Abstract

AIM: To study the sensitivity, specifity and clinical utility of ¹⁴C urea breathing test of Helicobacter pylori infection.

METHODS: All the 150 cases (40 cases of chronic gastritis, 30 cases of gastric ulcer, 50 cases of duodenal ulcer, 20 cases of gastric carcinoma 8 cases of polypous gastritis, 2 cases of portal hypertensive gastropathy) were examined by fibrogastroscopy and confirmed by biopsy pathology, 15 cases of duodenal ulcer and 5 cases of gastric ulcer were treated with PPI tetratherapy for 1 mo, then a comparison between the pretreatment and posttreatment was made, ¹⁴C-urea was calculated by scintillator.

RESULTS: (1) The Hp infection rates of chronic gastritis duodenal ulcer and gastric ulcer and gastric carcinoma had no difference in statistics with the method of ¹⁴C-UBT. (2) There was no difference of ¹⁴C-UBT radioactivity value between chronic gastritis and duodenal ulcer, (3) Chronic gastritis accompanied with gastric mucosal erosion atrophy and entero-metaplasia was significantly higher than simple chronic gastritis (t < 0.05). (4) After one-month bactericidal treatment the bactericidal rate reached 100%.

CONCLUSION: ¹⁴C-UBT is a sensitive, high effective and specific method for Hp detection.
