Article Synopsis
- In 2017, gastric cancer was one of the most diagnosed cancers in Jordan, primarily linked to the Helicobacter pylori bacterium, yet the general population's awareness of its risks is unclear.
- A study conducted in 2021 with 933 participants revealed that while 63% had a high level of education, 70.5% obtained information about H. pylori from non-medical sources and 68.7% demonstrated low knowledge of the infection.
- Findings indicated that knowledge was significantly higher for those with medical ties or who consulted medical resources, highlighting the need for better public awareness and credible information sources on H. pylori in Jordan.
