Article Synopsis
  • Helicobacter suis is a common non-H. pylori Helicobacter that can lead to several health issues, including gastritis and neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson's disease, and its pathogenicity varies among strains.
  • A study aimed to determine the prevalence of H. suis in pork products, finding it in 28.6% of samples, with 3 isolates showing the αCgT virulence gene and some exhibiting antibiotic multiresistance.
  • The research successfully used PCR and Fluorescence in situ Hybridization (FISH) methods to quickly and specifically detect H. suis in pork, highlighting its potential significance as a zoonotic pathogen.

Background And Objectives: Helicobacters are gastric and enterohepatic and live in the gut. The role of enterohepatic Helicobacters as intestinal pathogens is uncertain, while stomach Helicobacters are well-known. The prevalence of species in cat feces helps us understand their impact on cat health and human disease transmission.

Background: At present, eradication regimens for non-Helicobacter pylori Helicobacter (NHPH) have not been established yet. We investigated effectiveness of the standard triple-drug combination therapy for Helicobacter pylori eradication and of a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) monotherapy in eradication of NHPH.

Methods: Subjects were the patients who were diagnosed with NHPH-infected gastritis based on microscopic findings, helical-shaped organisms obviously larger than Helicobacter pylori, in the gastric mucosal specimens using Giemsa staining at Kenwakai Hospital between November 2010 and September 2021, whose NHPH species were identified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis of urease genes in endoscopically-biopsied samples, and who consented to NHPH eradication with either the triple-drug combination therapy for one week or a PPI monotherapy for six months.
