Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a harmful bacterium that is difficult to conveniently diagnose and effectively eradicate. Chronic H. pylori infection increases the risk of gastrointestinal diseases, even cancers. Despite the known findings, more underlying mechanisms are to be deeply explored to facilitate the development of novel prevention and treatment strategies of H. pylori infection. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are RNAs with more than 200 nucleotides. They may be implicated in cell proliferation, inflammation and many other signaling pathways of gastrointestinal cancer progression. The dynamic expression of lncRNAs indicates their potential to be diagnostic or prognostic biomarkers. In this paper, we comprehensively summarize the processes of H. pylori infection and the treatment methods, review the known findings of lncRNA classification and functional mechanisms, elucidate the roles of lncRNAs in H. pylori-related gastrointestinal cancer, and discuss the clinical perspectives of lncRNAs.

Antimicrobial Resistance of Helicobacter pylori Isolated From Latin American Children and Adolescents (2008-2023): A Systematic Review. Helicobacter 2024; 29:e13101. [PMID: 38987862 DOI: 10.1111/hel.13101] [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: 03/20/2024] [Revised: 05/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 07/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Latin America has a high prevalence of Helicobacter pylori in children that may lead to peptic ulcer disease and eventually gastric cancer in adulthood. Successful eradication is hindered by rising antimicrobial resistance. We summarize H. pylori resistance rates in Latin American children from 2008 to 2023. MATERIAL AND METHODS Systematic review following PRISMA guidelines and National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute checklist to assess risk of bias (PROSPERO CRD42024517108) that included original cross-sectional observational studies reporting resistance to commonly used antibiotics in Latin American children and adolescents. We searched in PubMed, LILACS, and SciELO databases. RESULTS Of 51 studies, 45 were excluded. The quality of the six analyzed studies (297 H. pylori-positive samples) was satisfactory. Phenotypic methods (N = 3) reported higher resistance rates than genotypic studies (N = 3). Clarithromycin resistance ranged from 8.0% to 26.7% (6 studies; 297 samples), metronidazole from 1.9% to 40.2% (4 studies; 211 samples), amoxicillin from 0% to 10.4% (3 studies; 158 samples), tetracycline resistance was not detected (3 studies; 158 samples), and levofloxacin resistance was 2.8% (1 study; 36 samples). CONCLUSION Scarce Latin American studies on H. pylori resistance, along with methodological heterogeneity, hinder conclusive findings. Clarithromycin and metronidazole (first-line drugs) resistance is worrisome, likely impacting lower eradication rates. Urgent systematic surveillance or individual testing before treatment is necessary to enhance eradication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Refractory Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection inevitably increase the difficulty of drug selection. Here, we described our experience with the use of a novel tetravalent IgY against H. pylori for the treatment of patients with refractory H. pylori infection. METHODS Patients were randomly assigned to receive the standard quadruple therapy (amoxicillin, clarithromycin, omeprazole and bismuth potassium citrate ) for 2 weeks or 250 mg of avian polyclonal IgY orally twice a day for 4 weeks. The binding efficacy of IgY to H. pylori antigens was detected by western blotting13. C-urea breath test was performed to evaluate the eradication therap's efficacy. The side effects of IgY were evaluated via various routine tests. The questionnaire was used to gather clinical symptoms and adverse reactions. RESULTS Western blot analysis showed that tetravalent IgY simultaneously bind to VacA, HpaA, CagA and UreB of H. pylori. Tetravalent IgY had an eradication rate of 50.74% in patients with refractory H. pylori and an inhibition rate of 50.04% against DOB (delta over baseline) of 13C-urea. The symptom relief rate was 61.76% in thirty-four patients with clinical symptoms, and no adverse reactions were observed during tetravalent IgY treatment period. CONCLUSIONS Polyclonal avian tetravalent IgY reduced H. pylori infection, and showed good efficacy and safety in the treatment of refractory H. pylori infection patients, which represented an effective therapeutic