Liu M, Wang Y, Kong Q, Wang Z, Zhou W, Tao L, Xia Y, Liu Y, Yang Z, Wang B, Liu M, Du B. Knowledge, attitude, and practice toward Helicobacter pylori among residents in Northeast China. Sci Rep 2025; 15:15288. [PMID: 40312460 PMCID: PMC12046017 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-025-00323-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2025] [Indexed: 05/03/2025] Open
Abstract
The primary aim of this study was to investigate the knowledge, attitude, and practice(KAP) concerning Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and the factors influencing them among northeast China individuals. A questionnaire regarding H. pylori, grounded in the KAP theoretical framework, was tailored for northeast China individuals. The questionnaire was conducted online and analyzed statistically. Additionally, structural equation modeling was applied to verify the interconnections among social media usage, knowledge, attitude, and practice. A total of 712 valid questionnaires were analyzed. The mean scores were 2.69 ± 1.03 for knowledge, 4.09 ± 0.81 for attitude, and 3.40 ± 0.73 for practice. Various factors including sex, occupation, and social media usage influenced knowledge, attitude, and practice scores, with social media usage exerting a notable impact on all facets. The structural equation modeling analysis demonstrated that social media usage promoted higher levels of knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding H. pylori. Individuals possessing a higher level of knowledge and attitude concerning H. pylori demonstrated superior preventive practice. Northeast China residents have limited H. pylori knowledge but show a positive attitude and good preventive practice. The utilization of social media has significantly improved the population's knowledge, attitude, and practice concerning H. pylori.

Lai Y, Liao F, Zhao J, Zhu C, Hu Y, Li Z. Exploring the capacities of ChatGPT: A comprehensive evaluation of its accuracy and repeatability in addressing helicobacter pylori-related queries. Helicobacter 2024; 29:e13078. [PMID: 38867649 DOI: 10.1111/hel.13078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Revised: 04/01/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Educational initiatives on Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) constitute a highly effective approach for preventing its infection and establishing standardized protocols for its eradication. ChatGPT, a large language model, is a potentially patient-friendly online tool capable of providing health-related knowledge. This study aims to assess the accuracy and repeatability of ChatGPT in responding to questions related to H. pylori. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-one common questions about H. pylori were collected and categorized into four domains: basic knowledge, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. ChatGPT was utilized to individually answer the aforementioned 21 questions. Its responses were independently assessed by two experts on H. pylori. Questions with divergent ratings were resolved by a third reviewer. Cohen's kappa coefficient was calculated to assess the consistency between the scores of the two reviewers. RESULTS The responses of ChatGPT on H. pylori-related questions were generally satisfactory, with 61.9% marked as "completely correct" and 33.33% as "correct but inadequate." The repeatability of the responses of ChatGPT to H. pylori-related questions was 95.23%. Among the responses, those related to prevention (comprehensive: 75%) had the best response, followed by those on treatment (comprehensive: 66.7%), basic knowledge (comprehensive: 60%), and diagnosis (comprehensive: 50%). In the "treatment" domain, 16.6% of the ChatGPT responses were categorized as "mixed with correct or incorrect/outdated data." However, ChatGPT still lacks relevant knowledge regarding H. pylori resistance and the use of sensitive antibiotics. CONCLUSIONS ChatGPT can provide correct answers to the majority of H. pylori-related queries. It exhibited good reproducibility and delivered responses that were easily comprehensible to patients. Further enhancement of real-time information updates and correction of inaccurate information will make ChatGPT an essential auxiliary tool for providing accurate H. pylori-related health information to patients.

