Quinolone has the disadvantage of easily acquired drug resistance. It is important to prescribe it wisely for a high eradication rate. The current study aimed to determine the clinical and bacteriological factors for optimal levofloxacin-containing triple therapies in second-line H. pylori eradication. We enrolled a total of 158 H. pylori-infected patients who failed H. pylori eradication using the 7-day standard triple therapy (proton-pump inhibitor [PPI] twice daily, 500 mg clarithromycin twice daily, and 1 g amoxicillin twice daily). They were prescribed with either a 10-day (group A) or 14-day (group B) levofloxacin-containing triple therapy group (levofloxacin 500 mg once daily, amoxicillin 1 g twice daily, and esomeprazole 40 mg twice daily for 10 days) by their clinicians. Follow-up studies to assess treatment responses were carried out 8 weeks later. The eradication rates attained by groups A and B were 73.6% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 63.9–85.3%) and 90.5% (95% CI = 84.5–98.1%), respectively in the per protocol analysis (P = 0.008 in the per protocol analysis) and 67.1% (95% CI = 56.6–78.5%) and 84.8% (95% CI = 76.8–93.4%), respectively, in the intention-to-treat analysis (P = 0.009). The subgroup analysis revealed that H. pylori eradication rates for group A patients with levofloxacin-susceptible strains were 92.9% (13/14) but it dropped to 12.5% (1/8) when levofloxacin-resistant strains existed. H. pylori was eradicated among all the group B patients with levofloxacin-susceptible strains, but only half of patients with levofloxacin-resistant strains were successfully eradicated. In conclusion, this study confirms the effectiveness of 14-day treatment. Importantly, the results imply that 10-day treatment duration should be optimal if a culture can be performed to confirm the existence of susceptible strains. The duration of H. pylori eradication and levofloxacin resistance were the influencing factors for successful treatment. This study suggests that tailored levofloxacin-containing therapy should be administered only for patients with susceptible strains because it can achieve >90% success rates. 相似文献

Background: Using quadruple clarithromycin‐containing regimens for Helicobacter pylori eradication is controversial with high rates of macrolide resistance. Aim: To evaluate antibiotic resistance rates and the efficacy of empirical and tailored nonbismuth quadruple (concomitant) therapy in a setting with cure rates <80% for triple and sequential therapies. Methods: 209 consecutive naive H. pylori‐positive patients without susceptibility testing were empirically treated with 10‐day concomitant therapy (proton pump inhibitors (PPI), amoxicillin 1 g, clarithromycin 500 mg, and metronidazole 500 mg; all drugs b.i.d.). Simultaneously, 89 patients with positive H. pylori culture were randomized to receive triple versus concomitant therapy for clarithromycin‐susceptible H. pylori, and sequential versus concomitant therapy for clarithromycin‐resistant strains. Eradication was confirmed with 13C‐urea breath test or histology 8 weeks after completion of treatment. Results: Per‐protocol (PP) and intention‐to‐treat eradication rates after empirical concomitant therapy without susceptibility testing were 89% (95%CI:84–93%) and 87% (83–92%). Antibiotic resistance rates were: clarithromycin, 20%; metronidazole, 34%; and both clarithromycin and metronidazole, 10%. Regarding clarithromycin‐susceptible H. pylori, concomitant therapy was significantly better than triple therapy by per protocol [92% (82–100%) vs 74% (58–91%), p = 0.05] and by intention to treat [92% (82–100%) vs 70% (57–90%), p = 0.02]. As for antibiotic‐resistant strains, eradication rates for concomitant and sequential therapies were 100% (5/5) vs 75% (3/4), for clarithromycin‐resistant/metronidazole‐susceptible strains and 75% (3/4) vs 60% (3/5) for dual‐resistant strains. Conclusions: Empirical 10‐day concomitant therapy achieves good eradication rates, close to 90%, in settings with multiresistant H. pylori strains. Tailored concomitant therapy is significantly superior to triple therapy for clarithromycin‐susceptible H. pylori and at least as effective as sequential therapy for resistant strains. 相似文献

