Core Tip This study investigates the influence of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) exposure on the diagnosis of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) gastritis in patients undergoing endoscopic gastric biopsies. The study findings revealed that in patients undergoing gastric biopsies, the use of PPIs promotes the diagnosis of non-H. pylori gastritis, is associated with lower H. pylori densities and to increased risk of intestinal metaplasia as compared with subjects with no PPI exposure. These findings should urge health-care professionals to consider the possibility of underdiagnosed H. pylori gastritis in patients exposed to PPI.
