Core Tip	Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has been implicated in the development of gastric cancer and its eradication is widely accepted as a treatment approach. However, recent research indicates that H. pylori may also play a role in maintaining the balance of gastroesophageal junction cells and could potentially have a protective effect against esophageal cancer (EC). Previous meta-analyses have shown that the relationship between H. pylori and the risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma or esophageal adenocarcinoma varies across different regions. This manuscript discusses a recent study by López-Gómez et al. Additionally, an updated meta-analysis focusing on the potential link between H. pylori and EC in Asian populations has been conducted to offer more precise clinical recommendations for countries like China and other Asian nations.
