Objectives To study the current prevalence and recent epidemiological changes of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection among children and adults residing in regions with high ( Muping, Shandong) and low (Yanqing, Beijing) incidence of gastric cancer in China. Methods A total of 2065 asymptomatic children aged 8-15 years and adults aged 40-79 years in the above two regions were examined from May to July 2006. The data obtained in early 1990s in the same two areas and those of 11 656 patients undergoing endoscopy in our hospital in 1991 and 2006 were also collected and studied. Results The prevalence ofH. pylori infection in Muping was significantly higher than that in Yanqing among both children (37.69% vs25.58%, P<0.001) and adults (50.95% vs41.35%, P < 0. 01 ). From 1991 to 2006 H. pylori prevalence among children aged 8-10 years decreased in Muping (60. 00% vs 32. 07% , P < 0.001), but not in Yanqing (24.06% vs 19.10%, P > 0. 05 ) . A significant decrease in H. pylori prevalence among adults in both regions was observed when the results of 2006 were compared with the data obtained in 1990 in Muping (50.95% vs 73.78% , P < 0. 001 ) and in 1992 inYanqing (41.35% vs 55. 35% , P < 0. 01 ) . The detected rate of H. pylori infection in patients undergoing endoscopy in our hospital decreased from 51. 88% in 1991 to 33. 59% in 2006 (P <0. 001). Conclusions The prevalence of H. pylori infection is significantly higher in areas with a high incidence of gastric cancer in China as compared with that in areas with a low incidence of gastric cancer among both children and adults. H. pylori infection may be a risk factor in gastric carcinogenesis. In the past decade or more, H.pylori infection rates have decreased in Chinese population.

BACKGROUNDHelicobacter pylori (Hp) is a common and potentially curable cause of gastric mucosa lesion. This study investigated the relationship of Hp infection with histological changes in gastric mucosa and gastric cancer in Hp-positive patients compared with Hp-eradication patients followed up for ten years.
METHODSFrom an initial group of 1 006 adults, 552 Hp-positive subjects were randomly assigned to a treatment group (T; n = 276) or a placebo group (P; n = 276). In the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel trial, T group subjects received oral doses of omeprazole, amoxicillin and clarithromycin for 1 week; those in the P group received a placebo. One month after treatment ended, a 13C urea breath test was performed, and Hp was undetectable in 88.89% of the T group. All subjects were followed at 1, 5, 8, and 10 years after treatment, with endoscopy and biopsies for histological examination.
RESULTSGastric mucosa inflammation was significantly milder in the T group than that in the P group one year after Hp eradication and this persisted for 10 years. Glandular atrophy and intestinal metaplasia (IM) had deteriorated in both groups during ten years. However, the increased score of glandular atrophy at both the gastric antrum and corpus, and IM only at the gastric antrum, in the P group was more obvious than that in the T group. During the 10 years, 9 patients were diagnosed with gastric cancer (2 in the T group; 7 in the P group; P = 0.176). When mucosal atrophy was absent at the gastric antrum and corpus when entering the study, the incidence of gastric cancer in the P group (n = 6) was much higher than that in the T group (n = 0, P = 0.013).
CONCLUSIONSHp eradication may significantly diminish and help halt progression of gastric mucosal inflammation and delay the development of IM and atrophy gastritis. Hp eradication is helpful for reducing the risk for gastric cancer, especially in the early stage of Hp infection.