Background. Primary and acquired resistance to the antimicrobial agents is a primary reason for the failure of Helicobacter pylori eradication therapies. We assessed the primary antibiotic resistance rates of H. pylori to three different antibiotics and its relationship due to the annual antibiotic consumption in Japan during the period prior to approval of anti‐H. pylori therapy in Japan. Materials and Methods. Antibiotic susceptibility was tested using the agar dilution method for clarithromycin, amoxicillin and metronidazole. Isolates were considered resistant when the MIC value was > 8 mg/l for metronidazole, > 1 mg/l for clarithromycin and < 0.5 mg/l for amoxicillin. Results. Helicobacter pylori isolates were obtained from 593 Japanese patients from 1995 to 2000. Primary resistance of H. pylori to clarithromycin, metronidazole and amoxicillin was found in 11%, 9% and 0.3% strains, respectively. The proportion with clarithromycin resistance significantly increased from 7% in 1997–98 to 15.2% in 1999–2000 (p = .003). During the same period the metronidazole resistance rate also increased from 6.6% in 1997–98 to 12% in 1999–2000 (p = .02). The prevalence of clarithromycin and metronidazole was related to the annual consumption of these antimicrobial agents. Conclusion. Resistance rates for both clarithromycin and metronidazole appear to reflect the annual consumption of these agents. The high rate of clarithromycin resistance in Japan suggests that the effectiveness of clarithromycin‐based therapies may be compromised in the near future. 相似文献

Background: Low Helicobacter pylori eradication rates are common in pediatric trials especially in developing countries. The aim of the study was to investigate the role of antibiotic resistance, drug dosage, and administration frequency on treatment outcome for children in Vietnam. Materials and Methods: Antibiotics resistance of H. pylori was analyzed by the Etest in 222 pretreatment isolates from children 3–15 years of age who were originally recruited in a randomized trial with two treatment regiments: lansoprazole with amoxicillin and either clarithromycin (LAC) or metronidazole (LAM) in two weight groups with once‐ or twice‐daily administration. The study design was an observational study embedded in a randomized trial. Results: The overall resistance to clarithromycin, metronidazole, and amoxicillin was 50.9%, 65.3%, and 0.5%, respectively. In LAC, eradication was linked to the strains being susceptible to clarithromycin (78.2% vs 29.3%, p = .0001). Twice‐daily dosage of proton‐pump inhibitor (PPI) and clarithromycin was more effective for eradication than once‐daily dosage for resistant strains (50.0% vs 14.7%, p = .004) and tended to be so also for sensitive strains (87.5% vs 65.2%, p = .051). Exact antibiotic dose per body weight resulted in more eradication for resistant strains (45.3% vs 8.0%, p = .006). These differences were less pronounced for the LAM regimen, with twice‐daily PPI versus once daily for resistant strains resulting in 69.2% and 50.0% eradication (p = .096), respectively. Conclusions: Helicobacter pylori clarithromycin resistance was unexpectedly high in young children in Vietnam. Clarithromycin resistance was an important cause for eradication treatment failure. Twice‐daily administration and exact antibiotic dosing resulted in more eradicated infections when the strains were antibiotic resistant, which has implications for the study design in pediatric H. pylori eradication trials. 相似文献

Antibiotics, commonly amoxycillin, tetracycline, metronidazole and clarithromycin, are presently used in combination with anti-ulcer agents such as omeprazole, colloidal bismuth subcitrate, and sucralfate to treat Helicobacter pylori infection in patients with peptic ulcer, and compelling evidence has accumulated that eradication of the organism prevents duodenal ulcer relapse. The latest combination (MACH I) involved omeprazole, amoxycillin or metronidazole, and clarithromycin and claimed 90-96 percent success in H. pylori eradication. While the eradication rates of the bacteria are usually between 60-80 percent, the healing rates of duodenal ulcer using these regimens have been remarkably high, often over 90 percent, even with regimens that do not contain proton-pump inhibitors. Antibiotics alone, such as furazolidone and metronidazole, have been reported to heal peptic ulcer with various successes. In a recent double-blind placebo-controlled study, we showed that antibiotics alone, in the form of metronidazole, amoxycillin and clarithromycin, effectively healed 92.5 percent of patients with duodenal ulcer, and that the healing was largely accountable by clearance of H. pylori. Thus, the present day evidence indicates that both healing and prevention of relapse of peptic ulcer can be achieved by treatment of H. pylori. Metronidazole resistance is emerging rapidly, especially in Asia, and is likely to affect eradication success. At this point in time, the best regimen for peptic ulcer associated with H. pylori includes the use of a proton-pump inhibitor plus two antibiotics for one to two weeks. 相似文献

