BACKGROUND: Bismuth quadruple therapies (BQTs) including bismuth, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and two antibiotics have been shown to be highly effective for treating Helicobacter pylori infection even in areas of high bacterial antibiotic resistance. OBJECTIVE: To describe the time trends of use, effectiveness and safety of BQT in Europe using the European Registry on Helicobacter pylori Management (Hp-EuReg). DESIGN: Patients registered in the Hp-EuReg from 2013 to 2021 who had received BQT were included. The regimens prescribed, the number of eradication attempts, effectiveness, adherence and safety were analysed. The effectiveness was assessed by modified intention to treat (mITT). Time-trend and multivariate analyses were performed to determine variables that predicted treatment success. RESULTS: Of the 49 690 patients included in the Hp-EuReg, 15 582 (31%) had received BQT. BQT use increased from 8.6% of all treatments in 2013 to 39% in 2021. Single-capsule BQT-containing bismuth, metronidazole and tetracycline-plus a PPI (single-capsule BQT, ScBQT) was the most frequent treatment mode (43%). Schemes that obtained an effectiveness above 90% were the 10-day ScBQT and 14-day BQT using tetracycline plus metronidazole, or amoxicillin plus either clarithromycin or metronidazole. Only ScBQT achieved above 90% cure rates in all the geographical areas studied. Using the ScBQT scheme, adherence, the use of standard or high-dose PPIs, 14-day prescriptions and the use of BQT as first-line treatment were significantly associated with higher mITT effectiveness. CONCLUSION: The use of BQT increased notably in Europe over the study period. A 10-day ScBQT was the scheme that most consistently achieved optimal effectiveness.

Helicobacter pylori patří stále mezi celosvětově nejčastější bakteriální infekce, a to i přes pokles v posledních čtyřech dekádách (v současné době činí cca 40–50 %). Infekce je častější v rozvojových zemích ve srovnání se zeměmi vyspělými. Intenzivní výzkum této chronické infekce objasnil patogenezi řady chorob žaludku i onemocnění extragastrických, včetně karcinomu. Tento článek přináší přehled poznatků o roli Helicobacter pylori u různých maligních chorob žaludku. Chronická infekce Helicobacter pylori je etiologickým faktorem karcinomu žaludku distálně od kardie (non-cardia gastric cancer) a většiny případů žaludečního MALT-lymfomu nízkého stupně. Byla ale popsána inverzní asociace helikobakterové infekce s ostatními žaludečními malignitami, jako jsou karcinom kardie nebo vzácný hereditární syndrom GAPPS (gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach). Dosud nebyla definitivně zodpovězena klíčová otázka, zda časná eradikace infekce Helicobacter pylori je účinnou prevencí vzniku karcinomu žaludku v budoucnosti. S jistou mírou spolehlivosti je možno konstatovat, že cílené vyšetřování a eradikace Helicobacter pylori snižuje incidenci a mortalitu karcinomu žaludku asijské populace. Tato zjištění dosud nelze beze zbytku aplikovat na populaci evropskou nebo americkou. Indikace eradikace Helicobacter pylori musí být zvažována uvážlivě, v souladu s principy personalizované medicíny.

Helicobacter pylori belongs to the most common bacterial infections worldwide; despite its decreasing prevalence during the past four decades (currently ~ 40–50%), it is more prevalent in developing countries compared to developed ones. Intensive research of chronic Helicobacter pylori infection clarified the pathogenesis of several gastric and extragastric diseases, including different cancers. This review pointed out the role of Helicobacter pylori in different gastric malignancies. Chronic Helicobacter pylori infection is an etiological factor in non--cardia gastric cancer and most cases of low-grade MALT lymphoma of the stomach. However, there is an inverse association of Helicobacter pylori infection with other gastric malignancies, like cardia gastric cancer or rare hereditary Gastric Adenocarcinoma and Proximal Polyposis of the Stomach syndrome (GAPPS). A crucial issue has not been definitely solved yet: whether early eradication of Helicobacter pylori could prevent sporadic gastric cancer in the future? There is moderate evidence that searching for and eradicating Helicobacter pylori reduces the incidence of gastric cancer and death from gastric cancer in healthy asymptomatic infected Asian individuals, although data cannot necessarily be extrapolated to European or US populations so far. Indication for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori must now be considered with caution, on an individual basis of personalized medicine.