Wu X, Duan M, Kong Q, Zeng S, Xu L, Li Y, Yang X, Zuo X. Clarifying varied Helicobacter pylori eradication therapies: A comprehensive review. Helicobacter 2024; 29:e13048. [PMID: 38716864 DOI: 10.1111/hel.13048] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 11/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 05/24/2024]
Abstract
Current global variations exist in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication regimens. Triple therapy (TT), bismuth quadruple therapy (BQT), and high-dose dual therapy (HDDT) currently represent the predominant regimens. These regimens diverge in terms of treatment duration, the utilization of susceptibility testing, acid-inhibiting drug administration, and patient education. We conducted a comprehensive systematic literature review on these H. pylori treatment regimens. Our review aims to provide standardized treatment recommendations for H. pylori, reducing the risk of amalgamating findings from diverse eradication regimens. Recent research suggests that the optimal treatment duration for TT and BQT may be 14 and 10 days, respectively. Selecting the appropriate treatment duration for HDDT should rely on regional research evidence, and 14 days may be the optimal duration. The incorporation of susceptibility testing in TT is of paramount importance. In the case of BQT, the absence of susceptibility testing may be considered as an option, contingent upon cost and availability, and should be determined based on local antibiotic resistance patterns and the efficacy of empirical regimens. The type and dosage of acid-inhibiting drug would affect the efficacy of these regimens. Acid-inhibiting drugs should be selected and applied reasonably according to the population and therapies. Adequate patient education plays a pivotal role in the eradication of H. pylori. In regions with accessible local research evidence, the 10-day empirical BQT regimen may be considered a preferred choice for H. pylori eradication.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori is the most prevalent chronic bacterial infection, with approximately half of the world's population estimated to be colonized. The World Health Organization (WHO) has classified Helicobacter pylori as a class-I carcinogen. All main society guidelines recommend its eradication in infected individuals. The global trend indicates that eradication rates are decreasing annually and the likelihood of eradication decreases with each unsuccessful therapeutic attempt. Resistance to antibiotics in H. pylori strains is the leading cause for eradication failure. Still, drug resistance and treatment failure may be complex, multi-dimensional and associated with several other factors. Knowledge of these factors can aid in optimizing eradication rates. This review will focus on the factors associated with refractory H. pylori, with a particular emphasis on antibiotic resistance mechanisms and their clinical implications. Also, the most recent literature and recommendations available for determining an appropriate regimen after the failure of the first attempt at eradication will be discussed.

A day-to-day management model improves patient compliance to treatment for Helicobacter pylori infection: a prospective, randomized controlled study. Gut Pathog 2023; 15:38. [PMID: 37518066 PMCID: PMC10388557 DOI: 10.1186/s13099-023-00556-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The day-to-day (DTD) management model encourages patients to actively participate in their healthcare by setting goals. We determined the effectiveness of the DTD model in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, as compared with conventional outpatient education (OE). METHODS We randomized 254 H. pylori-positive patients into a DTD group (127 patients) and an OE group (127 patients) prior to primary treatment with 14-day bismuth-containing quadruple therapy, including esomeprazole, amoxicillin, and clarithromycin. Both groups received consistent medication instructions. Patients in the DTD group recorded daily attendance after completing their daily medication plan from day 1 to day 14. The medication compliance, follow-up compliance, H. pylori eradication rates, and adverse events (AEs) were evaluated. RESULTS In the modified intention-to-treat (MITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses, the DTD group showed significantly higher medication compliance than the OE group (P = 0.001 and P = 0.031, respectively). Both the MITT and PP analyses showed significant differences in follow-up compliance (P < 0.001 and P = 0.003, respectively) and timing of the review urea breath test (P < 0.001 and P = 0.001, respectively) between the two groups. However, no significant differences were observed in the H. pylori eradication rates (95.8% vs. 93.8%, P = 0.529) in the PP analysis, or AEs incidence (25.4% vs. 28.3%, P = 0.603) between the two groups. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated the novel application of the DTD model in the treatment of H. pylori infection, which enabled patients to develop habitual medication-taking behaviors without physician intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To improve the eradication rate of H. pylori, researchers have investigated the role of WeChat-based mini-app as an electronic reminding system in H. pylori treatment. METHODS Subjects from three medical centers were divided into two groups. Patients in the daily mini-app-based notification system group received daily notifications via the WeChat mini-app. Patients in the control group received one-time verbal education on the first clinical visit. Both groups received a 14-day quadruple therapy to eradicate H. pylori infection. Eradication rate, compliance, adverse events and satisfaction were evaluated. RESULTS Both intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses were conducted. The eradication rate in the daily mini-app-based notification system group was slightly higher compared with the control group (ITT analysis: 76.70% vs. 70.73%, p = 0.312; PP analysis: 85.87% vs. 82.86%, p = 0.562). The compliance was significantly higher in the daily mini-app-based notification system group (ITT analysis: 85.52% vs. 70.48%, p = 0.028; PP analysis: 92.39% vs. 81.90%, p = 0.030). The adverse event rates were similar between the two groups (PP analysis: 36.96% vs. 40.95%, p = 0.566). No significant difference in eradication rate was seen in each subgroup analysis by age, place of residence, grade of education, or endoscopic findings. CONCLUSION The study showed that daily mini-app-based notification improved patient compliance but not H. pylori eradication rate. Trial registration The research was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2000031011, 21/03/2020).