Objective To determine the cost effectiveness of Helicobacter pylori “test and treat” compared with empirical acid suppression in the initial management of patients with dyspepsia in primary care.Design Randomised controlled trial.Setting 80 general practices in the United Kingdom.Participants 699 patients aged 18-65 who presented to their general practitioner with epigastric pain, heartburn, or both without “alarm symptoms” for malignancy.Intervention H pylori 13C urea breath test plus one week of eradication treatment if positive or proton pump inhibitor alone; subsequent management at general practitioner’s discretion.Main outcome measures Cost effectiveness in cost per quality adjusted life year (QALY) (EQ-5D) and effect on dyspeptic symptoms at one year measured with short form Leeds dyspepsia questionnaire.Results 343 patients were randomised to testing for H pylori, and 100 were positive. The successful eradication rate was 78%. 356 patients received proton pump inhibitor for 28 days. At 12 months no significant differences existed between the two groups in QALYs, costs, or dyspeptic symptoms. Minor reductions in costly resource use over the year in the test and treat group “paid back” the initial cost of the intervention.Conclusions Test and treat and acid suppression are equally cost effective in the initial management of dyspepsia. Empirical acid suppression is an appropriate initial strategy. As costs are similar overall, general practitioners should discuss with patients at which point to consider H pylori testing.Trial registration Current Controlled Trials ISRCTN87644265. 相似文献

Background
Geographic differences exist in the antibiotic resistance patterns of Helicobacter pylori. Personalized treatment regimens based on local or individual resistance data are essential. We evaluated the current status of H. pylori resistance in Ningxia, analyzed resistance-related factors, and assessed the concordance of phenotypic and genotypic resistance.Methods
Strains were isolated from the gastric mucosa of patients infected with H. pylori in Ningxia and relevant clinical information was collected. Phenotypic antibiotic susceptibility assays (Kirby–Bauer disk diffusion) and antibiotic resistance gene detection (Sanger sequencing) were performed.Results
We isolated 1955 H. pylori strains. The resistance rates of H. pylori to amoxicillin, levofloxacin, clarithromycin, and metronidazole were 0.9%, 42.4%, 40.4%, and 94.2%, respectively. Only five tetracycline-resistant and one furazolidone-resistant strain were identified. Overall, 3.3% of the strains were sensitive to all six antibiotics. Multidrug-resistant strains accounted for 22.9%, of which less than 20% were from Wuzhong. Strains isolated from women and patients with nonulcerative disease had higher rates of resistance to levofloxacin and clarithromycin. Higher rates of resistance to metronidazole, levofloxacin, and clarithromycin were observed in the older age group than in the younger age group. The kappa coefficients of phenotypic resistance and genotypic resistance for levofloxacin and clarithromycin were 0.830 and 0.809, respectively, whereas the remaining antibiotics showed poor agreement.Conclusion
H. pylori antibiotic resistance is severe in Ningxia. Therefore, furazolidone, amoxicillin, and tetracycline are better choices for the empirical therapy of H. pylori infection in this region. Host sex, age, and the presence of ulcerative diseases may affect antibiotic resistance of the bacteria. Personalized therapy based on genetic testing for levofloxacin and clarithromycin resistance may be a future direction for the eradication therapy of H. pylori infection in Ningxia. 相似文献8.

Aims: While triple therapy with a proton pump inhibitor, amoxicillin, and clarithromycin is the standard therapy for Helicobacter pylori eradication, it is ineffective against clarithromycin‐resistant strains. To seek a better regimen for eradication therapy, we assessed the sensitivity of clinical strains seen in Japan to faropenem and then evaluated the efficacy and safety of eradication therapy containing this antibiotic. Methods: Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of faropenem were determined in 78 Japanese clinical H. pylori isolates using the agar dilution method. H. pylori‐positive patients were consecutively assigned to a 7‐day eradication therapy protocol with LAF (lansoprazole 60 mg/day, amoxicillin 2000 mg/day, and faropenem 600 mg/day), and then to a 14‐day protocol. The outcomes of the therapies were assessed by 13C‐urea breath tests. Results: All 78 strains showed MICs of faropenem that were equal to or less than 0.2 µg/mL. The eradication rates according to intention‐to‐treat analyses were 46.5% with the 7‐day therapy (n = 43) and 62.5% with the 14‐day therapy (n = 32). No special measures were required to treat the adverse events observed in approximately one‐third of the patients. Conclusions: Faropenem was found to have good antimicrobial action against H. pylori in vitro. The 14‐day LAF therapy successfully eradicated H. pylori in about two‐thirds of the patients although the incidence of adverse events was high. 相似文献

