Helicobacter pylori antibodies were measured over 24 months in American Indian and Alaska Native persons who cleared their infections. Two months after treatment, 82% of H. pylori-negative persons remained seropositive. While there were declines in H. pylori antibodies for 12 months, after 24 months 71% of persons remained seropositive.

Objective: Globally, over 50% of the population is affected by , yet research on its prevalence and impact in patients with obesity undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is inconclusive. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of infection in individuals with obesity undergoing LSG, evaluate the percentage of postoperative staple-line leaks, and explore the potential link between infection and staple-line leaks.
Methods: This retrospective analysis assessed adult patients with class III obesity who underwent LSG between 2015 and 2020 at a tertiary care hospital in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Background/objectives: Gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) is considered an irreversible preneoplastic precursor for gastric adenocarcinoma in adults. However, its significance in children and the long-term outcome remain poorly understood.
Methods: All children diagnosed with GIM between 2000 and 2020 were identified at a large tertiary referral centre.

Dysbiosis in the gut microbiota plays a significant role in GI cancer development by influencing immune function and disrupting metabolic functions. Dysbiosis can drive carcinogenesis through pathways like immune dysregulation and the release of carcinogenic metabolites, and altered metabolism, genetic instability, and pro-inflammatory signalling, contributing to GI cancer initiation and progression. infection and genotoxins released from dysbiosis, lifestyle and dietary habits are other factors that contribute to GI cancer development.
