Gastric cancer and <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> : a combined analysis of 12 case control studies nested within prospective cohorts

Gut · 2001 · Vol. 49(3) · pp. 347–353

Abstract

These results suggest that 5.9 is the best estimate of the relative risk of non-cardia cancer associated with H pylori infection and that H pylori does not increase the risk of cardia cancer. They also support the idea that when H pylori status is assessed close to cancer diagnosis, the magnitude of the non-cardia association may be underestimated.
