Abstract
Background Gastric cancer is a significant contributor to the global cancer burden. Risk prediction models aim to estimate future risk based on current and past information, and can be utilized for risk stratification in population screening programs for gastric cancer. This review aims to explore the research design of existing models, as well as the methods, variables, and performance of model construction. Methods Six databases were searched through to November 4, 2023 to identify appropriate studies. PRISMA extension for scoping reviews and the Arksey and O'Malley framework were followed. Data sources included PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP, focusing on gastric cancer risk prediction model studies. Results A total of 29 articles met the inclusion criteria, from which 28 original risk prediction models were identified that met the analysis criteria. The risk prediction model is screened, and the data extracted includes research characteristics, prediction variables selection, model construction methods and evaluation indicators. The area under the curve (AUC) of the models ranged from 0.560 to 0.989, while the C-statistics varied between 0.684 and 0.940. The number of predictor variables is mainly concentrated between 5 to 11. The top 5 most frequently included variables were age, helicobacter pylori (Hp), precancerous lesion, pepsinogen (PG), sex, and smoking. Age and Hp were the most consistently included variables. Conclusion This review enhances understanding of current gastric cancer risk prediction research and its future directions. The findings provide a strong scientific basis and technical support for developing more accurate gastric cancer risk models. We expect that these conclusions will point the way for future research and clinical practice in this area to assist in the early prevention and treatment of gastric cancer.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer and the fifth leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. Chronic infection by the bacterium Helicobacter pylori is the most prominent gastric cancer risk factor, but only 1-3% of infected individuals will develop gastric cancer. Cigarette smoking is another independent gastric cancer risk factor, and H. pylori- infected smokers are at a 2-11-fold increased risk of gastric cancer development, but the direct impacts of cigarette smoke on H. pylori pathogenesis remain unknown. In this study, male C57BL/6 mice were infected with H. pylori and began smoking within one week of infection. The mice were exposed to cigarette smoke (CS) five days/week for 8 weeks. CS exposure had no notable impact on gross gastric morphology or inflammatory status compared to filtered-air (FA) exposed controls in mock-infected mice. However, CS exposure significantly blunted H. pylori- induced gastric inflammatory responses, reducing gastric atrophy and pyloric metaplasia development. Despite blunting these classic pathological features of H. pylori infection, CS exposures increased DNA damage within the gastric epithelial cells and accelerated H. pylori- induced dysplasia onset in the INS-GAS gastric cancer model. These data suggest that cigarette smoking may clinically silence classic clinical symptoms of H. pylori infection but enhance the accumulation of mutations and accelerate gastric cancer initiation.

Magnetic-navigable silk fibroin microneedles for oral drug delivery: Ensuring long-lasting helicobacter pylori eradication and rapid hemostasis in the stomach. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 275:133584. [PMID: 38960271 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133584] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2024] [Revised: 06/17/2024] [Accepted: 06/29/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
The Helicobacter pylori infection in the stomach is the key reason for gastric mucosal bleeding. Eliminating gastric Helicobacter pylori by oral treatment remains difficult due to the presence of the gastric mucosal layer, which acts as a physical barrier to drugs via oral administration. In this study, a magnetic-navigable microneedle drug delivery platform (MNsD) for oral administration, featuring differential dual-mode drug release rate, was designed to fulfil rapid gastric hemostasis and overcome the gastric barriers for long-lasting Helicobacter pylori inhibition in stomach. MNs-D was created by rationally loading the carrier substrate, which was composed of silk fibroin with variable solubility, with antibiotics and hemostats. In vitro experiments showed MNs-D may sustainably eradicate Helicobacter pylori in stimulated gastric juices with long-lasting drug release (79 % in 24 h) and quickly establish hemostasis with instant drug release (92 % within 60 s). Most importantly, in vivo studies demonstrated MNs-D overcame the unsettling gastric mucosal barrier in traditional therapies of oral administration by insertion into the GML under magnetic navigation, resulting in sustained antibiotic release for long-lasting Helicobacter pylori eradiation (99 %). For differential dual-mode medication release against gastric Helicobacter pylori infections, this study may have firstly examined the effects of magnetic navigated microneedles administered orally.

