To validate a simplified 13C-urea breath test (13C-UBT) method for the diagnosis of H. pylori infection.
Patients referred for gastrointestinal endoscopy and biopsy were included, and a 13C-UBT was performed after a 6-hour fast. Breath samples were collected in 10 ml glass tubes before and 30 min after the simultaneous administration of 50 mg of 13C-urea and 2 g of citric acid in 200 ml of water. All breath samples were analyzed using isotope ratio mass spectrometry. The diagnosis of H. pylori infection was established with a positive culture and/or positive histology and serology.
Eighty-eight patients were included, 49 female and 39 male with a mean age of 45 +/- 15 yrs. Fifty-one patients (57.95%) were positive and 30 (34.1%) negative for H. pylori. Seven cases (7.95%) were considered undetermined. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for 13C-UBT were 90.2, 93.3, 95.83, and 84.8%, respectively. Accuracy was 91.4%.
The simultaneous administration of 50 mg of 13C-urea and 2 g of citric acid represents an alternative for the non-invasive diagnosis of H. pylori infection.
验证一种简化的¹³C尿素呼气试验(¹³C-UBT)方法用于诊断幽门螺杆菌感染。
纳入因胃肠内镜检查和活检而转诊的患者,禁食6小时后进行¹³C-UBT。在将50mg¹³C尿素和2g柠檬酸同时溶于200ml水中后,于给药前及给药后30分钟在10ml玻璃管中采集呼气样本。所有呼气样本均采用同位素比率质谱分析法进行分析。通过阳性培养和/或阳性组织学及血清学结果来确诊幽门螺杆菌感染。
共纳入88例患者,其中49例女性,39例男性,平均年龄45±15岁。51例患者(57.95%)幽门螺杆菌检测呈阳性,30例(34.1%)呈阴性。7例(7.95%)结果不确定。¹³C-UBT的敏感性、特异性、阳性预测值和阴性预测值分别为90.2%、93.3%、95.83%和84.8%。准确率为91.4%。
同时给予50mg¹³C尿素和2g柠檬酸是幽门螺杆菌感染非侵入性诊断的一种替代方法。