Background
Previous meta-analyses reported that probiotics improve the effectiveness of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication during antibiotic therapy, while results regarding a possible reduction of side effects remained inconclusive. Moreover, the effectiveness of different strains of probiotics has not been studied so far. It is further conceivable that probiotics will produce additional effects only if antibiotics are relatively ineffective.Methods
This meta-analysis includes eligible randomized controlled trials examining effects of probiotics supplementation on eradication rates (ER) and side effects, published up to May 2014. Sub-group analysis was performed to compare different probiotic strains and antibiotic therapies with different effectiveness in controls (ER <80% vs.>80%). Publication bias was assessed with funnel plots and Harbord''s test. The quality of the trials was assessed with the Cochrane risk of bias tool.Results
Thirty-three RCTs involving a total of 4459 patients met the inclusion criteria in case of eradication rates of which 20 assessed total side effects in addition. Overall, the pooled eradication rate in probiotics supplementation groups was significantly higher than in controls (ITT analysis: RR 1.122, 95% CI 1.086–1.159, PP analysis: RR 1.114, 95% CI 1.070–1.159). Sub group-analysis could, however, confirm this finding only for four individual strains (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei DN-114001, Lactobacillus gasseri, and Bifidobacterium infantis 2036) and for relatively ineffective antibiotic therapies. There was a significant difference between groups in the overall incidence of side effects (RR 0.735, 95% CI 0.598–0.902). This result was, however, only confirmed for non-blinded trials.Conclusions
The pooled data suggest that supplementation with specific strains of probiotics compared with eradication therapy may be considered an option for increasing eradication rates, particularly when antibiotic therapies are relatively ineffective. The impact on side effects remains unclear and more high quality trials on specific probiotic strains and side effects are thus needed. 相似文献10.

Background
Helicobacter pylori is the etiological agent for diseases ranging from chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer disease to gastric adenocarcinoma and primary gastric B-cell lymphoma. Emergence of resistance to antibiotics possesses a challenge to the effort to eradicate H. pylori using conventional antibiotic-based therapies. The molecular mechanisms that contribute to the resistance of these strains have yet to be identified and are important for understanding the evolutional pattern and selective pressure imposed by the environment.Methods and Findings
H. pylori was isolated from 102 patients diagnosed with gastrointestinal diseases, who underwent endoscopy at University Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC). The isolates were tested for their susceptibility on eleven antibiotics using Etest. Based on susceptibility test, 32.3% of the isolates were found to have primary metronidazole resistance; followed by clarithromycin (6.8%) and fluoroquinolones (6.8%). To further investigate the resistant strains, mutational patterns of gene rdxA, frxA, gyrA, gyrB, and 23S rRNA were studied. Consistent with the previous reports, metronidazole resistance was prevalent in the local population. However, clarithromycin, fluoroquinolone and multi-drug resistance were shown to be emerging. Molecular patterns correlated well with phenotypic data. Interestingly, multi-drug resistant (MDR) strains were found to be associated with higher minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) than their single-drug resistant (SDR) counterparts. Most importantly, clarithromycin-resistant strains were suggested to have a higher incidence for developing multi-drug resistance.Conclusion
Data from this study highlighted the urgency to monitor closely the prevalence of antibiotic resistance in the Malaysian population; especially that of clarithromycin and multi-drug resistance. Further study is needed to understand the molecular association between clarithromycin resistance and multi-drug resistance in H. pylori. The report serves a reminder that a strict antibiotic usage policy is needed in Malaysia and other developing countries (especially those where H. pylori prevalence remained high). 相似文献11.