option of choice for patients with refractory H. pylori infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Management of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection requires co-treatment with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and the use of antibiotics to achieve successful eradication. AIM To evaluate the role of dosage of PPIs and the duration of therapy in the effectiveness of H. pylori eradication treatments based on the 'European Registry on Helicobacter pylori management' (Hp-EuReg). METHODS Hp-EuReg is a multicentre, prospective, non-interventionist, international registry on the routine clinical practice of H. pylori management by European gastroenterologists. All infected adult patients were systematically registered from 2013 to 2022. RESULTS Overall, 36,579 patients from five countries with more than 1000 patients were analysed. Optimal (≥90%) first-line-modified intention-to-treat effectiveness was achieved with the following treatments: (1) 14-day therapies with clarithromycin-amoxicillin-bismuth and metronidazole-tetracycline-bismuth, both independently of the PPI dose prescribed; (2) All 10-day (except 10-day standard triple therapy) and 14-day therapies with high-dose PPIs; and (3) 10-day quadruple therapies with clarithromycin-amoxicillin-bismuth, metronidazole-tetracycline-bismuth, and clarithromycin-amoxicillin-metronidazole (sequential), all with standard-dose PPIs. In first-line treatment, optimal effectiveness was obtained with high-dose PPIs in all 14-day treatments, in 10- and 14-day bismuth quadruple therapies and in 10-day sequential with standard-dose PPIs. Optimal second-line effectiveness was achieved with (1) metronidazole-tetracycline-bismuth quadruple therapy for 14- and 10 days with standard and high-dose PPIs, respectively; and (2) levofloxacin-amoxicillin triple therapy for 14 days with high-dose PPIs. None of the 7-day therapies in both treatment lines achieved optimal effectiveness. CONCLUSIONS We recommend, in first-line treatment, the use of high-dose PPIs in 14-day triple therapy and in 10-or 14-day quadruple concomitant therapy in first-line treatment, while standard-dose PPIs would be sufficient in 10-day bismuth quadruple therapies. On the other hand, in second-line treatment, high-dose PPIs would be more beneficial in 14-day triple therapy with levofloxacin and amoxicillin or in 10-day bismuth quadruple therapy either as a three-in-one single capsule or in the traditional scheme.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori antibiotic resistance has undergone vast changes in the last two decades. No systematic review has been done on the prevalence of antibiotic resistant H. pylori in India in the last two decades. We evaluated the pattern of resistance rates across various regions of India. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic review of the geographical variations in antibiotic resistance pattern of H. pylori was conducted using PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, Science Direct, etc. for articles published between January 1, 2000 and May 30, 2023. Random effects-model-based Cochran's Q test, I2 statistics, and chi-squared tests were used to measure heterogeneity. RESULTS The overall resistance was highest against metronidazole (77.65%) followed by amoxicillin (37.78%), levofloxacin (32.8%), clarithromycin (35.64%), furazolidone (12.03%), and tetracycline (11.63%). 14.7% of the H. pylori isolates were multi-drug resistant. Under meta-analysis of each antibiotic, high heterogeneity levels were observed having I2 ranges from 86.53% to 97.70% at p < 0.0001. In sub-group analysis, Metronidazole has a stable rate of resistance as compared to other antibiotics. Other antibiotics have had a downtrend in the last 5 years except for levofloxacin, which has had an uptrend in the resistance rate for the past 5 years. Hence, one should avoid using metronidazole for any kind of first-line treatment. CONCLUSIONS Metronidazole resistance is high in most regions of India except Assam and Mumbai while clarithromycin is found to be ineffective in South India, Gujarat, and Kashmir. As compared to other antibiotics, resistance to amoxicillin is generally low except in certain regions (Hyderabad, Chennai, and the Gangetic belt of North India). Tetracycline and Furazolidone have the least resistance rates and should be part of anti- H. pylori regimens. The resurgence of high single and multidrug resistance to the commonly used drugs suggests the need for newer antibiotics and regular resistance surveillance studies.