UNLABELLED: We would like to provide an updated comprehensive perspective and identify the components linked to chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) without specific triggers in autoimmune atrophic gastritis (AAG). AAG is an organ-specific autoimmune disease that affects the corpus-fundus gastric mucosa. Although we lack a unified explanation of the underlying pathways, when considering all paediatric patients reported in the literature, alterations result in gastric neuroendocrine enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cell proliferation and paracrine release of histamine. Several mechanisms have been proposed for the pathogenesis of CSU, with much evidence pointing towards AAG and ECL cell responses, which may be implicated as potential factors contributing to CSU. The excessive production/release of histamine into the bloodstream could cause or trigger exacerbations of CSU in AAG, independent of Helicobacter pylori; thus, the release of histamine from ECL cells may be the primary modulator. CONCLUSION: Considering the understanding of these interactions, recognising the respective roles of AAG in the pathogenesis of CSU may strongly impact the diagnostic workup and management of unexplained/refractory CSU and may inform future research and interventions in the paediatric population. WHAT IS KNOWN: • Autoimmune atrophic gastritis is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disease characterised by the destruction of the oxyntic mucosa in the gastric body and fundus, mucosal atrophy, and metaplastic changes. • Autoimmune atrophic gastritis in paediatric patients is important because of the poor outcome and risk of malignancy and possibly underestimated entities primarily reported in single-case reports. WHAT IS NEW: • Upper gastrointestinal inflammatory disorders, independent of H. pylori, have been implicated as potential inducing factors in the development of chronic spontaneous urticaria. • If a paediatric patient presents with symptoms such as anaemia, reduced vitamin B12 levels, recurrent urticaria with no other detectable aetiology, positive anti-parietal cell antibodies, and elevated gastrin levels, autoimmune atrophic gastritis should be considered a possible cause of chronic urticaria.

Úvod a cíl: Infekce bakterií Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) zůstává významným celosvětovým problémem, vč. České republiky. Cílem této studie je poskytnout přehled současných léčebných přístupů v první linii u infekce H. pylori v České republice na základě dat z Evropského registru managementu H. pylori (Hp-EuReg) a zhodnotit nejefektivnější eradikační režimy. Metodika: Hp-EuReg je mezinárodní, multicentrický registr o léčbě H. pylori, ze kterého jsme čerpali data z České republiky od roku 2019 až do ledna 2024. Tento registr shromažďuje demografická data, diagnostické postupy, předepsané eradikační režimy a výsledný efekt terapie. Pro vyhodnocení účinnosti léčby byla provedena analýza podle původního léčebného záměru (mITT). Výsledky: Do analýzy bylo zařazeno 546 pacientů ze 14 center v České republice, u kterých byla zahájena první linie terapie H. pylori. Nízké dávky inhibitorů protonové pumpy (PPI – proton pump inhibitor) (tj. 20 mg omeprazolu dvakrát denně) byly podávány u 89 % pacientů a nejčastější délka eradikačního režimu byla 14 dní (40 %). Celková účinnost první linie léčby byla 85 %. Účinnost léčby nízkými dávkami PPI (20 mg omeprazolu dvakrát denně) a vysokými dávkami PPI (80 mg omeprazolu dvakrát denně) byla 86 %, pro standardní dávku PPI (40 mg omeprazolu dvakrát denně) 82,5 %. Účinnost léčby podle délky byla pro 7denní terapii 83 %, nižší než tomu bylo u 10- a 14denní terapie, která dosáhla úspěšnosti 86 %. Nejčastěji používaným eradikačním režimem byla trojkombinace PPI, amoxicilinu a klarithromycinu u 67 % pacientů, dosahující s účinností 87 % u 7- a 14denního režimu. Optimální účinnost (>90 % dle mITT) byla dosáhnuta u 10denní sekvenční terapie a 14denní nebismutová čtyřkombinační terapie, které obě zahrnují PPI, amoxicilin, klarithromycin a metronidazol, dosahující úspěšnosti 96 % (48/50 pacientů) a 97 % (34/35 pacientů). Zbývající terapie měly účinnost nižší než 90 %, nejnižší účinnost byla dosažena u kombinace PPI, klarihtromycin a metronidazol (66 %; 35/53 pacientů). Závěr: V České republice byla celkově účinnost empirické první linie terapie suboptimální (<90 %); avšak 10denní sekvenční terapie a 14denní čtyřkombinační terapie, obě zahrnující PPI, amoxicilin, klarithromycin a metronidazol, dosáhly úspěšnosti u více než 90 % pacientů.

