Abstract

Helicobacter pylori is an important cause of chronic gastritis and plays important roles in the etiology of peptic ulcer disease, gastric cancer and non-ulcer dyspepsia. While H. pylori infections occur worldwide, the great majority of information is from the developed countries, and little is known about the epidemiology of H. pylori in the developing countries, particularly in children.
