Core Tip	López-Gómez et al provided evidence of a very low prevalence of previous Helicobacter pylori infection in a Spanish cohort of patients with esophageal carcinoma, and most of those patients had previously received or concomitantly received proton pump inhibitors treatment. However, more studies (such as prospective studies or Mendelian randomization studies) are still needed to confirm the causal relationship between them in the future.