Background
Antibiotic combination therapy for Helicobacter pylori eradication must be adapted to local resistance patterns, but the epidemiology of H. pylori resistance to antibiotics is poorly documented in Africa. The aim was to determine the antibiotic resistance rates, as well as the associated molecular mechanisms, of strains isolated in Dakar, Senegal.Methods
One hundred and eight H. pylori strains were isolated between 2007 and 2009 from 108 patients presenting with upper abdominal pain to the Gastroenterology Department of Le Dantec Hospital. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed for amoxicillin, clarithromycin, metronidazole, levofloxacin and tetracyclin using the E-test method. Mutations in the 23S rRNA gene of clarithromycin-resistant strains and in gyrA and gyrB of levofloxacin-resistant strains were investigated.Results
Isolates were characterized by no resistance to amoxicillin (0%), tetracycline (0%), and very low rate of resistance to clarithromycin (1%), but a high rate of resistance to metronidazole (85%). The clarithromycin-resistant strain displayed the A2143G mutation. A worrying rate of levofloxacin resistance was detected (15%). N87I and D91N were the most common mutations in the quinolone-resistance-determining region of gyrA.Conclusions
The first-line empirical regimen for H. pylori eradication in Senegal should include clarithromycin. Increasing rates of fluoroquinolone resistance detected should discourage the use of levofloxacin-containing regimens without prior antimicrobial susceptibility testing. 相似文献12.

Background. Ranitidine bismuth citrate (RBC), 400 mg bid for 4 weeks, plus clarithromycin, 500 mg tid, is a regimen approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori in patients with duodenal ulcers. Proof that the clarithromycin portion of the regimen could be given twice daily without loss of efficacy would reduce cost and improve patient compliance. The objective of this study was to compare the H. pylori eradication rates in patients who had duodenal ulcer and were randomly assigned to 4 weeks of treatment with RBC, 400 mg bid, in conjunction with 2 weeks of therapy with either clarithromycin, 500 mg tid, or clarithromycin, 500 mg bid. Patients and Methods. Patients who had a duodenal ulcer and were H. pylori–positive by at least two tests were randomly assigned to (1) RBC, 400 mg bid for 4 weeks, plus clarithromycin, 500 mg tid for 2 weeks, or (2) RBC, 400 mg bid for 4 weeks, plus clarithromycin, 500 mg bid for 2 weeks. H. pylori eradication was assessed 4 weeks after completion of RBC plus clarithromycin. Results. Three hundred eighty-three patients from 78 centers had a duodenal ulcer and were H. pylori–positive. The modified intent-to-treat (MITT) and the per-protocol (PP) eradication rates were statistically equivalent between the twice-daily (65% MITT, 74% PP) and thrice-daily (63% MITT, 73% PP) clarithromycin treatment regimens. Incidence and types of adverse events did not differ between the two groups. Conclusions. For eradicating H. pylori in patients with duodenal ulcer, clarithromycin, 500 mg bid for 2 weeks, with RBC, 400 mg bid for 4 weeks, is equivalent to clarithromycin, 500 mg tid with RBC. The potential enhancement of patient compliance, reduced cost of clarithromycin, and equivalent efficacy would support the use of twice-daily clarithromycin in triple-therapy regimens with RBC. 相似文献

Objective
The Taiwan Government issued a policy to restrict antimicrobial usage since 2001. We aimed to assess the changes in the antibiotic consumption and the primary resistance of H. pylori after this policy and the impact of virulence factors on resistance.Methods
The defined daily dose (DDD) of antibiotics was analyzed using the Taiwan National Health Insurance (NHI) research database. H. pylori strains isolated from treatment naïve (N=1395) and failure from prior eradication therapies (N=360) from 9 hospitals between 2000 and 2012 were used for analysis. The minimum inhibitory concentration was determined by agar dilution test. Genotyping for CagA and VacA was determined by PCR method.Results
The DDD per 1000 persons per day of macrolides reduced from 1.12 in 1997 to 0.19 in 2008, whereas that of fluoroquinolones increased from 0.12 in 1997 to 0.35 in 2008. The primary resistance of amoxicillin, clarithromycin, metronidazole, and tetracycline remained as low as 2.2%, 7.9%, 23.7%, and 1.9% respectively. However, the primary levofloxacin resistance rose from 4.9% in 2000–2007 to 8.3% in 2008–2010 and 13.4% in 2011–2012 (p=0.001). The primary resistance of metronidazole was higher in females than males (33.1% vs. 18.8%, p<0.001), which was probably attributed to the higher consumption of nitroimidazole. Neither CagA nor VacA was associated with antibiotic resistance.Conclusions
The low primary clarithromycin and metronidazole resistance of H. pylori in Taiwan might be attributed to the reduced consumption of macrolides and nitroimidazole after the national policy to restrict antimicrobial usage. Yet, further strategies are needed to restrict the consumption of fluoroquinolones in the face of rising levofloxacin resistance. 相似文献14.

