Is short-term therapy really sufficient to eradicate Helicobacter pylori infection?
摘    要:Objective:The aim of our study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the efficacy of short-term protocols for Helicobacter pylori eradication and to review the safety and adverse profiles of these eradication protocols.Methods:Literatures were located through electronic searches by PubMed,Medline,ISI Web of Knowledge,and Cochrane Library using the relevant terms.Abstracts of important meetings were searched manually in some journal supplements.Additional bibliographies were identified from the reference lists of identified studies.Three independent reviewers systemically identified randomized controlled trials(RCTs) comparing short-duration protocols vs.7-d proton pump inhibitor(PPI)-based triple protocols,as well as studies reporting eradication rates of short-duration protocols for H.pylori.Summary effect size was calculated as relative risk(RR) and 95% confidence intervals(CI) using Review Manager 4.2,and P0.05 was defined as statistically significant in all analyses.Results:Among 90 abstracts retrieved,15 studies were analyzed,including a total of 30 treatment regimens with 1856 subjects.Mean intention-to-treat(ITT) cure rates of 63.2% and 81.3% were achieved with short-term protocols and 7-d PPI-containing protocols,respectively.Per-protocol(PP)-based overall cure rates were 66.6% and 86.1%,respectively.Short-term therapy was inferior to 7-d triple regimen(P0.00001).After sub-analysis,however,comparing the effects of ≥3-d protocols and 7-d triple protocols,the cumulative ITT RR was 0.95(P=0.26),and PP RR was 0.95(P=0.10),without significant heterogeneity.Moreover,slightly fewer adverse-effects were found in short-term protocols.Conclusions:Although more economical,short-duration protocols are inferior to 7-d PPI-based triple protocols with regarding to eradication rate of H.pylori.Protocols of more than 3 d,however,may be equivalent to 7-d protocols.