GASTRO HEP ADVANCES 2024; 3:749-760. [PMID: 39280908 PMCID: PMC11401565 DOI: 10.1016/j.gastha.2024.04.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 09/18/2024]
Abstract
Background and Aims There are minimal recent population-based data on the epidemiology of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in the United States. Methods This retrospective cohort study evaluated H. pylori positivity rates in adult members of a large, community-based US population in 2000-2019. Time trends, demographic disparities, and birth cohort effects on H. pylori test positivity rates were analyzed. Results Among 751,322 individuals tested for H. pylori, the overall nonserological and serological test positivity rates were 18.2% (95% confidence interval [CI], 18.1%-18.4%) and 36.8% (95% CI, 36.6%-36.9%), respectively. Nonserological positivity rate (95% CI) was significantly higher among Asian (23.2% [22.8%-23.6%]), Black (25.1% [24.4%-25.8%]), and Hispanic (28.1% [27.7%-28.5%]) individuals than non-Hispanic White individuals (10.0% [9.8%-10.2%]), and was significantly higher among individuals with a non-English language preference (32.9% [32.3%-33.5%]) than those with English language preference (15.8% [15.6%-15.9%]). Patterns were similar for serological positivity, although with substantially higher rates. Serological positivity rates decreased over 2 decades but nonserological positivity rates initially decreased and then stabilized over the past decade. There was a significant decrease in both nonserological and serological positivity rates from older to younger birth cohorts. Older age, non-White race or Hispanic ethnicity, male sex, and non-English language preference were associated with high odds of H. pylori positivity. Conclusion The burden of H. pylori decreased over 2 decades, although the rates of active infection plateaued over the past decade in a diverse, community-based US population, likely attributable to birth cohort effects and demographic changes. Asian, Black, and Hispanic individuals had 2-3-fold higher rates of active H. pylori infection than non-Hispanic White individuals. These findings should inform targeted screening and eradication of H. pylori in high-risk US populations.

Abstract
The gastric milieu, because of its very low acidic pH, is very harsh for bacterial growth. The discovery of Helicobacter pylori (H.p.) has opened a new avenue for studies on the gastric microbiota, thus indicating that the stomach is not a sterile environment. Nowadays, new technologies of bacterial identification have demonstrated the existence of other microorganisms in the gastric habitat, which play an important role in health and disease. This bacterium possesses an arsenal of compounds which enable its survival but, at the same time, damage the gastric mucosa. Toxins, such as cytotoxin-associated gene A, vacuolar cytotoxin A, lipopolysaccharides, and adhesins, determine an inflammatory status of the gastric mucosa which may become chronic, ultimately leading to a gastric carcinoma. In the initial stage, H.p. persistence alters the gastric microbiota with a condition of dysbiosis, predisposing to inflammation. Probiotics and prebiotics exhibit beneficial effects on H.p. infection, and, among them, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial activities are the major ones. Moreover, the association of probiotics with prebiotics (synbiotics) to conventional anti-H.p. therapy contributes to a more efficacious eradication of the bacterium. Also, polyphenols, largely present in the vegetal kingdom, have been demonstrated to alleviate H.p.-dependent pathologies, even including the inhibition of tumorigenesis. The gastric microbiota composition in health and disease is described. Then, cellular and molecular mechanisms of H.p.-mediated damage are clarified. Finally, the use of probiotics, prebiotics, and polyphenols in experimental models and in patients infected with H.p. is discussed.

Fourteen-Day Tegoprazan-Amoxicillin Dual Therapy as the First-Line Treatment of Helicobacter pylori Infection (SHARE2301): A Multicenter, Noninferiority, Randomized Clinical Trial. Helicobacter 2024; 29:e13098. [PMID: 38853394 DOI: 10.1111/hel.13098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/19/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Potassium-competitive acid blockers have demonstrated enormous potential in the eradication treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection, with tegoprazan being one of the representatives. The available data on the safety and efficacy of tegoprazan in dual therapy are limited. MATERIALS AND METHODS The multicenter, noninferiority, randomized-controlled trial was conducted from May 2023 to March 2024. Treatment-naive subjects were randomly assigned (1:1) to enter either the tegoprazan-amoxicillin (TA) group (tegoprazan 50 mg twice daily and amoxicillin 750 mg four times daily) or the esomeprazole-amoxicillin (EA) group (esomeprazole 20 mg and amoxicillin 750 mg all four times daily), with a duration for 14 days. The primary outcome was eradication rate as determined by 13C-urea breath test, including per-protocol (PP) analysis and intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis. Secondary outcomes were adverse events and compliance. RESULTS A total of 368 individuals were included in the randomization. The eradication rates in the EA group and the TA group were 84.2% and 85.8%, respectively, according to an ITT analysis (p = 0.77), and 88.5% and 88.2%, respectively, according to PP analysis (p = 1.00). The eradication rates for the TA group were not inferior to those of the EA group in both PP (p = 0.0023) and ITT analyses (p = 0.0009). There were no significant statistical differences in the incidence of adverse events and compliance between the two groups. The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that poor compliance increased the risk of eradication failure (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Dual therapy containing tegoprazan is safe and effective to be considered as a clinical first-line treatment option, but further optimization involving antimicrobial susceptibility testing and adjustments in dosage and frequency is warranted.

