Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. Pylori), microaerophilic spiral-shaped Gram-negative bacteria which colonize the gastric mucosa of human population, is the leading causal factor in the development of a whole range of diseases of the gastroduodenal region (chronic gastritis, gastric and duodenal ulcer disease, MALT lymphoma and gastric adenocarcinoma). Since the discovery of H. pylori infection and the identification of its leading role in the development of a range of gastroenterological diseases, researchers have begun to actively study the potential trigger significance of this pathogen in the development of extragastric pathology. At the epidemiological level, H. pylori infection has been shown to be frequently associated with skin diseases such as rosacea, acne, chronic urticaria and psoriasis, although the clinical significance of these associations remains clouded. In fact, recent meta-analytic studies (2019–2024) demonstrate an increased risk of developing the above diseases in H. pylori-infected individuals with odds ratios ranging from 1.19 to 3.00. On the other hand, not all studies have showed that eradication therapy of this microorganism helps reduce the clinical severity of symptoms of skin diseases, which is hypothetically explained only by the trigger role of infection within the complex pathogenesis. In a modern light, such associations can be viewed in terms of pathogenetic findings through the implementation of the syndrome of increased epithelial permeability (SIEP). The chronic gastritis caused by H. pylori infection is believed to lead to increased permeability of the epithelial lining of the stomach, as well as the walls of the mucosal vessels and a higher exposure of bacterial and nutritional antigens in the systemic circulation, which can induce both local release of inflammatory mediators in tissues and systemic immunological reactions (autoimmune and inflammatory processes, formation of molecular mimicry-induced immune complexes and cross-reactive antibodies).

Abstract
According to the Maastricht VI consensus, the triple therapy (PPI + clarithromycin + amoxicillin) and bismuth-based quadruple therapy (PPI + bismuth + tetracycline + metronidazole) are considered and may be proscribed empirically as first-line regimens in the regions with low clarithromycin resistance rates (<15%). In the regions with high clarithromycin resistance rates (> 15%), as well as in the regions with unknown resistance to this antibacterial agent, it is recommended to use classical quadruple therapy with bismuth drugs as the main choice and quadruple therapy without bismuth drugs (“simultaneous” or “concomitant”) as an alternative. The second-line regimens of empiric choice (when antimicrobial susceptibility testing is not available) include fluoroquinolone-based quadruple therapy (PPI + levofloxacin + amoxicillin + bismuth) or fluoroquinolone-based triple therapy (PPI + levofloxacin + amoxicillin) and bismuth-based quadruple therapy. The Maastricht VI consensus regulates the use of rifabutin-based triple therapy (PPI + amoxicillin + rifabutin) as a “rescue” therapy, if the above ET schemes are ineffective and there is no possibility to conduct an antimicrobial susceptibility test. In its latest clinical guidelines, the Russian Gastroenterological Association (RGA) recommends with a view to achieving maximum treatment efficiency during classic triple ET and levelling the risk of further progression of clarithromycin resistance in Russia to take additional measures to increase its effectiveness (detailed instruction of a patient and control over strict adherence to the prescribed regimen, prolonging the course up to 14 days; prescribing PPI at increased dose twice a day; the latest generation PPIs (rabeprazole and esomeprazole); adding bismuth tripotassium dicitrate (240 mg 2 times a day) to the standard triple therapy; adding cytoprotector rebamipide (100 mg 3 times a day) to the standard triple therapy; adding a probiotic with proven efficacy to the standard triple therapy within controlled studies).

