The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of infection in Algerian patients with peptic disorders and evaluate the impact of different epidemiological factors (age, sex, sampling site, presence or absence of , and type of pathology related to this bacterium).
We undertook a retrospective and descriptive study on a series of 735 symptomatic patients identified in the laboratory of pathological anatomy at Hassani Abdelkader University Hospital Center of Sidi Bel Abbes, Algeria, over a period of 16 years from January 2002 to December 2017. All patients had benefited from a high gastroscopic fibroscopy and the diagnosis was made by histological examination (hematoxylin-eosin staining). The epidemiological factors, as well as the main gastric diseases related to this bacterium, were studied.
The prevalence of infection was 66.12%. The infection was more important in the age group 60-69 years (71.43%). The prevalence of infection was statistically higher in women than in men (69.3% vs. 60.7%, < 0.01).The antral region was most colonized by (71.73%). In addition, the infection was associated mainly with atrophic gastritis (69.65%).
In this context, the identification of epidemiological data would be of great value in guiding strategies to control the spread of this bacterium.
本研究旨在评估感染在阿尔及利亚消化性疾病患者中的流行情况,并评估不同流行病学因素(年龄、性别、采样部位、是否存在、与该细菌相关的病理类型)的影响。
我们对 2002 年 1 月至 2017 年 12 月在阿尔及利亚西迪贝勒阿贝斯哈桑阿卜杜勒卡德尔大学医院中心病理解剖实验室鉴定的 735 例有症状患者进行了回顾性描述性研究。所有患者均接受了高胃镜纤维检查,通过组织学检查(苏木精-伊红染色)进行诊断。研究了流行病学因素以及与该细菌相关的主要胃部疾病。
感染的流行率为 66.12%。60-69 岁年龄组感染更为严重(71.43%)。感染在女性中的流行率明显高于男性(69.3%对 60.7%, < 0.01)。 (71.73%)。此外,感染主要与萎缩性胃炎相关(69.65%)。
在这种情况下,识别流行病学数据对于指导控制该细菌传播的策略具有重要价值。
