“…Our results suggest a strong correlation between smoking status and peptic ulcer frequency as previously shown by other authors (Chen et al 1999;Konturek et al 2003;Moshkowitz et al 2000;Regula et al 2003).…”

“…Today, it is assumed that H. pylori infection can result in chronic gastritis as well as in peptic ulcer, which may enhance the risk of gastric carcinoma or MALT lymphoma (Bruce and Maaroos 2008;Fennerty 2005;Johns et al 2005;Kist et al 2005;Marshall 2003;Regula et al 2003;Rothenbacher et al 1998;Schwarz et al 2008;Webb et al 1984). Most common risk factors for ulcus diseases are male gender, smoking and stress, while the significance of antral H. pylori density is discussed controversially (Chen et al 1999;Jones 2006;Konturek et al 2003;Levenstein 2002;Moshkowitz et al 2000;Regula et al 2003).…”

“…The higher rates of infection with H. pylori in this immigrant population may be the most important contributing factor to the increase in the overall prevalence rate. It has been reported that immigration, travel, and even using chopsticks (using unclean chopsticks, using chopsticks to serve food from shared dishes and sharing chopsticks) may be the independent factors influencing H. pylori infection by increasing the chance of person‐to‐person transmission 16,17 . Whether H. pylori transmission between immigrants and Shanghai natives has occurred is not yet known.…”

BACKGROUND: The incidence of diseases related to Helicobacter pylori infection, such as gastric cancer, has been decreasing in developed countries and areas where the economy is rapidly developing. This is also the situation in Shanghai, the largest city in China. However, the prevalent trend of Helicobacter pylori infection in Shanghai is unknown. OBJECTIVE: To investigate changes in the sero‐prevalence rate of Helicobacter pylori infection in Shanghai residents between 1990 and 2001. METHODS: We tested serum H. pylori immunoglobulin G antibodies in 1557 blood samples from healthy residents of the Shanghai urban area in 2001 using the ELISA method. The sero‐prevalence rate of H. pylori infection in 2001 was compared with that in 1990. RESULTS: In the Shanghai urban area the overall sero‐prevalence rate of H. pylori infection in 2001 was 58.3%, higher than that in 1990 (40.5%, P = 0.001). No significant differences in sero‐prevalence rates were found in subjects aged 1−9, 10−19 and 20−29 years between 1990 and 2001 (19.8, 42.7, 52.4 vs 27.4, 39.6, and 41.4; P = 0.683, 0.707 and 0.068, respectively). In subjects older than 30 years, a significantly higher prevalence rate of H. pylori infection was observed in 2001 than in 1990 (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The prevalence of H. pylori infection in urban Shanghai residents in 2001 was greater than that found in 1990.

“…Recent reports show that cigarette smoking persists as a contributing factor to complications of peptic ulcerations [24][25][26][27][28]. In the elderly patients, such smoking-related ulcers often give rise to complications of bleeding [29][30][31] and perforation [32], necessitating urgent surgical intervention [33] and incurring significant morbidity and costs in management. Not surprisingly, all of the patients described in one report alerting the readers to the lethal nature of ischemic gastropathy were smokers [34].…”

This paper reviews recent clinical evidence that suggests that aspirin prophylaxis against cardiac and cerebral vascular ischemia is associated with significant gastrointestinal complications. The clinical and experimental evidence to confirm the role of risk factors of concomitant use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), tobacco cigarette smoking, and alcohol consumption are discussed. The limitations of long-term acid suppression treatment for the prevention of these complications are considered. Future experimental studies to guide the clinical approach to develop novel and potentially cost-effective management strategies are discussed.