Background: Recent studies have suggested the eradication rate for Helicobacter pylori infection with standard amoxycillin–clarithromycin‐containing triple therapy as first‐line treatment have fallen below 80%. Levofloxacin‐containing triple therapy was proposed as an alternative. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and tolerability of the standard 7‐day clarithromycin‐containing triple therapy against the 7‐day levofloxacin‐containing triple therapy, and to assess whether the classical triple therapy is still valid as empirical first‐line treatment for H. pylori infection in Hong Kong. Methods: Three hundred consecutive H. pylori‐positive patients were randomized to receive either 1 week of EAL (esomeprazole 20 mg b.d., amoxycillin 1 g b.d., and levofloxacin 500 mg daily) or EAC (esomeprazole 20 mg b.d., amoxycillin 1 g b.d., and clarithromycin 500 mg b.d.). H. pylori status was rechecked by 13C‐urea breath test 6 weeks after treatment. Patients who failed either of the first‐line eradication therapy were invited to undergo H. pylori susceptibility testing. Results: H. pylori eradication was achieved in 128 of 150 (85.3%) patients in EAL and 139 of 150 (92.7%) patients in EAC groups, respectively (p = .043), for both intention‐to‐treat and per‐protocol analysis. More patients in the clarithromycin‐ than the levofloxacin‐containing therapy group developed side effects from the medication (21.3% vs 13.3%, p = .060). Nine patients (six from the EAL group and three from the EAC group) who failed their corresponding eradication therapy returned for susceptibility testing. All nine isolates were highly resistant to levofloxacin (minimum inhibitory concentration or MIC > 32 μg/mL), whereas only two of the six isolates from the EAL group were resistant to clarithromycin (MIC > 0.5 μg/mL). Conclusions: The standard 7‐day clarithromycin‐containing triple therapy is still valid as the most effective empirical first‐line eradication therapy for H. pylori infection in Hong Kong, as prevalence of primary resistance of H. pylori to amoxycillin and clarithromycin remains low. Patients who failed their empirical first‐line eradication therapy should undergo H. pylori susceptibility testing to guide further treatment. 相似文献

Background and objectivesPeptic ulcer disease, chronic gastritis, and stomach cancer are all caused by H. pylori. The most notable drug for the treatment is the antibiotic clarithromycin, which is currently the drug of choice. H. pylori clarithromycin resistance has been associated with point mutations in 23srRNA, the most prominent of which are A2143 and A2144G. In H. pylori bacteria, methylase synthesis, macrolide-inactivating enzyme activity, and active efflux have all been found to be resistance mechanisms. The goal of the study is to determine how resistant H. pylori is to clarithromycin and what the minimum inhibitory concentration is for various antimicrobials. Furthermore, gastro-endoscopy will be performed on Iraqi patients to detect the presence of A2143G and A2144G point mutations in Helicobacter pylori infections, as diagnosed from the pyloric region and other anatomical regions.MethodsOne hundred fifteen samples were collected from patients strongly suspected of H. pylori infection presented for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy at Ramadi Teaching Hospitals and Private Clinics for the period from January 2020 until February 2021. Specimens were cultured on brain heart infusion agar containing various antibiotics and were incubated at 37 °C under microaerophilic conditions. For identification of H. pylori, isolates of the biochemical tests and RT-PCR assay were applied. The Epsilometer test was used in the antibiotic susceptibility testing as dependent on the CLSI standard. The Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism technique was used to determine point mutations.ResultsIn total, 55 (47.8%) Helicobacter pylori isolates were cultured from the 115 biopsy specimens, among which 16 (29.1%), 38 (69.1%), 20 (36.4%), and 40 (72.7%) revealed some degree of resistance to levofloxacin, clarithromycin, ciprofloxacin, and metronidazole, respectively. The frequency of A2144G and A2143 point mutations were 23 (60.5%) and 19 (50%), respectively.ConclusionsAccording to our results, Helicobacter pylori showed high resistance to clarithromycin. Our results demonstrate the requirement for antibiotic susceptibility testing and molecular methods in selecting drug regimens. 相似文献

