“…16 Otro dato que apoya esta hipótesis es el comportamiento de la enfermedad después del tratamiento erradicador contra la infección por H. pylori; la mayoría de los pacientes evolucionaron a asintomáticos. Investigadores como Marcano-Lozada MJ et al 11 reportaron significativa mejoría clínica de los pacientes después del tratamiento.…”

“…Resultados similares mostraron Vázquez RM et al en España. 16,17,18,19 Se necesitan más estudios acerca del tema, pero la evidencia avala que en los pacientes con urticaria crónica, incluso con ausencia de síntomas digestivos, debe considerarse la posibilidad de la infección y la indicación de exámenes que ayuden al diagnós-tico certero de la enfermedad y a la mejoría clínica de los pacientes.…”

Rev Alerg Mex. 2017;64(4):396-402 Relation between Helicobacter pylori infection and chronic urticaria Relación entre infección por Helicobacter pylori y urticaria crónica AbstractBackground: Chronic spontaneous urticaria is a frequent disease that affects the quality of life of patients. Helicobacter pylori infection has increased in the world, linking current studies with a link between both entities. Objective: To determine the relationship between chronic urticaria and Helicobacter pylori infection. Methods: An observational cohort study was conducted with the objective of demonstrating the relationship between chronic urticaria and Helicobacter pylori infection in the allergology clinic of the Hospital Universitario "Manuel Ascunce Domenech" in the province of Camagüey, Cuba, in the period from January 2015 to December of 2016. A universe composed of 93 patients with spontaneous chronic urticaria and the sample by the 43 who met the criteria and formed the case and control group were the 35 apparently healthy patients who gave informed consent for the study. Results: 76.6 % of the women had urticaria and the mean age was 36.10 years. The serological study was positive in 100 % of the cases. Conclusions: In the present study, the relationship between chronic urticaria and Helicobacter pylori infection was demonstrated. Apparently, the eradicating treatment for Helicobacter pylori was effective as the patients had no symptoms after treatment. Specific immunoglobulin G and urease test together constitute a suitable diagnostic module for the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori conditions.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, quite prevalent in the developing countries, is considered to be one of the causative factors for various gastric pathologies and other nongastric diseases. It is believed that H. pylori infection is almost always acquired in early childhood and persists throughout life unless specific treatment is given. The (13/14)C-urea breath test (UBT) is now considered to be a 'gold standard' technique for the detection of H. pylori infection. However, because of the lack of facilities and high cost, the preferred nonradioactive ¹³C-UBT cannot be performed on pediatric patients in developing countries, whereas the radioactive ¹⁴C-UBT is not used on children because of the fear of radiation exposure. When using 37 kBq (1 μCi) of ¹⁴C-urea for the ¹⁴C-UBT, the patient is not exposed to more radiation than is acquired from the natural environment in one day, as almost all the ingested radioactivity is excreted from the body (urine and breath) within 72-120 h. This article reviews the importance of the ¹⁴C-UBT for the detection of H. pylori and justifies the radiation safety aspects of its use in children without any fear of 'radiation phobia' where the facility for ¹³C-UBT is lacking.