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, a type-1 carcinogen, was closely associated with gastric cancer (GC). Successfully eradicating H. pylori infection could reduce the incidence of GC. China was a country with high incidence of GC and high prevalence of H. pylori infection. Nearly half of worldwide GC new cases and deaths attributed to H. pylori infection occurred in China. H. pylori prevalence varied over time with the improvement of socioeconomic status and sanitary conditions. The knowledge of antibiotic resistance rate in time was important to guide the clinical choice of antibiotics use in the regimens. With the publication of five Chinese consensus reports on the management of H. pylori infection and the effort of public preach of H. pylori-related knowledge, the standardization of H. pylori diagnosis and treatment by clinicians was improved. Bismuth-containing quadruple therapy was widely applied in clinical practice of H. pylori eradication because of high efficacy and safety. High-dose Proton Pump Inhibitor-amoxicillin dual therapy or vonoprazan-amoxicillin dual therapy showed comparable efficacy and lower side effects than bismuth-containing quadruple therapy, which were the alternative choice. The diagnosis rate of early GC was low and distinguishing Chinese GC risk population for the further endoscopy screening was important. Efforts have been done to establish prediction models to stratify GC risk in the Chinese GC risk population. We reviewed the current situation of the management of H. pylori infection and prevention and control of GC in China here.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (Hp) is a prevalent organism infecting almost half the global population. It is a significant concern, given its associated risk of gastric cancer, which is the third leading cause of cancer death globally. Infection can be asymptomatic or present with dyspeptic symptoms. It may also present with alarm symptoms in the case of progression to cancer. Diagnosis can be achieved non-invasively (breath tests, stool studies, or serology) or invasively (rapid urease test, biopsy, or culture). Treatment involves acid suppression and regimens containing several antibiotics and is guided by resistance rates. Eradication is essential, as it lowers the risk of complications and progression to cancer. Follow-up after eradication is similarly important, as the risk of cancer progression remains. There have been many recent advances in both diagnosis and treatment of Hp. In particular, biosensors may be effective diagnostic tools, and nanotechnology, vaccines, and potassium-competitive acid blockers may prove effective in enhancing eradication rates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a highly prevalent organism that can induce an inflammatory state in the upper gastrointestinal tract and lead to complications such as peptic ulcer and gastric cancer. The treatment regime is complicated, and mild-to-moderate adverse effects are common, making patient compliance a key determinant of successful eradication. One attractive strategy is to leverage on technology-enhanced communication (TEC) strategies. However, the current data on the efficacy of TEC modalities in improving H. pylori eradication are limited. This is the first meta-analysis evaluating its effectiveness to the best of our knowledge. Thus, it is essential to evaluate the current body of evidence to learn the impact of TEC initiatives. METHODS A literature search was done on PubMed, World of Science, and Embase. A total of 9 studies variably reported on compliance rate, eradication rate, adverse effect rate, symptom relief, patient satisfaction, treatment cost, patient disease awareness, and follow-up rates. RESULTS This meta-analysis showed that TEC initiatives significantly improve patient compliance (OR 4.52, 95% CI 2.09 - 9.77, p < .01) and eradication rate (OR 1.98, 95% CI 1.34 - 2.93, p < .01) but not adverse effect rate (OR 0.65, 95% CI [0.27 - 1.57], p = .34). Due to the small number of studies and population sample, patient satisfaction, symptom relief, treatment costs, disease awareness, and follow-up rates were assessed qualitatively. CONCLUSION TEC initiatives effectively improve compliance to the H. pylori eradication regime and increase the eradication rate.

