“…Natural reservoirs of HP still remain unclear. The results of studies regarding tonsils as a reservoir of HP are affirmative [3,4,6,7] or negative [5,[14][15][16][17]. In this study, the number of children with positive both RUT and 13 C-UBT was twice smaller than the number of HP seropositive children (8 versus 16).…”

“…In our study we found the rate of presence of the bacterium as 66.6% in the middle ear effusions. In 2004, Yilmaz et al [23] has found that 67% of chronic OME patients showed HP presence in the middle ear effusions. But, they did not find any HP presence in the adenoid tissues of the same patient group.…”

“…The third hypothesis postulates an association between Helicobacter pylori infection and OME; this bacteria has been identified in aspirates from the middle ear. 1,4,5 According to the Montreal consensus criteria, relationships between LPR and reflux laryngitis, reflux asthma syndrome, reflux cough syndrome, and reflux teeth erosion have been confirmed in adults. 6 In children, these associations have not been proven yet.…”

Background/AimsTo evaluate the characteristic properties of laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) and gastroesophageal reflux (GER) in children with otitis media with effusion (OME) using 24-hour multichannel intraluminal impedance combined with dual-probe (pharyngeal and esophageal) pH-metry. MethodsChildren aged 7-10 years of age with OME underwent 24-hour multichannel intraluminal impedance pH-metry. The upper pH sensor was situated 1 cm above the upper esophageal sphincter, and the lower pH sensor was placed 3-5 cm above the lower esophageal sphincter. Parents were asked to complete the gastroesophageal reflux assessment of symptoms in a pediatrics questionnaire. ResultsTwenty-eight children were enrolled; LPR was detected in 19 (67.9%) children. The criteria of the LPR diagnosis was the presence of at least one supraesophageal episode with a pH < 5.0 and a change in the pH value measured from the initial level at the upper sensor of > 0.2. In total, 64 episodes were observed. Assessment of all LPR episodes showed the presence of 246 episodes in the entire study. A considerable predominance of weakly acidic episodes (87.8%) was noted; there were 6.5% acidic episodes, and weakly alkaline episodes reached 5.7%. Pathological GER was noted in 10 (35.7%) subjects. Acid GER was detected in 8 children, 2 of whom demonstrated non-acidic reflux. In the LPR-negative patients, no pathological GER was confirmed with the exception of a single case of non-acidic reflux. ConclusionsLPR was frequently noted in the group of children with OME, and it might be an important risk factor in this common disease.