Helicobacter 2024; 29:e13100. [PMID: 38873839 DOI: 10.1111/hel.13100] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2024] [Revised: 04/21/2024] [Accepted: 05/22/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The formation of gallstones is often accompanied by chronic inflammation, and the mechanisms underlying inflammation and stone formation are not fully understood. Our aim is to utilize single-cell transcriptomics, bulk transcriptomics, and microbiome data to explore key pathogenic bacteria that may contribute to chronic inflammation and gallstone formation, as well as their associated mechanisms. METHODS scRNA-seq data from a gallstone mouse model were extracted from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and analyzed using the FindCluster() package for cell clustering analysis. Bulk transcriptomics data from patients with gallstone were also extracted from the GEO database, and intergroup functional differences were assessed using GO and KEGG enrichment analysis. Additionally, 16S rRNA sequencing was performed on gallbladder mucosal samples from asymptomatic patients with gallstone (n = 6) and liver transplant donor gallbladder mucosal samples (n = 6) to identify key bacteria associated with stone formation and chronic inflammation. Animal models were constructed to investigate the mechanisms by which these key pathogenic bacterial genera promote gallstone formation. RESULTS Analysis of scRNA-seq data from the gallstone mouse model (GSE179524) revealed seven distinct cell clusters, with a significant increase in neutrophil numbers in the gallstone group. Analysis of bulk transcriptomics data from patients with gallstone (GSE202479) identified chronic inflammation in the gallbladder, potentially associated with dysbiosis of the gallbladder microbiota. 16S rRNA sequencing identified Helicobacter pylori as a key bacterium associated with gallbladder chronic inflammation and stone formation. CONCLUSIONS Dysbiosis of the gallbladder mucosal microbiota is implicated in gallstone disease and leads to chronic inflammation. This study identified H. pylori as a potential key mucosal resident bacterium contributing to gallstone formation and discovered its key pathogenic factor CagA, which causes damage to the gallbladder mucosal barrier. These findings provide important clues for the prevention and treatment of gallstones.

Vonoprazan-based therapies versus PPI-based therapies in patients with H. pylori infection: Systematic review and meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials. Helicobacter 2024; 29:e13094. [PMID: 38790090 DOI: 10.1111/hel.13094] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2024] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vonoprazan-amoxicillin (VA), vonoprazan-amoxicillin-clarithromycin (VAC), vonoprazan-based bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (VBQT), and PPI-based triple (PAC) or quadruple therapy (PBQT) for H. pylori infection with the consideration of duration of therapy and amoxicillin dose (H: high; L: low). MATERIALS AND METHODS PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched for eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) up to December 15, 2023. The efficacy outcome was eradication rate, and safety outcomes included the rates of adverse events and treatment discontinuation. RESULTS Twenty-seven RCTs were included. The pooled eradication rates were 82.8% for VA, 89.1% for VAC, and 91.8% for VBQT, which increased with the higher amoxicillin frequency of administration and extended duration of therapy within each regimen. There were no significant differences in eradication rate when comparing 7-VA versus 7-VAC and 14-VA versus 14-VAC. VA was at least comparable to PAC. The eradication rate did not differ significantly between 10-H-VA or 14-H-VA versus 14-PBQT. 7-L-VAC demonstrated higher eradication rate versus 7-PAC and comparable rate to 14-PAC. 14-VBQT showed higher eradication rates versus 14-PBQT. The adverse events rate was 19.3% for VA, 30.6% for VAC, and 38.4% for VBQT. VA had similar risk of adverse events versus VAC and significantly fewer adverse events compared to PBQT. The treatment discontinuation rate did not differ significantly between treatments. CONCLUSIONS The eradication rate of VBQT was the highest at above 90% followed by VAC and VA. VA was as effective as VAC and superior to PPI-based therapies with favorable safety, highlighting the potential of VA therapy as a promising alternative to traditional PPI-based therapies. VPZ-based triple or quadruple therapies was more effective than PPI-based therapies. Further studies are needed to establish the optimal treatment regimen especially in the western countries.

