Helicobacter pylori (commonly referred to as H. pylori or HP) is a microaerophilic, spiral-shaped bacterium that can colonize and survive in the human stomach. It has strong motility and reproductive capabilities, and adheres to the gastric mucosa and intercellular spaces. It is the only known bacterium capable of surviving in the […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":29289,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[439,1682],"tags":[2246,444,1673,1669,1671,593,590,705,1670,594,2245,1931,701,1675,693,694,1672,699,458,700,467,704,703,469,717,2244],"class_list":["post-29291","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tcm-health-preservation-en","category--en","tag-pembunuh-senyap-di-perut-helicobacter-pylori-en","tag-selangor-en","tag-setia-alam-en","tag-setia-alam-tcm-en","tag-setia-alam--en","tag-shah-alam--en","tag-tcm-en","tag-tcm-knowledge-en","tag-tcm-setia-alam-en","tag-tcm-shah-alam-en","tag-the-invisible-killer-of-the-stomach-helicobacter-pylori-en","tag-traditional-chinese-medicine-setia-alam-en","tag-visions-tcm-branch-en","tag-visions-tcm-setia-alam-en","tag--en","tag--selangor-en","tag--setia-alam-en","tag--shah-alam-en","tag---en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/vstcm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29291","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/vstcm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/vstcm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vstcm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vstcm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29291"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/vstcm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29291\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29292,"href":"https:\/\/vstcm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29291\/revisions\/29292"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vstcm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29289"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/vstcm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29291"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vstcm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29291"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/vstcm.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29291"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n

\n<\/span>2. It can cause chronic gastritis, with typical symptoms such as upper abdominal discomfort, dull pain, belching, acid reflux, nausea, and vomiting. The course of the disease is slow but tends to recur.
\n<\/span>3. It may lead to gastric mucosal damage, with a wide variety of clinical presentations. Many patients experience acid reflux, belching, and a feeling of fullness. <\/span><\/p>\n
\n2. <\/span>The reinfection rate after eradication of H. pylori tends to be higher in children compared to adults. In contrast, the reinfection rate in adults after successful eradication is relatively low.
\n<\/span>3. During growth and development, children have a certain rate of spontaneous clearance, estimated at around 10%. However, in adults, H. pylori infection typically does not resolve on its own without treatment. <\/span><\/p>\n\n
\n<\/span>This includes the Carbon-13 or Carbon-14 urea breath test. It is simple and quick\u2014patients only need to “blow into a device” to detect the presence and amount of Helicobacter pylori in the body. With an accuracy of over 95%, it is the preferred method for diagnosing H. pylori infection. <\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/span>This test detects H. pylori antibodies in the blood to determine if there has been an infection. However, it can only show past exposure and cannot accurately confirm current active infection. <\/span><\/p>\n
\n<\/span>This test is relatively simple and non-invasive, as it does not require internal sampling. It has good sensitivity and specificity for detecting current active infection, although results can be affected by various external factors. <\/span><\/p>\n