METHODS Patients treated for H. pylori infection for the first time at our clinic from 1 July 2019 to 31 July 2021 were retrospectively included and divided into the CPE and WeChat groups. Both groups received CPE including verbal education and a specifically designed printout with detailed instructions. Those in the WeChat group were required to join a physician-managed WeChat group chat and they were encouraged to ask questions for clarification. Baseline characteristics were matched using propensity score matching between the two groups. Relevant knowledge and instructions were occasionally shared. Eradication rate, compliance, and adverse events in the two groups were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 348 patients were included after propensity score matching. Intention-to-treat analysis revealed eradication rate of 85.6% in the WeChat group and 80.5% in the CPE group (P = 0.199), whereas the per-protocol eradication rate was 91.1% and 88.2% (P = 0.399), respectively. Compliance did not differ between the two groups (WeChat group vs CPE group: 92.5% vs 91.4%, P = 0.693). The incidences of adverse events were also comparable between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS CPE utilization already yields fair H. pylori eradication rate; however, the WeChat-based patient-doctor interaction did not yield better results. More appropriate managements are needed in the future to explore the impact of the WeChat platform on H. pylori eradication.

Zha J, Li YY, Qu JY, Yang XX, Han ZX, Zuo X. Effects of enhanced education for patients with the Helicobacter pylori infection: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Helicobacter 2022; 27:e12880. [PMID: 35150600 DOI: 10.1111/hel.12880] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2021] [Revised: 01/22/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infections are of serious concern due to the associated risk of gastric cancer. However, many patients have poor medication and therapy compliance, which makes it difficult to eradicate their infections. This points to the need for stronger educational interventions aimed at enhancing compliance, thus increasing the potential for treatment success. As such, this study conducted a meta-analysis to clarify the effects of enhanced patient education (EPE) programs for H. pylori. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched electronic databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library) for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on health education for patients infected with H. pylori from inception to June 2021. The primary outcome was the eradication rate of H. pylori, while the secondary outcomes included the incidence of individual adverse symptoms, treatment compliance, clinical symptom remission after treatment, and patient satisfaction. We used the fixed or random-effects model to pool the risk ratio (RR), with 95% confidence interval. We also conducted sensitivity and subgroup analyses. RESULTS Our search returned seven relevant studies across a total of 1,433 patients. Compared with controls, EPE was significantly associated with improved H. pylori eradication rates (RR = 1.16, 95%CI: 1.04-1.29, p = 0.006) and patient compliance (RR = 1.48, 95%CI: 1.14-1.93, p = 0.003). A subgroup analysis also showed that EPE benefits were consistent across patients with different eradication programs, WeChat intervention plans, and intervention frequencies (p < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in the total adverse effects, common side effects (diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, taste disorder, and skin rash), or discontinuation rate (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Patient education is inexpensive, safe, and convenient. In this context, our findings suggest that enhanced educational interventions have positive effects on both the H. pylori eradication rate and adherence among infected patients, and thus constitute promising complements to clinical treatment regimens.

