Markers for gastric cancer premalignant lesions: where do we go?
2012
Only a small proportion of patients infected with <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> develop gastric cancer during their lifetime. At the same time, this type of cancer remains an important cause of mortality globally. The current interventional strategies have not been successful in decreasing the global burden of the disease; therefore, biomarkers for the identification of the individuals at high risk as well as those in the early stage of the disease is of high importance. In addition, predicting the point of no return for the development of the malignancy is of particular interest; whether atrophy, intestinal or spasmolytic polypeptide-expressing metaplasia, or some of their subtype…

Should We Screen for <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> to Prevent Gastric Cancer?
2007
Although the strategy for <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> infection management is well defined and quite well followed in a number of situations, including peptic ulcer disease, the issue of <i>H. pylori</i> screening and eradication in the general population still remains. The following debate attempts to find the answer of whether or not <i>H. pylori</i> screening should be performed in the asymptomatic population for preventing gastric cancer. As yet, there is no final evidence-based consensus about the need to screen for <i>H. pylori</i> in order to decrease the incidence of gastric cancer.

Helicobacter pylori in the dental plaque : is it of diagnostic value for gastric infection?
2006
Aim: The aim of the present study was the assessment of association of helicobacter pylori of dental plaque and stomach in a more homogenous population and also to determine the diagnostic value of dental plaque for gastric infection. Materials and Methods: Based on the results of Rapid urease test (RUT) on specimens from gastric antrum, 88 patients with symptoms of dyspepsia were assigned into two groups of infected and non-infected with helicobacter pylori. Supragingival plaque samples were collected from mandibular first and second molar area using and sterile curette and were investigated using RUT. Statistical analysis of data was performed using chi-square test and independent t-test.…
