Background
The success rate of clarithromycin‐containing Helicobacter pylori treatment had declined globally. This study aims to explore the role of different machine learning algorithms in predicting failure of H. pylori treatment.
Materials and Methods
We included 84,609 adult patients who had received the first course of clarithromycin‐containing triple therapy for H. pylori in Hong Kong from...
Background
To investigate risks of hospitalization for upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) in H. pylori‐eradicated patients newly started on warfarin or direct oral anti‐coagulants (DOACs).
Methods
We identified all patients who had previously received H. pylori eradication therapy or were found to have no H. pylori on endoscopy and were then newly started on warfarin or DOACs from a population‐based...
Background
Failure rates of clarithromycin‐containing triple therapy for H. pylori are rising. To determine the trend of failure rates of clarithromycin‐containing triple therapy in different age groups in Hong Kong over the past 15 years.
Materials and Methods
This is a population‐based retrospective age‐period‐cohort study involving all adult H. pylori‐infected patients who had received the first...