Zhou BG, Yan XL, Wan LY, Zhang Q, Li B, Ai YW. Effect of enhanced patient instructions on Helicobacter pylori eradication: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Helicobacter 2022; 27:e12869. [PMID: 35178810 DOI: 10.1111/hel.12869] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2021] [Revised: 12/05/2021] [Accepted: 12/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS To improve Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication rate, enhanced patient instructions (EPI) such as telephone-based re-education, short-message service, and Wechat have been proposed with conflicting results. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the effect of EPI on H. pylori eradication. METHODS The PROSPERO registered number of this study is CRD42021278536. PubMed, Embase, and CENTRAL database were searched to identify relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from inception to September 2021. Meta-analysis was performed to estimate the pooled relative risk (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) using a random-effects model. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was conducted to determine the robustness of the H. pylori eradication rate. RESULTS Nine RCTs were included. Compared with patients receiving only regular instructions, patients received EPI showed significantly higher H. pylori eradication rate (n = 8 RCTs, ITT analysis: RR = 1.20, 95% CI: 1.06-1.35; PP analysis: RR = 1.12, 95% CI:1.02-1.23) and better patient compliance (n = 8 RCTs, RR = 1.23, 95% CI: 1.09-1.39), as well as higher patient satisfaction (n = 3 RCTs, RR = 1.42, 95% CI: 1.14-1.76). However, there were no significant difference between groups in the incidence of total adverse events (n = 6 RCTs, RR = 0.66, 95%CI: 0.40-1.08) and symptom relief rates (n = 2 RCTs, RR = 1.17, 95% CI: 0.89-1.54). The TSA result indicated that the effect was robust. CONCLUSIONS Evidence from our meta-analysis shows that EPI intervention may be a promising strategy to improve H. pylori eradication rate, patient compliance, and patient satisfaction.

Susceptibility-Guided Therapy vs. Bismuth-Containing Quadruple Therapy as the First-Line Treatment for Helicobacter pylori Infection: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:844915. [PMID: 35402425 PMCID: PMC8987208 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.844915] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2021] [Accepted: 02/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The increased antibiotic resistance of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has led to the decreased efficacy of H. pylori regimens. Aim To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and compliance of susceptibility-guided therapy (SGT) vs. bismuth-containing quadruple therapy (BQT) as the first-line treatment for H. pylori infection. Materials and Methods This meta-analysis was performed in accordance with the PRISMA 2009 guidelines. A systematic search in PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases was conducted using the combination of “H. pylori or H. pylori or Hp,” “bismuth quadruple,” and “tailored eradication OR tailored therapy OR susceptibility-guided therapy OR personalized therapy OR antibiotic susceptibility testing.” Results Five studies with 2,110 H. pylori-infected patients were enrolled. The pooled eradication rates of SGT and BQT were 86 vs. 78% (p < 0.05) and 92 vs. 86% (p > 0.05) by intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses, respectively. SGT has a significantly superior efficacy than BQT [pooled risk ratio (RR) = 1.14, p < 0.05] in a subgroup of cultures with the susceptibility test. The pooled side effect rate was 20% in SGT and 22% in BQT, which showed no significant difference (p > 0.05). The compliances of SGT and BQT were 95 and 92%, respectively. Conclusion Compared with BQT, SGT showed a higher efficacy and similar safety as the first-line treatment of H. pylori infection in areas with high antibiotic resistance. The decision-making of first-line regimens for H. pylori infection should depend on the availability and cost-effectiveness of susceptibility tests and bismuth in local areas.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Helicobacter pylori infection is mostly a family-based infectious disease. To facilitate its prevention and management, a national consensus meeting was held to review current evidence and propose strategies for population-wide and family-based H. pylori infection control and management to reduce the related disease burden. METHODS Fifty-seven experts from 41 major universities and institutions in 20 provinces/regions of mainland China were invited to review evidence and modify statements using Delphi process and grading of recommendations assessment, development and evaluation system. The consensus level was defined as ≥80% for agreement on the proposed statements. RESULTS Experts discussed and modified the original 23 statements on family-based H. pylori infection transmission, control and management, and reached consensus on 16 statements. The final report consists of three parts: (1) H. pylori infection and transmission among family members, (2) prevention and management of H. pylori infection in children and elderly people within households, and (3) strategies for prevention and management of H. pylori infection for family members. In addition to the 'test-and-treat' and 'screen-and-treat' strategies, this consensus also introduced a novel third 'family-based H. pylori infection control and management' strategy to prevent its intrafamilial transmission and development of related diseases. CONCLUSION H. pylori is transmissible from person to person, and among family members. A family-based H. pylori prevention and eradication strategy would be a suitable approach to prevent its intra-familial transmission and related diseases. The notion and practice would be beneficial not only for Chinese residents but also valuable as a reference for other highly infected areas.

