Abstract:
There has been increasing research on the association between Helicobacter infection and liver diseases,mostly the influence of Helicobacter on liver diseases.The prevalence and bacteriology of Helicobacter during the development of liver diseases,the mechanism by which Helicobacter causes liver diseases,and the diagnosis of liver diseases are reviewed.So far consensus has been reached that three spe-cies of Helicobacter are associated with human liver diseases,namely H.pylori,H.heilmanni,and H.cinaedi.H.pylori has been studied most extensively,but there is little research on the latter two.H.hepaticus is a new type of H.pylori.Studies have shown that further re-search should be conducted on the pathogenesis and prevention of chronic liver diseases.
