infects half of the world population and is the leading cause of gastric cancer. We previously demonstrated that gastric cancer risk is associated with gastric microbiota. Specifically, gastric urease-positive and had contrasting effects on -associated gastric pathology and immune responses in germ-free INS-GAS mice.

Methods: In a multicentre, phase III, pragmatic, double-blind, randomized controlled superiority trial, cardiac surgery patients with >3 months of AF were randomized 1:1 to adjunct AF surgery or control.
In populations with similar prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection, cancer risk can vary dramatically. Changes in composition or structure of bacterial communities in the stomach, either at the time of exposure or over the course of H. pylori infection, may contribute to gastric pathology.

To characterize infection in a colony of rhesus macaques () used in cognitive neuroscience research. Inquiries into the nature of in nonhuman primates are required to further define the organism's virulence and the experimental animal's gastric microbiome.
