the 2 wk standard H. pylori eradication using the PAC regimen. We also assessed the eradication rates of 1 wk second-line therapy with a quadruple standard regimen (PPI b.i.d., tripotassium dicitrate bismuthate 300 mg q.i.d., metronidazole 500 mg t.i.d., and tetracycline 500 mg q.i.d.) after the failure of the first-line therapy. Statistical analysis was performed with 95%CI for the differences in the annual eradication rates.RESULTS: A total of 5746 patients [2333 males (58.8%), 1636 females (41.2%); mean age of males vs females 51.31 ± 13.1 years vs 52.76 ± 13.6 years, P < 0.05, total mean age 51.9 ± 13.3 years (mean ± SD)] were investigated. Among these patients, 1674 patients were excluded: 35 patients refused treatment; 18 patients ceased H. pylori eradication due to side effects; 1211 patients had inappropriate indications for H. pylori eradication, having undergone stomach cancer operation or chemotherapy; and 410 patients did not undergo the follow-up. We also excluded 103 patients who wanted to stop eradication treatment after only 1 wk due to poor compliance or the side effects mentioned above. Finally, we evaluated the annual eradication success rates in a total of 3969 patients who received 2 wk first-line PAC therapy. The endoscopic and clinical findings in patients who received the 2 wk PAC were as follows: gastric ulcer in 855 (21.5%); duodenal ulcer in 878 (22.1%); gastric and duodenal ulcer in 124 (3.1%), erosive, atrophic gastritis and functional dyspepsia in 2055 (51.8%); and other findings (e.g., MALToma, patients who wanted to receive the therapy even though they had no abnormal endoscopic finding) in 57 (0.5%). The overall eradication rate of the 2 wk standard first-line triple regimen was 86.5%. The annual eradication rates from 2000 to 2010 were 86.7%, 85.4%, 86.5%, 83.3%, 89.9%, 90.5%, 88.4%, 84.5%, 89.1%, 85.8%, and 88.3%, sequentially (P = 0.06). No definite evidence of a significant change in the eradication rate was seen during the past eleven years. The eradication rates of second-line therapy were 88.9%, 82.4%, 85%, 83.9%, 77.3%, 85.7%, 84.4%, 87.3%, 83.3%, 88.9%, and 84% (P = 0.77). The overall eradication rate of 1 wk quadruple second-line therapy was 84.7%. There was no significant difference in the eradication rate according to the H. pylori associated diseases.CONCLUSION: This study showed that there was no trend change in the H. pylori eradication rate over the most recent 11 years in our institution. 相似文献

AIM: To analyze whether the presence of Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection could affect the quality of symptoms in gastro-esophageal reflux disease(GERD) patients. METHODS: one hundred and forty-four consecutive patients referred to our Unit for suspected GERD were recruited for the study. All patients underwent esophageal p H-metric recording. For those with a positive test, C13 urea breath test was then performed to assess the H. pylori status. GERD patients were stratified according to the quality of their symptoms and classified as typical, if affected by heartburn and regurgitation, and atypical if complaining of chest pain, respiratory and ears, nose, and throat features. H. pylori-negative patients were also asked whether they had a previous diagnosis of H. pylori infection. If a positive response was given, on the basis of the time period after successful eradication, patients were considered as "eradicated"(E) if H. pylori eradication occurred more than six months earlier or "recently eradicated" if the therapy had been administered within the last six months. Patients without history of infection were identified as "negative"(N). χ2 test was performed by combining the clinical aspects with the H. pylori status.RESULTS: one hundred and twenty-nine of the 144 patients, including 44 H. pylori-positive and 85 H. pylori-negative(41 negative, 21 recently eradicated, 23 eradicated more than 6 mo before), were eligible for the analysis. No difference has been found between H. pylori status and either the number of reflux episodes(138 ± 23 vs 146 ± 36, respectively, P = 0.2, not significant) or the percentage of time with pH values 4(6.8 ± 1.2 vs 7.4 ± 2.1, respectively, P = 0.3, not significant). The distribution of symptoms was as follows: 13 typical(30%) and 31 atypical(70%) among the 44 H. pylori-positive cases; 44 typical(52%) and 41 atypical(48%) among the 85 H. pylori-negative cases,(P = 0.017 vs H. pylori +; OR = 2.55, 95%CI: 1.17-5.55). Furthermore, clinical signs in patients with recent H. pylori eradication were similar to those of H. pylori-positive(P = 0.49; OR = 1.46, 95%CI: 0.49-4.37); on the other hand, patients with ancient H. pylori eradication showed a clinical behavior similar to that of H. pylori-negative subjects(P = 0.13; OR = 0.89, 95%CI: 0.77-6.51) but different as compared to the H. pylori-positive group(P 0.05; OR = 3.71, 95%CI: 0.83-16.47).CONCLUSION: Atypical symptoms of GERD occur more frequently in H. pylori-positive patients than in H. pylori-negative subjects. In addition, atypical symptoms tend to decrease after H. pylori eradication. 相似文献

