Inflammatory and ulcer lesions were in antropyloric area, and the rate of HP (+) was highest in this area. In comparison with endoscopic diagnosis, the highest ratio of HP was in gastric ulcer accompany with duodenal bulb ulcer, and lowest rate was in acute inflammation. There was no significant difference in infected frequency between male and female. However, moderate and severe infections (Hp2+, Hp3+) in men were more common than those in women
