significance of campylobacter pylori. | there is an explosion of interest in the role of campylobacter pylori as a cause of active chronic gastritis. this curved spiraled microorganism can readily be detected within the mucus gel covering the stomach mucosa, especially in patients suffering from peptic ulcer disease or non-ulcer dyspepsia. to what extent this intriguing microorganism is causally related to peptic ulcer disease remains to be elucidated, but all the evidence which is available so far supports a pathogenetically importan ... | 1987 | 2979701 |
problems with clinical trials on campylobacter pylori. | clinical trials investigating campylobacter pylori infection have proven difficult to conduct and to interpret. those trials examining the relapse rates of duodenal ulcer disease among subjects in whom c. pylori infection has been eradicated have shown a significant reduction in recurrence rates. however, since the bismuthate compounds used in these trials have cytoprotective ulcer-healing properties, reduced relapse rates cannot be attributed to antibiotic activity alone. those trials examining ... | 1988 | 2980756 |
[the urease test for the diagnosis of campylobacter pylori infection]. | to evaluate the usefulness of urea media routinely applied in the diagnosis of campylobacter pylori infection, 50 patients with gastroduodenal pathology were studied. two biopsies of antral mucosa were taken; one of them was placed on urea agar base (difco) prepared without agar, and the other in saline for gram staining and culture in selective and enriched media. in 39 patients campylobacter pylori was found by gram staining and/or culture. 38 of them were urease test positive, 24 (61.5%) duri ... | 1989 | 2485236 |
campylobacter pylori in upper digestive tract diseases in children. | results of studies on the frequency of the occurrence of the bacteria, campylobacter pylori, in the mucous membrane of the gastric antrum are presented in this paper. the study was carried out on 61 children treated for chronic abdominal pain. the diagnosis was established on the basis of flexible endoscopy and histology of antral biopsies. the presence of campylobacter pylori was determined using the clo-test. the positive clo-test was obtained in 87.5% of children with gastritis, in 75% of chi ... | 1989 | 2489238 |
[in vitro activity of 16 antimicrobial agents against helicobacter (campylobacter) pylori]. | campylobacter pylori has been associated with the etiology of gastritis and duodenal ulcer. it has been shown that several drugs, among them a variety of antimicrobials, eliminate c. pylori from gastric mucosa at least for a time, resulting in an improvement of the patients' symptoms. the activity of 16 antimicrobials (ampicillin, cefazolin, cefuroxime, cefotaxime, imipenem, aztreonam, tigemonam, erythromycin, vancomycin, nalidixic acid, colistin , norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, difloxacin, ofloxac ... | 1989 | 2490433 |

dosage of colloidal bismuth subcitrate in duodenal ulcer healing and clearance of campylobacter pylori. | sixty consecutive patients with endoscopically proven duodenal ulcers were given colloidal bismuth subcitrate tablets either as 120 mg q.d.s. or 240 mg b.d., in a randomized single-blind study. the efficacy of each regimen was determined by endoscopic examination and antral biopsy at 4 weeks; if the ulcer remained unhealed, treatment was continued and endoscopy repeated at 8 weeks. the ulcer-healing efficacy of the two regimens was identical; however, in the four times daily group only 27% remai ... | 1990 | 2104073 |
the interaction between helicobacter pylori culture filtrate and indomethacin: effects on the integrity of human gastric antral mucosa and its prostaglandin e2 production in vitro. | histopathological methods and radioimmunoassay were used to assess the microstructure and prostaglandin e2 production by paired specimens of human gastric antral mucosa; the specimens were studied after 48 h of incubation in base-line tissue culture medium, helicobacter pylori culture filtrate, h. pylori culture control fluid, indomethacin, and h. pylori culture filtrate plus indomethacin. when applied alone, the filtrate did not affect the structure of the mucosal tissue or its prostaglandin e2 ... | 1990 | 2104089 |

