• Conditions: Helicobacter Pylori Infection

• Registration Number: NCT01816269
• Lead Sponsor: Goztepe Training and Research Hospital

Brief Summary

Patients who had received H.pylori eradication treatment will be categorised as eradication and reinfection status and whether dental scaling has any influence on these results.

Detailed Description

Patients over 18 years with no comorbidities especially liver, cardiac and haemorrhagic diathesis and giving informed consent will be categorised according to their status of dental scaling, eradication and reinfection rates of h.pylori.

Statistical examination will include the multiple regression and Chi-Square.

The result will emphasize the influence of dental scaling on eradication (Presence of Hp cure 1-6 months after treatment) and reinfection ( reappearance of Hp 12 months later than the treatment).
