Abstract excerpt
The aim of the present study was to correlate molecular evidence of the presence of Helicobacter pylori in gastric biopsy samples, based on analysis of 16S rDNA, vacuolating toxin (vacA), urease A (ureA) and cagA genes, with the clinical, histological and serological findings in patients with H....