Background/Aims
A two-year, prospective, nationwide multicenter study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of Helicobacter pylori eradication on the development of reflux esophagitis (RE) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms in the Korean population.Methods
In total, 1,489 subjects without RE were enrolled at the outpatient clinics of 12 tertiary hospitals nationwide, and 452 subjects underwent follow-up (F/U) for 2 years to evaluate the development of RE and GERD symptoms.Results
RE was found in 33 subjects (7.3% of 452 subjects) and 14 subjects (7.3% of 192 subjects) during the first and second year of F/U, respectively. H. pylori status was not associated with the development of RE. RE was found in six (9.0%) of 67 H. pylori-negative patients, in 26 (11.2%) of 233 eradicated subjects and in eight (7.0%) of 114 noneradicated subjects (p=0.532). Multivariate analysis showed that age ≥60 years (odds ratio [OR], 7.11; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.92 to 26.41), alcohol consumption (OR, 4.43; 95% CI, 1.03 to 19.19) and F/U cholesterol levels ≥200 mg/dL (OR, 5.03; 95% CI, 1.32 to 19.17) were significant risk factors for the development of RE. There was no significant difference in the development of GERD symptoms or weight according to H. pylori status during the 2-year F/U.Conclusions
Eradication of H. pylori did not affect the development of reflux esophagitis or GERD symptoms among patients in outpatient gastroenterology clinics in South Korea. 相似文献11.
Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)is a prevalent,worldwide,chronic infection.Choice of treatment can be modified according to antibiotic-resistance rates of H.pylori.The ideal therapeutic regimen for H.pylori infection should achieve an eradication rate of≥80%.In some countries,triple therapy with a proton-pump inhibitor(PPI),clarithromycin,and amoxicillin or metronidazole is still the best option.Bismuth-containing quadruple therapy consisting of bismuth salts,tetracycline,metronidazole and PPI,may be the preferred option in countries with clarithromycin resistance>20%.Sequential therapy including a PPI and amoxicillin given for the first 5 d,followed by triple therapy including a PPI,clarithromycin,and nitroimidazole antimicrobial(all twice daily)for the remaining 5 d,can be another option for the first-line treatment of H.pylori.Recent data suggest that treatment with PPI,levofloxacin,and amoxicillin for 10 d is a good choice for second-line therapy.Concomitant therapy consisting of PPI,amoxicillin,clarithromycin and metronidazole is another option for second-line treatment.If second-line treatment also fails,it is recommended to culture H.pylori from biopsy specimens and perform antimicrobial susceptibility testing.Rescue treatment should be based on antimicrobial susceptibility. 相似文献

