Background: Helicobacter pylori have an important role in the pathogenesis of peptic ulcer disease. The aim of the present study was to observe the prevalence of H. pylori in peptic ulcer perforation cases and the rationale of H. pylori eradication therapy post operatively and to investigate factors associated with peptic ulcer. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Upgraded Department of Surgery, Darbhanga Medical College & Hospital, Laheriasarai, Bihar. A total of 113 patients were participated in the study after meeting inclusion criteria. After getting written consent from the patients with perforated peptic ulcer, resuscitation and laparotomy was performed in the emergency department. H. pylori infection was conrmed by histopathological examination by Giemsa staining. Based on the histopathological report, the prevalence of H. pylori infection in the patients was assessed and was given appropriate H. pylori eradication regimen. Results: The mean age of presentation of the patients was 52.81±14.5 years. Male to female ratio was 4.14:1. Out of 113 cases, 67 cases (59.3%) had duodenal ulcer perforation while 46 cases (40.7%) had gastric ulcer perforation. Of them 53(46.9%) cases were positive H. pylori positive. No signicant association was found between the incidence of H. pylori infection in peptic ulcers with smoking, hypertension, diet intake, NSAIDS intake. In our study association between H. pylori and diabetes mellitus (p=0.02) found to be signicant which can be further investigated. Conclusion: According to our study the prevalence of H. pylori infection in perforated peptic ulcer disease is 47% which must be considered as signicant. Hence all the patients undergoing laparotomy for peptic ulcer perforation should be investigated for H. pylori infection and if positive we must start the anti H. pylori regimen for them, which is more cost effective.

Background: Helicobacter pylori is found in more than 90% cases of peptic ulcer. This study examines the possibility of association of Helicobacter pylori in perforated peptic ulcer disease and its relation to persisting ulcer as well as the influence of other risk factors; namely: smoking, alcohol, current non-steroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and steroid use. Materials and Methods: In this prospective study, total of 50 cases of peptic ulcer perforation admitted in College of Medical Sciences and Teaching Hospital, Bharatpur, Nepal were selected on the basis of the non-probability (purposive) sampling method. All patients who presented with suspected peptic ulcer perforation were included in the study and the perforations were repaired by Modified Graham’s Patch and were given triple therapy postoperatively. The age, sex, incidence, mode of presentation, precipitating factors, association with the risk factors and postoperative complications were all evaluated and compared. Results: Of 50 patients studied, the age ranged from 17 to 75 years, mean age being 40.1 years with the peak incidence in the 3rd and 5th decades of life showing a male dominance (92%). H. pylori was seen in ulcer edge biopsy in 29 patients (58%). Most common clinical presentation was pain abdomen, the most common signs of perforation were tenderness, rebound tenderness and absent bowel sounds. The mean duration of stay in hospital in H. pylori positive patients was 12.07±8.15 days as compared with 11.1±5.12 days in H. pylori negative patients. The incidence of peptic ulcer perforation was higher in the patients consuming alcohol (64%) than smokers (48%), followed by NSAIDs user(22%). 20% of the patients with delayed presentation developed complications postoperatively. Perforated peptic ulcer was repaired by Modified Graham’s Patch Repair, followed by anti H. pylori therapy in all of them. Conclusion: Peptic ulcer perforation is quite common among the patients with peptic ulcer disease with history of chronic smoking, alcoholism and analgesic intake, more commonly in males. There is association of H. pylori in 58% of patients with peptic ulcer perforation.

Background: Gastric ulcer disease remains the most common gastrointestinal disease. This affects about 4 million people every year worldwide with an incidence of 1.5%-3% and 2-14% of these will progress to perforation. Mortality is reported in 30% of cases and caused morbidity in 50% of patients. Some studies have suggested that mortality in patients with peritonitis accompanied by candidiasis ranges from 20%-75%, whereas others have argued that the presence of fungal isolates in patients with perforated peptic ulcer does not affect the outcome. A recent study reported an incidence of 45% of patients peptic ulcer perforation cases accompanied by candidiasis in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya in 2019.Methods: This was a cross sectional study based on medical record data of patients with gastric ulcer perforation accompanied by candidiasis who underwent laparotomy and gastric repair surgery at Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya from January 2019 to December 2020.Results: There was no significant correlation between candidiasis and mortality in gastric ulcer perforation patients (p=0.989).Conclusion: Candidiasis does not increase mortality in patients with gastric ulcer perforation.