Kong QZ, Ju KP, Wan M, Liu J, Wu XQ, Li YY, Zuo XL, Li YQ. Comparative analysis of large language models in medical counseling: A focus on Helicobacter pylori infection. Helicobacter 2024; 29:e13055. [PMID: 39078641 DOI: 10.1111/hel.13055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2023] [Revised: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/31/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Large language models (LLMs) are promising medical counseling tools, but the reliability of responses remains unclear. We aimed to assess the feasibility of three popular LLMs as counseling tools for Helicobacter pylori infection in different counseling languages. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study was conducted between November 20 and December 1, 2023. Three large language models (ChatGPT 4.0 [LLM1], ChatGPT 3.5 [LLM2], and ERNIE Bot 4.0 [LLM3]) were input 15 H. pylori related questions each, once in English and once in Chinese. Each chat was conducted using the "New Chat" function to avoid bias from correlation interference. Responses were recorded and blindly assigned to three reviewers for scoring on three established Likert scales: accuracy (ranged 1-6 point), completeness (ranged 1-3 point), and comprehensibility (ranged 1-3 point). The acceptable thresholds for the scales were set at a minimum of 4, 2, and 2, respectively. Final various source and interlanguage comparisons were made. RESULTS The overall mean (SD) accuracy score was 4.80 (1.02), while 1.82 (0.78) for completeness score and 2.90 (0.36) for comprehensibility score. The acceptable proportions for the accuracy, completeness, and comprehensibility of the responses were 90%, 45.6%, and 100%, respectively. The acceptable proportion of overall completeness score for English responses was better than for Chinese responses (p = 0.034). For accuracy, the English responses of LLM3 were better than the Chinese responses (p = 0.0055). As for completeness, the English responses of LLM1 was better than the Chinese responses (p = 0.0257). For comprehensibility, the English responses of LLM1 was better than the Chinese responses (p = 0.0496). No differences were found between the various LLMs. CONCLUSIONS The LLMs responded satisfactorily to questions related to H. pylori infection. But further improving completeness and reliability, along with considering language nuances, is crucial for optimizing overall performance.

Helicobacter 2024; 29:e13054. [PMID: 38900537 DOI: 10.1111/hel.13054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The amoxicillin dose used in dual therapy to eradicate Helicobacter pylori varies across studies and the optimal amoxicillin dose for vonoprazan-based dual therapies remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of low- and high-dose amoxicillin in vonoprazan-amoxicillin dual therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS A comprehensive systematic review was conducted by searching databases from inception to October 2023. All trials that evaluated the effectiveness and safety of vonoprazan-amoxicillin dual therapy for eradicating H. pylori were included. Pooled eradication rate, incidence of adverse events, relative risks, and 95% confidence intervals are presented. RESULTS Eighteen studies with 12 low-dose amoxicillin (VLA) and 13 high-dose amoxicillin (VHA) arms were included. The pooled eradication rates were 82.4% and 86.8% for VLA therapy, and 86.0% and 90.9% for VHA therapy by the intention-to-treat and per-protocol analyses, respectively. In the subgroup analysis stratified by duration, the eradication rates achieved in 7 days, 10 days, and 14 days treatments with VLA and VHA dual therapies were 80.8%, 84.2%, 83.1%, and 67.3%, 88.8%, 87.5%, respectively. In the four randomized controlled trials that directly compared VLA and VHA dual therapies, the efficacy was not statistically different in the intention-to-treat (76.9% vs 81.4%, p = 0.337) and per-protocol (81.6% vs 84.0%, p = 0.166) analyses. Additionally, the incidence of adverse events (p = 0.965) and compliance (p = 0.994) were similar in both groups. CONCLUSION VLA therapy demonstrated comparable efficacy and safety to VHA therapy, along with regional differences. An appropriately extended treatment duration may be critical for therapeutic optimization of vonoprazan-amoxicillin treatment.

