| [campylobacter pylori and pathology of the gastro-duodenal mucosa. critical review of clinico-experimental and therapeutic contributions]. | over the past five years, a series of important contributions have appeared in the medical literature on the role of infective agents in the pathogenesis of gastric and duodenal inflammation. the analysis of the available data confirms the possible role of campylobacter pylori in causing acute inflammation of the type b antral gastritis, although its role in the pathogenesis of gastric and duodenal ulcer and of the socalled non ulcer dyspepsia is still doubtful. not even the results of therapeut ... | 1989 | 2661960 |
| touch cytology, a useful diagnostic method for diagnosis of upper gastrointestinal tract infections. | candida albicans, campylobacter pylori, and giardia lamblia are microorganisms that are frequently found in the upper gastrointestinal tract. a cytological smear of biopsies obtained at endoscopy was compared with the pathologic examination of biopsies. candida albicans was found in 55 patients, campylobacter pylori in 54, giardia lamblia in 31; cytology was positive in 43, 46, and 22 cases, respectively, and biopsy in 29, 43, and 22 cases. cytology was thus the only positive test in 26 cases wi ... | 1989 | 2663387 |

| biotyping of campylobacter pylori. | ninety-one biochemical tests were done on each of 50 strains of campylobacter pylori isolated from the gastric mucosa of patients with gastritis and peptic ulcers in singapore. the api zym system distinguished three biotypes of c. pylori. the organism was found to be biochemically different from c. jejuni and c. coli. we propose a biochemical identification kit that would be of use in identifying and differentiating biotypes of c. pylori, and would distinguish them from c. jejuni and c. coli. | 1989 | 2664183 |
| [the significance of campylobacter pylori infection in gastroenterologic and diabetic practice]. | the presence of campylobacter pylori was investigated in gastric antral biopsy specimens. in 50 consecutive patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal tract endoscopy microbiological cultures, histological examination and rapid urease test were parallel performed, and a 92 per cent sensitivity and 100 per cent specificity of rapid and cheap urease test were determined. afterwards--in a prospective study--311 patients were examined for c. p. by the rapid urease test only. c. p. was detected in 92 ... | 1989 | 2664637 |
| campylobacter pylori: swedish experiences. | all patients referred for gastroscopy were investigated by campylobacter pylori culture and antibody titration. an enzyme immunoassay was developed and found to have a negative predictive value of 0.997, which indicates that serologic tests could be used for screening of patients before gastroscopy. a close correlation was found between active and inactive duodenal and gastric ulcer and positive c. pylori culture. small open treatment trials with the antibiotics doxycycline, tinidazole, amoxycil ... | 1989 | 2665049 |
| review of the modes of action of colloidal bismuth subcitrate. | in recent years considerable progress has been made to elucidate the modes of action of colloidal bismuth subcitrate (cbs). cbs accelerates the healing of experimental chronic ulcers in rats by the formation of occlusive complexes and/or the accumulation of epidermal growth factor (egf) in the ulcer crater. cbs exhibits gastric protection (cytoprotection) against, for example, ethanol lesions. microscopic analysis of these lesions reveals that cbs protects against deep mucosal necrosis but not s ... | 1989 | 2665050 |
| the role of campylobacter pylori in the pathogenesis of peptic ulcer disease. | most patients with peptic ulceration have chronic gastritis, which typically involves predominantly the antrum. the association between campylobacter pylori-associated gastritis and peptic ulceration has recently been repeatedly demonstrated. evidence is accumulating that the bacterium plays a causal role in type-b chronic gastritis. c. pylori also colonizes the duodenum when gastric metaplasia is present. it is likely that the inflamed mucosa is more susceptible to ulcerogenic influences affect ... | 1989 | 2665051 |
| [non-ulcer dyspepsia and campylobacter pylori]. | dyspepsia, defined as chronic vague upper abdominal symptoms, is a common condition. the pathogenesis of this syndrome remains poorly understood. the etiologic role of campylobacter pylori and associated gastritis remain controversial though this organism colonizes the gastric antrum in one third to one half of patients with non-ulcer dyspepsia. recent studies raise the prospect that treatment with bismuth improves gastritis and is successful in treating symptoms in the campylobacter pylori posi ... | 1989 | 2667070 |