Abstract
Chronic gastritis is a group of chronic diseases that are morphologically characterized by persistent inflammatory infiltrate and impaired cellular turnover with the development of intestinal metaplasia, atrophy, and epithelial dysplasia in the gastric mucosa. Numerous studies have shown that Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is the absolutely dominant etiological factor of CG worldwide. Given this fact, the Expert Council of the latest Maastricht VI 2022 consensus recommended that H. pylori is to be treated as a pathogen, which always results in the development of CG. The prevalence of H. pylori-associated CG is about 44.3–48.5%, however 80–90% of cases are asymptomatic. In H. pyloriinfected patients with dyspepsia and no other pathology of the gastroduodenal region, which has been confirmed endoscopically, clinical manifestations can be interpreted as part of H. pyloriassociated CG if a long-lasting remission of symptoms has been achieved after successful eradication therapy. While patients with persistent dyspeptic symptoms can be considered as patients with functional dyspepsia, despite successful eradication therapy. Advanced endoscopic techniques (narrow band imaging (NBI) endoscopy, high resolution endoscopy, chromoendoscopy, laser confocal endomicroscopy) are precise and reproducible methods for diagnosing precancerous changes in the mucous membrane. However, the diagnosis of CG requires that inflammatory cells have been histologically detected in the lamina propria. The CG therapy aims to reach a persistent relief of dyspeptic symptoms of the disease (if any), as well as resolution of inflammatory processes and prevention of the progression of precancerous changes in the gastric mucosa. The achievement of these goals is primarily determined by the timely diagnosis of H. pylori infection and successful eradication therapy.

Abstract
Aim. To perform a meta-analysis of the data on Rebamipide efficacy and safety as a part of Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy in Russian patients.
Materials and methods. A search for original studies was conducted in the electronic database of the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI) on the Scientific Electronic Library (SEL Elibrary.ru). Google (Google.com) was used for the "grey" search. All Russian controlled studies comparing the efficacy and/or safety of Rebamipide as a part of the regimen of H. pylori eradication therapy were included in the final analysis.
Results. In 6 included controlled trials with a cumulative population (considering double comparisons between multiple groups) of 531 patients (273 in Rebamipide groups and 258 in groups without Rebamipide), the pooled eradication effectiveness was 90.376% (95% confidence interval CI 86.31193.560) in patients receiving Rebamipide and 81.681% (95% CI 76.49986.141) in patients receiving eradication regimens without Rebamipide. The meta-analysis showed that the Rebamipide addition to eradication regimens significantly improved efficacy (odds ratio 2.162, 95% CI 1.2683.685; p=0.005). No significant heterogeneity was found between study results (p=0.863; I2=0.00%); therefore, a fixed effects model was used in the resulting analysis. In addition, the meta-analysis of included studies showed a reduction of adverse events (odds ratio 0.569, 95% CI 0.3330.970) in the groups receiving Rebamipide; p=0.038). This effect of Rebamipide deserves special attention and requires additional study, as the result was at the border of statistical significance in the subanalysis of three studies with a large margin of risk reduction in one of them (with the largest sample of patients).
Conclusion. The present meta-analysis demonstrated that the Rebamipide addition to H. pylori eradication regimens significantly improves the treatment effectiveness in the Russian patient population.

Abstract
Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is a chronic polyetiological recurrent disease of gastroduodenal region. In most cases, the pathogenesis of PU is caused by imbalance between the aggressive factors and protective factors of the gastric or duodenal mucosa. Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including aspirin, are the major causative factors leading to PUD development. 65% of gastric ulcers and 80% of duodenal ulcers were found to be associated with H. pylori infection. In turn, NSAIDs account for 30% of gastric ulcers and 15% of duodenal ulcers. About 0.1–1% of all PUs are caused by Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Abdominal pain is the leading symptom in the clinical findings of patients with exacerbation of PUD. Dyspeptic syndrome (vomiting, nausea, belching, abnormal bowel pattern) is much less common in patients with PUD. Endoscopic examination of the upper gastrointestinal tract is currently the gold standard test used in the diagnosis of PUD and is recommended for all patients suspected of having this disease (unless contraindicated). Antisecretory therapy including proton pump inhibitors is the main approach to the treatment of PUD, as well as the prevention of its complications. Integral to the treatment of patients with H. pylori-associated PU is the eradication therapy of the infection. It is reasonable to use a cytoprotector rebamipide, which accelerates ulcer healing and improves the resulting scar quality, as part of the pharmacotherapy of PUD. In addition, the use of rebamipide in H. pylori eradication therapy regimens contributes to increased efficiency of elimination of the microorganisms.

