Effects of probiotic bifiform on efficacy of Helicobacter pylori infection treatment

摘要

AIM: To study effects of the probiotic bifiform on efficacy of Helicobacter pylori (HP) eradication in patients with chronic gastritis and ulcer disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 98 patients with verified HP infection were divided into two groups. The study group received a week three-component anti-HP therapy+a probiotic. The control group received the same treatment without the probiotic. All the patients were tested for HP before the treatment and one month after the end of the treatment. Cell composition of duodenal mucosa (DM), tissue proinflammatory cytokines, secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) in coprofiltrates, serum IgA, IgM, IgG, phagocytic parameters and copromicrobiology were studied. RESULTS: HP eradication rate in the study group was higher than in the control group (89.1 vs 63.5, respectively, p < 0.05). After the treatment, patients of the study group had lower rates of side effects, impaired intestinal biocenosis, tissue cytokines levels but higher concentration of plasmatic cells in CO and cIgA in coprofiltrates. CONCLUSION: The addition of probiotic bifiform to the standard three-component antihelicobacter scheme of the treatment raises its efficacy and is promising treatment of HP. Mechanisms of a potentiating action of the probiotic are related to enhancement of antibacterial activity of local immune reactions.