Background
The decreasing eradication rate of Helicobacter pylori is mainly because of the progressive increase in its resistance to antibiotics. Studies on antimicrobial susceptibility of H. pylori in children are limited. This study aimed to investigate the resistance rates and patterns of H. pylori strains isolated from children.Materials and Methods
Gastric mucosa biopsy samples obtained from children who had undergone upper gastrointestinal endoscopy were cultured for H. pylori, and susceptibility to six antibiotics (clarithromycin, amoxicillin, gentamicin, furazolidone, metronidazole, and levofloxacin) was tested from 2012‐2014.Results
A total of 545 H. pylori strains were isolated from 1390 children recruited. The total resistance rates of H. pylori to clarithromycin, metronidazole, and levofloxacin were 20.6%, 68.8%, and 9.0%, respectively. No resistance to amoxicillin, gentamicin, and furazolidone was detected. 56.1% strains were single resistance, 19.6% were resistant to more than one antibiotic, 16.7% for double resistance, and 2.9% for triple resistance in 413 strains against any antibiotic. And the H. pylori resistance rate increased significantly from 2012‐2014. There was no significant difference in the resistance rates to clarithromycin, metronidazole, and levofloxacin between different gender, age groups, and patients with peptic ulcer diseases or nonulcer diseases.Conclusions
Antibiotic resistance was indicated in H. pylori strains isolated from children in Hangzhou, and it increased significantly during the 3 years. Our data strongly support current guidelines, which recommend antibiotic susceptibility tests prior to eradication therapy. 相似文献17.

Helicobacter pylori causes disease manifestations in humans including chronic gastric and peptic ulcers, gastric cancer, and lymphoid tissue lymphoma. Increasing rates of H. pylori clarithromycin resistance has led to higher rates of disease development. Because antibiotic resistance involves modifications of outer membrane proteins (OMP) in other Gram-negative bacteria, this study focuses on identification of H. pylori OMP’s using comparative proteomic analyses of clarithromycin-susceptible and -resistant H. pylori strains. Comparative proteomics analyses of isolated sarcosine-insoluble OMP fractions from clarithromycin-susceptible and -resistant H. pylori strains were performed by 1) one dimensional sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis protein separation and 2) in-gel digestion of the isolated proteins and mass spectrometry analysis by Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization-tandem mass spectrometry. Iron-regulated membrane protein, UreaseB, EF-Tu, and putative OMP were down-regulated; HopT (BabB) transmembrane protein, HofC, and OMP31 were up-regulated in clarithromycin-resistant H. pylori. Western blotting and real time PCR, respectively, validated UreaseB subunit and EF-Tu changes at the protein level, and mRNA expression of HofC and HopT. This limited proteomic study provides evidence that alteration of the outer membrane proteins’ profile may be a novel mechanism involved in clarithromycin resistance in H. pylori. 相似文献