Background and Aim: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection remains a significant public health concern worldwide, including in the Czech Republic. The study aims to provide an overview of the current first-line treatment approaches for H. pylori infection in the Czech Republic based on data from the European Registry on H. pylori Management (Hp-EuReg), and to evaluate the most effective treatment regimens. Methods: Hp--EuReg is an international multicentric registry on the management of H. pylori, from which we extracted data from the Czech Republic from 2019 to January 2024. This registry collects demographic information, diagnostic procedures, treatment prescriptions, and outcomes for H. pylori infection management by gastroenterologists. A modified intention-to-treat (mITT) analysis was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatments. Results: A total of 546 patients from 14 centres in the Czech Republic who receive first-line treatment were analysed. Low-dose (i.e.; 20 mg omeprazole equivalent twice daily) proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) were administered in 89% of patients, and the most common length of treatments was 14 days (40%). The overall mITT effectiveness of first-line treatment was 85%, obtaining 86% when prescriptions were combined either with low-dose (20 mg omeprazole equivalent twice daily), and high dose (80 mg omeprazole equivalent twice daily) PPIs, and 82.5% with standard-dose (40 mg omeprazole equivalent twice daily) PPIs. The effectiveness of 7-day prescriptions was reported to be 83%, lower than that of 10- and 14-day, both of which achieved effectiveness of 86%. The most frequently used treatment scheme was triple therapy with PPI, amoxicillin and clarithromycin, which was used in 67% of patients, reaching 87% effectiveness both with 7- and 14-day prescriptions. Optimal (>90% mITT) effectiveness was obtained with both 10-day, sequential therapy and with 14-day non-bismuth quadruple concomitant therapy including both PPI, amoxicillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole, providing 96% (48/50 patients) and 97% (34/35 patients) cure rates, respectively. The remaining therapies provided all an effectiveness lower than 90%, the lowest one obtained with PPI, clarithromycin and metronidazole (66%; 35/53 patients). Conclusions: In the Czech Republic, the first-line empirical treatment overall effectiveness was suboptimal (<90%); however, 10-day non-bismuth quadruple sequential and 14-day concomitant therapies, both composed of PPI, amoxicillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole, achieved over 90% cure rates.

OBJECTIVE: The role of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) in the pathological processes of the gastric mucosa is well understood. Decreasing trend in successful eradication of HP from the stomach was observed in last years. This lack of succes is mainly caused by increasing ATB resistance. Nevertheless other possible causes of this phenomenon are being explored. Thus, many studies have focused on the search for extragastric reservoirs as potential sources of persistence or reinfection after successful Hp eradication. The pathological potential of Hp at these localities has also been studied. METHODS: Our study aimed to determine the presence of Hp inside the salivary glands ductal system through its detection from sialolites. Subsequently, we tried to prove the possible ability of Hp to penetrate the salivary gland parenchyma by detecting Hp from the tissue of salivary tumors. Concrements and salivary tumor tissue samples were collected using sialendoscopy or standard surgery, and Hp detection and genotyping were performed through PCR. RESULTS: Hp was detected in 68.3% of the sialopathy samples. VacA S1AM1 was the most common genotype. CagA-positive genotype represented only 34% of the total number of positive samples. CONCLUSION: Our findings of Hp positivity in concrements provide compelling evidence of Hp presence in the ductal system of salivary glands. Confirmation of Hp presence in tumor tissue suggests its potential ability to infiltrate the gland's parenchyma. Further research is needed to confirm Hp's ability to cause local infection, as well as the possible causal association between Hp presence in the studied region, sialolithiasis, and salivary gland tumors.