Yu J, Yang P, Qin X, Li C, Lv Y, Wang X. Impact of smoking on the eradication of Helicobacter pylori. Helicobacter 2022; 27:e12860. [PMID: 34708484 DOI: 10.1111/hel.12860] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2021] [Revised: 10/11/2021] [Accepted: 10/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Although the association between the eradication of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and smoking has been confirmed through a meta-analysis, many new studies have reported inconsistent conclusions. An up-to-date meta-analysis based on published relevant studies was conducted in this study to address this issue. METHODS Eligible studies up to January 2021 were screened and retrieved using PubMed and Web of Science as well as by performing a manual review of references. We calculated the pooled odd ratios (OR) with the 95% confidence interval (CI). Subgroup and sensitivity analyses were also performed. Begg's test was used to determine the publication bias. RESULTS In total, 39 studies were included in the meta-analysis. The results showed that smoking increases the failure rate of H. pylori eradication treatment (OR = 1.70, 95%CI, 1.49-1.93). The risk of failure also increases with an increase in the smoking dose (>5 cigarettes per day) (OR = 2.59, 95%CI, 1.28-5.24) and the current smoking status (continued to smoke during treatment) (OR = 2.49, 95%CI, 1.52-4.06). Studies with a large proportion of patients with peptic ulcer (OR = 2.14, 95%CI, 1.51-3.02) revealed a higher failure rate among smokers than those with a low proportion of patients with peptic ulcer (OR = 1.57, 95%CI, 1.36-1.81). When vonoprazan (VPZ) was used to treat H. pylori infection, smoking did not affect the eradication rate (OR = 0.94, 95%CI, 0.51-1.75). CONCLUSION Smoking increases the failure rate of H. pylori eradication treatment. The risk of H. pylori eradication failure in smokers increases with a current smoking status and a high smoking dose. However, when VPZ is used to treat the H. pylori infection, smoking has no effect on the eradication rate.

METHODS A total of 120 patients suffering from chronic heart failure with cardiac function grade III-IV, under the classification of the New York Heart Association, were admitted to our hospital in May 2017. In January 2020, they were divided into two groups: A control group (with routine nursing intervention) and an observation group (with WeChat platform-based health management intervention). Changes in cardiac function, 6-min walking distance (6MWD), high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTnT), and N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) were detected in both groups. The Self-Care Ability Scale (ESCA) score, Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire score, and compliance score were used to evaluate self-management ability, quality of life, and compliance of the two groups. During a follow-up period of 12 mo, the occurrence of cardiovascular adverse events in both the groups was counted.
RESULTS The left ventricular ejection fraction, stroke output, and 6MWD increased, and the hs-cTnT and NT-proBNP decreased in both the groups, as compared to those before the intervention. Further, cardiac function during the 6MWD, hs-cTnT, and NT-proBNP improved significantly in the observation group after intervention (P < 0.05). The scores of self-care responsibility, self-concept, self-care skills, and self-care health knowledge in the observation group were higher than those of the control group before intervention, and their ESCA scores were significantly improved after intervention (P < 0.05). The Minnesota heart failure quality of life (LiHFe) scores of physical restriction, disease symptoms, psychological emotion, social relations, and other items were decreased compared to those of the control group before intervention, and the LiHFe scores of the observation group were significantly improved compared to those of the control group (P < 0.05). With intervention, the compliance scores of rational diet, regular medication, healthy behavior, and timely reexamination were increased, thereby leading to the compliance scores of the observation group being significantly improved compared to those of the control group (P < 0.05). During the 12 mo follow-up, the incidence rates of acute myocardial infarction and cardiogenic rehospitalization in the observation group were lower than those of the control group, and the hospitalization time in the observation group was shorter than that of the control group, but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSION WeChat platform-based health management can improve the self-care ability and compliance of patients with severe chronic heart failure, improve the cardiac function and related indexes, reduce the occurrence of cardiovascular adverse events, and enable the avoidance of rehospitalization.