Background
The increasing prevalence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) antimicrobial resistance, primarily for clarithromycin decreases the success of treatment. The aim of this study is to determine the local pattern of first‐line antimicrobials resistance and the eradication rate.Material and Methods
Prospective cohort study of H. pylori infected patients (positive histological or cultural exams) treated at Centro Materno‐Infantil do Norte from January of 2013 to October of 2017. Susceptibility to 4 antibiotics: amoxicilin, metronidazole, clarithromycin, and levofloxacin were analyzed by E‐test (phenotypic resistance). The E‐test was chosen because it is simple and cost‐effective for routine susceptibility testing. Point mutations that confer clarithromycin resistance were surveyed (genotypic resistance). Eradication of H. pylori infection was defined by a negative urea breath test or fecal antigen 6‐8 weeks after the end of treatment.Results
Of a total of 74 H. pylori infected patients, 16 were excluded because they had previous H. pylori treatment or severe systemic disease. Median age of infection cases was 15 years (3‐17 years). Eradication regimen used in all patients combined the use of 3 antibiotics (amoxicillin and metronidazole or clarithromycin) and proton pump inibhitor for 14 days and was tailored according antimicrobial susceptibility. 79.5% of the patients completed the treatment. The resistance rate for metronidazole and clarithromycin was 3.3% and 23.3%, respectively. There was no resistance for amoxicilin and levofloxacin. The rate of genotypic resistance to clarithromycin was 37.2%. The eradication rate was 97.8%.Conclusions
The authors found a high resistance rate of H. pylori for clarithromycin in this northern portuguese pediatric center. This factor should determine a change in local current treatment, contraindicating the use of clarithromycin as a first‐line treatment for H. pylori infection in children. The high eradication rate maybe explained for the eradication treatment tailored according antimicrobial susceptibility. 相似文献19.
Background: Sequential regimens have been recently reported to be superior to the standard triple therapies in Helicobacter pylori eradication, but most of these studies were performed in Europe and data from developing countries are lacking. So we designed a study to compare a sequential regimen with a bismuth‐based quadruple therapy that contains a short course of furazolidone, in Iran. Methods: Two hundred and ninety‐six patients with duodenal ulcer and naïve H. pylori infection were randomized into two groups: 148 patients received (PAB‐F) pantoprazole (40 mg‐bid), amoxicillin (1 g‐bid), and bismuth subcitrate (240 mg‐bid) for 2 weeks and furazolidone (200 mg‐bid) just during the first week. And 148 patients received (PA‐CT) pantoprazole (40 mg‐bid) for 10 days, amoxicillin (1 g‐bid) for the first 5 days, and clarithromycin (500 mg‐bid) plus tinidazole (500 mg‐bid) just during the second 5 days. C14‐urea breath test was performed 8 weeks after the treatment. Results: Two hundred and sixty‐one patients completed the study (137 patients in the PA‐CT and 124 in the PAB‐F group). The results were not statistically different between the two groups in the eradication rates and the severity of side effects. The intention to treat eradication rate was 80.4% in the PAB‐F group and 83.7% in the PA‐CT group. Per‐protocol eradication rates were 88.7% and 89.1%, respectively. Conclusion: Because the two regimens showed acceptable and similar abilities in H. pylori eradication and because of much higher cost of clarithromycin in Iran, the furazolidone containing regimen seems to be superior. Further modifications of sequential therapies are needed to make them ideal regimens in developing countries. 相似文献

Background: Therapy combining a proton pump inhibitor (PPI), clarithromycin and either amoxicillin or metronidazole is widely recommended for first‐line treatment for Helicobacter pylori infection. The purpose of this study was to examine the outcomes of PPI‐containing triple therapy and identify factors influencing the cure rate of H. pylori infection in South China. Materials and Methods: H. pylori positive patients with different occupations from 25 hospitals in five provinces of South China were enrolled. They received a PPI, metronidazole and amoxicillin triple therapy for a week. H. pylori eradication was evaluated by 13C‐urea breath test 4 weeks after therapy. Association between H. pylori eradication with occupation, gender, age, educational level, and protocol compliance was evaluated by Logistic regression. Results: Six hundred and seventy‐five were enrolled. The intention‐to‐treat and per‐protocol analyses showed overall cure rates of 60% (95% CI = 56.3–63.7%) and 64.5% (95% CI = 60.7–68.3%), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression showed that occupation, gender and protocol compliance were positively associated with the eradication rate (p < .01). The cure rate for those who took 80% or more of the prescribed drugs was 64.5% (95% CI = 60.7–68.3%) versus 14.6% (95% CI = 6–29%, p < .001) for those who took less. Lower eradication rates were also observed in farmers and women. Conclusions: The eradication rate with a PPI, metronidazole and amoxicillin triple therapy was unacceptably low in South China. These results suggest that studies of the eradication of H. pylori infection in China must take into account antibiotic resistance as well as patient occupation, gender, and protocol compliance. Gastric cancer and peptic ulcer disease are both important in China making methods to effectively and efficiently eradicate H. pylori a priority. 相似文献
