简要总结
The overall prevalence of H. Pylori in the developing countries is 50.8%, with the highest one presented in Africa (79.1%). Hybrid therapy is supposed to be more effective as a first-line regimen for Helicobacter pylori infection in Egypt than the Reverse hybrid and non-bismuth Levofloxacin quadruple therapies. We are aiming here to compare the Hybrid, Reverse hybrid, and Levofloxacin quadruple therapies as first-line therapy, trying to reach the safest, cost-effective, and compliance-inducing regimen in Egypt. We will conduct a randomized controlled (interventional) study at Zagazig University Hospital, internal medicine department clinic, on 330 patients. 110 patients will be allocated to each regimen.
详细描述
Introduction:
Although the decreasing prevalence of Helicobacter Pylori (H. Pylori) worldwide, it remains high in developing countries. According to the most recent studies, the overall prevalence of H. Pylori in the developing countries is 50.8%, with the highest one presented in Africa (79.1%).
Unfortunately, the data on the prevalence of H. Pylori, are not available from all the countries of Africa. There is a paucity of information about the magnitude of the problem in Egypt, according to the few available studies, the prevalence is ranging from 71.7-91.7%.
The importance of H. Pylori infection lies in the major role in chronic gastritis, gastric ulcer, and duodenal ulcer, up to gastric adenocarcinoma, and gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma.
Diagnosis of H. Pylori can be through invasive tests, which are cumbersome and expensive despite their high sensitivity and specificity. On the contrary, there are more easily and cheaper non-invasive tests, especially H. Pylori stool antigen and urea breath test that has a higher sensitivity than serology.
