Meta Analysis
[Eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection in Europe: a meta-analysis based on congress abstracts, 1997-2002].
Meta-analyses evaluated several aspects of Helicobacter pylori eradication based on the randomised controlled trials. ⋯ The pooled eradication rate of the primary proton pump inhibitor/ranitidine bismuth citrate-based triple regimens are comparable with the results of meta-analyses. H2 blocker-based triple and proton pump inhibitor-based double regimens are of lower efficacy. Quadruple regimens were not better than triple therapies. The eradication rates per country varied, approaching 80% in most places. The results confirm in part post-hoc the validity of the Maastricht consensus recommendations.
