The Prevalence of Mixed Helicobacter pylori Infections in Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Subjects in Dhaka, Bangladesh

Abstract: Our findings suggest that an increased diversity of the H. pylori strains in the gastric environment may contribute to the development of disease symptoms.

“…The application of several techniques is sometimes necessary to demonstrate infections by multiple strains of H. pylori . Cases of multiple infections are very common and are more prevalent in high‐prevalence countries . In this respect, a French–Tunisian study reported a 48% multiple infection rate in Tunisia, a country with a high prevalence, compared to 5% in France, a country with a low prevalence .…”

“…Stomachs can be colonised by multiple strains (Kibria et al 2015; J. W. Kim et al 2004;Ben Mansour et al 2016). Some of the strains could have been linked to gastric cancer, when they were actually not the strains driving the carcinogenesis.…”

“…A good example of diversity can be seen by the fact that two strains of H. pylori found in different patients (or even in patients from a same family) are often extremely different (Kivi et al 2007). Different strains of H. pylori can also colonise a same host (Kibria et al 2015; J. W. Kim et al 2004;Ben Mansour et al 2016). The H. pylori genome is incredibly diverse, with variation in genome size (Dong et al 2014), gene presence, gene order, and allelic profile (Thorell et al 2016).…”
