Abstract

The prevalent rate of Helicobacter infections among the human population is reducing in the developed world, but constant migration, general globalization, and other environmental factors have kept every population at risk. This puts a question on the seemingly progress made so far in the treatment and eradication of these bacteria and their infections. This communication is aimed at clinical and epidemiological gains and the challenges so far in the treatment and eradication of helicobacter spp. infections.

 

Keywords

helicobacter spp.; infections; human population; bacteria; eradication.