The speculations on the protective role of Helicobacter pylori against gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) originated from epidemiological observations. These studies have shown that
the rising trend of GERD is coincident with declining prevalence of H. pylori and peptic ulcer disease in Asia. Furthermore, most case–control and population-based studies suggest a negative association
between H. pylori infection and GERD. It is generally believed that the preponderance of cagA+ and vacA+ virulent strains and proinflammatory
interleukin-1 beta polymorphism increase the risk of hypochlohydria and protects against the development of GERD in Asian
population. Recovery of gastric acid secretion and emergence of reflux esophagitis has been reported after H. pylori eradication in patients with corpus gastritis and atrophic gastritis. Recent studies have also reported that H. pylori eradication leads to recovery of ghrelin secreting cells in the gastric corpus and a rise in plasma ghrelin levels, which
may contribute to obesity through its appetite-stimulating action and predispose to GERD. The prevalence of H. pylori infection is generally lower in younger Asians who enjoy improved socioeconomic status and sanitation compared with their
older counterparts. The Asian population is probably facing a rising generation with high gastric acid and ghrelin secretion
rates. These physiological changes may contribute to increased dietary calorie intake, obesity and increased prevalence of
GERD. 相似文献

AIM: To investigate the characteristics of gastric cancer and gastric mucosa in a Mongolian populationby comparison with a Japanese population.METHODS: A total of 484 Mongolian patients with gastric cancer were enrolled to study gastric cancer characteristics in Mongolians. In addition, a total of 208 Mongolian and 3205 Japanese consecutive outpatients who underwent endoscopy, had abdominal complaints, no history of gastric operation or Helicobacter pylori eradication treatment, and no use of gastric secretion inhibitors such as histamine H2-receptor antagonists or proton pump inhibitors were enrolled. This study was conducted with the approval of the ethics committees of all hospitals. The triple-site biopsy method was used for the histologic diagnosis of gastritis and H. pylori infection in all Mongolian and Japanese cases. The infection rate of H. pylori and the status of gastric mucosa in H. pylori-infected patients were compared between Mongolian and Japanese subjects. Age(± 5 years), sex, and endoscopic diagnosis were matched between the two countries.RESULTS: Approximately 70% of Mongolian patients with gastric cancer were 50-79 years of age, and approximately half of the cancers were located in the upper part of the stomach. Histologically, 65.7% of early cancers exhibited differentiated adenocarcinoma, where as 73.9 % of advanced can cersdisplayed undifferentiated adenocarcinoma. The infection rate of H. pylori was higher in Mongolian than Japanese patients(75.9% vs 4 8. 3 %, P0.0001). When stratified by age, the prevalence was highest among young patients, and tended to decrease in patients aged 50 years or older. The anti-East-Asian Cag Aspecific antibody was negative in 99.4% of H. pyloripositive Mongolian patients. Chronic inflammation, neutrophil activity, glandular atrophy, and intestinal metaplasia scores were significantly lower in Mongolian compared to Japanese H. pylori-positive patients(P 0.0001), with the exception of the intestinal metaplasia score of specimen from the greater curvature of the upper body. The type of gastritis changed from antrumpredominant gastritis to corpus-predominant gastritis with age in both populations.CONCLUSION: Gastric cancer was located in the upper part of the stomach in half of the Mongolian patients; Mongolian patients were infected with non-East-Asiantype H. pylori. 相似文献

Sliding hiatal hernia is a common endoscopic finding with a prevalence that increases with the age of patients. Although nearly all patients with GERD have HH, only a minority of patients with hernia reports reflux symptoms. Our hypothesis is that H. pylori infection may be responsible for the high number of asymptomatic hernias. After exclusion of patients with peptic ulcer, 507 patients with an endoscopic diagnosis of hernia were considered. Patients were divided into three groups: A, 45 years, 141 patients; B, 46–60 years, 144 patients; and C, 61 years, 222 patients. Presence of reflux symptoms (questionnaire) and esophagitis, H. pylori status, and gastric histology were recorded. The prevalence of hernia in the total series was 11% in group A, 23% in B, and 38% in C. Aging was associated with a significant increase in H. pylori prevalence and corpus gastritis scores, and a parallel decrease of GERD symptom prevalence, which was 66.6% in group A, 52.1% in B, and 46.8% in C (P < 0.01). Taking the three groups together, prevalence of H. pylori infection was higher in patients without GERD than with GERD (66.4 vs 57.3%, P < 0.05), and higher in patients with nonerosive GERD than erosive GERD (62.8 vs 48.6%, P = 0.02); corpus gastritis scores were significantly higher in patients without GERD than those with GERD and in those with nonerosive than erosive GERD. In conclusion, H. pylori infection protects against development of GERD in subjects with hiatus hernia. This effect is significantly more evident in the elderly where, in spite of the high prevalence of hernia, only a small number of individuals develop GERD. The development of a corpus-predominant gastritis is probably responsible for this effect. 相似文献

