“…Pylori is known to colonize more than half of the world's population, but it prevalence varies depending on different contributing factors: socioeconomic status, living standards, ethnicity and geographical location [7]. The present study showed that the prevalence of H. Pylori infection is 67%, similar result was observed in other Moroccan studies [8][9][10], and in other developing countries like Saudi Arabia 65.9, and India 63.5. But it's too quite low compared to neighboring countries like Tunisia (72%) [11], Mauritania (76.4%) [12], Algeria (78%) [13].this number has been declining in developed and industrialized countries of the western world.…”

Helicobacter pylori (H. Pylori) is the best example of the implication of chronical infection in carcinogenesis. The World Health Organization recognized it as a class I carcinogen since it triggers the progression of premalignant gastric lesions. The aim of this study is to define the prevalence of H. Pylori infection, related risk factors, and explore the histological features of the chronic gastritis. This is a retrospective study of 248 gastric specimens, examinated and evaluated according Sydney to system. The prevalence of H. Pylori is 67 %, chronic gastritis is observed in all the biopsies (100%). Age and gender were not a risk factors for the H. Pylori infection. Prevalence of H. Pylori was 71.93% in low socio-economic class. The severity of the chronic gastritis increases if the colonization of H. Pylori increases. In 74, 58% of cases chronic gastritis was active. Glandular atrophy presented 10.37% and in 80% was related to H. Pylori infection (p=0,004) and 12 % related to autoimmune diseases. The prevalence of Intestinal metaplasia is 10.53%, and H. Pylori was observed in 42.31% of cases (p=0.001). The dysplasia is detected in one case, in a 72 years old patient. We also observed one case of gastric adenocarcinoma, of an 80 years. Follicular gastritis are in 32% of cases, and they were more frequent in H. Pylori infected slides (82% of subjects) (p< 0.005).According to this study, H. Pylori Chronic Gastritis is very common in our population, and a coherent relationship exists between H. Pylori colonization and pre-cancerous lesions. An early eradicating should be considered as a health goal.

“…Hence low socio-economic status families with low income had a higher likelihood of carrying H. Pylori infection. More than few Moroccan and international studies confirmed this fact [10,16,24,25]. CG has been histologically confirmed in all the specimens (100%), which is a very high value.…”

“…Regions in West Africa, including Nigeria, Ghana, Togo, and the Republic of Benin, have reported prevalence of 87.8%, 88%, 70.41%, and 71.5%, respectively [26][27][28][29]. Prevalence as high as 71.43% has been reported in Algeria, 63.8% in Morocco, and 64.6% in Egypt, all located in the northern part of Africa [30][31][32]. Diet, level of literacy, and age among other factors have been highlighted as influencing variations in prevalence from one region to another [12].…”

Background: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is the most prevalent type of bacterial infection. Current guidelines from different regions of the world neglect specific African conditions and requirements. The African Helicobacter and Microbiota Study Group (AHMSG), founded in 2022, aimed to create an Africa-specific consensus report reflecting Africa-specific issues. Summary: Eighteen experts from nine African countries and two European delegates supported by nine African collaborators from eight other countries prepared statements on the most important African issues in four working groups: (1) epidemiology, (2) diagnosis, (3) indications and prevention, and (4) treatment. Limited resources, restricted access to medical systems, and underdeveloped diagnostic facilities differ from those of other regions. The results of the individual working groups were presented for the final consensus voting, which included all board members. Key Messages: There is a need for further studies on H. pylori prevalence in Africa, with diagnosis hinged on specific African situation. Treatment of H. pylori in the African setting should be based on accessibility and reimbursement, while indication and prevention should be defined in specific African countries.

“…Across various African nations, a range of H. pylori prevalence rates has been reported, highlighting the heterogeneity of the infection's distribution. Rates include 70.8% in Burundi (19), 75% in Rwanda in 2014, with 20.1% of cases presenting with ulcers, 10% with gastric obstruction, and 4.5% with malignancy (19), 70.41% and 93.1% in 2015, respectively, in Togo (20) and Congo Brazzaville (22), 63.8% in Morocco (23), 88% in Ghana (24), and 66.12% in Egypt in 2019 (25). Notably, Egypt reported a prevalence of 64.6% among children with risk factors such as overcrowding, patronizing food vendors, and limited literacy (26).…”

Background Helicobacter pylori infection is a global health concern, contributing to gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, and gastric cancer. However, knowledge about H. pylori epidemiology in Somalia is limited. This scoping review aims to synthesize evidence on H. pylori prevalence in Somalia and associated factors. Methods We systematically retrieved six scholarly investigations on H. pylori prevalence in Somalia published until 2023 from academic databases. We extracted data on prevalence, demographics, and covariate factors. Results H. pylori infection varied (32.4–56.5%) across studies, with higher rates in adults and outpatient settings. Temporal variability was observed. Gastritis symptoms and female gender showed an association with H. pylori infection, while age, family history, diet, lifestyle, and comorbidities had inconclusive associations. Conclusions Somalia faces a substantial H. pylori burden, reaching 56.5% in symptomatic adults seeking outpatient care. Temporal prevalence fluctuations require further investigation. These findings inform research and clinical management. Population-based studies are essential to establish a national prevalence profile. This research addresses a critical knowledge gap in Somalia's H. pylori epidemiology, guiding public health strategies. Journals in gastroenterology, infectious diseases, and public health may consider this for publication.
