Objective: Aim: To study the impact of bariatric interventions on changes in the parameters of the intestinal microbiome.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: The research method is a prospective observational cohort monocentric study. 112 patients were included in the study.
Vitamin D deficiency (VDD) is a global problem, however, there were no Ukrainian guidelines devoted to its screening, prevention, and treatment, which became the reason for the Consensus creation. This article aimed to present the Consensus of Ukrainian experts devoted to VDD management. Following the creation of the multidisciplinary Consensus group, consent on the formation process, drafting and fine-tuning of key recommendations, and two rounds of voting, 14 final recommendations were successfully voted upon.

- Antibiotic resistance significantly affects the treatment success rates for Helicobacter pylori infections, with noted resistance levels in Europe.
- A study analyzed 2,852 naive patients and found that the 3-in-1 single capsule with bismuth, metronidazole, and tetracycline, as well as a quadruple therapy with bismuth, had the highest effectiveness against H. pylori, even with existing resistances.
- For non-naive patients, resistance was even higher, but the same 3-in-1 capsule and triple therapy with levofloxacin showed promising results, highlighting the need for effective treatment options based on resistance patterns.
Background & Aims: After a first Helicobacter pylori eradication attempt, approximately 20% of patients will remain infected. The aim of the current study was to assess the effectiveness and safety of second-line empiric treatment in Europe.
Methods: This international, multicenter, prospective, non-interventional registry aimed to evaluate the decisions and outcomes of H pylori management by European gastroenterologists.
Introduction: The safety of Helicobacter pylori eradication treatments and to what extent adverse events (AEs) influence therapeutic compliance in clinical practice are hardly known. Our aim was to assess the frequency, type, intensity, and duration of AEs, and their impact on compliance, for the most frequently used treatments in the "European Registry on Helicobacter pylori management."
Methods: Systematic prospective noninterventional registry of the clinical practice of European gastroenterologists (27 countries, 300 investigators) on the management of H.
Objective: The best approach for management remains unclear. An audit process is essential to ensure clinical practice is aligned with best standards of care.
Design: International multicentre prospective non-interventional registry starting in 2013 aimed to evaluate the decisions and outcomes in management by European gastroenterologists.
Background: Experience in Helicobacter pylori eradication treatment of patients allergic to penicillin is very scarce. A triple combination with a PPI, clarithromycin (C), and metronidazole (M) is often prescribed as the first option, although more recently the use of a quadruple therapy with PPI, bismuth (B), tetracycline (T), and M has been recommended.
Aim: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of first-line and rescue treatments in patients allergic to penicillin in the "European Registry of H pylori management" (Hp-EuReg).