BACKGROUND
Helicobacter pylori is considered to be a pathogen responsible for gastritis and peptic ulcers, and a risk factor for gastric cancer. A periodontal pocket in the teeth of individuals with chronic periodontitis may function as a reservoir for H pylori.OBJECTIVE:
The present study was undertaken to evaluate whether the presence of H pylori in the dental plaque of patients with and without periodontitis correlates with gastric involvement.METHODS:
A total of 101 patients with dyspepsia were included in the present study. Subjects were divided into periodontitis and non-periodontitis groups. For the detection of H pylori in dental plaque, samples were collected from two teeth using a periodontal curette. Subgingival plaque was obtained by inserting two sterile paper points into periodontal pockets for 20 s. This was followed by an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and antral biopsies.RESULTS:
Sixty-five per cent of patients had dental plaque positive for H pylori and more than 50% harboured the bacteria in their stomach. Periodontitis patients had a significantly higher percentage of H pylori in their dental plaque (79% versus 43%; P<0.05) and the stomach (60% versus 33%; P<0.05) than patients with no periodontitis. Additionally, 78% of patients from the periodontitis group versus only 30% from the nonperiodontitis group had a positive test result for the coexistence of H pylori in both dental plaque and the stomach.CONCLUSION:
Patients with poor oral hygiene have a higher prevalence of H pylori in dental plaque and in the stomach. This finding suggests that the oral cavity may be a reservoir for H pylori, and potentially a source of transmission or reinfection. 相似文献16.

Gastric remnants are an inevitable consequence of partial gastrectomy following resection for gastric cancer.The presence of gastric stumps is itself a risk factor for redevelopment of gastric cancer.Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)infection is also a well-known characteristic of gastric carcinogenesis.H.pylori colonization in the remnant stomach therefore draws special interest from clinicians in terms of stomach cancer development and pathogenesis;however,the H.pylori-infected gastric remnant is quite different from the intact organ in several aspects and researchers have expressed conflicting opinions with respect to its role in pathogenesis.For instance,H.pylori infection of the gastric stump produced controversial results in several recent studies.The prevalence of H.pylori infection in the gastric stump has varied among recent reports.Gastritis developing in the remnant stomach presents with a unique pattern of inflammation that is different from the pattern seen in ordinary gastritis of the intact organ.Bilerefluxate also has a significant influence on the colonization of the stomach stump,with several studies reporting mixed results as well.In contrast,the elimination of H.pylori from the gastric stump has shown a dramatic impact on eradication rate.H.pylori elimination is recognized to be important for cancer prevention and considerable agreement of opinion is seen among researchers.To overcome the current discrepancies in the literature regarding the role of H.pylori in the gastric stump,further research is required. 相似文献

Background Two main pathogenic factors, bile reflux and Helicobacter pylori infection, have been identified in the remnant stomach, but it is still unclear which factor is important in the pathogenesis of gastritis in the remnant stomach after distal gastrectomy.Methods In 184 patients who had had distal gastrectomy performed using the Billroth-I procedure (B-I; n-106), Billroth-II procedure (B-II; n-36), and jejunal interposition (J-I; n-42) we examined the severity of remnant gastritis endoscopically and carried out examinations for H. pylori infection and histological examination.Results The endoscopic severity of remnant gastritis was grade 1 or more in 101 of the 106 B-I patients (95.3%) and in all 36 B-II patients (100%). But, of the 42 J-I patients, the grade was 0 in 33 (78.6%). The endoscopic severity of remnant gastritis was significantly milder for J-I than for B-I (P < 0.001) and B-II (P < 0.001). H. pylori infection was confirmed in 59 of the 106 B-I patients (55.6%), 21 of the 36 B-II patients (58.3%), and 32 of the 42 J-I patients (76.1%). The rate of H. pylori infection was higher for J-I patients than for B-I (P < 0.05), but not for B-II patients (P = 0.1495). The severity of chronic and active inflammatory cellular infiltration tended to be inverse proportional relation with the endoscopic severity of the remnant gastritis. Furthermore, the histological inflammation and activity scores of H. pylori-positive patients were higher than those of H. pylori-negative patients, without regard to the endoscopic grade of gastritis.Conclusions Reconstruction techniques play an important role in the prevention of bile reflux, and we found that endoscopically more severe remnant gastritis was associated with a lower rate of H. pylori infection and with a lower degree of inflammatory cellular infiltration. 相似文献