Molecular Characterization and Mutational Analysis of Clarithromycin- and Levofloxacin-Resistance Genes in Helicobacter pylori from Gastric Biopsies in Southern Croatia. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:14560. [PMID: 37834008 PMCID: PMC10572715 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241914560] [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: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 09/17/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Point mutations in the 23S rRNA, gyrA, and gyrB genes can confer resistance to clarithromycin (CAM) and levofloxacin (LVX) by altering target sites or protein structure, thereby reducing the efficacy of standard antibiotics in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infections. Considering the confirmed primary CAM and LVX resistance in H. pylori infected patients from southern Croatia, we performed a molecular genetic analysis of three target genes (23S rRNA, gyrA, and gyrB) by PCR and sequencing, together with computational molecular docking analysis. In the CAM-resistant isolates, the mutation sites in the 23S rRNA gene were A2142C, A2142G, and A2143G. In addition, the mutations D91G and D91N in GyrA and N481E and R484K in GyrB were associated with resistance to LVX. Molecular docking analyses revealed that mutant H. pylori strains with resistance-related mutations exhibited a lower susceptibility to CAM and LVX compared with wild-type strains due to significant differences in non-covalent interactions (e.g., hydrogen bonds, ionic interactions) leading to destabilized antibiotic-protein binding, ultimately resulting in antibiotic resistance. Dual resistance to CAM and LVX was found, indicating the successful evolution of H. pylori resistance to unrelated antimicrobials and thus an increased risk to human health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM There is regional variation in the eradication rates of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) regimens depending on the local antibiotic resistance patterns. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacies of triple, quadruple and sequential antibiotic therapy in eradicating H. pylori infection. METHODS A total of 296 H. pylori-positive patients were randomized to receive one of the three regimens (triple, quadruple or sequential antibiotic therapy) and eradication rate was assessed by H. pylori stool antigen test. RESULTS The eradication rates of standard triple therapy, sequential therapy and quadruple therapy were 93%, 92.9% and 96.4%, respectively (p = 0.57). CONCLUSION Fourteen days of standard triple therapy, 14 days of bismuth-based quadruple therapy and 10 days of sequential therapy are equally efficacious in eradicating H. pylori and all regimens have optimum H. pylori eradication rates.

[PMID: 36977173 PMCID: PMC10051479 DOI: 10.3390/tropicalmed8030172] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2023] [Revised: 02/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/24/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: In South Asia, resistance to commonly used antibiotics for the treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection is increasing. Despite this, accurate estimates of overall antibiotic resistance are missing. Thus, this review aims to analyze the resistance rates of commonly used antibiotics for the treatment of H. pylori in South Asia. Methods: The systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis statement. We searched five medical databases for relevant studies from inception to September 2022. A random effect model with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to calculate the pooled prevalence of antibiotic resistance. Results: This systematic review and meta-analysis included 23 articles, 6357 patients, 3294 Helicobacter pylori isolates, and 2192 samples for antibiotic resistance. The prevalences of antibiotic resistance to common antibiotics were clarithromycin: 27% (95%CI: 0.17–0.38), metronidazole: 69% (95%CI: 0.62–0.76), tetracycline: 16% (95%CI: 0.06–0.25), amoxicillin: 23% (95%CI: 0.15–0.30), ciprofloxacin: 12% (95%CI: 0.04–0.23), levofloxacin: 34% (95%CI: 0.22–0.47), and furazolidone: 14% (95%CI: 0.06–0.22). Subgroup analysis showed antibiotic resistances were more prevalent in Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh. Furthermore, a ten-year trend analysis showed the increasing resistance prevalence for clarithromycin (21% to 30%), ciprofloxacin (3% to 16%), and tetracycline (5% to 20%) from 2003 to 2022. Conclusion: This meta-analysis showed a high prevalence of resistance among the commonly used antibiotics for H. pylori in South Asian countries. Furthermore, antibiotic resistance has been increasing over the time of 20 years. In order to tackle this situation, a robust surveillance system, and strict adherence to antibiotic stewardship are required.

Mutations Related to Antibiotics Resistance in Helicobacter pylori Clinical Isolates from Bangladesh. Antibiotics (Basel) 2023; 12:antibiotics12020279. [PMID: 36830189 PMCID: PMC9952455 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics12020279] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2023] [Accepted: 01/25/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Current management of gastric inflammation involves the eradication of Helicobacter pylori. However, the effectiveness of commonly used antibiotics against H. pylori infection has decreased due to antibiotic resistance. Phenotypic-based diagnostics are laborious and finding the cause of resistance can be difficult. Therefore, early detection and understanding of the underlying mechanism of this resistance are necessary. This study evaluated the mutations in the genes related to the Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) of the clinical isolates from Bangladeshi subjects. Whole-genome sequencing was performed on 56 isolates and the genes (such as pbp1a, rdxA, ribF, fur, gyrA, gyrB, 23S rRNA, and infB) were extracted. The reads were assembled, and the SNPs were extracted by the latest pipeline for antibiotic mutation analysis, ARIBA. The mutations and the association with the antibiotic phenotypes were evaluated using Fisher's exact test. In this study, the clarithromycin resistance rate was high, 39.3% (22/56), with the median MIC 24 mg/L ranging from 2 to 128 mg/L. The mutation of A2147G was significantly associated with resistance (p = 0.000018) but not in locus A2146G (p = 0.056). Levofloxacin also posed a high resistance. We observed that the mutation of D91N (but not D91Y) (p = 0.002) and N87K (p = 0.002) of gyrA was associated with levofloxacin resistance. Mutations in locus A343V (p = 0.041) of gyrB also showed a significant association. Meanwhile, in the pbp1a gene, several mutations might explain the resistance; they were G594fs (p = 0.036), K306R (p = 0.036), N562Y (p = 0.0006), and V45I (p = 0.018). The prevalence of metronidazole was exceptionally high (96.4%), and numerous mutations occurred in rdxA genes, including the truncation of genes. These results imply that the mutation in genes encoding the target protein of antibiotics remains the critical resistance mechanism in H. pylori.

