Recent epidemiological reviews have stated that trends of continuously decreasing prevalence of this bacterium has been reported from different areas around the globe [ 3 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. There is a lack of epidemiological H. pylori studies in Lithuania—already published articles have shown the prevalence of H. pylori ranging from 36% in children [ 14 ] up to 70% in adults [ 15 , 16 ].…”

H pylori infection results in chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, mucosa‐associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma or gastric cancer; therefore, eradication of this bacterium is essential 1,2 . There is a known link between H pylori infection and gastric cancer, and it is well established that eradication of H pylori reduces the risk of developing gastric cancer.…”
