Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the standard triple therapy with Bismuth quadruple therapy in children infected with Helicobacter pylori. The main questions to answer are: - the safety - the efficacy of the quadruple protocol with Bismuth subcitrate Participants will be randomised in 7-days eradication therapy group and 14-days eradication control group.

Observational study, voluntary participation, 12 months, studying Helicobacter pylori prevalence.
Dual therapy containing vonoprazan and amoxicillin had showed excellent eradication results with Helicobacter pylori first-line treatment. However, no study has examined its efficacy for H. pylori rescue treatment. Rifabutin has low antibiotic resistance, superior antibacterial activity in vitro, and stability in the gastric acid environment. Several studies have confirmed the efficacy of rifabutin-containing triple therapy as a first-line or rescue treatment for H. pylori. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dual therapy vesus rifabutin-containing triple therapy versus classical bismuth-containing quadruple therapy as rescue therapy for the eradication of refractory Helicobacter pylori.
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is a common global infectious disease of the gastrointestinal tract. Helicobacter pylori eradication can effectively prevent the development of stomach cancer. Progressive application of dual therapy for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori. Tegoprazan, a Potassium-Competitive Acid Blockers. The efficacy of P-CAB agents represented by vonoprazan in H. pylori eradication therapy has been widely verified.
The epidemiology of H. pylori infection among children in Slovenia has not been investigated. Therefore, we are conducting a study to examine the epidemiology of H. pylori and associated risk factors among children in Slovenia.
Helicobacter pylori is a gram-negative bacterium that resides in the stomach and can cause inflammation leading to long-term effects, such as gastric ulcers, cancer, and lymphoma of the stomach mucosal linings Previous research and analysis of H. pylori prevalence in populations have examined common risk factors that increase the likelihood of acquiring the bacteria. Some of the most commonly identified risk factors across various studies in different geographic populations are larger family size, less education, lower socioeconomic status, less frequent hygiene practices, and lower sanitation with specific emphasis on sources of water and defecation. aim of the work: Studying prevalence of Helicobacter Pylori infection and its related risk factors in children and young adults in Sohag governorate.
Helicobacter pylori is among the most common bacterial infections in humans. Helicobacter pylori is a Gram-negative, S -shaped rod .The most likely mode of transmission is fecal-oral or oral-oral. Helicobacter pylori infection is acquired in early life and continues to have a high prevalence, especially in developing countries. Growing antibiotic-resistant strains necessitate adapted treatments. The majority of children with Helicobacter pylori infection remain asymptomatic, although a percentage of the infected children do develop Helicobacter. pylori-associated diseases. Helicobacter pylori is closely associated with the development of gastritis, gastric or duodenal ulcers. Helicobacter pylori infection can manifest with abdominal pain or vomiting and, less often, refractory iron deficiency anemia or growth retardation. Helicobacter pylori can be associated, though rarely, with chronic autoimmune thrombocytopenia. Anemia, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, short stature, and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) have also been reported as possible extra-gastric manifestations of Helicobacter pylori infection . The diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori infection is made histologically by demonstrating the organism in the biopsy specimens. 13 C-urea breath tests and stool antigen tests are reliable noninvasive methods of detecting Helicobacter pylori infection in patients who do not require endoscopic evaluation. However, some guidelines recommend that non-invasive assessment methods are reserved to determine whether Helicobacter pylori has been eradicated not for diagnosis .However Helicobacter pylori-associated gastritis may, however, be an incidental histopathologic finding during upper endoscopy performed for unrelated indications such as the diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease, or celiac disease.
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a gram-negative flagellated bacterium that inhabits the gastric environment of 60.3% of the world population, and its prevalence is particularly high in countries with inferior socioeconomic conditions, exceeding 80% in some regions of the globe , This phenomenon occurs among other reasons, due to the unsatisfactory basic sanitation and high people aggregations observed in many under developed nations, scenarios that favour the oral-oral and fecal-oral transmissions of H.pylori.Another possible transmission route of this pathogen is the sexual route. Several studies have shown that the colonization of H.pylori could be negatively and positively associated with the induction and progression of several diseases .It has been reported to be linked to gastric and duodenal ulcer, gastric carcinoma, and gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and gastritis ,A positive association also reported between H.pylori infection and oesophageal cancer. Moreover, evidence is also available on the positive association between H.pylori and non gastrointestinal diseases such as diabetes mellitus , coronary artery disease , and anaemia. Abdominal pain and discomfort, nausea, burping, and loss of appetite are common symptoms of H.pylori infection. Other symptoms include, bloating, weight loss, and heart burn. Several approaches are used in the detection of H. pylori. Both the invasive and the non-invasive methods are employed in the detection of H. pylori in a patient. Many factors, however, influence choices in the method of diagnosis: availability of diagnostic instruments/materials, sampling population, and competency and experience of the physicians/clinicians . Invasive methods include endoscopic evaluation, histology, rapid urease test (RUT), and bacterial culture. Non-invasive methods include urea breath test (UBT), stool antigen test (SAT), serology, and molecular diagnostic approaches .Endoscopy is an accurate test for diagnosing the infection as well as the inflammation. Endoscopy also allows the determination of the severity of gastritis with biopsies as well as the presence of ulcers, MALT lymphoma and cancer. Real-time endoscopy along with conventional white light imaging (WLI)and image enhanced endoscopic (IEE)techniques, such as narrow-band imaging (NBI), linked color imaging (LCI) and blue laser imaging (BLI), appear to have important roles in clinical practice to identify H. pyloriinfected status . Another endoscopic technique is i-scan digital chromoendoscopy, which is a digital contrast method that enhances minute mucosal structures and subtle changes in color . The overall diagnostic accuracy of i-scan is 97% compared to 78% for WLI .
H. pylori is transmitted from individual to individual and causes chronic active gastritis in all infected people. H. pylori infection can result in gastroduodenal ulcers, atrophic gastritis (AG), gastric carcinoma, and gastric MALT lymphoma. More than 90% of gastric carcinomas are linked to H. pylori infection that causes chronic AG. A long course of the disease leads to the loss of gastric glands (chronic AG) followed by gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM), dysplasia, and cancer. This defines two cancer prevention strategies: primary that consists of detection and eradication of H. pylori and secondary that focuses on endoscopic screening for pre-neoplastic lesions and follow-up. Primary prevention planning requires reliable information on the H. pylori prevalence in the population. To design secondary prevention measures, an understanding of the age-sex structure of precancerous changes in the gastric mucosa (the prevalence of atrophic gastritis) is necessary. H. pylori eradication is the basis of primary prevention of gastric cancer (GC). Approximately 36,000 new cases of GC are registered in the Russian Federation each year, and more than 34,000 patients die from the disease. Men get sick 1.3 times more often than women, the peak incidence occurs at the age of over 50 years. The poor outcomes reflect the late stage of diagnosis of this potentially preventable and treatable cancer. The lack of up-to-date data on the H. pylori prevalence in Moscow hinders developing of measures for the detection and timely treatment of this infection as well as the reduction of GC morbidity and mortality.