AIM: To determine the efficacy of our therapeutic strategy for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication and to identify predictive factors for successful eradication.METHODS: From April 2006 to June 2010, we retrospectively assessed 2428 consecutive patients (1025 men, 1403 women; mean age 55 years, age range 18-92 years) with gastric histology positive for H. pylori infection referred to our unit for 13-C urea breath test (UBT), after first-line therapy with proton pump inhibitor (PPI) b.i.d. + amoxicillin 1 g b.i.d. + clarithromycin 500 mg b.i.d. for 7 d. Patients who were still positive to UBT were recommended a second-line therapy (PPI b.i.d. + amoxicillin 1 g b.i.d. + tinidazole 500 mg b.i.d. for 14 d). Third choice treatment was empirical with PPI b.i.d. + amoxicillin 1 g b.i.d. + levofloxacin 250 mg b.i.d. for 14 d.RESULTS: Out of 614 patients, still H. pylori-positive after first-line therapy, only 326 and 19 patients respectively rechecked their H. pylori status by UBT after the suggested second and third-line regimens. “Per protocol” eradication rates for first, second and third-line therapy were 74.7% (95% CI: 72.7%-76.4%), 85.3% (95% CI: 81.1%-89.1%) and 89.5% (95% CI: 74.9%-103%) respectively. The overall percentage of patients with H. pylori eradicated after two treatments was 97.8% (95% CI: 97.1%-98.4%), vs 99.9% (95% CI: 99.8%-100%) after three treatments. The study found that eradication therapy was most effective in patients with ulcer disease (P < 0.05, P = 0.028), especially in those with duodenal ulcer. Smoking habits did not significantly affect the eradication rate.CONCLUSION: First-line therapy with amoxicillin and clarithromycin produces an H. pylori eradication rate comparable or superior to other studies and second-line treatment can still be triple therapy with amoxicillin and tinidazole. 相似文献

AIM: To evaluate the effect of first line esomeprazole (EPZ)-based triple therapy on Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication.METHODS: A total of 80 Japanese patients with gastritis who were diagnosed as positive for H. pylori infection by endoscopic biopsy-based or 13C-urea breath tests were included in this study. The average age of the patients was 57.2 years (male/female, 42/38). These patients were treated by first-line eradication therapy with EPZ 40 mg/d, amoxicillin 1500 mg/d, and clarithromycin 400 mg/d for 7 d. All drugs were given twice per day. Correlations between H. pylori eradication, CYP2C19 genotype, and serum pepsinogen (PG) level were analyzed. This study was registered with the UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN000009642).RESULTS: The H. pylori eradication rates by EPZ-based triple therapy evaluated by intention-to-treat and per protocol were 67.5% and 68.4%, respectively, which were similar to triple therapies with other first-generation proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). The eradication rates in three different CYP2C19 genotypes, described as extensive metabolizer (EM), intermediate metabolizer, and poor metabolizer, were 52.2%, 72.1%, and 84.6%, respectively. The H. pylori eradication rate was significantly lower in EM than non-EM (P < 0.05). The serum PG I level and PG I/II ratio were significantly increased after eradication of H. pylori (P < 0.01), suggesting that gastric atrophy was improved by H. pylori eradication. Thus, first-line eradication by EPZ-based triple therapy for patients with H. pylori-positive gastritis was influenced by CYP2C19 genotype, and the eradication rate was on the same level with other first-generation PPIs in the Japanese population.CONCLUSION: The results from this study suggest that there is no advantage to EPZ-based triple therapy on H. pylori eradication compared to other first-generation PPIs. 相似文献