Abstract
Objective: To assess compliance of physicians with diagnostic and management guidelines for H. pylori-associated diseases with a question-naire-based survey.Materials and methods: We conducted an anonymous voluntary online survey of 775 physicians of the following specialties: internal medicine 459 (59.2%), gastroenterology 279 (36%), and endoscopy 34 (4.4%). The respondents expressed their level of agreement with the questionnaire items as follows: 0 – I do not know, 1 – disagree, 2 – partially agree, and 3 – fully agree.Results: 613 (79.4%) of the physicians fully agreed to diagnose and treat H. pylori in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis, 602 (78.0%) in the 1 st degree relatives of gastric cancer patients, 525 (68.0%) in patients with chronic superficial gastritis, 423 (54.8%) in peptic ulcer at remission, and 336 (43.4%) in those with dyspepsia syndrome. The physicians were equally compliant with eradication therapy in the patients, for whom long term use of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) or non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) is being planned (386 (50.0%) and 397 (51.4%), respectively). Internists were less compliant with diagnosis and management of H. pylori in patients taking both PPI (χ2 = 66.525, p = 0.004) and NSAID (χ2 = 103.354, p = 0.003). Among the primary diagnostic tools for H. pylori the physicians preferred 13/14С-urease breath test (545 physicians, or 70.6%) and gastric bioptate morphology (574, or 74.4%), and among the control diagnostic methods they chose fаeces analyses (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and polymerase chain reaction). The respondents considered bismuth-enhanced standard triple therapy with clarithromycin to be the most effective regimen for the 1 st line eradication therapy (606, 78.5%). To increase the efficacy of eradication therapy, the physicians were more prone to administer esomeprazole or rabeprazole (70.6%), bismuth-based agents (79.4%), than to use rebamipid (35%), probiotics (44.9%) and/or to double PPI doses (44.2%). The respondents expressed their concerns with low patient compliance to treatment (59.4%) and limited diagnostic capabilities (49.4%).Conclusion: Physician's compliance with the guidelines on diagnosis and management of H. pylori-associated diseases is adequate and might depend on both their awareness and availability of the proposed diagnostic and therapeutic methods.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are baseline drugs for induction and maintenance of remission in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). PPIs have proven to be highly effective in healing esophageal mucosal lesions and relieving the symptoms of the disease in most cases. However, according to the literature data, the incidence rate of clinical ineffectiveness of PPIs in the form of partial or complete persistence of current symptoms during administration of standard doses of PPIs ranges from 10 to 40%. Optimization of GERD therapy in PPI refractory patients is a significant challenge. In most cases, experts advise to increase a dose / dosage frequency of PPIs, switch to CYP2C19-independent PPIs (rabeprazole, esomeprazole, dexlansoprazole), add an esophagoprotective or promotility agents to therapy. At the same time, these recommendations have a limited effect in some patients, which opens up opportunities for looking for new solutions related to the optimization of GERD therapy. Today there is growing evidence of the relevance of the role of disruption of the cytoprotective and barrier properties of the esophageal mucosa in the genesis of GERD and the formation of refractoriness. Intercellular contacts ensure the integrity of the barrier function of the esophageal mucosa to protect it from various exogenous intraluminal substances with detergent properties. Acid-peptic attack in patients with GERD leads to alteration of the expression of some tight junction proteins in epithelial cells of the esophageal mucosa. The latter leads to increased mucosal permeability, which facilitates the penetration of hydrogen ions and other substances into the submucosal layer, where they stimulate the terminals of nerve fibers playing a role in the induction and persistence of the symptoms of the disease. The above evidence brought up to date the effectiveness study of the cytoprotective drugs with tropism to the gastrointestinal tract, as part of the combination therapy of GERD.
