The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between seven important . virulence factors and antibiotic resistance in patients with gastritis. . strains isolated from 33 patients with gastritis were examined. Antimicrobial susceptibilities were tested by GenoType® HelicoDR (Hain Life Science, Germany) test kit and RT-PCR. The virulence-factors were determined using conventional PCR. 39% of patients were resistant for clarithromycin and 27% of patients were resistant for fluoroquinolone. 15% of patients were resistant to both clarithromycin and fluoroquinolone. The . genotype was the most frequent allelic combination. Patients were possessed the , (6.1%); , (6.1%); , (15.1%); and , (3.0%) genotypes. 94% of patients with gastritis were positive for . gene. Also, there were no gene-positive gastritis patients. There was no significant correlation between the , , , , , , , , virulence genes, clarithromycin, and fluoroquinolone resistance. Herein, we report that the relationship between the . gene and gastritis. Although we found a correlation between . virulence factor and clinical outcome, there is a need for further studies to enlighten the relation between . virulence genes and antibiotic resistance.

Background: Emphysematous esophagitis is a very rare disease and there are only a few previous reports in the literature. Previously reported cases have resulted in emphysematous esophagitis following anterior cervical procedures or ingestion of hydrogen peroxide (HP). In this report, we describe a case in which a patient with emphysematous esophagitis accompanied by gastritis without the above predisposing factors was treated with conservative treatment.

Background: Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an increasingly common cause of food impaction.

Aims: This study aims to provide a nationwide analysis of food impaction in patients with or without EoE diagnosis, concentrating on patient demographics, interventions, outcomes, and development of predictive machine-learning models.

Methods: A retrospective assessment was conducted using Nationwide Emergency Department Sample data from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2019.

Background: Conventional white light endoscopic (WLE) findings of H. pylori-associated gastritis are often non-specific and may not correlate with histology. Narrow band imaging (NBI), an optical digital technique employed for the visualization of vessels and patterns of gastric mucosa may improve identification.
