abstract：BACKGROUND:Despite Helicobacter pylori (HP) eradication, individuals can still develop gastric cancer (GC). Prior studies have demonstrated that nonaspirin nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NA-NSAIDs) reduce the risk of GC, but this may be caused by immortal time bias and failure to adjust for HP status. The object...