Background: Although the role of Helicobacter pylori infection in noncomplicated peptic ulcer disease has been definitively established, the precise relationship between the organism and ulcer complications is doubtful. Recurrent ulcer disease after peptic ulcer perforation mainly occurs in patients with H. pylori infection, which suggests that the microorganism plays an important role in this complication.Methods: This observational study was conducted in the Department of General Surgery, Himalayan Institute of Medical Sciences (HIMS), Swami Ram Nagar, Dehradun, over a period of January 2013 to December 2013 and included 75 subjects who underwent exploratory laparotomy for peptic ulcer perforation. The tests used for the diagnosis of H. pylori are mucosal biopsy at the time of surgery, Rapid urease test (RUT), Stool antigen test.Results: In this study, H. pylori infection was found to be present in 61% of these patients as detected by biopsy. There were 66 males and 9 females. Infection with H. pylori is almost universal in patients aged more than 70 years.Conclusions: In the Indian context patients presenting with perforation should be tested for infection with H. pylori utilizing a gastric antral mucosal biopsy taken at the time of operation for histological analysis and eradication therapy should be advised to all those who are found positive.

AbstractPeptic ulcer disease (PUD) is caused by many sociodemographic and economic risk factors other than H. pylori infection. However, no studies reported an association between PUD and the number of household members. We showed the number of family members affected by PUD based on sex in a Korean population. This cross-sectional study used 1998–2009 data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Multiple binary logistic regression models adjusted for confounders were constructed to analyze the association of PUD with the number of household members. The number of household members was associated with PUD, age, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, hemoglobin, glucose, location (urban/rural), income, education level, stress, current drinking, and smoking in both sexes. Men with other household members had a higher PUD risk compared to men or women living alone (reference), and the opposite was observed for women. Men with 4 household members had a higher PUD risk than men living alone in the model adjusted for age, BMI, income, location, education, and stress (OR = 2.04 [95% CI 1.28–3.27], p value = .003). Women with more than 6 household members had a lower PUD risk than women living alone in the adjusted model (OR = 0.50 [0.33–0.75], p value = .001). Women with more household members had a lower PUD risk. However, more men had PUD than women regardless of the number of household members.

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Helicobacter pylori infection is mainly acquired during childhood, and is associated with significant morbidity in adults. The aim here was to evaluate the seroprevalence and risk factors of H. pylori infection among children of low socioeconomic level attended at a public hospital in São Paulo, Brazil. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional study, among patients attended at an outpatient clinic. METHODS: 326 children were evaluated (150 boys and 176 girls; mean age 6.82 ± 4.07 years) in a cross-sectional study. Patients with chronic diseases or previous H. pylori treatment, and those whose participation was not permitted by the adult responsible for the child, were excluded. The adults answered a demographic questionnaire and blood samples were collected. The serological test used was Cobas Core II, a second-generation test. Titers > 5 U/ml were considered positive. RESULTS: H. pylori infection was diagnosed in 116 children (35.6%). Infected children were older than uninfected children (7.77 ± 4.08 years versus 5.59 ± 3.86 years; p < 0.0001). The seroprevalence increased from 20.8% among children aged two to four years, to 58.3% among those older than 12 years. There were no significant relationships between seropositivity and gender, color, breastfeeding, number of people in the home, number of rooms, bed sharing, living in a shantytown, maternal educational level, family income or nutritional status. In multivariate analysis, the only variable significantly associated with H. pylori seropositivity was age. CONCLUSION: Infection had intermediate prevalence in the study population, and age was associated with higher prevalence.