The asymmetrical distribution of the cellular organelles inside the cell is maintained by a group of cell polarity proteins. The maintenance of polarity is one of the vital host defense mechanisms against pathogens, and the loss of it contributes to infection facilitation and cancer progression. Studies have suggested that infection of viruses and bacteria alters cell polarity. Helicobacter pylori and Epstein-Barr virus are group I carcinogens involved in the progression of multiple clinical conditions besides gastric cancer (GC) and Burkitt's lymphoma, respectively. Moreover, the coinfection of both these pathogens contributes to a highly aggressive form of GC. H. pylori and EBV target the host cell polarity complexes for their pathogenesis. H. pylori-associated proteins like CagA, VacA OipA, and urease were shown to imbalance the cellular homeostasis by altering the cell polarity. Similarly, EBV-associated genes LMP1, LMP2A, LMP2B, EBNA3C, and EBNA1 also contribute to altered cell asymmetry. This review summarized all the possible mechanisms involved in cell polarity deformation in H. pylori and EBV-infected epithelial cells. We have also discussed deregulated molecular pathways like NF-κB, TGF-β/SMAD, and β-catenin in H. pylori, EBV, and their coinfection that further modulate PAR, SCRIB, or CRB polarity complexes in epithelial cells.

Helicobacter pylori colonizes the human gastric mucosa of more than half of the human population and has a unique lipopolysaccharide (LPS) structure. LPS is the most dominant and suitable pathogen-associated molecular pattern that is detected via pattern recognition receptors. Although the priming effect of H. pylori LPS on reactive oxygen species (ROS) production of PMNs is lower than that of Escherichia coli O111:B4 LPS, LPS released from H. pylori associated with antibiotics eradication therapy may activate PMNs and increase ROS production. In addition, we describe the effects of H. pylori and E. coli O111:B4 LPSs on gene expression and the anti-inflammatory effect of lansoprazole (LPZ) in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. LPS isolated from H. pylori and E. coli O111:B4 alters toll-like receptor 2 (TLR) and TLR4 expressions similarly. However, LPS from E. coli O111:B4 and H. pylori caused a 1.8-fold and 1.5-fold increase, respectively, in CD14 expression. All LPS subtypes upregulated TNFα and IL6 expression in a concentration-dependent manner. Although E. coli O111:B4 LPS upregulated IL8R mRNA levels, H. pylori LPS did not (≦ 100 ng/mL). Gene expression levels of ITGAM demonstrated no significant change on using both LPSs. These different effects on the gene expression in PMNs may depend on variations in LPS structural modifications related to the acquired immunomodulatory properties of H. pylori LPS. Proton pump inhibitors, i.e., LPZ, are used in combination with antibiotics for the eradication therapy of H. pylori. LPZ and its acid-activated sulphenamide form AG-2000 suppress ROS production of PMNs in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that LPZ combination with antibiotics for H. pylori eradication reduces gastric inflammation by suppressing ROS release from PMNs.

