Infection by Helicobacter pylori has for many years been one of the
medical conditions most studied not only in the gastroenterological
context. This is because, in recent years, H. pylori has also been
involved in a number of extra-intestinal diseases. In this book, we
have tried to involve the biggest international experts on the
subject. Some authors have tried to provide a complete view of the
most common and widely used diagnostic methods, both invasive and
non-invasive, also explaining the unusual techniques and the most
innovative complementary methods not yet used in clinical practice.
Other international experts have tried to describe the latest
findings on pathogenesis and the various clinical manifestations of
infection by H. pylori in the various systems. One chapter is
reserved for H. pylori infection in childhood, an important period
especially in transmission of the infection, explaining the various
international guidelines for correct diagnosis and treatment. The
authors have also provided the latest evidence regarding the
various methods of eradication therapy, with a critical analysis of
the reasons that compel some researchers to believe that
eradication at all costs is not always correct and useful for
humans. The book also deals with the current and latest knowledge
regarding the progress and the difficulties in the development of a
vaccine against H. pylori infection, the implementation of which
could solve the problem of the difficulty in the eradication linked
mainly to the onset of antibiotic-resistance.
