Review: Clinical Management of Helicobacter pylori Infection in China

Abstract: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has been associated with gastric disorders. The situation of H. pylori infection in China-where a high prevalence of H. pylori infection, a high incidence of gastric cancer, and widespread resistance to clarithromycin, metronidazole, and levofloxacin exist-is quite different from that in Western countries. In order for Chinese clinicians to better manage H. pylori infection, a Chinese Study Group on H. pylori published four consensus reports regarding the management of… Show more

“…Here, our result is consistent with the current opinion that 7-day standard triple therapy is obsolete mainly due to clarithromycin resistance. 29,33,34 Since pretreatment susceptibility tests would help overcome antibiotic resistance, tailored therapy is superior to standard triple therapy in eradication rate. However, the advantage of tailored therapy is undermined when the duration of triple therapy is prolonged to 10 days.…”

“…Another survey of H. pylori infection in 51 025 people from 24 districts in China between 2005 and 2011 showed an overall infection rate of 49.5%; even in people younger than 20 years old, the infection rate is still as high as 37.1% . Although China has seen many improvements in the past 30 years in the detection and treatment of H. pylori , it is still an area with relatively high infection rates, especially in young people, as compared with other developed countries …”

“…The causes for this decline may involve patient compliance, bacterial factors, obesity, smoking, reinfection, and genetic polymorphisms in CYP2C19. However, antibiotic resistance may be the primary reason for reduced eradication of H. pylori infection worldwide [20][21][22] . In addition, the eradication rates differ by region, even in the same country.…”
