Systematic review with meta‐analysis: association between Helicobacter pylori CagA seropositivity and odds of inflammatory bowel disease
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Accumulating data support a protective role of Helicobacter pylori against inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), which might be mediated by strain-specific constituents, specifically cagA expression.
AIM: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to more clearly define the association between CagA seropositivity and IBD.