| campylobacter associated gastritis in patients with non-ulcer dyspepsia: a double blind placebo controlled trial with colloidal bismuth subcitrate. | fifty consecutive patients with non-ulcer dyspepsia and a campylobacter associated gastritis (cag) were randomly assigned to treatment with colloidal bismuth subcitrate (cbs) 240 mg twice daily or placebo, according to a double blind study design. after the blind treatment an 'open' treatment with cbs was started in both groups. twenty six patients treated with cbs showed a significant reduction in colonisation with campylobacter pylori and a significant improvement in the whitehead gastritis sc ... | 1989 | 2680795 |
| [bismuth aluminate in gastroenterology. therapeutic effects in chronic erosive campylobacter pylori-associated gastritis]. | 14 patients with epigastric pain and chronic active gastritis as well as endoscopically proven erosions underwent an open therapeutic trial with bismuth aluminate (3 x 300 mg/day) for three weeks. prior to and after treatment five biopsy specimens were taken from the antral mucosa 2 and 4 cm proximal to the pylorus for histological scoring of inflammatory activity and c. pylori detection, for urease quick test (cut) and culture. before treatment c. pylori was detected histologically and by cut i ... | 1989 | 2680842 |
| isolation of a campylobacter-like organism from healthy syrian hamsters (mesocricetus auratus). | a campylobacter-like organism was isolated from the ilea of normal hamsters. the organism was isolated from an ileal homogenate which was passed through a filter (0.65-micron pore size) and cultured on blood-agar plates in a microaerophilic atmosphere at 37 degrees c. pinpoint translucent colonies were first observed after 120 h of incubation. the isolated organism measured 2.0 to 3.5 microns in length (excluding flagella) by 0.17 to 0.25 micron in width and typically had a single terminal sheat ... | 1989 | 2681250 |
| campylobacter pylori. diagnosis and treatment. | there is now a plethora of methods to diagnose colonization of the human stomach with campylobacter pylori, such as microbiological culture on various media, identification of c. pylori in biopsies or biopsy smears using various stains or neurological methods, serological demonstration of specific anti-c. pylori antibodies, measuring urease activity with one of the many urease tests or using the 13c- or 14c-urea breath test. therapy should be directed at permanent eradication of the organism. er ... | 1989 | 2681390 |

| [analysis of the prevalence of anti-campylobacter pylori antibodies detected in a healthy human population]. | a study was made of the prevalence of anti c. pylori in the healthy adult population. the analytical method used was indirect immunofluorescence. an analysis was made of 231 sera (122 males and 109 females) from subjects 20 to 82 years-old. the global positivity detected was 21.1%. there was a slight rise in the percentage of positivities as age increased, reaching the maximum rate in the group over 50 years (2.1%). the titers detected were low and unrelated to age. no significant differences by ... | 1989 | 2682831 |
| duodenal ulcer disease: what role does campylobacter pylori play? | duodenal ulcer is a chronic relapsing condition which only became common early this century. many pathogenic factors have been identified including excess gastric acid secretion, cigarette smoking, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and reduced mucosal defence. there is a strong association of duodenal ulceration, gastric campylobacter pylori and antral (type-b) gastritis. the link between ulceration in the duodenum and c. pylori-associated antral gastritis may lie in the formation of gastric ... | 1989 | 2683020 |
| pathogenicity of campylobacter pylori--a causative factor in gastritis? | there is now much worldwide evidence that campylobacter pylori plays a pathogenic role in the aetiology of gastritis rather than colonizing an already inflamed gastric mucosa. 1) there is a very close association between the presence of c. pylori on the gastric mucosa and histologically confirmed type b chronic active gastritis. ninety percent of patients with c. pylori infection have gastritis whereas less than 5% of patients with normal mucosa are colonized. 2) c. pylori only colonizes gastric ... | 1989 | 2683021 |
| campylobacter pylori--therapy review. | although campylobacter pylori is sensitive to many antibiotics in vitro, few are effective in vivo. furthermore, treatment regimens which successfully clear the organism in vivo are associated with high recurrence rates when assessed one month following treatment. on the other hand, 85% of those individuals who are c. pylori negative 1 month after the cessation of therapy remain negative at 12 months and the infection can be considered to be eradicated. treatment with certain bismuth salts appea ... | 1989 | 2683022 |
| campylobacter pylori and ulcer disease--a causal connection? | a strong positive correlation has been demonstrated between the (antral mucosal) presence of campylobacter pylori and active duodenal and gastric ulceration. moreover, both duodenal and gastric ulcers heal, and remain in remission, as a consequence of therapeutic measures which eradicate c. pylori. however, the henle-koch postulates have not been fulfilled, because c. pylori has not been shown to produce ulcers. as for the claim that ulcer disease represents an infection with c. pylori because t ... | 1989 | 2683023 |
| campylobacter pylori--a role in non-ulcer dyspepsia? | non-ulcer dyspepsia (nud) is a common complaint in which no systematic illness or organic proximal alimentary tract disease can be identified. the pathophysiology of nud is probably heterogeneous. eighty-two subjects with nud were studied in a prospective randomized placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy of colloidal bismuth subcitrate (cbs) chewable tablets at a dose of four tablets daily for 1 month. the role of campylobacter pylori and associated histological gastritis was evaluated. ... | 1989 | 2683024 |

