The authors present the results of laser-based 13C-urea breath test (13C-UBT) application in diagnostics of Helicobacter pylori-associated diseases (chronic gastritis, duodenitis, and peptic ulcer). 13C-UBT data distribution before and after eradication therapy, as well as age distribution, were obtained. Correlations between the nosological forms and the rate of contamination were established.

Unlabelled: Early detection and intervention are crucial in managing Helicobacter pylori (HP) infections, which are associated with various gastrointestinal diseases in children. The traditional Kyoto gastritis scoring system, though effective, requires adaptation for non-invasive techniques like magnetic-controlled capsule endoscopy to enhance early diagnosis and improve patient comfort. This retrospective study involved 474 pediatric patients who underwent magnetic-controlled capsule endoscopy coupled with a C urea breath test at the Children's Hospital affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January to December 2023.
