Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Helicobacter pylori is increasingly compromising eradication therapies worldwide. Despite growing concern, comprehensive global genomic analyses integrating resistance determinants, geographic distribution, and evolutionary patterns remain limited. METHODS: A total of 6876 high-quality H. pylori genomes collected from 85 countries between 1900 and 2024 were analyzed....