Abstract
Social media has made a noteworthy impact in health care both in public health efforts as well as transforming how physicians connect and exchange ideas. Learning how to navigate and leverage social media across multiple platforms is becoming increasingly difficult with more platforms and features constantly being introduced. Different physicians working in the same field will have different purposes behind getting on social media, but each physician plays a different role within this social media ecosystem. This article aims to identify the common benefits of health care social media use as well as navigate the unfortunate pitfalls of social media use.

Abstract
The purpose of this CPU Expert Review is to provide clinicians with guidance on the management of Helicobacter pylori after an initial attempt at eradication therapy fails, including best practice advice on specific regimen selection, and consideration of patient and systems factors that contribute to treatment efficacy. This Expert Review is not a formal systematic review, but is based upon a review of the literature to provide practical advice. No formal rating of the strength or quality of the evidence was carried out. Accordingly, a combination of available evidence and consensus-based expert opinion were used to develop these best practice advice statements.

Abstract
A complete understanding and good adherence are crucial for successful Helicobacter pylori eradication. Proper frequency of reminders might be helpful to both doctors and patients to maintain adherence during treatment. The study was to evaluate the influence of an intensive follow-up system based on a clinical database on H. pylori eradication therapy. A total of 196 eligible patients were equally and randomly divided into an intensive follow-up group and a control group. Both groups were administered bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for 14 days. Patients in the intensive follow-up group were informed of pre-treatment, including the duration and potential adverse events. Subsequently, they received telephone follow-ups on days 3 and 14 and 3 days before the urea breath test (UBT). The time points were automatically reminded by a follow-up system in the established clinical database. The control group was only informed of pre-treatment information. UBT was performed 4 weeks after treatment in both groups to assess the presence of H. pylori. The eradication rate, patient compliance, and adverse events were calculated and compared. The H. pylori eradication rates of the intensive follow-up and control groups were 94.7% (90/95, 95% CI: 90%-99%) and 92.9% (78/84, 95% CI: 87%-98%), respectively, by PP analysis (p = 0.601), and 91.8% (90/98, 95% CI: 86%-97%) and 81.6% (80/98, 95% CI: 74%-89%) by ITT analysis (p = 0.035). Adverse events occurred in 9 intensive follow-up group patients and 12 in the control group. Adherence was 96.9% (95/98) in the intensive follow-up group and 85.7% (84/98) in the control group. Semi-automatic intensive follow-up contributed to a higher eradication rate and adherence to H. pylori treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Gastroenterologists and many general internists and primary care physicians confront questions regarding the management of Helicobacter pylori on a daily basis. The subject remains of global interest and continue to generate debate and research. Using the search terms 'pylori and treatment' or 'pylori and management' we identified over 1000 relevant articles in PubMed published over the time period 1 January 2019 to 30 April 2020. We have selected the most highly clinically relevant of these to review here. RECENT FINDINGS Clinical evidence grows regarding the benefits of H. pylori eradication on gastric cancer prevention. High rates of resistance to clarithromycin and levofloxacin, correlating with treatment failure in regimens utilizing these drugs, has stimulated interest in alternative regimens as well as the need for susceptibility testing of individual patients and populations. Although many aspects of H. pylori management are well established, implementation of appropriate testing and treatment pathways remains suboptimal throughout healthcare settings. SUMMARY Increased emphasis on measuring H. pylori-related clinical outcomes in practice is needed to identify implementation gaps, and to suggest means to best apply the knowledge gained on H. pylori for the prevention of gastric symptoms and disease.