Gastric cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths in China. Affecting more than 40% of the world's population, Helicobacter pylori is a major risk factor for gastric cancer. While previous clinical trials indicated that eradication of H. pylori could reduce gastric cancer risk, this remains to be shown using a population-based approach. We conducted a community-based, cluster-randomized, controlled, superiority intervention trial in Linqu County, China, with individuals who tested positive for H. pylori using a 13C-urea breath test randomly assigned to receiving either (1) a 10-day, quadruple anti-H. pylori treatment (comprising 20 mg of omeprazole, 750 mg of tetracycline, 400 mg of metronidazole and 300 mg of bismuth citrate) or (2) symptom alleviation treatment with a single daily dosage of omeprazole and bismuth citrate. H. pylori-negative individuals did not receive any treatment. We examined the incidence of gastric cancer as the primary outcome. A total of 180,284 eligible participants from 980 villages were enrolled over 11.8 years of follow-up, and a total of 1,035 cases of incident gastric cancer were documented. Individuals receiving anti-H. pylori therapy showed a modest reduction in gastric cancer incidence in intention-to-treat analyses (hazard ratio 0.86, 95% confidence interval 0.74-0.99), with a stronger effect observed for those having successful H. pylori eradication (hazard ratio 0.81, 95% confidence interval 0.69-0.96) than for those who failed treatment. Moderate adverse effects were reported in 1,345 participants during the 10-day treatment. We observed no severe intolerable adverse events during either treatment or follow-up. The findings suggest the potential for H. pylori mass screening and eradication as a public health policy for gastric cancer prevention.

BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori may be found during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGE) performed to diagnose celiac disease (CeD), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). We aimed to describe the frequency of H. pylori in children undergoing UGE for CeD, IBD, and EoE and the number of children receiving eradication treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective multicenter study from 14 countries included pediatric patients diagnosed with CeD, IBD, and EoE between January 2019 and December 2021. DATA COLLECTED: age, gender, hematologic parameters, endoscopic, histologic, and H. pylori culture results, and information on eradication treatment. RESULTS: H. pylori was identified in 349/3890 (9%) children [167 (48%) male, median 12 years (interquartile range 8.1-14.6)]. H. pylori was present in 10% (173/1733) CeD, 8.5% (110/1292) IBD and 7.6% (66/865) EoE patients (p = NS). The prevalence differed significantly between Europe (Eastern 5.2% (28/536), Southern 3.8% (78/2032), Western 5.6% (28/513)) and the Middle East 26.6% (215/809) [odds ratio (OR) 7.96 95% confidence interval (CI) (6.31-10.1) p < 0.0001]. Eradication treatment was prescribed in 131/349 (37.5%) patients, 34.6% CeD, 35.8% IBD, and 56.1% EoE. Predictors for recommending treatment included erosions/ulcers [OR 6.45 95% CI 3.62-11.47, p < 0.0001] and nodular gastritis [OR 2.25 95% CI 1.33-3.81, p 0.003]. Treatment rates were higher in centers with a low H. pylori prevalence (<20%) [OR 3.36 95% CI 1.47-7.66 p 0.004]. CONCLUSIONS: Identifying H. pylori incidentally during UGE performed for the most common gastrointestinal diseases varies significantly among regions but not among diseases. The indications for recommending treatment are not well defined, and less than 40% of children received treatment.

BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori infection poses a significant health burden worldwide, and its virulence factor CagA plays a pivotal role in its pathogenesis. METHODS: In this study, the interaction between H. pylori-infected AGS cells and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was investigated, with a focus on the modulation of CagA-mediated responses, investigated by western blotting. Both, the dose-dependent efficacy against H. pylori (growth curves, CFU assay) and the impact of the nanoparticles on AGS cells (MTT assay) were elucidated. RESULTS: AGS cells infected with H. pylori displayed dramatic morphological changes, characterized by elongation and a migratory phenotype, attributed to CagA activity. Preincubation of H. pylori with AgNPs affected these morphological changes in a concentration-dependent manner, suggesting a correlation between AgNPs concentration and CagA function. CONCLUSION: Our study highlights the nuanced interplay between host-pathogen interactions and the therapeutic potential of AgNPs in combating H. pylori infection and offers valuable insights into the multifaceted dynamics of CagA mediated responses.
