Core Tip |
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a bacterium acquired mainly in childhood that increases the risk of developing certain gastric diseases. However, the main complications are noticed predominantly in adulthood. This can be explained based on the gastric inflammatory pattern against the pathogen, which changes as long as the infected individual gets older, favoring, during childhood, the persistence of the infection and then, in adulthood, the gastric damage. This article discusses the factors that can influence the gastric inflammatory pattern in individuals infected with H. pylori. |
