目的 分析幽门螺杆菌(Helicobacter pylori, HP)根除治疗失败相关因素，为有效根除Hp提供建议和决策。 方法 对2005年5月-2008年12月经胃镜检查确诊的慢性胃炎或消化性溃疡，且Hp检测阳性并行含质子泵抑制剂三联或四联治疗的患者103例进行研究。治疗结束至少4周后，用14C呼气试验评估Hp是否成功根除，根据测试结果分为治疗失败组33例及治疗成功组70例。运用统一标准的调查表对每位患者进行相关因素调查，就调查表所涉及的因素在根除失败组与成功组间采用单因素及多因素Logistic回归进行分析。 结果 通过单因素分析依从性和饮酒在两组之间有统计学意义(P＜0.05)。Logistic多因素分析发现，依从性差是根除失败的独立危险因素。 结论 依从性差是治疗失败十分重要的影响因素。

Objective To investigate the efficacy of pantoprazole and omeprazole as part of triple therapy in treatment of duodenal ulcer. Methods Seventy-eight patients with duodenal ulcer and HP-positive were randomized to two groups. A random number table was used to generate random sequence. The sequence was not concealed. No blinding was used. Thirty-nine patients received pantoprazole 40 mg + amoxicillin 1.0 g + clarithromycin 0.5 g (PAC group) and 39 patients received omeprazole 20 mg + amoxicillin 1.0 g + clarithromycin 0.5 g (OAC group), twice daily with duration of 7 days. The follow-up time was 4 to 6 weeks. Results At the end of the treatment, 38 patients completed the study, and 1 patient lost to follow-up in the PAC group; thirty-seven patients completed the study, two patients lost to followup in the OAC group. The results of intention-to-treat analysis and per-protocol analysis showed that the HP eradication rates were 87.2%/89.5% in the PAC group and 87.2%/91.9% in the OAC group (P＞0.05); the clinical improvement rates were 79.4%/81.6% in the PAC group and 82.0%/86.5% in the OAC group (P＞0.05). The side effect rates were 10.6% in the PAC group and 8.1% in the OAC group (P＞0.05). No significant difference was found between the two groups (P＞0.05). Conclusions The PAC group is therapeutically effective for eradication of HP and improves symptoms and has an equivalent effect to OAC group for patients with HP-positive duodenal ulcer. Both drugs are well tolerated.
Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection is common worldwide, and the first-line eradication regimen recommended by domestic and foreign guidelines faces many challenges in practical application. In order to further improve the HP eradication rate and patient compliance, problems such as increased antibiotic resistance, a wide variety of drugs, and obvious drug side effects need to be solved urgently. In recent years, high-dose dual therapy of amoxicillin combined with proton pump inhibitor have achieved good eradication effect in the treatment of HP infection. This article reviews the action mechanism, safety and therapeutic effect of high-dose dual therapy, aiming to provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of probiotics-containing rescue regimen for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection. MethodsWe electronically searched PubMed, EMbase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), CBM, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP databases, and Chinese Clinical Trial Register (ChiCTR) and ClinicalTrial.gov from inception to December 2015, to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about probiotics-containing rescue regimen for the eradication of Hp infection. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsEleven RCTs involving 1888 patients were finally included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: Compared with the control group, probiotics-containing rescue regimen could significantly increase the eradication rate (ITT analysis: 80.3% vs. 69.3%, RR =1.15, 95%CI 1.10 to 1.22, P<0.00001; PP analysis: 86.5% vs. 74.3%, RR=1.16, 95%CI 1.11 to 1.22, P<0.00001), and decrease the incidence of total adverse reaction (ITT analysis: 19% vs. 29.2%, RR=0.60, 95%CI 0.40 to 0.91, P=0.02). Sensitivity analysis showed that the result was relatively stable. Publication bias test showed no evidence of substantial publication bias. ConclusionCurrent evidence indicates that probiotics-containing rescue regimen may contribute to improve eradication rate of Hp infection patients, and may reduce the occurrence of major gastrointestinal associated adverse reaction. Due to the limited quality and quantity of included studies, more high-quality RCTs are needed to verify the above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo discuss the etiological factors and risk factors for peptic ulcer hemorrhage with negative Helicobacter pylori (HP). MethodsA total of 182 patients with peptic ulcer treated in our hospital from January 2010 to December 2012 were chosen in our study. There were 85 cases of hemorrhage among them, with 50 HP positive and 35 HP negative ones. The other 97 patients were without hemorrhage. Etiological factors and correlated risk factors for peptic ulcer hemorrhage with HP negative were analyzed. ResultsHP negative rate of the hemorrhage group was 41.2%, while that rate of the non-hemorrhage group was 14.4%, and the difference was significant (P<0.05). The patients with peptic ulcer hemorrhage with negative HP had correlations with age, sex, wine drinking, taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicine and so on. ConclusionPeptic hemorrhage is easily complicated with peptic ulcer with negative HP, and it is intimately correlated with patients' age, sex, wine drinking history, and taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicine, etc.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy and safety of probiotics for the treatment of Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection in children. MethodsWe electronically searched The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data databases to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about probiotics for the treatment of H.pylori infection in children from inception to January 2015. The references of included studies and conference proceedings were manually searched for additional studies. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of include studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsA total of twelve RCTs were included, involving 1 227 patients. The result of meta-analysis showed that the probiotics adjuvant therapy group was superior to the control group in H.pylori eradication rates (OR=2.23, 95%CI 1.66 to 2.99, P<0.000 01) and the incidence of adverse effect (OR=0.31, 95%CI 0.18 to 0.53, P<0.000 1). ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that probiotics adjuvant therapy may be a new effective and safe solution in the treatment of H.pylori infections in children. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more higher quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo determine the expressions of Lgr5 protein and Ki-67 protein in gastric cancer tissues, and to analyze the possible function in the carcinogenesis and development of gastric cancer.MethodsThe SABC immunohistochemical method was adopted to examine the expressions of Lgr5 protein and Ki-67 protein in the 69 paraffin slices of gastric cancer from the patients, with the adjacent normal gastric tissue as the control group. The statistical relationship between the expressions of these two kinds of proteins and clinicopathologic features of gastric cancer was examined respectively.ResultsIn the gastric cancer tissue group, the expressions of Lgr5 protein and Ki-67 protein upregulated in comparison to the adjacent normal gastric tissue group [Lgr5 protein: 87.0% (60/69) versus 16.7% (5/30), χ2=45.81, P<0.001; Ki-67 protein: 79.7% (55/69) versus 36.7% (11/30), χ2=17.43, P<0.001]. The expressions of Lgr5 protein and Ki-67 protein all upregulated in the N1–N3 stage groups, lowly differentiated+undifferentiated groups and positive Helicobacter pylori (HP) groups. The expression of Lgr5 protein upregulated in the T3+T4 stage groups in comparison to T1+T2 stage groups, while, no significant relationship was found in the expression of Ki-67 protein and tumor T staging. No significant relationship was found between the gender or metastasis and the expression of these two proteins. There was a positive correlation between the Lgr5 protein expression and the Ki-67 protein expression in the gastric cancer (rs=0.340, P=0.004).ConclusionsIn the development progress of gastric cancer, the Lgr5 protein might get involved in the mechanism of tumor invasion, lymph nodal metastasis, and low differentiation. Ki-67 protein might get involved in the mechanism of lymph nodal metastasis and low differentiation. The two proteins, together with the HP infection, might play a synergistic role in tumorigenesis and development.
