Objective: We aimed to compare the plasma pantoprazole level (PPL) between patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and non-diabetic patients during Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication treatment and to explore the role of PPL in predicting the treatment success rates.
Methods: This study included 40 diabetic and 40 non-diabetic treatment-naive H. pylori-infected patients. Bismuth-based standard quadruple treatment for H. pylori eradication was used for 14 days in both groups. PPL was measured using the square-wave voltammetry method.
Results: H. pylori eradication rate (60.0% vs 87.5%, P = 0.005) and PPL (0.25 ± 0.03 μg/mL vs 0.34 ± 0.03 μg/mL, P < 0.001) was significantly lower in the diabetic group compared with the controls. Patients with treatment failure had lower PPL than those with successful treatment (P < 0.001). The receiver operating characteristics curve demonstrated that PPL had a significant predictive value for the outcome of H. pylori eradication.
Conclusion: Type 2 diabetic patients had lower PPL than the non-diabetic controls, which led to their lower H. pylori eradication rates.

Patient adherence is vital for Helicobacter pylori eradication. Simplifying therapy dosing schedules may promote patient adherence, enhance treatment success rates, and help mitigate the development of antibiotic resistance. We aimed to assess plasma and intragastric rifabutin, amoxicillin, and omeprazole concentrations comparing two dosing schedules of RHB-105 (every 8 h and a more flexible three-times daily schedule, at 8 a.

is increasingly resistant to antibiotics, significantly lowering eradication rates and posing a major public health challenge. This study investigated the distribution of antibiotic-resistant phenotypes and genotypes of in Hainan Province. It determined the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of six antibiotics using the E-test method and detected resistance genes via Sanger sequencing.

Background: The efficacy of the 14-day esomeprazole-amoxicillin (EA) dual therapy in eradicating () has been widely discussed previously. Vonoprazan, a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker, presents rapid, potent, and long-lasting acid inhibitory effects compared to esomeprazole. However, there is currently a scarcity of direct comparisons between the 10-day vonoprazan-amoxicillin (VA) and the 14-day EA dual therapy for eradication.

Introduction: () infection is highly prevalent globally and poses a significant public health challenge due to its link with chronic gastritis, peptic ulcers, and gastric malignancies. 's persistence within the gastric environment, particularly in case of infection with virulent strains, triggers chronic inflammatory responses and mucosal damage. Antibiotic therapy is the primary approach for eradication, but antibiotic resistance and adverse effects hinder treatment efficacy.

Gastric cancer remains a significant global health challenge, causing a substantial number of cancer-related deaths, particularly in China. While the exact causes of gastric cancer are still being investigated, () infection has been identified as the primary risk factor, which triggers chronic inflammation and a multistage progression of gastric lesions that may lead to carcinogenesis over a long latency time. Since the 1990s, numerous efforts have focused on assessing the effectiveness of eradication in preventing new cases of gastric cancer among both the general population and patients who have undergone early-stage cancer treatment.
