In a consecutive prospective series of 186 Swedish persons with the diagnosis of non-ulcer dyspepsia 71.5% were found to have gastritis and/or bulbar duodenitis in endoscopic biopsies. Gastroduodenitis was associated with campylobacter pylori (CP) in 83.5% of the cases. The double therapeutic approach using an antibiotic and a preparation containing bismuth in an uncontrolled therapeutic pilot trial resulted in improvement of the histological picture, disappearance of CP and amelioration of symptoms. It is concluded that CP-infection plays a central role in the pathogenesis of gastroduodenitis associated NUD.

Background: Efficacy of eradication regimens in (Hp) infection is commonly reported with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). In patients with corpus atrophic gastritis, characterized by impaired acid secretion, PPI treatment is questionable.
Objectives: The current study aimed to assess in clinical practice the tolerability and eradication rate of modified eradication regimens without PPI as first-line treatment in patients with histologically Hp-positive corpus atrophic gastritis.

Gastric cancer (GC) ranks among the top five most diagnosed cancers globally, with particularly high incidence and mortality rates observed in Asian regions. Despite certain advancements achieved through early screening and treatment strategies in many countries, GC continues to pose a significant public health challenge. Approximately 20% of patients infected with develop precancerous lesions, among which metaplasia is the most critical.

Aim: This study compared the short- and long-term efficacy of simple suture with omental patch repair (Graham patch) in open surgery versus laparoscopic omental patch repair (LOPR) in treating patients with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-associated gastric ulcers with perforation, and analyzed the incidence of complications.
Methods: The clinical information of patients who had stomach perforation repair surgery in Deqing People's Hospital between January 2021 and January 2022 was retrospectively analyzed.