| minitek urea disk test, a sensitive and cost-effective method to screen for campylobacter pylori in gastric biopsies. | one hundred fifty-five biopsy specimens from the gastric mucosa of 81 patients undergoing routine endoscopy procedures were tested for the presence of campylobacter pylori by three methods: gram stain, culture, and modified minitek, a rapid urea disk test (bbl microbiology systems, cockeysville, md.). twenty-nine patients were infected with c. pylori. sensitivities and specificities of detection were 100 and 94% with the minitek test and 93 and 100% with gram stain, respectively. rapid testing b ... | 1989 | 2687317 |
| gastric campylobacter-like organisms: their role in gastric disease of laboratory animals. | campylobacter pylori, first isolated in 1982, is now recognized as a primary cause of acute gastritis in man, and there is substantial data suggesting that this organism also plays an important role in the pathogenesis of duodenal ulcers. more recently, campylobacter-like organisms and other morphologically distinct spiral bacteria have been isolated from gastric lesions in a variety of laboratory animal species. the zoonotic significance of c. pylori and other gastric spiral bacteria isolated f ... | 1989 | 2687581 |
| recurrence of duodenal ulcer and campylobacter pylori infection after eradication. | the role of campylobacter pylori gastritis in dyspepsia could be clarified more readily if reliable eradication therapy were available. antibiotic monotherapy and combined therapy with an antibiotic agent plus a bismuth compound have yielded poor long-term results. in this study, bismuth-tetracycline-metronidazole triple therapy has been used to eradicate c. pylori infection in 100 consecutive patients who were suffering from either a duodenal ulcer or non-ulcer dyspepsia. examination of a follo ... | 1989 | 2687668 |
| is antibacterial therapy against campylobacter pylori useful in the treatment of indigestion and chronic peptic ulceration? | campylobacter pylori is a spiral gram-negative rod that was first identified in human gastric mucosa in 1906. since 1983, interest in the organism has been renewed; it was first cultured, and has since been found to be very strongly associated with the histologic presence of antral gastritis. further, it has been suggested that this organism may play a role in peptic ulceration. c. pylori is sensitive to many different antibiotics as well as to bismuth. however, recrudescence of infection after ... | 1989 | 2688215 |
| [has campylobacter pylori infection any clinical relevance? methodologic, epidemiologic and clinical studies]. | the occurrence of campylobacter pylori (cp) was studied in 180 patients referred for endoscopy. the bacterium was detected by culture, histology (warthin-starry staining) and urease test of antral biopsy samples. patient groups were formed according to endoscopic diagnoses, clinical symptoms and antral mucosal histology. 50 cp positive patients with chronic antral gastritis were treated by bismuth subsalicylate (2,4 g/day) for 3 weeks. positivity by culture and/or silver-stained histology proved ... | 1989 | 2689946 |
| antigenic conservation of the ureases of spiral- and helical-shaped bacteria colonising the stomachs of man and animals. | a monoclonal antibody, cp11, has been produced which is directed against the ureas of campylobacter pylori. this antibody has been used to look for antigenic cross-reactivity, in other ureolytic and non-ureolytic campylobacters, by immunohistological techniques. it has also been used to investigate the helical-shaped organisms found in the stomach of the human, monkey and cat (cs1) and the ileum of the rat (st1). interestingly the antibody cross-reacted with the gastric helical organisms from th ... | 1989 | 2693196 |

