“…However in our study, 31.6% of GU patients and 62.5% of DU patients were H. pylori positive. This decrease in the prevalence of PUD related to H. pylori was reported in several studies in Australia and the United States of America [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37]. Several factors may have influenced the decreased rate of PUD associated with H. pylori such as the use NSAIDs.…”

IntroductionL'infection à Hélicobacter pylori concerne la moitié de la population mondiale, principalement dans les pays en voie de développement où l'infection atteint 80% de la population. Le but de notre étude était de déterminer la prévalence de l'infection à Hélicobacter pylori et de mettre en évidence les déterminants de l'infection ainsi que les maladies associées au Cameroun.MéthodesL’étude concernait 171 sujets symptomatiques référés pour une fibroscopie œsogastroduodénale au Centre Hospitalier et Universitaire de Yaoundé et au Centre Médical la Cathédrale. L'infection à H.pylori était objectivée par un test rapide à l'uréase kit commercial Pronto Dry® (Medical Instruments Corporation, Solothurn, Switzerland).RésultatsLa prévalence globale de l'infection à Hélicobacter pylori était de 72,5% (124/171) (Intervalle de Confiance (IC) à 95% 65,2-79,1%) et dans chaque groupe d’âge (moins de 40ans, 40-50ans, plus de 50ans) de 83,1%(64/77), 67,4%(29/43) et 60,8%(31/51) respectivement. En analyse univariée, le risque de l'infection était significativement élevé dans le groupe de moins de 40ans comparé au groupe de 40-50ans (Risque Relatif (RR) 0,42 IC 95% 0,16-1,1, p = 0,04 pour le groupe 40-50ans) et comparé au groupe de plus de 50ans (RR 0,73; 0,57-0,93, p = 0,004 pour le groupe de plus de 50ans). La prévalence de l'infection à H.pylori était de 63,0% (17/27) pour l'ulcère duodénal, 50%(4/8) pour l'ulcère gastrique et 100%(2/2) pour le cancer gastrique.ConclusionA prévalence de l'infection à H.pylori au Cameroun est très élevée et significativement liée à l’âge de moins de 40 ans.

“…Various meta-analyses suggest that the relative risk of developing gastric cancer is 2 to 3 times higher for people infected with H. pylori than for those without infection [9,10] and it is believed that roughly 65-80% of gastric cancers are associated with H. pylori infection [6,11]. Also, several studies have reported that 61 to 94% of patients with peptic ulcer disease are infected by H. pylori [12]. The management of patients infected with H. pylori remains complex and still imperfect, the gastroenterologist having an essential role.…”

Abstract:Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) colonize the gastric mucosa of 50% of the world's population. This infection is closely associated with the development of peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer. The present study was conducted to assess the prevalence of H. pylori infection in Moroccan population and the risk to develop gastric precancerous lesions and gastric cancer. Totally, 298 patients were enrolled, 68 of asymptomatic subjects and 230 of patients with gastric diseases. Histological examination was effected to diagnostic gastric lesions and to detect H. pylori. ELISA was used to determine H. pylori status of patients. The prevalence of H. pylori within asymptomatic and symptomatic subjects was observed higher. A significant relationship was detected between H. pylori infection and the risk of gastric diseases (p-value < 0.0001). A meaningful association between chronic gastritis increasing and age was observed (p-value = 0.03). The risk to develop gastric cancer among infected patients was observed elevated with rate of 9%. Our results showed a high prevalence of H. pylori in both asymptomatic and gastric diseases patients. We noticed that chronic gastric infection increases with age. We remarked also that the risk to develop gastric cancer among infected patients was elevated in our population.
