Helicobacter py/ori infection is causally related to chronic type-B gastritis, and may also be associated with an increased risk of gastric carcinoma. Vacuolating cytotoxin, which is an 87-kDa protein secreted by H. pylori, induces eukaryotic cell vacuolation in vitro. To determine whether there is
## Abstract A positive family history is an increased risk factor for gastric cancer within family members, and one of the possible causes of this is the intrafamilial clustering of __Helicobacter pylori__ infection. Our study examined the prevalence of __H. pylori__ infection, serum antibodies to
## Abstract A total of 5,209 asymptomatic, middleβaged subjects, whose serum pepsinogen (PG) and __Helicobacter pylori__ antibody levels had been assessed, were followed for 10 years. Subjects with positive serum __H. pylori__ antibodies (>50 U/mL) had an increased cancer risk (HR = 3.48, 95% CI =
## Abstract The prediction of __Helicobacter pylori__ antibodies immunoglobulin A (IgA) and immunoglobulin G (IgG) and serum pepsinogen I (PG I) on gastric cancer occurrence was studied in a nested caseβcontrol study, based on 225 incident cancer cases and 435 matched controls from a Finnish cohort