[PMID: 39052777 PMCID: PMC11275522 DOI: 10.1080/19490976.2024.2379439] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2024] [Revised: 06/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Efflux pumps play a crucial role in the development of antibiotic resistance. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between efflux pump gene expression and resistance gene mutations in Helicobacter pylori. Twenty-six clinical strains with varying resistance characteristics were selected for further experiment. Seven susceptible strains were induced to become resistant, and the expression of efflux pump genes and point mutations were recorded. Four susceptible strains were selected to undergo candidate mutation construction, and changes in efflux pump gene expression were detected. Efflux pump knockout strains were constructed, and their effects on preventing and reversing antibiotic resistance gene mutations were assessed. Results showed that the expression of efflux pump genes hefA and hefD was significantly higher in the multidrug-resistant group compared to other groups. During the process of antibiotic-induced resistance, efflux pump gene expression did not exhibit a steady increase or decrease. Strains with the A2143G or A2142G point mutations in 23S rRNA exhibited lower hefA gene expression. Strains with mutations at 87K/91N, 87N/91 G, 87K/91D, or 87N/91Y in gyrA and the 194insertA mutation in rdxA showed higher hefA gene expression compared to the wild-type strain. During the process of antibiotic-induced resistance, the strain with the knockout of the efflux pump gene hefA developed mutations in the 23S rRNA, gyrA, or rdxA genes later compared to the wild-type strain. Knockout of the efflux pump gene could reverse the phenotypic resistance to clarithromycin or metronidazole in some strains but had no effect on reverse resistance gene mutation. This study suggested that different resistance gene point mutations may have varying effects on efflux pump gene expression. Knockout of the efflux pump gene can delay or prevent antibiotic resistance gene mutations to some extent and can reverse phenotypic resistance to clarithromycin and metronidazole in certain strains.

Independent Risk Factors Predicting Eradication Failure of Hybrid Therapy for the First-Line Treatment of Helicobacter pylori Infection. Microorganisms 2023; 12:6. [PMID: 38276175 PMCID: PMC10820614 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms12010006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Hybrid therapy is a recommended first-line anti-H. pylori treatment option in the American College of Gastroenterology guidelines, the Bangkok Consensus Report on H. pylori management, and the Taiwan H. pylori Consensus Report. However, the cure rates of eradication therapy in some countries are suboptimal, and the factors affecting the treatment efficacy of hybrid therapy remain unclear. The aim of this study is to identify the independent risk factors predicting eradication failure of hybrid therapy in the first-line treatment of H. pylori infection. A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 589 H. pylori-infected patients who received 14-day hybrid therapy between September 2008 and December 2021 in ten hospitals in Taiwan. The patients received a hybrid therapy containing a dual regimen with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) plus amoxicillin for an initial 7 days and a quadruple regimen with a PPI plus amoxicillin, metronidazole and clarithromycin for a final 7 days. Post-treatment H. pylori status was assessed at least 4 weeks after completion of treatment. The relationships between eradication rate and 13 host and bacterial factors were investigated via univariate and multivariate analyses. In total, 589 patients infected with H. pylori infection were included in the study. The eradication rates of hybrid therapy were determined as 93.0% (95% confidence interval (CI): 90.9-95.1%), 94.4% (95% CI: 93.8-97.2%) and 95.5%% (95% CI: 93.8-97.2%) by intention-to-treat, modified intention-to-treat and per-protocol analyses, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that the eradication rate of clarithromycin-resistant strains was lower than that of clarithromcyin-susceptible strains (83.3% (45/54) vs. 97.6%% (280/287); p < 0.001). Subjects with poor drug adherence had a lower cure rate than those with good adherence (73.3% (11/15) vs. 95.5% (534/559); p = 0.005). Other factors such as smoking, alcohol drinking, coffee consumption, tea consumption and type of PPI were not significantly associated with cure rate. Multivariate analysis revealed that clarithromcyin resistance of H. pylori and poor drug adherence were independent risk factors related to eradication failure of hybrid therapy with odds ratios of 4.8 (95% CI: 1.5 to 16.1; p = 0.009) and 8.2 (95% CI: 1.5 to 43.5; p = 0.013), respectively. A 14-day hybrid therapy has a high eradication rate for H. pylori infection in Taiwan, while clarithromycin resistance of H. pylori and poor drug adherence are independent risk factors predicting eradication failure of hybrid therapy.
