Correlation between Helicobacter pylori infection in oral cavity and Helicobacter pylori infection in stomach in children / 国际儿科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Helicobacter Pylori (Hp) is closely related to gastrointestinal diseases.Some scholars have proposed that Hp resides in the oral cavity and oral Hp is related to stomach Hp.The oral cavity has been implicated as a potential Hp reservoir and therefore may be involved in the reinfection or replapse of the stomach Hp after treatment of Hp infection.
