| prevalence of helicobacter (formerly campylobacter) pylori infection in saudia arabia, and comparison of those with and without upper gastrointestinal symptoms. | a causative role is now accepted for helicobacter (formerly campylobacter) pylori in type b gastritis, and evidence is accumulating that h. pylori infection plays a major contributory role in duodenal ulcer, gastric ulcer, and epidemic gastric cancer. the prevalence of h. pylori in any population remains unknown. we compared the prevalence of h. pylori infection in the riyadh region of saudia arabia, using a specific and sensitive elisa for igg antibody against the high molecular weight cell-ass ... | 1990 | 2375321 |
| seroprevalence of helicobacter pylori infection in large series of patients in an urban area of saudi arabia. | helicobacter pylori is present worldwide but few large population studies exist on the epidemiology of the infection in saudi arabia. this is an urban based study which was undertaken to determine the prevalence of h. pylori infection among outpatients suffering from gastrointestinal symptoms attending large hospital in riyadh, saudi arabia. | 2008 | 19077524 |