Helicobacter 2022; 27:e12920. [PMID: 35939548 DOI: 10.1111/hel.12920] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Revised: 07/06/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/09/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Resistance of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) to antibiotics is an evolving and dynamic process. Presence of antibiotic resistance impacts the success rate of initial eradication strategies in the clinic. AIM To improve the success rate of initial eradication therapy and explore new antibiotic regimens, a large sample-based study utilizing antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed. A total of 2508 H. pylori strains from patients subjected to initial eradication therapy were isolated, cultured, and tested for drug susceptibility from 2017 to 2021. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was recorded. H. pylori susceptibility profiles and its change trends from initial eradication patients were analyzed. The relationships between drug resistance, year of sample collection, age, and sex of patients were analyzed. RESULTS The overall resistance rates were as follows: amoxicillin (9.25%), clarithromycin (38.48%), levofloxacin (42.86%), furazolidone (11.28%), doxycycline (8.56%), rifampicin (10.81%), tinidazole (74.32%), gatifloxacin (61.71%), tetracycline (0%), metronidazole (78.71%), ornidazole (97.87%), and fosfomycin (31.67%). Only 38.04% of the strains were pansusceptible to amoxicillin, clarithromycin, levofloxacin, and furazolidone, followed by those of mono resistance (29.90%), double resistance (24.96%), triple resistance (6.34%), and quadruple resistance (0.76%). Significant differences in the resistance rate and MIC were also observed in different age and sex groups. Time of collection and patient age and sex were associated with the distribution of antibiotic resistance. CONCLUSION With the increasing resistance rate and multiple resistance of H. pylori to commonly used antibiotics, drug susceptibility testing is imperative to permit individualized therapy, and a regimen containing the combination of amoxicillin, furazolidone, tetracycline, doxycycline, or rifampicin is reasonable for initial empirical eradication therapy.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylorus (H. pylori) is a deadly bacterium responsible for significant worldwide Gastric Cancer (GC) related mortality. The present study aimed to screen all the anti-microbial drugs used to eradicate H .pylori infection and to identify the most efficient drug by using computational methods through molecular docking analysis. The 3-D structure of protein chorismate synthase of H. pylori was downloaded from the Protein data bank (PDB) online browser. The x-ray crystallography structures of 13 common drugs used against H.pylori infection were also downloaded from the drug bank. We screened all 13 common drugs through molecular docking to know the most efficient binding interaction between the diverse ligand-protein complexes. The results were further compared with clinical survey data from the patients with diverse gastrointestinal H. pylori infected cases. Among the screened compounds, by in-silico approach we found that fluoroquinolone (FLRQ) and tetracycline (TET) manifested more significant interactions with chorismate synthase (CS) protein along with binding energies of -9.2 and -8.1 kcal/mole respectively. Further, the drugs were also corroborated with the survey data from patients with varied gastrointestinal disorders in our study. With this computational study, we could find FLRQ and TET may be the most efficient drug for H. pylori treatment, which can be tried in case of anti H. Pylori treatment failure due to resistance. Hence, effective inter-analysis between the experimental and computational approaches is crucial to build up a strong inhibitor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is implicated in the pathogenesis of functional dyspepsia (FD). There is conflicting data regarding the benefit of H. pylori eradication for symptom relief in FD. AIMS To study the benefit of eradicating H. pylori in patients with FD as compared to standard medical treatment (SMT). Secondary aims were to find efficacy of H. pylori eradication therapy, recurrence of H. pylori after eradication, and predictors of efficacy. METHODS Consecutive adult patients of FD (ROME IV) with H. pylori infection presenting in the outpatient department of our hospital were enrolled. Patients with Global Overall Symptom (GOS) scale > 2 and H. pylori infection were included. Patients were randomized into two groups: group 1 received H. pylori eradication therapy and group 2 received SMT. Treatment success was defined as symptom relief (GOS score < 2 and reduction by at least 2 points at 6 months) and H. pylori eradication was defined as stool antigen negative at 4 weeks. RESULTS Of 329 participants with FD, 253 were H. pylori positive (rapid urease test and stool antigen test) (76.89%). After exclusions, 202 were randomized into two groups of 101 each. Thirty-two patients in group 1 and 31 in group 2 had treatment success (31.7% vs. 30.7%, p=1.000). The efficacy of H. pylori eradication therapy was 74.46% (70/94). H. pylori reinfection rate was 26.02% (19/73). CONCLUSIONS H. pylori eradication therapy does not provide additional benefit in symptom relief in patients with FD as compared with SMT. TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT04697641 (retrospectively registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov in January 2021).

