| Zusammenfassung: | Objective: The interactions between Helicobacter pylori (Hp)
and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) are a complex issue.
The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between
Hp infection and the gastric localization of Hp and reflux
esophagitis (RE) in adult patients.
Material and Method: Two hundred thirty-nine patients with RE
were compared with 229 age and sex matched participants in a
control group. Biopsy specimens obtained from the gastric antrum
and corpus were histologically evaluated.
Results: The prevalence of Hp infection was significantly lower in
the patients with RE than in the control group (Odds ratio 1.56,
95% CI 1.08-2.27; p=0.02, p |
