Epidemiology of Helicobacter pylori infection.

Helicobacter pylori is a microaerophilic, motile bacterium, especially adapted to life in the human stomach. The presence of H. pylori in the stomach is strongly associated with chronic gastritis and ulcer disease and is a risk factor for gastric cancers. The microorganism may be transmitted orally and has been detected in dental plaque, saliva, and feces, but the hypothesis that oral microflora may be a permanent reservoir of H. pylori is still controversial. A review of the literature suggests that the recovery of H. pylori in the mouth is probably intermittent, associated with gastroesophageal reflux but not with specific oral disease. Nonetheless, the PCR identification of oral H. pylori may become helpful, particularly in cases of gastritis or ulcer relapse after antimicrobial therapy. Eradication of oral H. pylori by local medication or periodontal procedures would rely on the precise identification of its ecological niche. Within family groups, prophylactic methods should be practiced to avoid oral carriage of H. pylori. The risk of iatrogenic transmission during dental care, however, is already circumscribed by standard professional hygiene procedures.

Oral Carriage of Helicobacter pylori: A Review

A causative role for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in the pathogenesis of oral mucosal ulcerations has been suggested previously. We have adopted the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) as a rapid and sensitive means to detect H. pylori in swabs of recurrent oral aphthous ulcers and in samples of other oral sites. Of the oral aphthous ulcer samples, 32 (71.8%) were found to be positive, while the saliva and plaque samples (most of them taken from the patients with aphthous ulcers) were consistently negative for H. pylori DNA, as detected by the PCR assay. Only two of the swab samples from the tongue (collected at the time of concurrent, H. pylori-positive oral aphthous ulcers) were found to be positive. The data suggest that H. pylori may be associated frequently with recurrent oral aphthous ulcers, and are consistent with previous studies indicating that saliva and plaque are not likely sources of contamination with this microorganism. There was no apparent correlation with HIV status (infection with human immunodeficiency virus). The possible pathogenic significance of Helicobacter pylori in oral ulcerations is discussed.

Detection of Helicobacter pylori in oral aphthous ulcers.

Background: The human pathogen Helicobacter pylori and its association with peptic ulcer has dramatically changed the therapeutic approach to patients with this disease. Successful treatment of the infection has consistently been shown to prevent ulcer recurrence. Published data on therapeutic options are sometimes confusing since only few studies have similar design, drug combinations, dosage, dosing, formulation, patient material, and size. A formal meta-analysis is therefore of limited value. Method: Data on anti-H. pylori therapies from a large number of publications are pooled into a few groups based on the combination of drugs, regardless of dosage, duration, etc., of the therapy. A mean success rate is calculated for all studies with subanalysis with regard to study design, size, doses and duration.Results: Triple combinations are needed to achieve a success rate of more than 80%. Bismuth/tetracycline based triple therapy gives 82% success rate (range 43–100%) compared to 85% and 87% success rate (...

La ley de prevencion de riesgos laborales, obliga a integrar la prevencionen la gestion de la empresa. El objetivo de la prevencion de accidentes es evitarlos trtando de anular las causas que los producen. Esto naturalmente requiere una labor profunda de analisis, donde se estudian todos los factores en que se desarrolla normalmente un trabajo. El tradicional olvido del sector agricola, unido a la importancia tanto en valores absolutos como relatiovos de los siniestros atendidos por nosotros, asi como la gravedad de ellos, nos ha impulsado a realizar el presente estudio. Las particularidades existentes en este campo de actividad son la presencia de riesgos muy variados, trabajos muy diversos, personas