Abstract
The Indian Society of Gastroenterology (ISG) felt the need to organize a consensus on Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and to update the current management of H. pylori infection; hence, ISG constituted the ISG's Task Force on Helicobacter pylori. The Task Force on H. pylori undertook an exercise to produce consensus statements on H. pylori infection. Twenty-five experts from different parts of India, including gastroenterologists, pathologists, surgeons, epidemiologists, pediatricians, and microbiologists participated in the meeting. The participants were allocated to one of following sections for the meeting: Epidemiology of H. pylori infection in India and H. pylori associated conditions; diagnosis; treatment and retreatment; H. pylori and gastric cancer, and H. pylori prevention/public health. Each group reviewed all published literature on H. pylori infection with special reference to the Indian scenario and prepared appropriate statements on different aspects for voting and consensus development. This consensus, which was produced through a modified Delphi process including two rounds of face-to-face meetings, reflects our current understanding and recommendations for the diagnosis and management of H. pylori infection. These consensus should serve as a reference for not only guiding treatment of H. pylori infection but also to guide future research on the subject.

Prevalence of Infection and Antibiotic Susceptibility of Helicobacter pylori: An Evaluation in Public and Private Health Systems of Southern Chile. Pathogens 2019; 8:pathogens8040226. [PMID: 31717523 PMCID: PMC6963584 DOI: 10.3390/pathogens8040226] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2019] [Revised: 10/31/2019] [Accepted: 11/02/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Helicobacter pylori colonizes half of the human population. Age, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status are factors that influence the prevalence of the infection. This is important in southern Chile, one of the most unequal regions in the world, where a significant difference in the health access of the population occurs due to the existence of two competing health systems. Moreover, in the last few years, current protocols of H. pylori eradication have shown high rates of resistance with reduced therapeutic efficacy. This study reported the epidemiology of infection and attempted to identify divergent points among the population beneficiaries of the two health care schemes in southern Chile. Biopsies from public (n = 143) and private (n = 86) health systems were studied. At the same time, clinical and sociodemographic factors were evaluated. H. pylori strains were obtained from gastric biopsies for culture and molecular testing. Antibiotic susceptibility was determined by the agar dilution method. Differences about ethnicity, rural residence, and education (p ≤ 0.05) were observed between beneficiaries of the two health systems. The prevalence of H. pylori was 45%, with no significant differences regardless of the socioeconomic conditions. The only identified risk factor associated with H. pylori infection was Mapuche ethnicity (OR (odds ratio) = 2.30). H. pylori showed high resistance rates, particularly against clarithromycin (40%), levofloxacin (43.1%), and metronidazole (81.8%). This study highlighted the importance of Mapuche ancestry as a risk factor in southern Chile and emphasized the need to search for new eradication strategies as well as further studies evaluating therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a gram-negative bacterium that infects approximately 4.4 billion individuals worldwide. However, its prevalence varies among different geographic areas, and is influenced by several factors. The infection can be acquired by means of oral-oral or fecal-oral transmission, and the pathogen possesses various mechanisms that improve its capacity of mobility, adherence and manipulation of the gastric microenvironment, making possible the colonization of an organ with a highly acidic lumen. In addition, H. pylori presents a large variety of virulence factors that improve its pathogenicity, of which we highlight cytotoxin associated antigen A, vacuolating cytotoxin, duodenal ulcer promoting gene A protein, outer inflammatory protein and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase. The host immune system, mainly by means of a Th1-polarized response, also plays a crucial role in the infection course. Although most H. pylori-positive individuals remain asymptomatic, the infection predisposes the development of various clinical conditions as peptic ulcers, gastric adenocarcinomas and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas. Invasive and non-invasive diagnostic methods, each of them with their related advantages and limitations, have