basis for metronidazole (Mtz) and clarithromycin (Cla) resistance in strains of Helicobacter …

Abstract Objectives Drug resistance of Helicobacter pylori is a major clinical problem
worldwide. The objective of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of antibiotic …

Metronidazole (MNZ) is administered as first-line antibiotic for Helicobacter pylori
eradication therapy; however, increasing resistance to MNZ impaired the efficacy. Increasing …

The high prevalence of antibiotic resistance in Helicobacter pylori has become a great
challenge in Iran. The genetic mutations that contribute to the resistance have yet to be …

AIM: To examine the frequency of antibiotic resistance in Iranian Helicobacter pylori (H
pylori) strains isolated from two major hospitals in Tehran. METHODS: Examination of …

Background and aims: The genotypic method could significantly shorten the time needed to
obtain antibiotic susceptibility data for Helicobacter pylori. The aim of this study was to …

To investigate the antibiotic resistance of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in outpatients and to
explore the consistency between genotype and phenotype of H. pylori antibiotic resistance …

Current management of gastric inflammation involves the eradication of Helicobacter pylori.
However, the effectiveness of commonly used antibiotics against H. pylori infection has …

In clinical Helicobacter pylori isolates, metronidazole resistance has been associated with
mutations in the rdxA and frxA genes. The aim of this study was to examine the role of the …

Objective: This study is trying to describe the mutational mechanisms of metronidazole
resistance in H. pylori in our clinical isolates in Isfahanian patients, Iran and compare with …
