Abstract:
:Helicobacter pylori colonizes the gastric mucosa. H. pylori infection is the main cause of peptic ulcer and gastric malignancy. This review gives an overview on the epidemiology of H. pylori infection and H. pylori-associated diseases in the developed world, mainly Europe, and it discusses very recent developments with regard to the prevalence and its future implications for H. pylori-associated diseases.