been applied in H. pylori detection. Moreover, bacterial resistance to antimicrobial therapy is a major challenge in the treatment of this infection, and new therapy alternatives are being tested to improve H. pylori eradication. Last but not least, the development of effective vaccines against H. pylori infection have been the aim of several research studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To document the factors, and their pathways, that influence healthcare and antibiotics use following reported gastrointestinal illnesses in Anhui province, China. STUDY DESIGN This study uses cross-sectional design, descriptive statistical analysis, pathway mapping and multivariate logistic regression modelling. SETTING Households in 12 villages in Anhui province, China. PARTICIPANTS A total of 3659 residents who: (1) held a registered rural residence and were actually living in the sampled villages when this study was conducted; (2) were aged 18 years and older and (3) were willing to participate and able to answer the survey questions. OUTCOME MEASURES Planned and measured variables included the occurrence of gastrointestinal illness, professional care seeking and antibiotic use due to the illness and factors influencing these measures. RESULTS Of the 3659 informants, 29.0% reported gastrointestinal illness episodes in the past year. Of these episodes, 50.2% led to professional care seeking and 65.4% of antibiotic use. Multivariate logistic modelling identifies that: (1) reported gastrointestinal illnesses were more frequent in north compared with middle (OR 0.569, 95% CI 0.472 to 0.686) and south (OR 0.588, 95% CI 0.492 to 0.702) Anhui, and were positively associated with age (B=0.123, p<0.05), knowledge concerning (B=0.248, p<0.05) and practice of (B=0.184, p<0.05) prevention; (2) seeking professional care and antibiotic use following the illness was linked to the severity of symptoms and geographical locations, rather than to specific pathogenic features. CONCLUSIONS Reported gastrointestinal illnesses are quite prevalent in the sample population and a large proportion of these have resulted in professional care and antibiotics use. The factors associated with the reported illnesses and pathways of healthcare and antibiotic use, as identified in this study, should inform future research and intervention efforts.

High primary resistance to metronidazole and levofloxacin, and a moderate resistance to clarithromycin in Helicobacter pylori isolated from Karnataka patients. Gut Pathog 2019; 11:21. [PMID: 31110563 PMCID: PMC6513510 DOI: 10.1186/s13099-019-0305-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2019] [Accepted: 05/02/2019] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Due to increased prevalence of H. pylori antimicrobial resistance worldwide and more importantly the resistance patterns vary between different geographical regions, it is important to survey local H. pylori antibiotic resistance profile to provide physicians with more informed drug choices to better treat H. pylori infection. To our knowledge, this is the first study to examine the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance of H. pylori in Karnataka state of South India. Results A total of 113 H. pylori strains were isolated from gastric biopsies and tested: 81.4% were resistant to metronidazole, 54.9% were resistant to levofloxacin, 20.4% were resistant to clarithromycin, 5.3% were resistant to tetracycline and 7.1% were resistant to amoxicillin. Multidrug resistance was detected in 59.3% of total isolated strains, among which 86.6% were resistant to at least both metronidazole and levofloxacin. In this study, 38 out of 113 H. pylori strains had been whole-genome sequenced. Based on the draft genomes, RdxA and/or FrxA inactivation mutations were found to present in 75% of metronidazole-resistant strains. Clarithromycin-resistant strains had mainly A2143G and G2224A mutations in the 23 rRNA gene. While 87.1% levofloxacin-resistant strains had amino acid substitution mutations occurring predominantly at N87 and D91 in GyrA, novel mutations in the same protein including an insertion of five amino acid residues (QDNSV), immediately after the start codon, and a substitution mutation at R295 were identified. Conclusion High primary resistance to metronidazole and levofloxacin, and a modest occurrence of clarithromycin resistance were revealed in H. pylori strains isolated from Karnataka patients. Therefore metronidazole-, levofloxacin- and clarithromycin-based triple therapies are not suitable as first-line treatment in Karnataka. Both amoxicillin and tetracycline can still be used to eradicate H. pylori infection in this region. We also revealed novel mutations in GyrA protein that possibly contribute to H. pylori resistance in levofloxacin, which merit further investigations.