helicobacter pylori in gastroduodenal disease. | helicobacter pylori is a recently described gram-negative micro-organism, which plays an important role in the pathogenesis of peptic ulcer disease and gastritis. in this paper an outline is given of the history and the pathophysiology of helicobacter pylori, as well as the therapeutic studies aimed at eradication of the bacterium in various clinical entities. | 1990 | 2110652 |
unsaturated fatty acids and viability of helicobacter (campylobacter) pylori. | helicobacter (campylobacter) pylori was found to be sensitive to the toxic effects of an unsaturated fatty acid (arachidonic acid). data are presented that support the hypothesis that exogenous catalase added to basal media enhances the growth of h. pylori by preventing the formation of toxic peroxidation products from long-chain unsaturated fatty acids. | 1990 | 2112559 |
hydrophobic characterisation of helicobacter (campylobacter) pylori. | cell-surface hydrophobicity of helicobacter (formerly campylobacter) pylori was tested by aqueous two-phase partitioning and hydrophobic interaction chromatography. the hydrophobicity of h. pylori greatly exceeded that of campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus, c. jejuni and bacillus subtilis. a partition coefficient (pc) of hydrophobicity in the two-phase system was determined for h. pylori. pc was dependent on ph and the pc value was increased by greater than 20-fold at ph 2.5. lithium cations incre ... | 1990 | 2113100 |

association of helicobacter pylori with acid peptic disease in karachi. | the prevalence of h. pylori infection in 200 dyspeptic patients undergoing upper g.i. endoscopy was investigated by histology and rapid urease test. h. pylori was associated with 86% cases of chronic gastritis, 84.6% cases of duodenal ulcers and 78.5% of gastric ulcers. none of the 15 histologically normal gastric biopsies showed h. pylori. | 1990 | 2123260 |
helicobacter pylori induces lymphocyte activation in peripheral blood cultures. | helicobacter pylori-induced in vitro stimulation of mononuclear cells was characterized by measuring dna synthesis response, interferon-gamma (ifn-gamma) secretion and the number of immunoglobulin-secreting cells. the strength of these responses was measured in 51 subjects comprising 36 dyspeptic patients from the gastroenterological unit and 15 members of the laboratory staff. nineteen subjects had antibodies to h. pylori and 32 did not. the responses were compared with respect to h. pylori ant ... | 1990 | 2124957 |
validation of a simplified carbon-14-urea breath test for routine use for detecting helicobacter [correction of heliobacter] pylori noninvasively. | a carbon-14 (14c) urea breath test for detecting helicobacter pylori with multiple breath sampling was developed. carbon-14-urea (110 kbq) administered orally to 18 normal subjects and to 82 patients with helicobacter infection. the exhaled 14c-labeled co2 was trapped at 10-min intervals for 90 min. the total 14c activity exhaled over 90 min was integrated and expressed in %activity of the total dose given. in normals, a mean of 0.59% +/- 0.24% was measured, resulting in an upper limit of normal ... | 1990 | 2125066 |
a placebo controlled trial of bismuth salicylate in helicobacter pylori associated gastritis. | in a placebo controlled prospective clinical trial of bismuth salicylate in helicobacter pylori associated gastritis, 52 adult patients were randomly allocated to treatment with bismuth salicylate or placebo. helicobacter pylori were totally cleared in 77% patients in bismuth group but none in placebo group (p less than 0.001). resolution of gastritis (p less than 0.001) and improvement of symptoms (p less than 0.01) were significantly better in patients where h. pylori infection cleared as comp ... | 1990 | 2125658 |
helicobacter pylori associated chronic gastritis and peptic ulceration in patients taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. | helicobacter pylori is now recognized as a frequent cause of histological chronic gastritis, and this has radically changed our understanding of this common condition. in the light of these developments, the traditional view that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are one of the common 'environmental' causes of chronic gastritis has been re-examined. gastric mucosal biopsies have been studied from 430 patients undergoing routine upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, 99 of whom had recently been t ... | 1990 | 2129639 |
