To conduct a time-trend analysis of resistance to antibiotics in Europe. The international prospective European Registry on Management (Hp-EuReg) collected data on all infected adult patients diagnosed with culture and antimicrobial susceptibility testing positive results that were registered at AEG-REDCap e-CRF until December 2020.

The Role of Statins on Eradication: Results from the European Registry on the Management of (Hp-EuReg).

This is a multicenter, prospective, non-interventional study aimed at evaluating the management of by European gastroenterologists.

Quality Control in the Slovenian National Colorectal Cancer Screening Program.

Objectives: The objective of the study was to assess the impact of an internal quality indicator (QI) audit on the quality level of colonoscopies in the National Colorectal Cancer Screening Program (NCCSP).

Design: Sixty-eight colonoscopists from 29 endoscopic centres participated in the NCCSP from April 2009 to January 2015. Controlled QIs were the percentage of total colonoscopies, adenoma detection rate (ADR), mean adenoma per procedure (MAP), mean adenoma per positive procedure (MAP+), right-sided ADR, sessile serrated lesion (SSL) detection rate, and patient responses to post-procedural questionnaires.
