Usage: | Helicobacter pylori colonize the stomach in approximately 50% of the population, essentially for life unless eradicated by antibiotic treatment. H. pylori is usually acquired in childhood. Transmission can occur by iatrogenic, fecal-oral, and oral-oral routes. This gram-negative bacillus is the main risk factor for peptic ulcers, atrophic gastritis, gastric adenocarcinoma & gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (MALT). Essentially all H. pylori colonized persons have histologic gastritis but only 10-15% develop associated illnesses. Despite similar rates of H. pylori colonization in both genders, rates of these diseases among women are less than half of those in men. | ||||||
