Yung-ChihLai, Jyh‐Chin Yang, Shih-HungHuang

Abstract

35‰) UBT groups. RESULTS: A significant correlation was found between pre-treatment UBT results and Hpylori density (P35‰), the eradication rates were 94.7% and 81.6%, respectively (P=0.04). CONCLUSION: The intragastric bacterial load of H pylori can be evaluated by UBT, and high pre-treatment UBT results can predict an adverse outcome of eradication therapy.