| [campylobacter pylori gastritis: review of diagnostic methods]. | the presence of campylobacter pylori in gastric mucosa is a proof of active gastritis. diagnostic methods are based on endoscopy: culture--histology--cytology--urease test, or on noninvasive tests: c14 urea breath test and serology. the principles, results (sensitivity--specificity), advantages and problems of each test are discussed as well as the choice of a diagnostic method. in practice, we recommend the use of two methods, a morphological one (histology or cytology) and another based on bac ... | 1989 | 2700272 |
| campylobacter pylori as possible factor in peptic ulcer recurrence. | the author reviews the literature up to 1988 about the close association of campylobacter pylori with chronic active gastritis, duodenitis and peptic ulcer disease. no firm data however demonstrate that campylobacter pylori causes duodenal ulcer but long term eradication of this bacterium prevents duodenal ulcer relapse. | 1989 | 2700273 |
| [campylobacter pylori in diseases of the stomach and duodenum]. | campylobacter pylori is an organism living under mucus layer in the stomach and on the places of gastric mucosa metaplasia. it is known to be responsible for the development of gastritis, probably also it participates in the pathogenesis of dyspepsia without ulcer, while its role in the development of gastric and duodenal ulcer has not yet been explained completely. the authors present a characteristics of the organism and the methods of its detection. a number of investigations are discussed wh ... | 1989 | 2701041 |

| two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting of campylobacter pylori proteins. | whole-cell, outer-membrane protein, flagellum-associated antigens and partially purified urease of campylobacter pylori were analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. c. pylori strains were readily distinguished from strains of campylobacter jejuni, c. coli, and c. fetus by absence of major outer membrane proteins with mrs of 41,000 to 45,000. c. pylori strains also lacked the acidic surface-array proteins at mr 100,000 to 149,000 identified previously in serum-resistant strains of c. fet ... | 1989 | 2722241 |
| [incidence, intensity and clinical manifestations of antral gastritis in duodenal ulcer in women and their relation to campylobacter pylori]. | it was established during examination of 120 women with duodenal ulcer that in 48 percent of them the clinical disease manifestations were typical. in patients with an atypical disease course, the painful syndrome was not pronounced. it was not dependent on food intake or season. 34.2 percent of the patients had, instead of pains, a feeling of heaviness in the epigastric area, heartburn and eructation depending on the antral gastritis severity. the ulcers measured 5 mm and less in 75.6 percent o ... | 1989 | 2727917 |
| [campylobacter pylori in chronic gastritis]. | altogether 301 patients with duodenal, gastric and prepyloric ulcers and non-ulcer controls were examined to study whether the campylobacter pylori is related to ulcer itself or to coexisting chronic gastritis. histological sections from antral and body mucosa were stained according to warthin-starry, giemsa and with hematoxylin-eosin. the campylobacter pylori was strongly associated with chronic superficial gastritis in both ulcer and non-ulcer patients and in both antral and body mucosa. no di ... | 1989 | 2727918 |
| prevalence of campylobacter pylori in patients undergoing upper endoscopy. | from august 1987 through july 1988, we evaluated antral biopsy specimens for campylobacter pylori (cp) in 212 patients undergoing upper endoscopy. for those patients who had multiple endoscopies, the first endoscopy in which a urease test, histology, and culture were done was used to determine cp status. a patient was regarded as cp-positive if the culture was positive or if both a urease test and the histology were positive. blacks had an increased cp positivity (61.2%) compared to whites (31.5 ... | 1989 | 2729234 |
| campylobacter pylori in patients with dyspeptic symptoms and endoscopic evidence of erosion(s). | the relationship between campylobacter pylori (cp), histologic gastritis, and dyspeptic symptoms is becoming gradually clearer, but there is still a lack of knowledge of the natural history of treated or untreated gastritis. we examined serial biopsies from the gastric fundus, body, and antrum, and from the duodenum in 16 dyspeptic patients. patients with concomitant peptic ulcers, alcoholism, or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use were excluded. cp was present in the biopsies of 50% of pati ... | 1989 | 2729235 |

| new spiral bacterium in gastric mucosa. | a new spiral bacterium, distinct from campylobacter pylori, was found in the gastric mucosa of six patients with gastrointestinal symptoms. all patients had chronic active type b gastritis and four had oesophagitis. culture and microscopy for c pylori infection was negative. these unculturable spiral organisms were probably an incidental finding in patients presenting for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, but it is not possible to say from this small series whether these organisms cause chronic ... | 1989 | 2738164 |
| no acid, no polys--no "active" gastritis, no dyspepsia. a proposal. | the current dilemma in characterizing non-ulcer dyspepsia (nud) is due to the very nature of the term which has forced the dependence for diagnosis primarily on symptomatology and the absence of an ulcer crater as ascertained by radiographs or endoscopy. i propose a new classification which i believe is consistent and well founded, based on the presence of histologic gastritis and acid secretion of the stomach. four categories are presented: (a) normal histology, (b) "active" gastritis, (c) "ina ... | 1989 | 2738355 |
